Anyone else notice that Handoff is working from iPad, iPhone or MacBook to Hackintosh Sonoma? My wifi is not working but it seems that Safari, messages etc from these devices show up.

Yea mine was working from installation, strange even though no wifi, maybe something to do with B/Tooth connection??!!

I applied your kexts and exclusion and got the following: a similar IORE (I'm also loading the AirportBrcmFixup kexts as shown at bottom):

Looks promising, I have a feeling the solution is not far away.

Expected behavior since most Handoff functions operate over BT. AirPlay, AirDrop and other Continuity features will require Wi-Fi.

Sonoma beta1 can boot my very old P6TSE hackintoshs without GPU acceleration yet.

USB WiFi and ALC-888 audio are working.

Waiting for newer OCLP to patch my AMD legacy GCN !

You have two WIFI Icons showing!!!! The one is crossed out is not working so the second is the USB WIFI??!!

What USB Dongle is that?

Here to work is necessary use update kexts and -wegbeta on boot-args. @MaLd0n said me about it.

Honestly what he suggested is partially correct, as even with latest stable released kexts, you can boot macOS Sonoma. Just a heads up: every Lilu plugin that is usually injected via OC (e.g. AppleALC, VirtualSMC, WhateverGreen etc), ONLY IF wasn't heavily changed for improving the support on macOS Sonoma, can be loaded via `-lilubetaall` boot-argument, otherwise you'd have to write `-XXXbeta` for each plugin you'd like to inject in beta version.

A clear example of what I'm talking about is this: https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/commit/52ec349e15ef0ca1b345daf4a72dcedfae26e207

Basically each Lilu plugin usually has a `PluginConfiguration` array (I'm not an IOKit expert in any way, but it sums up the concept pretty easily), where among the other things, is specified the MinVersion and MaxVersion where the kext can be injected (usually devs apply these rule as they do heavy testing before releasing for certain major versions of the kext). Using `-lilubetaall` means: for every Lilu plugin, if the major version of the OS is out of the boundaries of MinVersion and MaxVersion of its `kern_start.cpp`, ignore it and allow loading on unsupported OS versions.

Hope this clarifies "why" you installed Sonoma without any issue so far...

Some updates on my journey that started with 3 hours of sleep more or less (thx to 600mg of caffeine intake). Here's what I'm actually """studying""" on:

Before doing these stupid analysis, I ran `kmutil showloaded > OS_CODENAME.txt` both on my stable Ventura 13.4 and macOS Sonoma 14 Beta 1. You can find the txt in the attachments.

Let's start with IO80211LegacyFamily kext, which is missing from macOS Sonoma.
Let's look at the Info.plist which contains the OSBundleLibraries (basically a list of dependencies):

IO80211LegacyFamily has the following OSBundleLibraries:

...
<key>OSBundleLibraries</key>
    <dict>
        <key>com.apple.driver.AppleMobileFileIntegrity</key>
        <string>1.0.1</string>
        <key>com.apple.driver.corecapture</key>
        <string>1.0.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.iokit.CoreAnalyticsFamily</key>
        <string>1.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily</key>
        <string>3.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.iokit.IOSkywalkFamily</key>
        <string>1.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kec.corecrypto</key>
        <string>1.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kpi.bsd</key>
        <string>15.0.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kpi.iokit</key>
        <string>15.0.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kpi.libkern</key>
        <string>15.0.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kpi.mach</key>
        <string>15.0.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kpi.private</key>
        <string>15.0.0</string>
        <key>com.apple.kpi.unsupported</key>
        <string>15.0.0</string>
    </dict>
...

Trying to inject IO80211FamilyLegacy alone raises an error since IOSkywalkFamily cannot be patched (vtable stuff, I don't know, I don't work for Apple nor acidanthera yet)

I tried replacing pretty every networking related kext without any success (probably need root-patching but I want to use vanilla options if possible).

Below a few things I noticed between Sonoma and Ventura (paired Sonoma-Ventura)

<    54   11 0xffffff800249a000 0x16ff4    0x16ff4    com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily (3.4) 3595A42C-1185-344D-AA32-FB2073E2407D <9 8 7 6 3 1>

Next tests I'll do will probably replace IO80211Family from OpenCore, hoping at least it boots and no issue so far pops up. Will keep updated if anything changes

@PoMpIs

Set the processor type to 0 and that might fix the CPU issue.

