Trying to install Mojave on HP Elitebook 840 G1

Hi guys!

I have successfully installed Mojave with Vanilla method on my laptop, but I'm having problems with it. I'm trying to test out which kexts do I need for my system to work perfectly. I still haven't installed Clover on my HDD and haven't started the post installation, because I don't want to screw up my clean install.

I have limited access to my friend's Macbook, where I can make bootable USBs.

I've tryed Rehabman's config.plist file, but it didn't work for me, I wasn't able to load the installer. Then I have downloaded a preconfigured EFI folder from https://hackintosher.com/guides/how-to-make-a-macos-10-14-mojave-flash-drive-installer/ , it has a few kext, that I didn't need, I removed them and with this config.plist I was able to boot the installer.

The install went smoothly.

I thought the safest thing to experience with the kexts is through the Installer USB. I place every kext in the EFI partition and other folder. I have ACPIBacklight, ACPIBatteryManager, FakeSMC, IntelMausiEthernet, Lilu, USBInjectAll, VoodooPS2Controller, WhateverGreen kexts.

I can't see my battery, can't controll my brightness, no sound device.

I have ethernet, I have proper resolution on my display, sleep works properly, trackpad works ok, but it's recognized as a mouse.

I have no idea what should I do with this DSDT thing, I'm seeing everywhere, but I just don't get it.

Thanks for the replies.
