Turns out that old Samsung Q1 Ultra tablet is capable of running Mac OS X. So today we're going to go through the most convoluted way to play the OS X version of Halo on this thing. Oh... and probably mess around with the touchscreen a bit :P

Why is tech from the 2000s always the coolest?
Because back in the day, tech brands and manufacturers ACTUALLY tried.
Why is*
probably because in the 2000's new tech and shit was the absolute hype so companies were actually trying to innovate the market with new creations, often in the form of portable compact computers, i think.
@@PuhlReshapedand also failed miserably so that's why they stopped
@@tetukute3988then marketing took over in the 2010s. Millennials only care about looking good and social status, not actually innovating or doing anything useful.
-installed the hackintosh -touch screen and audio works -mac port of halo works -gets a frag with the warthog truly the most successful mjd video ever released
-scores on ctf nothing went wrong
shameful parody of the greentext
The resolution can be fixed easily; it's a common issue when Hackintoshing these machines with weird displays that OS X doesn't properly read the display's EDID. You can fix this by dumping the EDID in Windows, then manually injecting it in OS X. This is what I had to do to get the display to work properly under OS X on my Sony Vaio UX UMPCs.
oh hey, dosdude! just gonna take the chance to thank you for your contributions, hope I can pay you back someday for the extended life you brought into Macs 🫡
good to know I'll keep this in mind whenever I rebuild the UX180P EFI to where it's based on OpenCore instead of Chameleon I already got the EFI built currently working on the config plist in theory I should have a post updated in the hackintosh fb page soon about the project only road block I've came across so far is USB mapping due to USB Tool Box not being supported in windows 7 pro X86 luckily the hackintosh discord has guided me into a alternative solution that might work
@@mrclicky23 No need to use OpenCore for Sonw Leopard... Chameleon (based on Apple's own "Boot-132"), is MUCH more ideal for machines like these that don't have EFI.
@@mrclicky23 No reason to use OpenCore... Chameleon (based on Apple's own "Boot-132") is MUCH more ideal for older machines like this that don't have EFI.
@@mrclicky23 No need to use OpenCore... Chameleon, based on Apple's own "Boot-132" implementation, is MUCH more ideal for these older systems that don't have UEFI.
9:56 it is so bizarre that it says Copyright 1999 yet just below are older logos of Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter and KZhead. Surely some graphic designers updated the label and they must have noticed the year there and asked their managers, which makes me wonder if the copyright protection really ran out and they hoped nobody would notice it.
A tablet hackintosh would have blown my mind back then. And running Halo! Great video!

this is such a cool idea! its so cool to see mac os running on a device like this, especially with touch. id love to see more mac os videos! great video mjd
Thank you!
nice name
avg mjd viewer /pos (edit: /pos is a tone indicator for positive)
femboy! no way!!
real
I love the Tony Chahares reference, a WONDERFUL seasoning.
MJD is the mad scientist of retro computing and I'm here for it.
Thank you for these absolutely FANTASTIC videos! I can't wait to dive into this one! ❤
This would have scratched every itch I had for a super portable touchscreen Hackintosh back in the day. Unfortunately I was stuck on my old Compaq laptop and Dell desktop. Super cool!
Have you tried Android-x86 on it yet? Would be cool to see an operating system that was designed for old touchscreen devices like this
It would be so cool like android 4.1 running on it
That sounds cool
i love these videos. Watching you use forgotten tech and play around wit it is so cool
the tony chacheres with the 1999 colyright is crazy
Rather than checking the printed copyright year, the best way to identify a disc at glance is looking at the matrix text on the center rings of the inner side. There's a database called redump showing info of different video game disc pressings, including version numbers and any other particular content they may have (as long as submitters take the time to check)
I didn't imagine you were going to do this, but it was something we all needed lmao. I can't even hackintosh my 2021 lenovo laptop because of hardware and seeing you do it on the samsung thingy is insane (and also disappointing for my laptop. literally disproves "newer is better"). I think you should try doing videos on Microsoft/Nokia Lumia and Windows Phone (and maybe a video on LumiaWOA? That's Windows on Arm). Plus, you could show off WUT which is a third party app store for Windows Phone devices (basically theres actually apps now - not as many as iOS or Android but still very usable). Thanks for the content! I hope you see this comment :) Have an awesome day Michael!
