Hi, Does your BT card show up under BT in system report as chipset BCM94360CD? I just bought a combo with adapter 2nd hand: supposed to be with orig. imac with BCM94360CD chipset, shown in a photo but there is a heatsink on it I don't want to risk removing and it comes up as BCM20702B0 in system report. BT connects to speakers but ipad is impossible with this system or the intel setup under Monterey or even Catalina with the card. Thx!

Sorry it took so long for my reply, here's my full report if it helps:

Many thanks! So it appears to be normal then.

 

[scope666]

Many thanks, I got it sorted meanwhile but can't work out how to delete posts here!

No reason to delete, you never know if it might benefit someone else.

BTW, since it's so late in the month, I'll probably just wait until the next version of OpenCore is released, and I'll post a new build then.

Hi all after the update 12.3.1 the OS not work anymore, with crash randomly. So i have update the last update of OC 0.7.9 but without success. Anyone had the same problem? and know how to fix that? Thank you.

It’s the onboard Intel I225V Ethernet controller issue, to fix it either roll back to 12.2 or see this post for add in Ethernet cards that work OOTB. If you disable the controller in the bios you should be able to boot and not have the crashes.

[GUIDE] Replace non-working Intel I225 with 82574L PCIe NIC (Monterey + OpenCore)

Note: As of April 2022 there is now a community fix for the non-working Intel I225 V Ethernet controller on Gigabyte motherboards when running macOS Monterey. The fix is very easy to apply and simply involves flashing the I225 V ethernet controller with updated/modified firmware using the Intel...

Sorry for missing last month, but here's the brand new OC 0.8.0 as of today. As usual let me know how it goes for you.

craig@Craigs-iMac ocvalidate % pwd
/Users/craig/Downloads/OpenCore-0.8.0-RELEASE/Utilities/ocvalidate
craig@Craigs-iMac ocvalidate % ./ocvalidate /Volumes/EFI/EFI/OC/config.plist

Completed validating /Volumes/EFI/EFI/OC/config.plist in 0 ms. No issues found.

PS Because of the recent Intel I225V Ethernet issue posted above, I'm probably going to stay on Big Sur until it's resolved. (Hopefully)

EDIT: Added to 1st post.

Ok hi guys, i have found one solution for the issue of Ethernet that works fine, you just only need change in the boot-args "dk.e1000=0" in "e1000=0" and is fix, no more crash. For the 0.8.0 EFI thank you so much Scope666, i must test it.

 

[scope666]

OK, here's the latest 0.8.1 build. The big change this month is reset NVRAM and toggle SIP have been changed to drivers. Press the spacebar at the boot menu to expand and see those options. Also I incorporated MacDivanz's ethernet fix above.

craig@Craigs-iMac ocvalidate % pwd
/Users/craig/Downloads/OpenCore-0.8.1-RELEASE/Utilities/ocvalidate
craig@Craigs-iMac ocvalidate % ./ocvalidate /Volumes/EFI/EFI/OC/config.plist

NOTE: This version of ocvalidate is only compatible with OpenCore version 0.8.1!

Completed validating /Volumes/EFI/EFI/OC/config.plist in 6 ms. No issues found.

UPDATE: On my system still running Big Sur, I have to use the old bootarg (under NVRAM) dk.e1000=0 or I lock up. If you're running Monterey you should be good to go as-is.

UPDATE2: Added to first post.

It works 100% - thank you very much for the effort!

Are you on Big Sur or Monterey? Trying to figure out if I'm alone with this boot argument thing.
