[pre-release] macOS Sonoma

[D3v1L]

70k opencl and 120k metal on geekbench6

...not bad for a 6600 and a beta1...

With all this talk about wifi not working do we even know what the chipset is for the real Mac’s that are supported on Sonoma?
Is it 2019 Mac’s an up?

I believe @dreamwhite posted this earlier, which shows various supported BCM WiFi device IDs. Granted, this is not a list of chipset model names, but these are the PCI device IDs that the chipset must map to.

Broadcom wifi not working. I found that on German forum: "I think the solution will be to add the pcie14e4,43a0 to the AppleBCMWLANBusInterfacePCIeMac.kext." I don't know if it's a good idea, of course.

On Monterey, /System/Library/Exentions/ AppleBCMWLANBusInterfacePCIeMac.kext/Info.plist :

Well, even on macOS Ventura, my PCIe ID (14e4:43a0) is not in AppleBCMWLANBusInterfacePCIeMac.kext/Info.plist so I don't think that's the right way of proceeding... As already mentioned, the reason why Wi-Fi doesn't work is not only KEXTs related, but also Frameworks related

Hi

 

A try on ASUS X75VB Ivy Bridge (i5-3340M), first time Jun 6, an upgrade of Ventura 13.4 (22F66) to Sonoma 14 BP1 (23A5257q) with MBP10,2 SmBios,

applied OCLP 0.6.7NB HD4000 graphic patch with MBP15,2 SmBios, restarted with MBP10,2 and got stuck on second boot stage.

Sonoma was reinstalled from Recovery and now without graphic acceleration without Wifi (BCM94360), with partial Bluetooth and MBP15,2 SmBios on external SSD.

 

Spoiler

 

Waiting for ... khronokernel & Dortania team (thanks to)

Thanks 😊 Sorry, I'm not an expert.

I doesn't write that. On Ventura, my Fenvi card  PCIe ID (14e4:43a0) is not in AppleBCMWLANBusInterfacePCIeMac.kext/Info.plis of course. I think about iMac with PCIe ID (14e4:4464) keep for Sonoma.

Ivy Bridge…

No acceleration.

ACPI SMC injection still works

VVM Board ID Kernel Patches still work

Safari is basically unusable at this stage. Sites load, but as soon as you "touch" them with the mouse pointer, all the content disappears on some "now you see me now you don't" basis

 

[PoMpIs]

How is it possible that my Fenvi-clone (rare Chinese model "WTXUP" ), in Sonoma says that it has the driver loaded???  🥴

 

 

 

[miliuco]

@PoMpIs

Yes, it’s strange. But does it work? Do you have wifi and BT?

No wifi, only bluetooth 😔

And..how is it possible that you have all this $hit in pci section? ahahah LoL 🤣 (LoL my MacPro ...real Apple...have none in this section ahahahh)

They see it...but hate it... ahahahah

[cankiulascmnfye]

@D3v1L I guess these "xyzFixup" kexts inject something into the system so that the intended kext for usage can pick it up and service it?

[notobo]

Is it possible? Ofc. 😅

 

Everything OK except Nvidia Kepler Acc. Waiting for OCLP. Sound with L/E patched Voodoo 3.0.1. Wirelees don't use, except BT which works with BT CSR 2,1 dongle 😂

Does the Mac Pro 2019 have the wifi module integrated into the board???

Yep... But i've sold it...Need new car 🤣🤣🤣🤣 btw, yes they have integrated on mb (if i remember well)

I think at this time, is only cosmetic and didn't inject nothing... 😅

[nyu1985]

Yes wifi is soldered onto the board within every mac with M1 and M2 chips. It seems new mac pro has also gpu inside the M2 chip and pcie slots won't be able to handle another gpu...

Does someone know how to fix this error in Xcode 15? I would like to build slimmed versions of AppleALC and itlwm:

 

[Noir0SX]

You need Lilu 1.6.6

[Hackintosh Tech]

 

BCM4364 is working, Last Intel machine MacBook Pro 16" , if anyone is interested or it could help enable the others.

[cankiulascmnfye]

@NoirOSX Ahh, yes, of course. Yay, it worked. Thanks.

So, a follow-up after the upgrade to Sonoma.

 

Like others, Wifi is down (actually the system reports it is "off").  I did upgrade Lilu and added lilubeta to my config.plist.  I'm finding it hard to believe that Apple intends to drop Broadcom wifi now, I would think it might be with the next release, not this one, so I'm hoping others have found a fix, or a fix can be found soon.

 

Other than that, it's a first beta; it loads slower and a bit clunky but it loads and my system (iMac 20,2) seems okay.

Another temporary wireless solution Works ..

After update to Sonoma, my dell xps 9570 i7 8750h cpu  MacBookPro 15,1 at the initial apple logo, the screen dims to the lowest brightness setting and stays like that for 5 minutes, then comes back to the normal brightness level. I tried -igfxblr boot arg without result. There is a fix for this issue.

Legacy Broadcom chipsets (94360, 94350, 94331...etc) are socketed modules - the supported Mac lineup for Sonoma (including Intel ones) all have soldered proprietary Broadcom UDM-based chipsets, hence no surprise here to see Apple dropping wireless support for legacy ones, as they have no reason to support these cards anymore.

(Ofc this comes as a huge axe to the hackintosh community but it is what it is - we can only hope that the brilliant folks over at OCLP cook up a proper solution that would help restore full functionality including AirPlay, AirDrop and other essential Continuity features (and not just network connectivity, although that would suffice for some I reckon), if not, then maybe it's time to start looking into Apple Silicon for those who wish to enjoy and experience all the goodness Apple has to offer with macOS on their main/production machine)

[nyu1985]

That's pretty simple. Mac with M1 chips introduced new components that are mainly soldered. It doesn't mean apple drops the vendor like broadcom but the device used are soldered so it will be difficult to find it with standard connections.

 

Another side effects that new mac pro is introducing, beside removing definitly intel proc, is that it won't handle gpu onto pcie slots as it uses M2 chips GPU only so it's more likely the end of AMD GPU support and no more AMD GPU series would be added (like rx 7xxx series).

 

All comes together with Sonoma as it will be the main OS for new mac pro.
