@PK Design OK so  I followed your advise and wiped the Intel drive then did a clean install of OSX with all other drives/ssd's removed and...........

The Intel drive is still not shown anywhere in the bios except..... in the boot section where there's two entries, the usual OpenCore, and the f*ing Intel drive! So it would seem I did {censored} something up when I cloned the old Mac M.2 NVMe drive and so the EFI partition wasn't copied correctly. 

 

This behaviour is a bit like my old Asus P9X79 WS board, where I had to mod the bios to allow it to boot from this Intel PCIe NVMe ssd. Difference being that these boards never officially support NVMe SSD as boot drive.  

 

Now I just need to put the Windows NVMe SSD back in and then see what happens ............except I've now put my back out lugging this case in & out. Guess that's the downside to using a custom watercooling loop, they weigh a bloody ton in a big case. Oh well such is life. 

 

Anyways thanks again & it's time for a beer before bed.

That is correct - a lot of people using ccc unwittingly thinks by cloning a drive using this app it copies everything, it does not to my knowledge copy the EFI Partition.

CCC acctually appeared to have created a hidden EFI sized type partion, or maybe it was there from a previous hackintosh install, but it was empty so I dumped my EFI folder in there. As you say though, something wasn't copied or created in the correct way by CCC, eitherway its a learning experience and now I know the correct way so thanks guys.

Not directly on-topic for this thread, but also pertinent to why we're here at all: Dunno if you guys have read this yet.

What idiots, You can't do what they are trying to do and think your get away with it.

apple will take your behind to the cleaners.

i don’t understand why it’s got you miffed though? That is unless your flogging hacks to people as well and then in that case you wanna think twice.

 

Apple don’t mind users making hacks, they turn a blind eye to it and I know this as a fact but start trying to make money off it and it’s a whole new angle and game.

 

p.s that’s the exact kind of thing that will ruin it for everybody. And how dare the company use the OpenCore name. What a total and utter Liberty and pizz take!

Oh yeah, @AudioGod, I suppose I was miffed at the naked avarice of the money grab so clearly based on others's work and so clearly ruining it for all of us.  This is for all the reasons you mention, as well as for several others about which I wax *way* too philosophical in the comments on that article.  Suffice to say, I don't & never had any plan to sell such things, and I'm aghast that anyone would.

I saw a previous question from filmluver that was similar to mine, didn't see an answer. I'm interested in going OpenCore since it's the future. I'm currently running the previous Clover EFI from AudioGod and it's running fine, other than continuing problems with wake from sleep. Is jumping to OC as easy as replacing the Clover EFI with OC EFI, shut down, pull battery, turn on, load MSR Unlock bios preset, save, reboot and deal with imessage issues.. and that's it?

 

Thanks,

yes you got it bud but most importantly make sure you copy across your sn, uuid and mlb to the new EFI and then it should work flawlessly for you with all iCloud services running for you as normal and nothing to redo. :thumbsup_anim:

Hello,

I installed a PCIe card with the BCM94360CD chipset and WIFI and Bluetooth kind of works but not really. Bluetooth works for file transfer but for example when I connect my headphones I only get noise. The WIFI is really slow. Sometimes it goes down to zero but mostly the speeds are very bad in download and kind of normal fast in upload. Do I need any drivers for this card? I thought its OBB.

I was thinking of test driving your OC EFI when I get the time, but I remember somebody (maybe it was you) mentioning that the OC EFI is more fussy about what OS/Motherboard combo being used. Since your OC EFI has Catalina and the notWiFi version of the motherboard, would your OC EFI work "out of the box" with my Mojave/Aorus Pro WFI setup? Once again, I am paying for choosing the WiFi version of the motherboard before I knew MacOS couldn't use the onboard WiFi anyway :)

Let me see if I can get some help with SLEEP.

 

I made the same build as AudioGod using OPENCORE.

Mboard: Aourus Z390Pro
Graphics: Shappire RX580

My main drive is a M.2 WD Black SN750

 

Everything works great except sleep. Forced sleep works more or less. It goes to sleep but sometimes it gets a random wake two or three hours later. Just sometimes.

But normal sleep doesn't work. Screen goes off, but computer keeps running.

 

pmset -g assertions shows this:

 

Idle sleep preventers: IODisplayWrangler

 

And I tried to find help but everything I read is very vague. 

Has anybody faced something similar and solved it?

Yes it works perfectly. :yes: i have the WiFi version and am using Mojave, and the latest OC works. Just be sure to edit relevant parts (serial number, etc.) I also had to add some things in order for my particular WiFi/Bluetooth card to work.

In regards to the sleep issue, I have my hibernatemode set to 25 for traditional hibernate, I was wondering if I should also add HibernationFixup kext into my OpenCore or if it bundled with WhateverGreen (reference).

 

Thanks!

Sorry to ask the obvious, although your pics shows the card, I dare say it came with compatible aerials for attachment and boosting the signal because the last but one pic shows the card is recognised and functioning correct - Examples: Bluetooth Low Energy Supported: Yes, Handoff Supported: Yes, Instant Hot Spot Supported: Yes. So as far as I can surmise the possible fault could be inadequate aerials or none at all.

 

The aerials are the one on the picture below. Strange thing is that it can do the full upload speed which is 30mbit but it only does 5mbiz download and should be able to do at least 100mbit.

I don't know if its really a problem with the antennas. But I read in another post that sometimes the bluetooth and the wifi signals mix up and cause problems.

One guy recommended to extend one antenna and put it somewhere else.

Btw. I have the same problem with the MQUPIN Fenvi T919 with 4 aerials. it's the second image below.

Hi - Here is a possible and permanent fix for that error. Just insure you read and apply the fix as instructed. Good luck.

Fix %22Disk not ejected properly%22 Issue on OS X:Mac OS X.zip

Well, before I installed my somehow incompatible WiFi card, I was able to get his to work my using Jettison. The above did not work for me.

yes, it's an old story with the eject error after wake from sleep.

With OpenCore using USBPorts.kext which contains the correct power settings we fixed it. No clue about Clover here.

 

And yes, Jettison is what i recommend too.

I can verify @texem 's words. Proper USBPorts.kext, darkwake=0 and disabling the XMP Profile (3200Mhz originally but set to 2666Mhz) has fixed all USB Ejections and Sleep issues for me.

 

About USBPorts.kext, the one provided by @AudioGod is awesome, but I think every self-respectful hackintosher should go through the process of mapping their hack's USB ports. Hackintool is a great tool that is also super helpful with USB port mapping.

Hackintool for beginners is a great tool, but the best way to map the USB is to use your ACPI by disabling the ports not in use to fall within the limit of 15 imposed by apple

Ok i will switch to opencore. Can I proceed with https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Desktop-Guide/tree/master/clover-conversion and just change the efi + mlb & serial ? 

 

no, I guess this fails.

 

Take the OpenCore EFI from this thread and enter your credentials from Clover.
