+# ALCPlugFix
+---
+This fork provides a fix for audio jack issues running Hackintosh macOS Tahoe. It addresses the common problem where audio output through the 3.5mm jack malfunctions after the system wakes from sleep.
+
+
+## Tested Environment
+- ThinkPad T480s
+- MacOS Tahoe 26
+- Audio Codec: ALC257 (using alcid=11)
+
+## The Problem
+After waking from sleep, the external audio jack (headphones / speakers) often experiences the following symptoms:
+- Extremely low volume or no sound at all.
+- Distorted or "crackling" audio quality.
+- Previously, the only temporary fixes were manually switching microphone inputs to "reset" the codec, or restarting the entier device.
+
+Change in this Fork
+Moden MacOS versions implement Signed System Volume (SSV), making the /usr/bin directory `read-only`. This fork updates the installation process to comply wit these security measures:
+- **Path Migration**: Moved the executable binary from `/usr/bin` to `/usr/local/bin`.
+- **Config Update**: Updated the `LaunchAgents` (`.plist` file) binary path to point to `/usr/local/bin`.
+- **Script Fix**: Patched install.sh to ensure successful deploymen on modern macOS file structures.
+
+## How To Use
+
+1. Clone this repository:
+   ```
+   git clone https://github.com/felikafelix/ALCPlugFix.git
+   ```
+3. Navigate to the fix folder:
+   ```
+   cd ALCPlugFix/alc_fix
+   ```
+5. Run the installation script with `sudo`:
+   ```
+   sudo ./install.sh
+   ```
+
+## Post Installation
+After running the script, it is recommended to **restart your device** to ensure the `LaunchAgents` is properly loaded and the background service is active.
+
+
+## Credits
+Special thanks to [goodwin](https://github.com/goodwin) for creating the original **ALCPlugFix**. This fork exists to maintain compatibility with modern macOS system architectures.
