![]() So in order to bring tabs to Windows Explorer and Mac OS X Finder, we’ll enlist the help of a few third-party programs. Wi-Fi device spoofing is required (for me) only for applying the OCLP post-install WiFi patches and is not required for normal Wi-Fi operation in Sonoma.ĮDIT: My exact steps for installing and patching Sonoma are ?go=aHR0cHM6Ly9tYWNwa2cuaWN1Lz9pZD00MjA2NyZzPWJhbmRjYW1wJmt3PVh0cmFGaW5kZXItdmVyc2lvbi0xLjQuZG1nĮditor Please sign up to add features for XtraFinder. Both AirportBrcmFixup.kexts work fine in Sonoma. See my revised conclusion here and my mea culpa here.Īfter applying Wi-Fi patches with OCLP 0.6.9, I can delete the ACPI patches (Wi-Fi device spoofing) and I can use either Acidanthera's AirportBrcmFixup.kext 2.1.7 or the revised OCLP version of AirportBrcmFixup.kext 2.1.7 (with a plugin removed). I have repeated this with a clean install of Sonoma just to confirm. It turns out that it was the device spoofing that allowed me to patch my Wi-Fi - not the AirportBrcmFixup.kext. I was experimenting with ACPI spoofing and different versions of AirportBrcmFixup.kext at the same time and incorrectly concluded that I was able to patch my BCM 94352HMB Wi-Fi because of the AirportBrcmFixup.kext version. I misinterpreted my Sonoma Wi-Fi patching test results. My BCM 94352HMB Wi-Fi is still working perfectly in Sonoma, but not for the reasons I initially thought. Thank you OCLP developers, excellent work!!! Note 2: latest builds for the sonoma-development branch: To have wifi in Sonoma you have to install the nightly build from the sonoma-development branch, at least until both branches are merged. ![]() ![]() Note 1: do not install OCLP version 0.6.8. So far everything I've tried seems to work fine, Sonoma has a similar smooth operation to Ventura. Reboot > there is wifi working and graphics acceleration. OCLP asks to root patch for Broadwell iGPU + Modern Wireless, this time downloading KDK and applying patches Reboot > there is wifi working but no graphics acceleration ![]() OCLP asks to root patch for Modern Wireless, not for iGPU Broadwell, the reason is that Broadwell requires KDK download and this is not possible without wifi and internet connection (I don't use Ethernet) There have been no issues and everything has gone as expected.ĭownload nightly build of OCLP 0.6.9 sonoma-development branchĬreate the EFI folder from OCLP 0.6.9, leaving OCLP default settings I was able to update Ventura with OCLP 0.6.7 to Sonoma on an iMac 21" late 2015 (iMac16,2) using OCLP 0.6.9 (Early preview of macOS Sonoma). And there's the EFI folder.īTW: I have created guides for implementing all the necessary changes for Sondy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell and Skylake: Edited June 13 by cankiulascmnfye I would hit "View Build Log" instead of "Install"Īt the end of the log you'll find the location of the EFI. Sometimes others) compliments OCLP but it is true, what they have achieved is impressive. When starting Big Sur for the first time there were black boxes on the toolbar in Safari and some applications but choosing Display-P3 as display color profile (as advised by OCLP developers) solved the problem. And Big Sur runs very well on this laptop, with better graphics than High Sierra and some obvious improvements like Apple TV and Airdrop. Everything was smooth and good if a little slow. I downloaded OCLP 0.6.7, from this app I downloaded Big Sur, prepared the EFI on a USB stick and installed Big Sur. Yesterday I was curious to try OCLP on this laptop, never worried that it wouldn't update but curiosity to see how well OCLP works on such an old Mac was strong. So a few years ago I plugged it into the TV in the living room and since then I use it as a multimedia drive with Apple BT keyboard and mouse, with complete satisfaction. The screen got too small for my old man eyes and won't accept more than High Sierra 10.13.6. If you want to tell me how my approach is wrong or that your approach is the only right way to do this, please open OCLP > Support > Official Phone Support to report your issues. To generate OCLP's EFI for my hack (which uses SMBIOS model MacBookPro6,2):Ĭhange "Target Model" from "Host Model" to "MacBookPro6,2" (you would select your SMBIOS model here)Ĭhange Build options, Extras, Advanced, Security and App options if necessary There are elements of the OCLP-generated EFI that I ignore because they are applicable only to a real Mac. In addition to the kexts, I examine the OCLP-generated EFI ist for OCLP's kernel patches, ACPI patches (e.g., for my Arrandale CPU) and other elements. I prefer to use OCLP to generate the Open Core EFI for my hack and then I extract some of the kexts I need (including AMFIPass.kext) from the OCLP-generated EFI. There are multiple ways to use OCLP and it's good that we're finding all of them.
