hungrywallet Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Thanks guys, this worked for my set up. The default one would have probably worked too but I didn't need support for sata, sasex,scsi, etc. Edited October 19, 2020 by hungrywallet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with USB if I remember right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eSaF Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 @hungrywallet Is that OC Configurator you're using to bring up that selection? The reason I am asking I am sure that App was frowned upon by the OC devs, maybe it's been vastly improved to be able to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup that’s very true, Vit and Fritz do not want people to use that tool and would rather it didn’t exist. It’s only because of the amount of changes that happen in OC itself on a regular basis I think so It’s out of date every other day...lol Saying that though OC seems to be slowing down with the huge changes or are they famous last words I’m speaking???.

Aaah I understand Yea B I think so too, OC has come a long way and it's only the ribbon and bows, so to speak, the Devs are putting to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is quite normal and even shows up on a real Mac. Has been around since I retired in 2012, that's how I remember when I first saw it, I received a paid version of Mountain Lion as part of my leaving present. This is a screen capture from my current 2019 MacBook Pro. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matgen84 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) Hi @AudioGod Thanks Bro. It's a great news for Aorus Master's and Pro users. I plan to try this new version today or tomorrow. Sorry for my poor English, available for previous versions, Does OpenIntelWireless via Helliport always manage the Intel Wifi module as an Ethernet connection by the system, usable only on macOS (therefore neither during installation nor on the recovery partition) Edited October 22, 2020 by Matgen84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eSaF Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) I will give it a trial on my Test Disk as well and then do a clean Install trial and see results. PS Don't forget you obviously need to isolate your installed combo/wifi card to take it out of play and rely on just the Intel builtin one for the trial.

pl4n__b Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 hello gentleman, I have been using AudioGod's EFI for Clover for the 6 month and it working really smooth, without this thread, his effort and the team I would headache with the build, anyway I really want to change to the OpenCore, but don't know how to start and change from Clover to OC, is it really simple just change the EFI folder of the Clover to the new EFI OpenCore and replace serial number ?

eSaF Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Just finished the install on a test disk, the wifi and B/T signal is as strong as the Apple combo card, there is a slight hesitation during boot, loading the Intel Firmware (nothing to write home about). AG I know you had remap the USB ports to incorporate HS14 for B/T but I noticed only USB Type 2.0 and Type C are active and available or is this glitch unique to my machine. Apart from that I think going forward we'll have a winner, like I said it would be nice to free up that slot on the board. Definitely a feature to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens sometimes just reset your nvram a couple of times in a row and it should all kick in properly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matgen84 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) @AudioGod The first test of AiportItlwm+Bluetooth friends is finished on Big Sur: Bluetooth no problem (TV Bluetooth detected), Wifi some issues. The answer to my previous question: it seems that AiportItlwm does't need HelliPort. When I install it, the app do not work: error message itwlm needed. I mistaken somewhere because : I don't know how to isolate Fenvi card, so I think there are conflicts between Intel and Fenvi because the Chanels-Bands 2,4GHz/5GHz aren't well managed AirportBrcmFixUp boot-args brcmfx-country=#a brcmfx-driver=2 doesn't work specially country code Spoiler Edited October 22, 2020 by Matgen84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudioGod Posted October 22, 2020 Author Share Posted October 22, 2020 @Matgen84 I removed my Combo Card all together so I could avoid problems like that and get a clearer picture of what’s going on. I am currently running on the onboard combo card and have been for about 48 hours now. I haven’t had time to test it properly as I’ve had so much to do here but I’ve been relying on it and I’ve got by just fine tbh. Apple watch unlock started working flawlessly but only after enabling airportfixup. Try running without the airportfixup if you like and see if it’s better or worst. It’s all a work in progress but at the very least it seems to work kinda well. If I had to choose between using that or a fermi card I know what I would choose, clue it wouldn’t be the T919 that’s for sure... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only create a SSDT to disable it at boot. The airportItwlm doesn't detect my phone by bluetooth, don't recognize boot-args country-code=#a (country code = ZZ is displayed). Sometimes, I've got some problem to connect 5gHz and the speed is 140Mhz instead of 321Mhz (Fenvi T919). My opinion: AirportItwlm is too unstable yet for me. I wait next release.
