First of all: thank you all.
Okay, you can try this one, this works with my current build:
The problem with this one is that it is designed for a different laptop. For example, I don't need ecenabler.kext (there's a new version), notouchid.kext, nor xcci-unsupported.kext. And the usbports.kext is mapped for your laptop model, the configuration will be different in mine. I can just delete those, and replace usbports (or just don't use it at all as I don't need to use it in my current build), but you also use some SSDTs I don't need, and have a couple of useless quirks enabled (applecpupmcfglock is for old processors...)
or you can try my Monterey efi in the GUIDE section. everything works. been up for 2 days getting it sorted out
I know you mentioned that everything works, but you have too many aml files, too many kexts, and some useless quirks. I'm trying to have an install as clean as possible. And as with another's EFI, your EFI is for a different system, so it lacks some patches I need, and have many that I don't need.
Hello. We have the same laptop. Try my EFI folder. Apparently we need a watevergreen update.
Not the same laptop, you have an HP. I don't know why you have smcdellsensors.kext as you don't need it. BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext is only for Big Sur, must be replaced with bluetoolfixup.kext on Monterey. Applecpupmsfglock quirk is for old processors, syncruntimepermissions is not needed, and so on.
What I can see is that people are able to update to Monterey without many problems, like you all, and even with not optimized EFI folders. Quirks that are not needed, bloated SSDTs, kexts that are not for their systems (and even old kexts instead of the latest versions)... And hey, it's OK, don't fix it if it's not broken, but what is puzzling me is that I don't know why I can't update like everyone else, if I don't have too many patches, I only have one aml, the kexts are up to date (and I only use those relevant for my system) and I'm testing quirks to use as few as possible. I'm sure there is just ONE thing messing it all, and I need to find what it is.
