Hi guys, today I'm at work and I have a real Mac mini 2018, and I installed macOS Monterey in it, after reading this thread I found that the information about the graphics card is shown, as it was in BS... See below...

It seems the stall of LogInUI window is a dGPU only related bug. System that are using iGPUs only do not get a stall on the LoginUI window. It's not injected kext or DeviceProperties related.

@iCanaro Take a look, https://forum.amd-osx.com/index.php?threads/pre-release-macos-monterey.1841/page-2#post-10771

HP 840 G3 100% working on Monterey. Somehow there is no AppleALC 1.6.2 kext to test. So, the workaround is to include -alcbeta in boot-args Kudos to @miliuco Checkout working EFI

if this can help you when you want and time, give it a look https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O2Nk6kYhHK6xxShKCFPqvKL7A2Gx__xV/view

@jefftr66 as you can see with PlistEdit Pro I put mine and the sample close and see where the error that tells me ocvalidate and I correct it in my plist no one is stupid or good we're here to learn from each other someday I may need your help with something that escapes me👋

copy the entries from the sample.plist and add them to your plist

what is your setting to make your GPU appear ?

@ghost8282 I 'm sorry you're right I checked it was set to 1 by dint of solving other people's problems messing with mine , thanks it's perfect congratulations again

No need for the test! Andrey1970AppleLife just replied in the bugtracker. I need to add opacity (1% is ok), an icon cannot have 0% opacity inside. I'm replacing the icons now, I will delete the zip I attached and replace with the correct one. I added also a video in the bugtracker, showing the issue it causes if 100% transparency is inside an icon.

No, no, showing the GPU in PCI devices is only cosmetic, if you see a real Mac you don't see devices in that section of System Profiler, it doesn't need to be there. In System Profiler> Graphics it does appear ok. Strange! This is how the latest version works in Monterrey.

I have ProperTree working very well in Monterey. Have you last version? https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree I've tried MacPro7,1. iMac19,1 and iMacPro1,1. none of them shows up GPU in About this Mac. I think it's an early macOS, sure this will be fixed in future betas.

Got Monterey to boot with my Asus X299 board. Had to replace VirtualSMC.kext with FakeSMC.kext and CpuTSCSync.kext with TSCAdjustReset.kext. Credits to apfelnico

macOS Monterey on Acer E1 signed with the Clover 5136. Almost everything works, currently, Atheros WiFi and Lan do not work.

for macOS Monterey i am working on a new version of TINU, the app has been migrated to swift 5, has native Apple Silicon support, new icons and improved graphics and of course I am testing it on the new os, it still isn't quite ready for release but the latest released beta version will work with the new OS release.

Monterey Jack cheese is in da house!

Although it has been commented that the absence of the graphics card in About this Mac is related to AMD dGPUs, I have tried booting with the Intel UHD 630 iGPU and the behavior is the same.

no problem , look here to 😇

Those who enabled automatic login to boot fast as in Big Sur can now disable auto login to type in your password. However you have to change your login photo to Memoji to login fast similar to Big Sur. You will experience animation during your login.

here on the right your plist the sample on the left 😉

@miliuco I sent him the sample first

@miliuco Not at all!!! Easy thing to miss. I moved my EFICheck disable question to here if you have any comments or advice. Thank you.

I'm dumb

I'm using RestrictEvents and I don't have eficheck bit I'm not sure if it was without the kext. A naive question: how can I post a block titled Reveal hidden contents as yours? Thanks @tonyx86

try to set for $ 6,000,000 PickerAttribute to 144 😃 I assume you have updated opencanopy.efi and the resources folder

Ok I'm a lazy so and so and I know it off topic Now for the $6,000,000 question How do you get OC to display GUI Don't seem to be happening here Any help appreciated.config.plist.zip

If my memory serves me, I remember seeing that in my Snow Leopard days but then again my memory is in the age of cobwebs and dust.

