EASY USB Port Mapping on Intel Hackintosh 2020

[@jjdizz1l]

OMG FINALLY! You don't know how long I have been trying to figure this out! Great job, TechNolli.

[@WarriorsPhoto]

Hackintool or...?

[@jjdizz1l]

ricky v, USB Mapping. I am on AMD and just needed a little help. This cleared up some dark spots in my mind.

[@WarriorsPhoto]

Dizziee Ahhh 😌 okay 👌.

[@zuur303]

Can't wait for the AMD version. Hope it's as easy to follow as this one. Great work!

Calming, simple to understand and easy to follow! Thank you for making this "arduous" process so easy to do! Kudos!

[@nongsung]

FYI, I have built a number of hackintoshes over the years (clover) and never achieved a fully functioning system. Always small niggling problems, flaky USB, no wifi/Bluetooth etc. This time I followed some of your opencore videos where I also noticed your Wifi/BT card (ordered and delivered this afternoon) and this one about USB mapping. Result: a fully functioning system. A BIG THANK YOU!

[@khal3d82]

Excellent Work 👍👍👍👍. I can’t wait to see your next AMD Ryzen USB mapping video.

[@elliotcho4823]

Great video! I'm looking forwards to the AMD version, as I'm just about to build a Ryzen based Hackintosh. Thanks, as I find these videos very helpful!

Very nice!!! Thank you! - I am still and again buffled by the fact that you can record your screen without even having logged in yet!!! You're a magician in so many ways!!!

[@memphismarkmusic56]

This is absolutely fabulous Technolli. In fact your whole channel is freakin fantastic. Wish I'd found you sooner. Have a hack running Mojave clover. Spent all day watching your videos. Never understood the Hackintosh build process. Built the hardware myself. But had the hack config done for me. Port mapping seemed like black magic. You're so laid back and easy to understand. I'm doing an opencore Catalina install. Thank you so much for your channel and all that you do for FREE. Delighted.

[@gmgelvosa]

Looking forward to the Ryzen version.

[@vojtechhejsek8576]

I did the exact method on Ryzen some time ago and it worked perfectly. The thing is to make sure you've got up to 15 ports and to keep in mind that USB 3 ports are technically two ports (USB 2.0 and USB 3.X)

[@WaterShowsProd]

@@vojtechhejsek8576 Does this help at all with the Sleep issue on a Ryzen Hackintosh?

[@WarriorsPhoto]

Me three.

[@tamaica7770]

Vojtěch Hejsek how did you do 2 technical usb ports on AMD? What method did you use ? And can you point me to a guide for it?

[@trailheadmedia5578]

So what do you do when Hackintool isn't showing any highlighted ports, or changing to show when you plug something in?

[@Hannes180]

For me it helped to leave the XhciPortLimit to false before reboot.

[@ericxu7023]

thanks so much for this easy-to-understand tutorial, it did help a lot. I still have one question: how did you figure out that HS12 is for your Bluetooth card?

Hi Technolli. Thanks for your work! When will you make the AMD USB tutorial? Also since 11.3 USBInjectall is not working anymore. Maybe you should update the tutorial.

[@Triquifliqui]

Thanks again man! I followed this and made my Fenvi bluetooth work, I wonder if you add that to the keywords of the video, you would get even more views. I tried USB mapping with USBmap before and the Broadcom wasn't showing at all, used Hackintool as in this video and worked like a charm, not only did I see the card but also worked plug and play. Again Thanks! I'll share this video in a couple of threads I read about fence bluetooth not working, if they follow the vanilla instructions they'll never see it.

[@RikbasuOfficial]

Could you please help with thunderbolt 3 port mapping

[@alexanderjacob1008]

how would you do this without propertree if someone has used Clover

[@CaseyStrouse]

The process is pretty much the same but you will add a port limit patch in Clover in stead of the XhciPortLimit setting that OC uses and you don't need to add anything for Clover to see the kexts that you'll place in CLOVER/kexts/other.

[@juanstengel]

Great Videos (always) Question - how do you map the USB's when your keyboard and mouse doesn't work during the Install to a new system?

[@karlfoto611]

I also need help with this

[@eprpop]

You have to delete the SSDT-EC-USBX, you no longer need it when you do the port map.

[@WarriorsPhoto]

Could you please explain?

[@myusrn]

When i run hackintool and select export it produces both SSDT-EC-USBX.aml and SSDT-UIAC.aml files in addition to the USBPorts.kext. Are you saying these aml files are not to be placed in bootloaders ACPI folder and if not why does hackintool produce these? Why use hackintool vs the usbmap utility [ github.com/corpnewt/USBMap ] provided by opencore authors?

[@eprpop]

​@@WarriorsPhoto MacOS can only handle 15 usb ports, that SSDT makes the system to support more than that faking the usb controller, since you just enabled 15 ports, the system can handle that natively. Sorry for my bad English.

[@WarriorsPhoto]

Edward Parra Ohhh 😮 I was wondering what that KEXT was for, thank you.

[@CaseyStrouse]

@@eprpop No it doesn't. That SSDT provides USB power configuration and a fake embedded controller; it has nothing to do with port limits.

[@alancovington4851]

Once we have used ProperTree to insert USBPorts.kext should we also set it to enabled or leave it disabled

[@TechNolli]

Just make sure you remove the USBAllInject.kext and set Xhciportlimit to false in Propertree.

[@myusrn]

Thanks for great walkthrough on how to do this given its importance. In the hackintool mapping options for typec and a typec+sw which one does one use for a type-c port? Are there scenarios where assigning usb2 as the type for a usb 3.1 capable port produces a desired effect? How come you just used the USBPorts.kext that tool spit out and were able to ignore the SSDT-EC-USBX.aml and SSDT-UIAC.aml files it produced?

[@TechNolli]

I just assign Type C as Type C. You can use the kext or the SSDT.

[@whatsupdocchemdog5994]

Technolli, you created a EFI folder for me a couple to few years ago. I have gone through this walk through and for the life of me my Jump Drive does not show up in "Device" section to which drive is which. I have a photo somebody already created on Tonymacx86 website of my motherboard but it does not make sense because that person has the same HS01 and SS01 for TWO DIFFERENT Ports which is why I wanted to go back through to remap them. Do you have any clue why my jump drive does not show up in "Device" in Hackintool after plugging it in? The drive mounts, it does everything but it does not show up in Hackintool. It would make my life easier to know the why so I can properly remap this motherboard as I use a Focusrite USB Audio Type C for Pro Tools. I need to use that particular port because of the speed for Pro Tools so I don't get dropouts.

Thank you for making this so simple, but I still have some doubts... this port limit applies to USB hubs too? I mean, if my motherboard alone already occupies all of the 15 possible positions, if I have a monitor with 2 USB ports, will I be able to use them or not? Also... my front panel has 2 USB 2.0 and 1 USB 3.0 port (a total of 4)... are they all represented by 3 ports (1 internal USB 2.0 + 1 internal 2.0 and 1 internal 3.0 ports --- that is physically 1 USB 3.0 port)?
