X1 Carbon Gen 7`** (or, as I like to say, **Lenovo ThinkTosh X1C7** 😎).\n\n**INTRO:** This project was created for people who are interested in seeing how it would be if we could implement **`MacOS`** on a laptop that wasn't manufactured by _Apple_ and could be used like a **`MacBook`** by spending less (**a lot less!**) or even reusing your laptops for productivity, programming, work, entertainment, enthusiasts, etc.\n\nSince late 2023, I've been working to understand how I can develop a way to implement **`MacOS`** on the **`Lenovo ThinkPad X1`** (especially the _7th Gen version_), and since then, I've been enhancing the core of the project (`config.plist`) to make the experience as good as possible without encountering problems or experiencing lagging. If you need help with any problem that appears, please visit.

Remember that each **SMBIOS** is unique, and because of that, I won't share my full **SMBIOS**.\n\n1. First, download the [GenSMBIOS](https://github.com/corpnewt/GenSMBIOS) generator; \n2. Unzip the files where you can easily access them and open the `GenSMBIOS.bat` file;\n3. Click on option 3. Here, the app will download additional packages and, once it finishes, it will shows another screen called *\"Generate SMBIOS\"*;\n4. [Access this page](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/extras/smbios-support.html#how-to-decide) to choose the best **SMBIOS** that you want to use. In my case, I'm using the **`MacBookPro16,3`** **SMBIOS**;\n5. Then, an entire **SMBIOS** config will be generated. Copy all the information to Notepad or a similar text editor.\n\nFinished! Now you have your own **SMBIOS** config to proceed to the next step! 🚧🏃‍♂️\n### Editing the configuration file\n\nNow, you need to place the information that you copied from **`genSMBIOS`** to you `config.plist`. In this example, we're gonna use the **`ProperTree`** app.\n\n1. Download [ProperTree](https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree) app and unzip it in the easy directory;\n1. Download all the files of this repository and unzip them in an easily accessible directory.\n2. Open the `ProperTree.bat` file and minimize the **`cmd prompt`**. We don't need it and won't use it. **Remember not to close the `cmd prompt`, just minimize it**!\n3. Once ProperTree is open, click on _File \u003e Open_ and navigate to the path where you unzipped this repository and open the `config.plist` file (it's located in _EFI/OC/config.plist_).\n4. A lot of information will pop up on your screen. To make this more manageable, right-click on the `Root` node and select _“Collapse Children”_.\n5. Now, you need to navigate to the path where you will place all the **SMBIOS** information. Click on _PlatformInfo \u003e Generic_ and here are the fields you will fill in:\n\n| MLB | String | Board Serial |\n| ------------------ | ------ | ------------ |\n| ROM | Data | Apple Room |\n| SystemProductName | String | Type |\n| SystemSerialName | String | Serial |\n| SystemUUID | String | SmUUID |\n\nThere we have it! You've finished the `config.plist` configuration.\n### Downloading MacOS Sonoma 14\n\nNow, this is one of the most important steps to do. You will need to download the MacOS image recovery in order to be able to boot up the system on your laptop. An important note to take is that all image paths written inside the `recovery_url.txt` file are legitimate and directly pulled from Apple's domain. So, you don't need to worry about customized or malicious images downloaded via the **`macrecovery`** app.\n\n1. Download [OpenCorePkg](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg) and extract the **`macrecovery`** utility from _Utilities \u003e macrecovery_ into an easily accessible directory on your PC.\n2. Now, you can do this in two ways:\n 1. Access the folder where you unzipped the file (e.g., _`J:\\macrecovery`_), click on the **File** button in the upper-left corner, and select **`Open Windows PowerShell`** or **`Open Command Prompt`** (depending on how your PC is configured).\n 2. Open **`Command Prompt`** or **`PowerShell`** by right-clicking on the Windows logo and then typing the path where you unzipped the files (e.g., _`cd J:\\macrecovery`_).\n3. Once the terminal is configured in the **`macrecovery`** directory, you will need to paste one of the commands below to download the **MacOS Sonoma** image recovery and wait until it finishes:\n\n\t```python\n\tpython3 ./macrecovery.py -b Mac-937A206F2EE63C01 -m 00000000000000000 download\n\t```\n\t\n\t```python\n\tpython3 ./macrecovery.py -b Mac-7BA5B2D9E42DDD94 download\n\t```\n4. When the download has finished, you will notice that two files were downloaded (`BaseSystem.chunklist` and `BaseSystem.dmg`).\n\nWell done! Now, you're gonna jump to the final step before trying the first boot up.\n### Preparing your flash drive BOOT\n\nAlright, once you have your `config.plist` configured and have downloaded the image recovery, it's time to set up your _flash drive_ (or _pen drive_) to complete this configuration method.\n\n1. Choose your preferred _flash drive_ (or _pen drive_) that will be used in this case. Remember that the device needs to have at least **1GiB** to store all files (I recommend using one with **2GiB** or higher for safekeeping).\n2. Format the device with the **FAT32** file system. Otherwise, **you won't be able to boot it on your laptop**!\n3. Format options: Quick Format. You can use this option or not. It doesn't matter.\n4. Volume Label: `tempEFI` (optional name to identify).\n5. When the _flash drive_ (_pen drive_) has been formatted successfully, copy the `EFI` folder that contains the `BOOT` and `OC` folders, respectively (this is the folder where you edited the `config.plist` file!).\n6. Then, create a folder named `com.apple.recovery.boot` outside of the EFI folder, and copy and paste the two files that were downloaded by **`macrecovery`** in the previous step (`BaseSystem.chunklist` and `BaseSystem.dmg`).\n7. Make a _check-in_ to ensure that you correctly have two folders on your _flash drive_ (_pen drive_): `EFI` and `com.apple.recovery.boot`.\n\nCongratulations, you have completed all the steps successfully! Let's now make some configurations in the **UEFI** on your laptop! 🎖\n### Configuring UEFI\n\nThis step may vary depending on your **`ThinkPad`** model, **UEFI** version, region, etc. Below, there will be two options to choose from:\n\n1. The most common configuration found in various GitHub repositories;\n2.