Did you try using OpenCore? I have been more or less successful on a Ryzen desktop and a ThinkPad T470p
For real
Just as a side note: you can run macOS on just about anything - in a virtual machine. You need a hacked version of VMware or mess with advanced settings of either VirtualBox or QEMU, there is no video acceleration and in some cases no sound either - but there's no messing with custom bootloaders, kexts or DSDTs, either. It mostly just works.
It wouldn't be an mjd video without the "but everything goes wrong," that's the trademark/tradition
I've always been holding out for Apple to actually introduce some sort of native touchscreen support for their desktop OS, I got pretty hyped when they announced their own silicon that would be used between their Mac and iPad lineup. Hoped it would be the starting point for a merge between macOS and iOS, like full desktop OS running on the iPad because same architect but nah. Still separated and still no quality desktop touchscreen support. It's pretty dumb because a ton of folks use Macs for photo editing with external drawing pads, hell they even use iPads with the Apple Pen lmao.
I am a simple man: I see a MJD Video and know, it will be full of errors, entertainment, and most obscure tec, I could imagine. And this is why I love Michael MJD. This is content, that you can watch on today’s KZhead, that is actually high quality. Keep it going!
6:17 That jingle when there are jump cuts with title cards in these videos always cracks me up like nothing else!
0:19 "wow, amazing editing. Oh wait that's real X not added in post"
Most of the reason that I watch your channel is due to the fact that for many years I spent a considerable amount of time installing OS/2 just because it had the only good version of mahjong to be found for any operating system.
Good work getting OS X installed. I'd love to see you keep trying to get that screen res working and find a way to calibrate the touch screen. I bet that for basic tasks it could still be a usable and useful little pocket Mac.
Crazy how you managed to play Halo CE on this thing! Cool stuff, as always
Im so glad you uploaded again
Nice pfp!
I haven't thought about the hazard distro in ages. It was my first time running macOS on a PC, brings back memories 🥺
lol 2009 really was peak hackintosh days, I was dual booting Snow Leopard with Windows 7 on my acer netbook
Cool vid man...keep it up.
Craziest idea I’ve seen today
I miss the UMPC/netbook era. So much potential before the market shifted to soulless slate tablets.
my favorate youtuber love the content keep up the good work
Its always a good day when mjd uploads. Especially if its about vintage electronics
wow! a hackintosh video where everything goes right for once!
Great video. That Halo gameplay was hilarious too, haha
Im loving all you videos keep up the great work ive been using an Emulator on my Android TCL phone and running Windows 95!
be me: sad see mjd upload happy
Glad I could help!
Another MJD upload!
Amazing! I'm surprised you arent a million yet!
Amazing video i always enjoy watching the uniquness you do,
I have 2 different q1's... thanks for finally giving me an idea of what to do with one of em in 2024
MJD the senior magician of ex-Mac fanatics lol dude these are so cool. I might even make one myself! Great fun, cool video.
I barely could get my own hackintosh to run and mjd is over here making touch hackintoshes
I didn't expect that 😅
im happy that your making some original mjd video!!! and not retro console videos
Michael Your videos are inspiring and entertaining
I was expecting a video title saying "Making a Touchscreen Hackintosh... But Everything Goes Wrong"
Babe wake up, Michael MJD uploaded.
we really like it
Most sane Mac gaming experience.
Friend:Wanna play? Me: nah. Friend: why not? Me: mjd just posted so l have to watch him because hes awesome!
