[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

Another great update, Casey. I have the Fractal Design R6 case with front ports and I am switching to using the Intel WiFi (instead of Fenvi up to now).

I see both USBInjectAll-071 and InjectAll-076 in the EFI.

Which one should I replace when I remap the ports for the R6? I was planning on using the kext generated by USBMap.

Well just to follow up. I got ahold of F9f BIOS, and now I have working Thunderbolt and USB c ports. My Thunderbolt 4 hub works perfectly. Sonnet Thunderbolt 4 Echo 5 hub.

That’s good news dude!

To use USBPorts.kext, simply disable both of the USBInjectAll kexts and the USB port map SSDT SSDT-UIAC-DESIGNARE-Z390-V7.aml.

I'm having trouble with my iMessage forwarding texts to my Mac. Is that a kext issue or Big Sur setting?

I've gone into my phone and allowed it to forward it to my machine and also have pushed the 'sync now' in my iMessage preferences.

Anyone else have had this issue before?

I had the same symptoms on a new MacBook Pro and finally resolved it by unchecking and rechecking iMessage under Settings/AppleId/iCloud. I think the standard advice is to sign out of and back into iCloud

It could take x minutes or hours before the device get really synced with iCloud

I'm using one for my single display (3440x1440 @60Hz) on the Sapphire RX580 8GB: Mostly, it runs at around 35W instead of 80W. It'll ramp up in power usage as needed. I have two patches because once in a while, I'll drop in a 2nd identical RX580 into Slot 2.

IIRC, CaseySJ either wrote or modified the original patch.

Ah.. Thank you for the info.

Hi guys - can any one help with a Ethernet port issue. My port (I think maybe both) on the Z390 has dropped a few times saying cable unplugged. It has also started a connection at 1gbe but then randomly seems to drop back and connect at 100Mb. Unplugging a few times seems to get it working again. I have checked cables and replaced patch cables, full Cat6 from the Hackintosh to the router. I have been up and running a while now so not sure if I should be updating ethernet drivers or not?

Some questions / suggestions:

• Which version of macOS?
• Which version of OpenCore?
• When you say it drops to 100Mbps, how are you determining the speed of connection?
• Try deleting NetworkInterfaces.plist and rebooting. The file will be regenerated on boot. Simply search this thread for that keyword to find details.
