Gigabyte Z390 M Gaming build with working NVRAM

I could've sworn I did it already... I don't know what happened...

Anyway, I just posted.

Thanks!
Out of curiosity, how do you update OC?
Do you use HackinDROM or do you update manually?
I noticed that the config.plist is ame for OC 0.9.1 and OC 0.9.2. Usually when I use HackinDROM it will add any new props/fields to the config.plist automatically.

I've never used HackinDROM. I always do it manually.

Assuming config.plist doesn't need changes, the files I update are:
/EFI/BOOT/*
/EFI/OC/OpenCore.efi
/EFI/OC/Drivers/*
/EFI/OC/Tools/*

Of course, updated kexts go in to the Kexts folder.

I bought a Fenvi T919 card for Bluetooth in Ventura. It also has Wi-Fi, but it does not interest me a lot.
Wi-Fi is working, Bluetooth seems disabled.
This card needs to be connected to one of the F_USB ports to use Bluetooth.
Are these enabled on your EFIs? Both? Should I connect to a specific one?
If not, can you help me enable one of it?
I don’t know if it is relevant, but I have two M.2 drives and a dGPU.

Please see post #1 for info on the USB. It's in the EFI configuration notes.

Thanks, my bad. Just switching the USB por fixed it

Hello.
So since I added the new card I decided to update my system, from Big Sur 11.6.5 to Ventura 13.4, from open Core 0.7.2 to 0.9.2.

I use exactly your EFIs, changing just MLB, SystemSerial and SystemUDID in config.plist.

I can install Ventura 13.4 with opencore 0.9.2 but wifi won't work. It shows as active but won't find any network.

I haven't been able to boot open core newer than 0.7.9 with wifi. Some versions won't even boot (like 0.8.0).
With 0.7.9 it all works, but I can't install Ventura with it, it results in some purple lines on boot and it freezes.

Any tips?

My system:
z390m Gaming
i5 9600k
RX580
Fenvi T919
Two M.2 drives
Two SATA Drives
32Gb RAM


Comparing 0.9.2 and 0.7.9 Wifi settings in the system profile results in this:

I don't know anything about the Fenvi T919... It may need AirportBrcmFixup to work.

What I've seen is that with this EFI wifi works, although limited.
I tried replacing IntelMausi on your EFI, but it did not fix it.

Try deleting everything on config.plist > DeviceProperties > Add.

It didn't solve the issue.
I decided to keep your 0.7.9 EFI and I'm currently on Monterey 12.6.6.
Thanks for your patience. In the future I'll upgrade to a Mac Studio or a Mac Mini.
