@AudioGod I dropped 3 kext in place and rebooted. 

 

AirportBrcmFixup.kext

BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext

BT works after a reboot & shut downs. Thank you so very much. This 'bug' really annoyed me. Please let me know if I can help out with anything.

hi
Thank you for the great work and spruce guide.
Next to Windows 10 I put Hactkintosh on OpenCore 0.5.6 on my PC (Catalina 10.15.4) with files from AudioGod's "AG OpenCore 056 Z390 Master EFI 040320.zip" on another disk and I encountered a problem that requires your help because I don't know what to do next .

 

The computer started up immediately, most of the things I was able to check worked (except FileVault), however, after a few hours of work, I restarted and after selecting "MacOs Catalina" from the Boot menu, an apple appeared for a few seconds and then the message "OCB: StartImage failed - Aborted. Halting on critical error "and black screen. In addition to Windows, I could only run the Boot menu option - Recovery.
I did the installation again - the computer worked 1.5 days (with several reboots and running Windows 10) and the situation repeated,

 

In AudioGod's config.plist, I only entered serial numbers in the platforminfo and I introduced 3840x2160 resolution in UEFI-Output-Resolution. The rest unchanged.

 

My computer - specification:
- Gigabyte Aorus Master Z390

- Intel i9-9900K
- Sapphire Radeon XR 5700 XT
- Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1 Tb SSD (only for MacOs)
- 32 Gb Ram HyperX Fury 3600 Mhz
- WiFi with OSX WIFI Apple Broadcom BCM943602CDP
- Noctua NH-D15 cooling

- Eizo EV3237 4K monitor

 

In addition, the "F11c MSR Unlocked Profile" works on the motherboard, however, I did not complete point 6 of MSR placement because it was about Clover and I do not know if the motherboard is unlocked (probably not).

 

What could be the problem - I would like to ask for feedback and thank you in advance for your help.

Hi.
I was waiting for OpenCire 0.5.7 and installed Catalina 10.15.4 EFI AudioGood without any problems.
Hactintosh has been in operation for 2 days and the problem reappeared as described earlier, ie "Unable to start and message as before" "OCB: StartImage failed - Aborted. Halting on critical error ".

 

I did a reset on MB before installation and never tried to upload Clover. CFG is unlocked and MB is Bios 11c

I don't know what to do next because the configuration is similar to many of you where everything works or any problems can be repaired.

 

In addition, I do not understand this error and why it occurs after a few days of installation where all elements of the system worked.

What do you advise - wait for the next version of OpenCore or just do the installation on Clover?

I don't know if Clover will also have this problem?

 

Thank you in advance for your advice and answers :)

I had same problem. I reset bios with button in backplate, then i restore settings with config file from AdioGod.

One thing that made a huge difference for me is to turn the computer OFF completely → remove the BIOS battery → wait 10 -15 minutes and then put it back in. BEFORE INSTALLING MACOS.

Does it fix the problem permanently or do you have it from time to time?

I had it few times. Not sure, but I think it was after I use windows.  Also I found that after resetting bios and restoring the config, I should make other configs in one time, as a avx, voltage and etc. before I choose save and exit. Otherwise I had same problem if I do it separately.

Cooool !!
Thanks for the advice - after resetting Bios and uploading the "F11c unlocked" settings, MacOs has started.
So the culprit is Bios and settings / or their changes.
I will try on your advice to explore the subject of corrections in avx and Voltage.

 

I will add that I got this error twice after using "restart MacOs"


Once again, many thanks for the advice - now at least I know where to look for a mistake :)

CPU: i5-8400 LGA 1151

 

BIOS SETTINGS

• Enter BIOS → Press F12 → Enter Setup

• Save & Exit → Load Optimized Defaults

 

• Boot -> Windows 8/10 Features -> Win 8/10WHQL

• Boot -> CSM Support -> Disabled (Can be set to Enabled if need be but try to have it set to Disabled first)

• Favourites -> Extreme Memory Profile (X.M.P.) -> Profile1

• Favourites -> VT-d -> Disabled (Can be set to Enabled or Disabled, Your choice)

• Settings -> IO Ports -> Internal Display Output -> PCIe 1 Slot

• Settings -> IO Ports -> Internal Graphics -> Enabled

Edit: This is the EFI I've used Clover Z390 Pro Polaris EFI 260320.zip

 

Do you have any suggestions?

Has anyone successfully installed Catalina on the z390I pro? :worried_anim:

 

Thank you in advance!

Awesome, Your very welcome but what’s wrong with your burner, that should work OTB no problems.

 

Keep an eye out for future updates of the EFIs, I generally update them monthly unless the needs comes to do it sooner.

 

and this thread is actually dedicated to the Z390 Master but if you go to my other thread it’s dedicated to the Z390 Pro here.

@AudioGod I have been subscribed to the thread and I read every message here. Thanks for still helping everyone. You're awesome my friend!

Today I wanted to upgrade from 15.3 to 15.4 Catalina. And it won't due to old efi. So I read your original thread again and replaced it with your new efi for 15.4 and bam it worked liked a charm. All my previous issues and tiny bugs were also automatically resolved agar updating to 15.4. thank you so much. The steroid I followed were as followed:
0. Clicked on update my Mac last week without any success.
1. Replaced efi with your's new one.
2. Used unlocked cfg profile from your setup.
3. Loaded new profile and rebooted system.
4. It automatically booted into the "update" boot setting.
5. Profit

Can't thank you enough!

Hi @AudioGod, firstly thanks for the guide, it's been really helpful in explaining a lot with regards to how this setup all works. I've successfully had a Mojave install with Clover bootloader running on my Aorus Z390 Master with a 9900k and Saphire RX580 with no issues. Trying to do a clean install of Catalina with OpenCore using the 19,1 opencore EFI on a blank Samsung 970 EVO NVME and can boot into the installer with no issues.  However when I select the drive to install Catalina to (which I have tried formatting as HFS and APFS) and then click install, the install macOS Catalina app closes and chucks me back to the macOS utilities screen. Have tried multiple USB ports on the board but still the same result and can't seem to figure it out! I wondered if this was something you've come across?

No never heard of that one before, that new.

remove all drives apart from the NVMe you want to use to install too and try again buddy.

 

make sure your using my MSR Unlocked profile and the correct firmware revision and if you don’t want to unlock your MSR using my profile then make sure your using my bios settings as per page one and Change the oc config to work with a locked MSR.

 

also make sure you clear your nvram.

 

this has nothing to do with usb by the sound of it. Very strange.

Yup, using your MSR unlock profile and have it saved in my bios profiles. Haven't tweaked anything else or restored my overclock yet either as wanted to follow 100%. All other drives removed as didn't want to kill my Mojave or windows. Just tried with Clover and it's doing the same there so it's not OpenCore related.

 

One thing I did note is the current Catalina 10.15.4 installer pulled down from Apple on a legit macbook is huge, 8.4gb on the USB (had to use a 16gb to get around that). I'm trying using gibMacOS to make an installer now, see if it gets it back to the 8gb stick.

No it’s not Oc or EFI related I knew that straight away as 2000+ downloads of this months version has had very little problems Efi regardless and most the problems that have come up have been due to the user not the EFI.

 

pull the battery from your board with no power connected and wait a few mins, put it all back together and try again. Just incase there’s somthing nasty remaining in the cmos that a nvram reset can’t clear.


 

ah ok, download Catalina from the App Store, don’t get it from anywhere else. Big mistake that is bud.

Look carefully at the settings in the BIOS, do everything as on the first page. With such equipment, you should not have problems.
