Random freezes, reboots and sleep not working after adding Graphic card

[EliteMacx86]

It works perfectly well but if Apple leaves a bug behind.... xD
I'll wait for 12.3 to see if it fixes this bug as it really appears to happen on genuine Apple computers, if it doesn't I'll try BlueToolFixup.kext.

I don't think there is harm in trying BlueToolFixup now and if it doesn't work, remove the kext and you can continue to wait for the update.

If I use it, in which position would it need to be in the config.plist? Current order is:

• Lilu.kext
• VirtualSMC.kext
• WhateverGreen.kext
• AppleALC.kext
• USBPorts.kext
• LucyRTL8125Ethernet.kext

You can load it after USBPorts.kext.

OK it seems that the Hack reboots on cold boot only if I don't close apps before shutting down. I still have to nail which app does this but it is either Mail app or Safari but it's weird as I never had something like this before. Is there a Quirk that I need to enable/disable in order to prevent this from happening? Thanks!

Provide the exact reboot scenario.

Sure, there it goes

On cold boots, OC loads then MacOS starts loading and when the progress bar is at about 1/3 (maybe a bit less) it restarts and then boots to desktop with no issues. After that I have no issues and can restart the Hack and it will always boot to desktop.

Sometimes, it reboots twice (always with the progress bar at about 1/3) before getting to desktop and there is the odd time where there will be no issues and the hack will boot straight to desktop on cold boots.

If the Hack reboots before getting to the desktop, a panic report will be generated always referring to the graphic card as if the drivers had issues loading.

I'm totally aware of this, every panic I've had referred to graphics but we checked everything and the graphic card is working as it should; I've just understood recently that not closing the Mail app causes the graphic panic but this doesn't really make sense

I have set XMP to auto in BIOS instead of Profile 1 and will see what happens when I boot the hack tomorrow. The downside of this is that RAM runs at 2133Mhz instead of 2666 Mhz now but that was to be expected

As per the AMD Radeon VII Crashing fix guide, you need to disable the XMP completely. Not Profile 1 or Auto.

 

[gipsy]

hmmm I don't think I can turn it off fully in the ASRock BIOS, it's either auto or profile 1

With Auto option, what's the frequency you get under macOS?

 

[gipsy]

2133 Mhz instead of 2666Mhz with XMP profile 1
