This is my first time creating a EFI for hackintosh but Macos gives me a blocked sign, I tried doing what dortainia said in the trouble shooting guide but it didn’t work. I have USBToolBox Mapping but still not working does anyone know how to fix this?

Specs:
Ryzen 7 7700X
Radeon 570
SMbios: MacPro7,1
 
Probably, as it may not contain all the kexts you need in the Kexts folder; the SSDTs in the ACPI folder won’t be custom for your motherboard’s DSDT.aml; I can’t recall if there is a custom USB kext (probably not one compatible with Tahoe).

If it boots the system in to Sequoia it can be used from the EFI partition on your macOS drive, so you don’t need to use the USB installation drive.

It boots into Sequoia’s installer but it freezes at about 19 minutes left, I tried making my custom SSDT’s, Remaking the USBMap.kext but still nothing.
 
Could be the macOS installer is damaged, it happens often enough to not be seen as unusual.
  1. Make sure you save a copy of your booting OC EFI folder.
  2. Erase the macOS installation USB.
  3. Delete the macOS app from your Mac or other Hack.
  4. Download a new copy of the macOS dmg/app.
    1. Using the same app is likely to just cause the same failure.
  5. Restore the macOS Installer to your USB pen drive.
  6. Add your booting EFI folder to the EFI partition on your USB pen drive.
Then run the installation again, use Disk Utility to erase the previous partial macOS installation, see if it gets past the 19min remaining point with the new USB installer.

I did all those but it still froze at 19 mins.

Well I doubt that the issue is in your OpenCore setup. If an issue arises that late in the process it will normally be something related to the macOS installation app/dmg.

I switched to my mac to download the full installer and now it’s stuck at 12 minutes with my mouse frozen instead of 19 minutes.

Also your right os installers do have wrong estimated times and may take longer than expected but the thing that’s making me feel off is that my mouse is freezing and keyboard.
 
Have you tried disabling WhateverGreen.kext (temporarily) during the installation?
Which version of WhateverGreen are you using?
Have you disabled the AMD IGPU in the bios?
Have you tried using your keyboard & mouse in a different USB port?

The issue with 12 mins remaining is a lot more common, than getting stuck with 19 mins remaining. But still usually relates to an issue with the installation drive, rather than the OC setup.