Correct, in "0" I already had it. It is the same EFI that I use in Ventura which does show the CPU well 🤷‍♂️

Try this in boot args (RestrictEvents 1.1.2 last commit fc446c5):

Another way of adding those parameters is in NVRAM:

I have it like this:

Which is working perfectly in Ventura... Anyway, at night I'll keep trying... It's just that I use that computer very little and when I use it it's usually in Windows

This means that IOSkywalkFamily and IONetworkingFamily must be loaded BEFORE IO80211Family.

The same applies more or less to IO80211FamilyLegacy.

AirportBrcmNIC instead, depends on:

<key>OSBundleLibraries</key>

This means that before AirportBrcmNIC, IOSkywalkFamily, IONetworkingFamily, IO80211FamilyLegacy and mDNSOffloadUserClient must be injected.

IO80211NetBooter instead depends on:

<key>OSBundleLibraries</key>

kmutil analysis

IONetworkingFamily kext seems to be the same both in Ventura and Sonoma Beta 1 except for the UUID (don't know if this plays a role here or not)

<    54   11 0xffffff800249a000 0x16ff4    0x16ff4    com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily (3.4) 3595A42C-1185-344D-AA32-FB2073E2407D <9 8 7 6 3 1>
>    51   11 0xffffff8002c30000 0x16ff4    0x16ff4    com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily (3.4) F349EF33-2C2B-32F4-BE0F-284D3A56E2DF <9 8 7 6 3 1>

mDNSOffloadUserClient also seems to be the same except for the UUID:

<    55    2 0xffffff80026f3000 0x5000     0x5000     com.apple.driver.mDNSOffloadUserClient (1.0.1b8) A660606B-5FC6-35F4-9B2F-B7007A9C4F03 <54 8 6 3 1>

IO80211Family idem:

<    89    1 0xffffff800405a000 0x20a000   0x20a000   com.apple.iokit.IO80211FamilyLegacy (1200.12.2b1) 4C07538B-62EB-3D6D-AEF9-93BCDCF45FAB <88 56 54 27 24 10 9 8 7 6 3 1>
>    89    1 0xffffff80020d0000 0x146ffd   0x146ffd   com.apple.iokit.IO80211FamilyLegacy (1200.12.2b1) 5969C2D2-CF58-3D6E-A372-EB8E49BF3049 <88 53 51 31 27 10 9 8 7 6 3 1>

What I cannot find is IO80211Family which even on Ventura doesn't seem to load.

Currently I'm tired so I think I should get some rest (despite actually on really heavy caffeine intake) but I hope this info can be used to sorting out things from me (when I get well soon, or anyone else, don't care much).

Cheers ❤️

Tried the last things but without root-patching this won't be even possible... As far as I've seen, Wi-Fi stack on macOS is more likely a combination of KEXTs (possibly also DEXTs) and Frameworks (KernelCollections and /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks) and without a proper root-patching (as OCLP does) it will never work...

I abandon the ship of "fixing IO80211FamilyLegacy supported Wi-Fi cards" as I don't see any light out of the tunnel.

Still glad to have learned something about KDK and OpenCore Kernel/Block mechanism

@dreamwhite

What you have done in such a short time is amazing, several of us were really hoping that you would write Eureka at any moment but I see that it is something very complicated.
You already know that in OCLP they are working on it too and it seems that they have a more or less working patch but it is still immature and difficult to apply by the end user.
It's likely that OpenCore will end up with some form of OCLP-style root patching, we'll see.
Thank you for your effort and go to sleep for a long time.

miliuco · June 8, 2023

@PoMpIs

revcpu to enable (1 non Intel or disable, 0 Intel default) CPU brand string patching.
revpatch is to enable patching, revpatch=cpuname for custom CPU name in System Information.
revcpuname=value is for custom CPU name (max 48 characters, 20 or less recommended).

So, revcpu=1 before revpatch=cpuname and revcpuname="i5 13600K Raptor Lake".

Forgotten revcpu in my previous post.

Note that RestrictEvents is also needed when enabling E-cores due to large core count and makes showing the proper CPU name possible.

@dreamwhite One must never disregard the changes of the IOPCIFamily.kext during these attempts. These have often been responsible for malfunctioning devices in the past. Thanks for the effort.

Huawei MateBookX Pro 2018 has also arrived in Sonoma. WiFi workaround is itlwm.kext HliPort, as I'm stuck with Intel wireless. USB install could not boot, so I had to update using the install app and removing USBPorts.kext.

