Anyone know why I cannot enable SIP?  I have 


<key>csr-active-config</key>
<data>AAAAAA==</data>

and I see


> nvram -p
csr-active-config	g%00%00%00

but when I check, I get


>csrutil status
System Integrity Protection status: disabled.

I don't know what else to check/try.

 

Maybe, You've to reset NVRAM after this change. Just my opinion.

Xcode remains the best option to edit plist files because this is Apple's used files. 

You are right and that's why I chose Xcode for editing first in place but lately, when I use Xcode it starts to convert <integer> to <real> and giving this error while boot "Failed to parse real field of type 1". I create a new config.plist and still giving the same error. And I don't know how to fix this problem on Xcode. But I create the same config files with the same settings on ProperTree "Failed to parse real field of type 1" error gone. Why Xcode doing that I don't get it?

xcode is fine yes but there has been an issue with saving in the ESP a few others have encountered this issue as well so we found that plist editor pro a better option

is there any timeout option for error seeing? For example, I am getting this error 'Failed to parse real field of type 1' before the boot picker, but it is passing extremely fast there is no time to read. 

 

I set up this way but still fast cant read anything;

 

Under Debug;

DisableWatchDog YES

DisplayDelay 100

 

But I am not sure these are the correct option for my needs.

It means you have a problem with an entry in your config file. Either it's in the wrong place, or has an invalid field.

Thanks, that worked.  Used the "CleanNvram.efi" tool to do it.

 

NP. OC does support proper Apple shortcuts for cleaning it (OPT + CMD + P + R). Another way is using Hackintool (NVRAM tab). Yet another way is using Terminal (nvram -c for a total wipe or you can use nvram -d x and delete specific entries, where 'x' is the specific variable).

100 microseconds are very small time.

try saving a DATA entry with latest Xcode. it will not allow you to save and sometimes removes that part of the code tree. a simple edit like changing your layout id becomes an issue.

Really? All you tell about Catalina? Or there are cases of initially bad plists?

I worked with Xcode since v2.4 and never encountered such problems.

They are talking about the way Xcode handles some fields (like the data field). 

 

Xcode:

Pretty trivial to change the value on PED. Not so much in Xcode. So yeah, for the majority of people, PED is a much better way to handle Hack plists. Not like they are anything special (binary plists). Just a basic text file. Notepad works just as well and you can use Hackintool to convert between Hex, Binary, etc.

Yes really. Catalina and latest Xcode. It is not a bad plists problem. Cause I test it in multiple ways. Xcode eventually at some point converts <integer></integer> to as a <real></real>

You probably just accidentially type or copy a period/dot

Data 0300983E is not the same as 0x0300983E because of endianness. It is 0x3E980003.

Sure you use right value.

I'm running a GA-z87-UD5h Haswell machine.  I've got it mostly working now on OpenCore except sleep.  I've tried toggling ProtectCsmRegion to YES, but that works even less.  Basically if my machine timeouts to sleep or manually sleeps it sometimes doesn't wake up and needs a hard reset (power button).

You must also update your config.plist. Many parametre places changed on v0.5.6. 

 

Update BOOT folder

Update OpenCore.efi

Update Drivers

If you are using any Tools Update those too

for ICH7/8/9/10 and some other we need to patch 

AppleAHCIPort 40600200 to 00000000 

or change SATA device-id to ICH6 8126

Helpful is reading about "the things you need", not using my EFI folder, because DSDT, SSDT, network , graphics and audio codec are completely different - if you do not use exactly the same configuration

 

Hello,

My HDDs don’t work in Catalina, only SSDs. I have a Westmere system (Xeon x5675) and Intel IHC10. That hardware gives problems with AppleAHCIPort.kext in new OSX versions. I’ve tried the patch (40600200 -> 00000000) on Clover and Opencore and no luck. My Hdds disks don’t initialize. My other option was to install the AppleAHCIPort.kext v.328 in the Library/Extensions folder but the result was a Catalina dead with boot error (Clover and Opencore).

How can I change the SATA device-id? I will lost performance because of the change?

 

Other solutions are welcome! Thanks all!!!
