@mnfesq You should be able to revert to the last sealed snapshot (which removes the root patches) by booting into Recovery and following this.

Grandma gets a big kiss on the cheek!  Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction.  It worked just fine.  Now I just have to figure out how I can get USB WiFi to work without that USB patch that's preventing my Tahoe installation from booting.  Don't go anywhere, please. I think I may still need help. (j/k)

Upload the USBMap files, not updated to Tahoe and the one updated with boot issue. 

 

It turns out that I cannot even patch the AppleHDA.kext.  I have disabled ever setting in the OCLP-Mod and have uninstalled it and reinstalled it.  I noticed that reinstallation did not result in a new download of the KDK. Therefore, I think I might be having an issue with the KDK.  I am going to look into that and see if I can delete the one I have and manually install a new one.  I'll report back. BTW, I did create a new USBMap in Tahoe and it was significantly different from the one I created in Sequoia.  However, both work in Tahoe and neither allow me to boot once I have applied the OCLP-Mod patch.

This is an issue with the oclp-mod patch. As discussed here, I've correctly configured SIP 03080000, SecureBootModel disabled, and AMFIpass.kext 1.4.1 in config.plist, but as you can see in the image, I'm still unable to patch. What went wrong?

  1. You get the image that you posted
  2. Open it in Preview
  3. Go to Menu >> Tools >> Text selection
  4. Select Chinese text >> Copy
  5. Paste in Google Translator (or any other translator) as Simplified Chinese
  6. Translate to your desired language.

This is the English text (yes, it asks for an Internet connection):

 

Install driver patches

     Available patches:
          - Miscellaneous: Audio patches
          - Miscellaneous: Legacy USB extension

     Unable to install patches, reason:
          Network not connected
Start driver patch installation
Delete installed patches
Return

I completely removed OCLP-Mod since the only available patch that I had was for the AudioHDA, which, it seems that I don't need since my Audio works via my external USB audio console even though I still have random audio cuts. As far as I'm aware, the OCLP Mod does not apply anything else that makes the system more stable. For example, sleep is not working properly for me, and when I leave my computer running for a while, it seems that all USB interfaces are frozen and the computer crashes after a while.

Thank you miliuco

It's a bit confusing. I can't use Wi -Fi. So I have to apply this patch to install Chris's Wi -Fi app. It seems a bit contradictory.

If you don't have a way to download the KDK (corresponding to your Tahoe version) from another PC, perhaps,
You can use Hotspot with an iPhone or via tethering by adding the HoRNDIS.kext if you're using an Android phone.

Or just download everything from your phone and then transfer and install it on your PC

Well, I could be upset that I spent 5 days (night and day) trying to get USB WiFi to work in Tahoe because I could not get the USB patch to work without destroying my Tahoe installation but I choose to ignore that as something in the past that I cannot change and instead focus on big thanks to @laobamac_yyds for the commit he made to OCLP-Mod yesterday which fixed the problem I was having.  With the new download, it took me 15 minutes total to get USB WiFi working in Tahoe.  Now, I am mustering the courage to install Tahoe on my main system. A fresh backup will be an absolute necessity.  Yay!

@mnfesqWhat exactly did you download from @laobamac_yyds?
And what kind of USB Wi-Fi device did you use?

 

 

Well, friends, I have successfully patched the executable files of Metal and OpenGL. Now the graphics card of Kepler core can pass the initialization stage and in some cases shows interactive cursors (shing zooming has a smooth dynamic effect).

 

However, the 12.5 MTLCompilerService.xpc will die indefinitely in Tahoe, resulting in process blockage, resulting in the inability to pull up all system graphics.

 

However, Monterey's MTLCompilerService.xpc is a necessary environment for NVIDIA Kepler...

 

I'm looking for other ways to patch the MTLCompilerService. If anyone needs it, I can send the repaired Metal binary file.

I could never settle for my machine running like that or any kind of half measured operation.

 

I found a solution for all my Hackintosh issues! I got myself a Mac Studio M4 Max 16-core CPU 40-core GPU 64GB RAM and 1TB of storage and I'll be using my Western Digital Blue SN570 2 TB M.2-2280 drive with RayCue Hub 40Gbps 4in1 Stand. I'll be migrating to it and then I'll sell the parts of my Hackintosh since I don't use Windows at all, or maybe I'll keep it for a bit of gaming once every couple of years when I find time some time to spare between work and gym :P

 

I want to express my deepest gratitude to all the people who helped me all those years of Hackintoshing and all those who kept the community alive, you guys are all amazing and without your support I wouldn't be able to do many of the things I did and learned over time. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and I wish you all to live a good and healthy life, always smile and be surrounded by good people! 🙏

Most will eventually go down this path. I also got the M4 Studio and bought and upgraded the SSD from 512GB to 8TB. My Tahoe Hackintosh still rocks but its the last ride.

I might also do the 8TB upgrade (the unofficial one because my kidney costs less than the official one :lol:) but after 1 year when my coverage by Apple with expire, then I'll think about it, for now I want to play it safe. I payed 3729 euros for the Mac Studio alone, and in total with the other stuff I got (hubs, docking station, HDD station for external storage etc.) I spent total of 4300 euros.

I got the 8TB from AliExpress, way cheaper and works great with Fast shipping as well.

Yes Bro, as I said previously that is also my intention.

I am just waiting to see if Apple will release a M5 Mini at the end of the year or into January '26.

 

I will hang on to the Hack for nostalgia sake but the force of the Apple fan boys is strong in me. :hysterical:

Sorry if I am sounding like a turn coat but the end of the Hack line is way too much in sight. :cry:

I hear you. Although I have this nice Studio, I do most of my work on the Hack still, just feels right