Good afternoon (3:17 PM at my place). Still haven't found a way to get some rest but nevermind. I'm downloading the KDK for macOS 14, to check if IOPCIFamily changed or not. Hope that the only thing changed are just the kexts and not the PrivateFrameworks honestly...

Did I read this right? Broadcom BCM43xx won't work anymore? So I spent 70 USD and waited 2 months on delivery from China for nothing? I guess Ventura is not that bad then, for now... And in the future, gonna switch to windows either way. Hackintosh seems to be breathing it's last breaths.

Cheap intel wifi supported with Itlwm.kext and heliport app works in beta 1

Honestly what he suggested is partially correct, as even with latest stable released kexts, you can boot macOS Sonoma. Just a heads up: every Lilu plugin that is usually injected via OC (e.g. AppleALC, VirtualSMC, WhateverGreen etc), ONLY IF wasn't heavily changed for improving the support on macOS Sonoma, can be loaded via `-lilubetaall` boot-argument, otherwise you'd have to write `-XXXbeta` for each plugin you'd like to inject in beta version.

A clear example of what I'm talking about is this: https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/commit/52ec349e15ef0ca1b345daf4a72dcedfae26e207

Basically each Lilu plugin usually has a `PluginConfiguration` array (I'm not an IOKit expert in any way, but it sums up the concept pretty easily), where among the other things, is specified the MinVersion and MaxVersion where the kext can be injected (usually devs apply these rule as they do heavy testing before releasing for certain major versions of the kext). Using `-lilubetaall` means: for every Lilu plugin, if the major version of the OS is out of the boundaries of MinVersion and MaxVersion of its `kern_start.cpp`, ignore it and allow loading on unsupported OS versions.

Hope this clarifies "why" you installed Sonoma without any issue so far...

Thank you, but im not advanced user, despite being a hackintosh user since 1999, I've always had help from the people at insanelymac. I am proud to be part of this community. I didn't quite understand if what you said was a criticism of him, or a criticism of me. Anyway, I'm here to learn what I can, but I'm not even remotely from the information technology area. Therefore, I can only thank all possible help, including yours. Big hugs to all. My intel wifi is running fine, and the Fenvi T-1919's native bluetooth.

Im not use -lilubetaall, but use this args: -lilubeta -alcbeta -revbeta -wegbeta and works fine since now.

Best regards for all of you

Did Apple fix the Appearance Highlight colour in system settings to display the actual colour selected rather than some other shade?

Highlight Colour Other:

Change to RGB 255,0,255

Result on Ventura highlight looks nothing like the chosen colour Appearance Selected below see highlight also the radio button:

@Max.1974 - Sorry if I am missing something here but is the screenshot in your last post from your Sonoma install also is it from your Hackintosh?

The reason I ask I see you have WIFI working, if it is from your Hack how did you achieve what is eluding the rest of us or am I clutching at straws here.

Thanks for any explanation one way or another. :thumbsup_anim:

Dear friend, @Max.1974 has Intel wifi if I'm not wrong.

EDIT: I'am late, just reading your last post after publishing mine.

There are reports about RealTek, Intel and Atheros WiFi adapters working in Sonoma. It's gonna be one of those adapters.

Thanks a lot my dear friend.

@eSaF my friend, I have Z790 Aorus that have intel wifi and bluetooth onboard. But for Hackintosh completely working Airdrop need Fenvi Broadcom T-1919 or another compatible.

Im install yesterday, and I ask a friend my how put to work intel wireless. Is this project here: https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/itlwm Open Intel Wireless. I need use certificate digital media from Safesign, so im need use dual boot with our "old" and good Ventura. Just for fun im install wireless intel kext and works like a charm. You need kext and HeliPort app. Just like that. I never will be create an illusion from hack : ) ahahahah!!

All the best @miliuco and @eSaF

Thanks all!! Keep going!!!

I already knew about the intel...👍

Two days ago I got a cheap laptop without an operating system, and I have released it with Sonoma. ( @miliuco it sounds like a Medion Akoya to you) ..

It's cheap and made of plastic, it doesn't look very good quality, but it has an i5 10210u, since I received it I've been creating an EFI for it and I only need the Audio, which is an intel smart sound and I don't know if it will be supported by AppleALC ...

For the rest it works very well in Sonoma, even its wiffi intel
