This guide is an iteration of this one for Monterey/Ventura
It might help also others to enable the Wifi (Sonoma wifi not working) and Bluetooth (Sonoma bluetooth not working) as this is hard to find what is needed for Sonoma as of today.

working:
- iGPU HD620 full accelleration
- audio with microphone
- camera
- wifi
- bluetooth
- airplay to mac
- screen mirroring from iphone/ipad
- handoff+continutity
- imessages
- HDMI Out (only full HD resolution no 4k)
- 3 USB ports (1x 2.0 2x3.0)
- touchpad with gestures
- brightness keys (with karabiner)
- volume keys (native)
- sleep/wake

not working/not tested:
- HDMI Audio (not sure, not interested in testing it)
- the charging USB port (works as usb3 only)
- filevault/encrypted disk boot
- card reader (should work oob)

config is for OC 0.9.5

You need a Sonoma compatible SMBIOS - MacbookPro 15,2

ACPI

Generate the SSDT-USBX.aml using Hackintool and copy the .aml file to ACPI folder on the EFI partition

KEXTS

You need these kexts in this versions or newer

and in this order

Block this kext and use these kernel quirks

BOOT FLAGS

Your boot flags might wary as these are based on my Broadcom Wifi Card / Sonoma Broadcom BCM43602

You can do the basic installation without these kexts

and with csr-active-config 00000000

After that you need to download and enable those kexts and download OCLP

You need the OCLP to enable the WIFI. With the kexts you will see the wifi adapter but you will not see any networks / wifi networks empty
After you run OCLP and do the Post-install root patch the Wifi will start to work.


Attached is the config - do not forget to change your model serial number in the Platforminfo section