Download [MountEFI](https://github.com/corpnewt/MountEFI) and install it on you machine;\n2. Then, click on the _Finder_ option on the taskbar and select _“Preferences”_. On the General tab, check the _Hard disks_ option and close the window.\n3. The **MacOS HD** folder will appear in the upper-right corner. Right-click on it and select _“MountEFI”_, type your password (if configured), copy the **EFI** folder from the flash drive, and paste it inside the **EFI** folder on your SSD (if the **EFI** folder contains another folder, delete it and paste the **EFI** folder. Only this folder needs to stay there).\n4. Close all windows, remove your flash drive, and restart the system. You will notice that **`MacOS`** can now boot up without needing the flash drive.\n\nCongratulations, you have completed all the steps. Now, enjoy your machine! 🕹\n## POST\n\n### Trackpad\n\nTo improve the Trackpad in **`macOS`**, you have to disable `Force Click and haptic feedback` in *System Preferences -\u003e Trackpad*.\n### SMBIOS\n\nLike I said before, I won't share my full **SMBIOS**. But, you can use [GenSMBIOS](https://github.com/corpnewt/GenSMBIOS) to create your own **SMBIOS**. Here is the common **SMBIOS** used for everyone:\n\n- `MacBookPro16,3` - What I used\n- `MacBookPro16,2` - Used by others\n\n**Note:** If you use a different **SMBIOS** model than the `MacbookPro16,3` that I've used. The provided USB mapping will not work. You will need to edit the `USBMap.kext` file. You can right click on the file and select **Show Package Contents**. From there you can open the Info.plist file in ProperTree and change `MacBookPro16,3` to whatever Model ID you've chosen. This should provide a working **`USBMap.kext`**.\n### Audio\n\nUsing the `Layout ID 71` will enable the 4 speakers (top front \u0026 bottom rear) in *System Preferences \u003e Sound* allowing you to select either set of speakers (Two Output). To combine the two you'll need to open **`Audio MIDI Setup`** and create `Multi-Output Device` with both sets of speakers. Unfortunately you can't control natively the volume of an Aggregate Device with the volume keys. You'll need to install [AggregateVolumeMenu](https://github.com/adaskar/AggregateVolumeMenu)\n\n## Credits\n\n### Other repositories\n\nMany thanks to those who made it possible to _hackintosh_ my laptop and provided the library for this **`ThinkPad`** series:\n\n- **X1C8-hackintosh repositories:**\n\t- [HJebbour/ThinkPad-X1C8-Hackintosh](https://github.com/HJebbour/ThinkPad-X1C8-Hackintosh)\n- **X1C7-hackintosh repositories:**\n\t- [seven-of-eleven/Lenovo-ThinkPad-X1C7-OC-Hackintosh](https://github.com/seven-of-eleven/Lenovo-ThinkPad-X1C7-OC-Hackintosh);\n\t- [aidanchandra/x1c7-hackintosh](https://github.com/aidanchandra/x1c7-hackintosh)\n\t- [huyhoang8398/x1c7-hackintosh-20R1](https://github.com/huyhoang8398/x1c7-hackintosh-20R1)\n\t- [EequalsMCsquare/ThinkPad-X1C7-OpenCore](https://github.com/EequalsMCsquare/ThinkPad-X1C7-OpenCore)\n- **X1C6-hackintosh repositories:**\n\t- [tylernguyen/x1c6-hackintosh](https://github.com/tylernguyen/x1c6-hackintosh)\n\t- [benbender/x1c6-hackintosh](https://github.com/benbender/x1c6-hackintosh)\n\t- [zhtengw/EFI-for-X1C6-hackintosh](https://github.com/zhtengw/EFI-for-X1C6-hackintosh)\n\n### Folks\n\nI wanna thanks this folks that contributed a lot with the idea of bring **`MacOS`** to our **`ThinkPad`** devices:\n\n- [@benbender](https://github.com/benbender) for your hardwork.
