Besides what @texem said, the Bluetooth issue for not working after sleep is also fixed in v12.3.1.

 

Probably you are using a different BT-adapter but my system still suffers from BT sleep/wake issues . In my case , it's solved by using DDR4-2666 instead of 3200MHz Profile.

Seems this is system speed related and might be a timing problem with the latest 12.x BT drivers

I'm having a strange issue since a couple of days ago.
I have two disk to do my time machine backups. Time Machine stopped working on both.
The backup stalls until a message saying "Time machine couldn't complete the backup on drive XXX"
It seems I'm also having some kind of issue saving on certain drives, for example photoshop after trying to save a file to a directory in the user folder, it crashes and then can't open photoshop any more until boot.
 
It sounds more or less like a permisson problem. I passed the "first aid" from the disk util. But to no avail. I think I sould try something else, but can't figure out what...

There is really no need to post off site, just compress the folder and attach it here with your post.

Have you tried plugging it into another USB port on the case? The thing is what worked in previous OS X versions, with Monterey there have been some changes specially USB ports and how they are powered.

 

I have tried but didnt work in any port.

I also have two different BlueTooth USB Dongles both working in Mojave and not working in Monterey whatever I can do. Neither BlueToolFixup.kext not other solutions.

It also looks like dead SSD.

 

I also thought the same until I found great tutorial on how to debug this errors. 

 

Activated the log in console and checked for problems. The culplrit was an Adobe Lightroom file that was being written as null, and the system couldn't copy it. 

Either being a hackintosh or a mac it would fail miserably in both cases. 

 

Regenerated the file and it worked

Hi - Yes you can (See attached), don't forget you'll need to also reflect the setting in the config.plist otherwise the machine will not Boot.

Thank you. 

 

Why some file was used by audiogod, if it can be just switched in bios?

Hi. There is newer bios released (F12). Is it possible to unclock MSR for wifi for this version?

But sorry CFG Lock has no relation to WiFi. Or you mean something else unknown for me?

Finally got my Broadcom Bcm94360cs2 wifi/bluetooth connected and working using a NGFF M2 Wireless Card to PCI-E Pcie Desktop Bluetooth Converter Adapter.

 

Wifi connection looks good - better signal than the built in intel cnvi which I removed.  Bluetooth is working, although I have noticed the keyboard disconnects if not being used for a while...

 

Headphones connecting via bluetooth ok. Almost living the dongle free life!

Hello, back in 2019 I bought this card https://www.amazon.de/dp/B00MBP25UK/ which has an original Apple BCM943602CS WIFI+bluetooth module (as per the description of the product). I never used it for BT since I'm fine with my USB dongle. Since I'm connected only via ethernet, I also didn't use the WiFi. I only needed the WiFi to be available for my system for location service purposes. 

 

Due to a few issues with my ISP, I tried to connect to my hot spot from my phone with no luck, then I tried to connect to other WiFi networks and I realised that I'm only able to connect to 5GHz networks, not 2.4GHz, even though that both are detected. 

 

Does anyone else have the same issue? 

 

Thanks! 

 

UPDATE:

Replaced with my TP-link Archer AC1300 T6E, added the AirportBrcmFixup.kext, and it worked fine :D

 

UPDATE2:

After a bit more testing I found out that when I plug my antennas into either ABWB BCM943602CS or TP-Link, I'm unable to connect to 2.4GHz networks and to my hotspot (2.4GHZ and 5GHz), I can only connect to my router's 5GHz WiFi. Without the antennas both cards work fine, the ABWB BCM943602CS does not need the AirportBrcmFixup.kext, and since it uses Apple native chipset, I'm using it instead of TP-Link but without any antennas plugged, it works fine.

Hello again,

For some reason, my BIOS gets reset seemingly at random. So far, it's happened only 3 times with F12. It has never occurred with previous BIOS versions. After the first 2 resets, I went ahead and replaced the battery, but it just happened again for a 3rd time. I finally got smart and saved the profile on a flash drive.

Has anybody had a similar issue with the BIOS resetting itself?

I do have a habit of turning off the power strip after shutting down the computer, but it's never been a problem before with any of my previous computers. If it was a problem with the battery, I'm sure it would have lost its settings every time it sits for hours cut off from all power. The system clock seems to keep the correct time... am I correct to assume that the battery is also necessary to keep the clock from resetting as well?

There is an old story when RTC settings was resetted after using macOS. I am not sure you have exactly same case but I don't exclude this. In my case reset RTC may cause BIOS reset.

There are patches for RTC in Clover and in OpenCore. Check them!

If I understand the post correctly, there is no need for this setting on this board as it will and does cause BIOS reset. I suggest power down the p/c, remove the power cable, then press the power button for about 30 seconds to 1 minute to remove all residue charge from the capacitors, then remove the CMOS battery for 1 minute or more.

 

Of course these steps will default the BIOS settings which will have to be reset again for OS X including Year time and date. One good indication that all is back to normal when resetting the BIOS, look at the 'Seconds Count Down' in the BIOS clock, if it is stationary it is not working as should.

 

If all is well resetting the BIOS, as a precaution, at boot up clean the NvRAM before booting to the desktop and the RTC causing BIOS reset will be no more.

 

I'll give this a try, but the problem is a rare intermittent one (the worst kind!), so I won't really know if it worked for a while. Is it okay to load a saved BIOS profile after clearing the BIOS, or is it better to redo everything manually?

 

I'm not sure what you mean about "... look at the 'Seconds Count Down' in the BIOS clock ...". Is this a setting, or am I just looking at the seconds field in the clock display to see if is frozen?

Added question about BIOS clock.

It is not a setting as such, what I meant was the 'Seconds should be counting' like on a digital clock and not static (should be changing with every second). The latest BIOS version is F12 and yes it's ok to load a new or saved BIOS version after clearing the BIOS, to be absolutely sure have a look at the motherboard's manual for guidance.

 

I followed your suggestions and was able to reset all BIOS settings. I decided to short the Clear CMOS Jumper pins to be extra sure. I went ahead manually changed the BIOS settings instead of loading a saved profile. I noticed that the system clock reverted to the default values this time around. I didn't realize there was enough capacitance to keep BIOS from completely clearing even though I unplugged the computer.

 

If I don't get a random BIOS reset after a month, I'll consider it solved. Thanks!

Hope you will be happy.

But I meant something other. macOS uses RTC memory other way then designed by the hackintosh manufacture. The rare conflict leads to BIOS reset.

To avoid this we have special patches, FixRTC in Clover for example.

I'll keep this in mind if this problem continues. It's strange that this problem has not occurred until very recently... I built this machine March 2020 and been through a few BIOS updates since then. With the latest F12, BIOS didn't start randomly resetting until a few weeks ago, long after the update. It feels like something got corrupted, but I can't be sure.

 

Intermittent problems are a pain to troubleshoot!

 

 

Hi Team!

Can you tell me please, with my current setup (in signature) update from 12.1 to 12.5 will be fine for me without any surprises? Or I can updates for any macOS 12 before major 13 comes.

Tnaks.
