Idk what am I doing wrong
I don't. Have you looked at the AppleALC wiki to see which IDs that might need? https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs

ALC294 Messy Audio (Crackles, Boops & more) Comet Lake Hackintosh
I have a Comet Lake laptop (i7-10510U & UHD 620) with the ALC294 Audio Card. I've tried all of the layout ID's listed on https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs. But all of them sound the same. I'm also using macOS Monterey... Any fix?

MacOS stuck on an apple logo with progress bar.
Do not enter the digits of your audio codec as your alcid. For example: "alcid=298" (ALC298). Use appropriate alcids from the AppleALC wiki: https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs

My first ever Hackintosh!!!! (on Microsoft Surface laptop go)
Use linux to find out your audio codec (ALC...) and use this to narrow down the layout ids you could use. Try all of them and see which one works. Good luck!

How do i install alc-verb and use dump-coeff script?
So..i have a Lenovo Legion 7i Laptop with Realtek ALC287 audio codec, i've used layout-id 11 and 21, (21 seems to be better, since an internal and external mic device seems to be appearing on the System Preferences) however, although slider, volume, works...i still got no audio (both input and output), been surfing around and got to this link : https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Dumping-processing-coefficients

AppleALC Layout 28 issues with ALC1220-VB on Gigabyte Z490 Aorus Master
I tried to patch AppleHDA manually by following a guide posted here https://github.com/F0x1c/AppleALC_Instructions, but I couldn't get it done since the convert script was unavailable. However, I got the codec dumped from Ubuntu Linux and was able to create the SVG graph, all attached below.
