CloverLeaf Posted September 28, 2025 Share Posted September 28, 2025 (edited) Hey guys! I managed to install MacOS Sequoia on my old HP EliteBook 840 G5 and it turned out great! Everything works amazing, even getting better battery life under MacOS than Windows 11 Pro (4+ hours of video playback on max brightness, on a 6 years old battery). There's only one annoying problem I was not able to solve even after reinstalling the OS. The Wi-Fi icon is grayed out until I click on it (then it looks normal), even tho I am connected to the network and my Wi-Fi is working perfectly fine. I am using Broadcom BCM94360NG with the latest version of OCLP. As I said I reinstalled the OS already. OCLP re-applied. NVRAM reset multiple times, nothing helped so far. I know it's just cosmetic but my OCD kicks in big time Any idea/help is deeply appreciated.
