So it does not like it when the computer is turned off (power off)...

I updated the BlueToolFixup kext with the new build... Same issue... As everything else seems to work fine on the laptop, I will just wait for that kext to be further updated.

Its very strange... Bluetooth worked... and senses (slowly) new devices.. But it does not seem to be able to connect. Unsure if it is a kext that's set to be activated or deactivated which is the issue...

Strange... It was working this morning. I was able to a pair my Beats headphones and my iPhone... But now it does not seem to work... The USB ports issue seems resolved... Strange

the USBPort_E7470 that is with (your) EFI package no longer activates all USB ports... (this is the kext that's found in the guide elsewhere on this site)... This is the readout from System Information.

Disabled all bluetooth kext Added Bluetoolfixup Reactivated BrCmPatchRam3 Now it works... THANKS for the help... Remaining issue now is related to the USB ports...

This is the list of KEXTs that are in my system Which ones are not correct... I disabled all the bluetooth ones and now the machine boots in normal time... But no bluetooth of course... (all the ones with Brcm...)

I have been able to install Monterey release to this laptop... But boot is extremely slow and no bluetooth... I am wondering if the bluetooth chipset is still supported... Does an unsupported bluetooth chipset slow down the boot process?

Thanks… let me try this out…

I had been able to install beta Monterey builds build 8... or somewheres around that. Does anyone have a EFI folder that works with the Monterey Release version?

Why am I getting this now when I boot up? This is the same EFI from the USB drive...

There was an issue with the google drive link

Is using an Intel WiFI card with the itlwm kext a viable solution to getting bluetooth and wifi working on this machine... WIFI is working, but I have not gotten bluetooth to work. (I may have a card that Monterey dropped support for) Thus... will the itlwm work well? OR should I simply be testing this myself?

Please help... Gigabyte Z370, 64 gig RAM, 9900k CPU, Radeon 580 Working stable for years... Suddenly my desktop stopped booting into OS X... Initial determination, it was a dead power supply. Swapped out power supply THEN System boots only for around 5-6 mins. Thought it was thermal issue with AIO Corsair H60 replaced that THEN System still only boots for around 5-6 mins did clean install to SSD (it was able to install this for some reason) NOW Still only booting for around 5-6 mins Testing RAM now... Unsure what else to do...

I have Catalina installed on my legacy boot DX5802 board. For an unknown reason, I can't seem to use Clover past release 5122 I was trying to build a legacy boot system to boot Big Sur (at least)... I had gotten it to boot with OC, but with a super long delay and lots of strange error messages... What is the best way to get Big Sur to boot on this machine?

Attempted install onto E6530 and it hung at a certain point that I can upload later... OpenCore Legacy Patcher has (apparently) been able to patch Monterey to handle HD4000. The patcher with this update and not been released yet. Somewhat confused as to the process of taking a OpenCore Legacy Patcher created EFI folder and using it to boot an E6530 laptop.

Success!!! But no bluetooth... Used the standard posted EFI package in the Guides thread and adding "-lilubetaall -wegbeta" to boot args... Updated the kexts using OpenCore configurator... Installed using USB installer... Bluetooth... 1. during boot to install USB... the computer seems to stall at some bluetooth part of the install, but after a long time, it makes it to the install screen 2. during regular boot - testing this out now...

hmmm... Heading home to test this out... Going to install onto a spare HD at first... Created an install usb... Will report shortly.

No HD Graphics 4000 Does this mean that its the end of the line for E6530? OR will the Big Sur drivers work in Monterey?

The shorter cable worked... Is there some sort of cable length limit with HDMI cables?

strange... hooked it up to a monitor with a shorter HDMI cable and it worked... now what's wrong with the TV??? Going to test with the tv and the same shorter cable tonight.

E6230 and No HDMI video signal 1. used the EFI folder that's on the install thread 2. connected HDMI cable to tv 3. display preferences shows the tv and all the various scaling settings & other options, BUT the tv does not display anything or have any video at all 4. the laptop display adjusts with mirroring and other settings AS IF a display is attached 5. Not sure what's wrong... 6. checked my bios settings, but didn't see much to change in the video section 7. i recall HDMI working under Catalina and/or Mojave, but don't always have the laptop hooked up to a TV or a monitor... Don't think its a cable issue, but it might be... maybe some kext is blocking the HDMI hardware? Has anyone else experienced this issue? EFI.zip

Fixed with the patched kext from https://github.com/khronokernel/IO80211-Patches

OK will open up the case shortly...

I have an E6230 with an Apple Airport Card. Using Big Sur using the bootpack found on this site. I have bluetooth, but no WiFi, not sure what to do to activate it. It was working under Catalina.