The screen resolution is an easy fix with Hackintoshes - there's a boot flag that forces a resolution (that can be added to the com.apple.boot.plist file to make it apply on every boot). Let's assume that you want to force 1080p at 32 bit colour, the boot flag would be: "Graphics Mode"="1920x1080x32" I used to have to do this all the time on almost every Hackintosh install, regardless of having correct graphics drivers and/or distribution used.
BABE WAKEUP NEW MJD POST
Whoa, I think I had iDeneb on my old Dell laptop. Neat.
You are insane dude
Just bought one on eBay a few days ago on a whim. I have to try this too.
Babe, wake up! A new Michael MJD video just dropped!
Original
Exactly what I needed! A video on a Windows UMPC from 2006! 😅
technically this is the second touchscreen Mac on this channel?
This man's dedication to wanting to play Halo CE is impressive! I mean, it is a great game!
The portable pcs are coming back like Lenovo legion go, Rog ally and steam deck
That's not a stupid idea xD
I have a Touchscreen HP Elite X2 G1 as my Hackintosh running Monterrey, I also have a Dell Mini 9 with Snow Leopard 10.6.2 (32-bit) running on Atom
Have you tried connecting a keyboard and pressing alt while you are on the display settings? It should show more resolutions
Finally we got Halo running on a weird hackintosh!
The touch screen calibration issue feels like it was made for a different screen aspect ratio. There is only error in the X axis and it's almost perfect near the center of the screen while skews to the left near the left edge and to the right near the right edge.
finally a way to play halo!!!
Remembering when my athlon 64 4800+ / nVidia 84xxgt ran the Windows Portal port @
Most people would ask why you'd turn an underpowered janky tablet from 2009 into a hackintosh. Micheal is one of the people who asks "why not?" instead.
Reminds me i should get a new LCD for my Samsung Q1
Why is FAT an option for the file system of this drive in Disk Utility?
is there a file or something on macos that allows you to force it into a resolution? 🤔
I like this video
You can also eject the optical disk by holding the F12 key... At least, that's how I did back in the day on my Pentium 4 Hackintosh...
You have to test resolutions in SwitchRes no? Authorize them is that works
You should have a BD-R-Drive!
Compooter only using 85% of the screen real estate to save power 😂😂😂 Energy Star
Cool!
Try XRANDR to set a custom resolution. There might be a terminal command to add your own and activate it. You can make an SH script to have it auto set on each boot. I have done this on Linux, and it seems to be the same in MacOS.
Xrandr is for X windowing system, and Macs use Apple’s custom windowing system instead of X.
the funny thing is that install works on amd cpus aka the phenom 2s which are code named deneb
I was wondering what I could install on my HP Pavillion circa 2008 touch laptop, subject for my first video ever maybe? 🤭
How did you make bootable ideneb? I tried Rufus to make bootable usb drive but it doesn't allow.
snow leopard has rosetta. you have to manually install it
Hi Michael can you make a demo on how to use Cortana after 2023?
From all of the old Mac videos and the one where most goes well, is not even about an actual Apple product, lmao!
would be very interesting to try something like bazzite or some steam os thing
i kinda wanna see if you can get windows 98 and dos to run on it....
We need a modern version of this. Any ideas.
Nice
1:43 "Türkçe" 🗣🔥
i gotten a slightly messed up version that i never fixed or got a chance to mod.....their choice of drive was a bad one
I had 2 of these in 2013
You should try a Linux distro. It's also a unix like system and it's legal.
Seeing "Microsoft Game Studios" made my realise I need to play Freelancer again
Wow.
Michael you should try getting mac os on wii u it has a powerpc processer
Michael, the reason you have that illegal instruction error is all Intel Macs supported SSE3 while the Intel A110 in your Samsung Q1 does not support SSE3 and only supports SSE2
Cool
I have one of these collecting dust for over a decade (bought used in 2011, not even taken out of its box since a few months later), and I wonder how could you use this underpowered thing for anything more useful than as an overengineered digital photo frame. Suggestions welcome.
you know it's bad when mjd swears (censored)