@5T33Z0 "Funny side-note: is this new, or has this always been in there Don't Steal Mac OS X" Since the very early times of hackintosh, if I remember well. At the beginning there were dsmos.kext or AppleDecrypt.kext for decrypt binaries and run apps, and @Slice FakeSMC.kext to be able to boot macOS out of a Mac. dsmos you know from where comes

@ghost8282 @antuneddu I have pointer in the new version of the theme. Really both versions seem to work as expected in my system. I understand that setting opacity 1% is the way to fix the problem of the first version but, as far as I have seen, on my PC it also worked well. The new version of the theme works perfectly. And it's a very beautiful theme.

Good point, I had to toggle Automatic Login in Users & Groups to get rid of a 30 second delay, now it boots is as fast as BS.

I switched to iMac16,1

bravo bel lavoro Daniele , I don't know if it's my problem but the mouse doesn't work at all with the previous version yes

Fixed, now every click is registered on my build: Can you please check with your 4k if you spot something strange? Should be ok with that 1% opacity

this is good news for amd owners Thank you

I just build recent commits for clover and got a kernel panic in Monterey when booting. Doesn’t happen with 5136 release clover. I did also update kexts so it could be something else. I will test more and report. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

On my system with automatic login disabled boot time is about 90 seconds. With automatic login enabled (no need to enter password) boot time is 10 seconds.

The official drivers for Mac exists https://www.mediatek.com/products/broadbandwifi/rt5370

My Observation using Montery: 1. Usb Bluetooth working OOB in Big Sur stops working 2. CleanMyMacx stops working 3. Propertree is not usable, text is invisible 4. Adguard is OK 5. Photoshop and Bridge working 100% 6. MS Office working 100% 7. Headphone icon in menu bar now display correctly For those having issues with longer boot time try to enable automatic login in Users & Group. It solves mine.

Hi @Slice I made a Monterey's USB Installer to clean install the Preview. The key is "Install macOS 12 Beta" Maybe, for others Beta, the usb stick will be named "Install%20Install%20macOS%20Monterey". Only Apple now.

Has anyone figured out how to get our graphics cards to display in the About This Mac screen? The only screenshots I've seen with it visible so far have Radeon cards and MP7,1 SMBIOS. I don't want to change from MP6,1.

Thanks @Hervé, I have to investigate that throughly, because I use only ssd, and its annoying the time it takes to boot...

Thanks This two one is not bad to CloverBadge I just change the Selection_big.png of this theme CloverLight

Sharing my opencanopy BigSurFlat theme. If you like use it, if you don't...prrrrrr I didn't find something similar, but maybe something similar exists and I didn't search well....anyway, here it is: Zip file updated and fixed Background included in this zip file can be used at 1x with a width resolution of 1920px: more resolutions available here: Available on github: https://github.com/82ghost82/BigSurFlat Opencanopy-BigSurFlat-Theme.zip

We are working on them. Apple have shifted around the section we used for cores and threads calculations and added some other checks. Currently verbose will start but then panics on launchd (init) with an invalid opcode.

@ITzTravelInTime - Thanks, really looking forward to the new app, sounds very exciting.

Actually Bro the last TINU version still works, I used it to make an installer for BS and Monterey without any problems.

Obviously the code sequence has changed a bit but the structure remains the same: Therefore we've got to modify the patch too. You need to find 41 c7 45 00 00 00 00 00 e9 and replace it with 41 c7 45 00 01 00 00 00 e9 Good luck! Mieze

Attempt successful! Hack Z170 in signature, with Clover 5136 I tried to update high sierra installed in HFS in monterey, the biggest difficulty was that the kexts compiled just before the attempt, one of them immediately sent the system into kernel panic on the first reboot, but using the old catalina kexts, adding boot arg -lilubetall -wegbeta as a precaution then everything went smoothly PS: I was forgetting, I created folder 12 in Clover for kexts At the moment the only problem seems to be the BT and wi-fi injector (BluetoothDevBroadcomInjector.kext BroadcomWiFiInjector.kext) they don't work, they block the monterey boot
