Conexant CX20724 ISST Audio - AppleALC, , layout ID 13

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!

Gigabyte Z790 / Intel i9 13900K / Radeon RX 550 / Ventura
Sound: I use an USB sound card so this is not a big deal for me but the onboard sound does not work. I tried AppleALC.kext together with any of the layout ids for the ALC897 from this list but nada. I also very rarely noticed some stuttering on the USB speakers. Not sure what this was about.

Finally in a good place and found something odd (just a couple more tweaks to go).
For audio you will need the REaltek audio kext. And use the appropriate layout id in boot arg for it to work with ALC1220. https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/releases

OpenCore 0.8.2 released! 🎉🎉👏
There was a bug with the first release of AppleALC v1.7.3 today that caused a crash at boot. A corrected build of 1.7.3 was posted later today that fixed that and everything is now working fine for me.

Still noise headphone jack noise on the T450
I also edited the boot-args under NVRAM in the config.plist where I tested all of the id's (layout 12, 15, 18, 28, 32, 55, 59) as found in the supported codes table on github (https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs)

Is there a guide on how to compile AppleALC?
Not sure if This is what you're looking for, or not.. I was going to follow up on your other post today. I think the Dock I have is broken, I wasn't able to get any Audio working on it at all. Tried an X230T and a T530, no sound in the dock in any OS.

Asus B360M - i3 9100F - RX 550 - Sabrent Rocket - Fenvi T919 - Ventura 13.3.1
Precisely, I went through the guide once more, discovered some new tools (like USBToolBox for example) then I did USB mapping + SSDTs (using SSDTTime) by hand (I was not sure that I did them properly in the first place, 3 years ago). Then with those clean SSDTs & kext, I used my old EFI and OCAT to merge everything together. Double checked everything at the end just to be sure that I did not forget a thing and that OCAT did not mess up anything.

[HELP] Intel HD 630 Hardware Acceleration in Ventura and cannot boot without -igfxvesa [DELL VOSTRO 3268] OpenCore 0.9.0
It's a must though. Every PC is different, even 2 identical models might not have the same ACPI tables.. I would Start here.. There's only a few things you'll really need, especially on these machines. While there's many methods, a clean install of windows NOT booted through OpenCore, using SSDTime is the easiest for most.

Hackintosh USB freezes while loading
try mapping usb drive on windows first using USBToolBox as USBInjectAll isn't fully working anymore on Monterey. Also I suggest creating your own SSDT/acpi patches via SSDTTime.

HP 250 G8 macOS Monterey 12.3 restarts at shutdown
I deduced (since it is not mentioned in the guide) that I need the original DSDT.aml file from my laptop. I managed to get it using SSDTTime in Windows 10.

Lenovo T530. BigSur 11.6.4/OC 0.7.8
Can't emphasize enough for anyone new - take the time and get a basic understanding of how ACPI tables work. Tools used - OpenCore 0.7.8, ProperTree, ssdtprgen, iASL (MaciASL), SSDTTime, and Hackintool for exploring the Hardware and IOReg. i'm averaging 2:45 on battery; for reference - it's roughly 4 in Windows, and less than 2 in Kubuntu 22.04

To generate all *.aml files you need SSDTime tool. Start executable. To generate files select these options:

From Windows run ssdtimer and grab all the files.

HELP ME, Hackintosh stuck on boot
1- When you generate SSDT-HPET with SSDT-Time, it will give you .aml file and patch.plist, So Patches in plist and SSDT-HPET.aml should be used together (You should copy patches Under ACPI > Patch section of your Config.plist)
What are some alternatives?
