I disabled XMP and BT run when wake up

"disabled XMP" -

Actually, it's quite simple and straightforward.

1. Download Eventscripts from App Store.
2. Download my wakeup-bluetoothfix.scpt (attached), open, and replace "xxx" with your own username and sudo password.
3. Get this scpt into Eventscripts

ive got quite dead-ended, as of 12.2 it seems that hibernate mode 25 breaks waking from sleep, switching back to hibernate mode 3 fixes the issue but now my sleepwatcher script doesnt work.

so i purchased Eventscripts from app store, added my username and pass, and tried to trigger it when waking from sleep, aswel as many other options like screen password unlocked, but it still doesnt work, any ideas?

Do you need to edit the sleepwatcher script to reflect the change to the Hibernation Mode you are now using. Is Hibernation mode 25 coded in to the script?

as i understand it hibernation mode 25 is not specified in the script so it should technically work with any form of wake from sleep AFAIK

Care to post a copy of the script you are using, so we can see what it does contain.

Hi Guys,

I have a small problem.
I have installed Big Sur 11.5.2 with OpenCore 0.77 on my HP EliteDesk 800 G3 DM with a M.2 BCM43224:

• Bluetooth only was working
• Wifi chip is not supported anymore by Big Sur (tried several proposed workaround with no luck)

I replaced the BCM43224 by a BCM94360CS2 (Apple MacBook Air Airport card):

• The card has been detected and recognised OOB
• The bluetooth is working fine
• The wifi chip has been detected but is acting strange:
  • The wifi card cannot detect any signal/list access points
  • Kernel_tasks process started to use CPU resources extensively (>80%)

I understood that the BCM94360CS2 (Apple brand) is supported fully without any use of specific kexts

I have attached my EFI just in case.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help

XhciPortLimit should be disabled after you have setup your usb ports

You might want to try adding AirportBrcmFixup.kext to your /EFI/OC/Kexts folder and config.plist, along with the following boot argument - brcmfx-driver=2 to force the AirPortBrcmNIC.kext to load.

As you are using Big Sur, you also need to specify MaxKernel 19.9.9 for AirPortBrcm4360_Injector.kext, to prevent this injector from working in Big Sur and newer.

Here is a link to download the kext and have a read of the information regarding use of this kext - https://github.com/acidanthera/AirportBrcmFixup

Guys,

I am so sorry and feel so stupid.
I put back the old BCM43224
I replaced the old BCM43224 by the BCM94360CS2 again.
And....the Wifi is working perfectly

Can't explain.

I would like to thank you so much Feartech and Edhawk for your swift reply and support.

Kind regards,

Yop

I just updated to 12.2.1 and have a a Dell 1560 card.

Is this the proper config for the card? I tries as shown below and with last 2 lines delete but still no WiFi or Bluetooth.

Using AirportBRCMFixup 2.1.4 and BRCMPatchRAM 2.6.2

I read the GitHub instruction but clear as mud.
