Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

Hi everyone.
Is there a way to make an Apple Magic Keyboard work AGAIN on OpenCore boot menu (0.6.9 release)? Currently, I have to use my Magic Mouse to select any other than the default OS. The keyboard was working with OC 0.6.6 (same BIOS), and I do not know if it broke with the update to OC 0.6.7 or OC 0.6.9. I am using the Fenvi T919 card, macOS 10.15.7 (19H1030), BIOS F20b.
Thanks in advance!

Did you check the drop-down menu?

@CaseySJ,

I haven't moved the WiFi/BT PCIe card from the old system to the new system yet so it's not that and I don't have any of the other types of sleep deprivation components you mention either ....

Was really just looking to get confirmation if Z490 Vision G sleeps ok with OC 0.69 + OSX 11.3.1 ? as both yourself and @Justcurious1 reported sleep not working with this combo a few pages back in this thread.

Other than the sleep issue the system is running well ... slowly migrating software from my old Haswell system to this new one

Cheers

Still no resolution with sleep on my end. I think it’s the old hibernation issue. It actually does go to sleep and I can successfully wake it as long as I don’t wait too long. Could it be hibernation?

@jaymonkey,

I wonder if the Vega GPU is the culprit. The boot argument “agdpmod=pikera” should be removed.

@CaseySJ,

Update on my Sleep issue with the Z490. Vision G.

I went back to my original iMac20,2 config rather than using the Hackintool iMacPro1,1 generated config and after a bit more tweaking the system sleeps and wakes fine now. As a bonus the CPU also benchmarks a bit quicker. So all good for now.

As I suspected iMac20,2 seems to be a better match for this system, whilst the iMacPro1,1 config worked well it never felt quite as responsive as it should on a system with a i9 CPU IMHO. One other observation is that the fans when running the iMac20,2 config do not spin up as fast as they did with the iMacPro1,1 config. I did not change the fan curves in the BIOS ?

Now that I have the system running with the two configs I will do some more testing.

Cheers
Jay

Interesting. I'm running 20,1. I updated my BIOS to f20 and there was some sleep improvement but if left long enough it still wants to come back to a half-life state. What would the big difference be between 20,1 and 20,2? My CPU is a 10700.

Has anyone had success connecting a UAD Apollo with Thunderbolt 1 option card to the Giga Z490 Thunderbolt 3 port?
1) I am using the Motherboard F20 Bios (April 2021 release), OC 9.6 iMac 19.1,
2) I can see the TB connection in PCI system information.
3) I have set the TB security in Bios to None
4) I have tried the Apple TB-3 to TB adapter (which I see now on UA website can be problematic), and now also the StarTech TBT3TBADAP which is recommended at UA site
5) I have installed the Big Sur UA software version 9.14.1
6) I have a PCI Universal Audio card that is installed and functions
7) When I plug a Nexus Google phone into the TB port is can be seen under USB3.1 in System information

Any insight would d be appreciated.

I cannot seem to sign into my App Store any more. All other iServices seems to be working. I am using iMac20,2 serial generated by genSMBIOS with my ethernet MAC address (colon removed) as my ROM. It worked fine until I tried to update my apps a few days ago. Any suggestion?

Update: Search found the solution. Had to delete the networkpreference.plist and restart as there was no en0 adaptor in my network config.

One more questions: when I shutdown my Hackintosh, it automatically restarts. I remember this used to be a problem with clover config, but I am not sure why this happening with my opencore setup.

Update: looks like resetting the networkpreference.plist also solved the problem.

Please try setting BIOS --> Thunderbolt Boot Support --> Boot Once.

I should have noted this earlier, but better late than never:

@jaymonkey,
The OpenCore 0.6.9 EFI that I uploaded for the Z490 Vision G uses iMac19,1 instead of iMacPro1,1. Regarding sleep, what change(s) would you say solved the problem?

@Inqnuam,
Something looks suspicious. The EFI folder I uploaded for Z490 Vision G specifies iMac19,1 but it looks as if HackinDROM app changes it to iMac9,1:

I could have made a mistake, but can you check the two config files for Z490 Vision G in the database to see what System Product Name they are using?
