Points to look at in your OC config.

1. Change the SMBIOS to iMacPro1,1 or MacPro7,1. You should never use a SMBIOS from an iMac system on an AMD desktop Hack.
   1. SMBIOS guidance from Ryzen OC guide.
2. Most B550 systems only require SSDT-CPUR.aml and SSDT-EC-USBX-AMD.aml to boot macOS. Did you create the other SSDT's present in your /EFI/OC/ACPI folder? If not I would recommend removing them, as they may not be set correctly for your system. I would also check the SSDT-EC.aml is set to work with an AMD system, as you could be using one set for an Intel system, given the SMBIOS you are using.
   1. Highlighted SSDT's may not be required to boot macOS.
3. You are using the wrong AMD Core patches for your CPU. You are using the Core count for a 16-core CPU, yours is an 8-core/16-thread CPU. So the 4 x AMD Kernel Patches need to be changed from 10 to 08 to match your CPU cores.
   1. Wrong CPU Core settings.
4. You have an ACPI > Patch entry in your config.plist, which is normally seen on a laptop system, are you sure you need this patch? Did you research the issue and add the patch to your config.plist or have you lifted this from someone else's config?
   1. ACPI > Patch entry.
5. Set Misc > Debug > AppleDebug & Misc > Debug > DisableWatchDog to True/Enabled
   1. Debug entires need to be enabled.
6. Make sure you have the blackosx\BsxM1 boot theme present in the /EFI/OC/Resources/Images folder, as it is called out in your config.plist. Otherwise change this to 'Auto' to use Acidanthera/GoldenGate boot theme.
   1. 
7. Did you create the MimoWhitelist entries in your config.plist? If not then I would recommend removing these 5 x entries, as they are unlikely to work with your system if they are not specific to your setup.
   1. MimoWhitelist entries.

If you haven't already you should disable the Integrated AMD GPU in the bios, as it is not supported in macOS.

I think the above is enough for you to be getting on with, try installing macOS with these changes implemented and see if they help.

thanks will change and try
after trying the setting i get a black screen after i have reset nvram
new config atfer changes attached
sorry about this very new to this

Try the attached OpenCore 0.9.2 EFI, set for a B550 motherboard. 8-core CPU and Navi dGPU. See if this works any better.

HI
and many thanks
got everything working apart from bluetooth

 

[Edhawk]

Good to hear the EFI worked.

Look at creating a USBMap.kext or UTBMap.kext to configure your USB ports in macOS. As the Bluetooth not working is probably related to an incorrect USB connector type being used by the port that the BT module is connected through.

If you already have a USBMap.kext or UTBMap.kext, post a copy of the kext along with a screenshot showing the Hackintool > USB tab, so we can see what has been configured for your system.

hello
here is a screenshot of my usb I have not mapped as yet as I don't know how I have usbtool box on my windows

 

[Edhawk]

If you are using Hackintool in macOS then you don't need USBTooBox, or to map the ports in Windows.

Simply test each port with a USB2, USB3 and/or Type-C USB device and follow these instructions:

1. Insert a USB device in to first port.
2. When the device is recognised in macOS, the port the device is connected through will be highlighted in Green by Hackintool.
3. This will show the speed of the device in the 'Dev Spec' column and the device name in the 'Device' column, as can be seen in your screenshot for USB controller XHC0 > PRT6, where the SanDisk Ultra USB3 device is connected.
4. You should then note down which port is associated with the physical port you connected to, easiest way is to use the 'Comment' column, right-click in the Comment column section adjacent to the newly highlighted row. Type a description for the port, i.e. Case front USB2 left/right top/bottom etc.
5. The important part is setting the correct connector type for each port, get this wrong and the port won't operate correctly.
6. Now eject the USB device from your system, right-click on the desktop icon and select Eject option.
7. You need to do the same USB port discovery for each case port and Rear I/O port, using a USB2 device and a USB3 device.

Just a note: the Type-C port will have a virtual USB2 port, 2 x USB2 ports if the connector is not using a switch (explained below). It is OK to delete/omit these ports if you don't plan to use them. Just don't make them active with the wrong connector type.

Same goes for any other ports that are either not used/activated, they can and should be removed from your USB configuration to prevent any issues.


Your B550i Aorus Pro AX motherboard has the following USB ports:

CPU:

1. 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports on the back panel - Connector Type - USB3 (3)

Chipset:

1. 1 x USB Type-C™ port on the back panel, with USB 3.2 Gen 2 support - Connector Type - Type-c (10).
   • I say this because there are 4 x Type-C ports shown in the screenshot you provided above but only 1 x physical Type-C port, which usually means that the port doesn't use a switch.
   • The way to tell if a Type-C port uses a switch or not is by inserting the Type-C device, noting the port that is highlighted.
   • Then eject the Type-C device.
   • Then flip the Type-C device 180° and reinsert the device in to the Type-C connector.
   • If the same port is highlighted, then the connector uses a switch and should be set as Type-c+sw (9).
   • If a different port is highlighted, then the connector doesn't use a switch and should be set as Type-c (10).
2. 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port (red) on the back panel - Connector Type - USB3 (3)
3. 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports available through the internal USB header - Connector Type - USB3 (3)
4. 2 x USB 2.0/1.1 ports available through the internal USB header - Connector Type - Internal (255)

Additional Internal ports:

1. The ITE Device should also be set with connector Type - Internal (255).
2. The Intel WiFi/BT card will be connected via an M.2 connector that incorporates a USB2 port for the bluetooth module, this will need to be set with Connector Type - Internal (255)

Just remember that your Gigabyte motherboard doesn't have any physical USB2 ports, just USB3, Type-C and Internal ports, so none of the ports should ever be set as USB2 (0).

Any Virtual USB2 ports, i.e. a USB2 port served by a physical USB3, Type-C or USB3 Header, will always need to match the parent port when being set with a connector type. So a USB2 port served from a USB3 physical port would be set with connector type USB3, never USB2.

The two images below should help you understand which ports areavaailable and where they are located on your motherboard.

hi
thanks for all the help
i have just installed favi t919 card everthing was working apart from bluetooth before i installed the fevi card now i can't boot into my hackintosh it stops at this point can anyone help

 

[Edhawk]

Is this the same mini-ITX system you were using previously?
It only has one PCIe x16 slot, so how have you installed the Fenvi T919 WiFi/BT card when the RX 6600 is occupying the sole PCIe slot?
Are you trying to boot the system using NootedRed.kext and the CPU's Radeon Graphics?
If that is the case have you edited your OC setup to reflect this significant component change?

 

[t.langley]

hi thanks for the reply
no i got a new motherboard upgraded to the asus asus rog strix b550-f
ever thing was working great with the efi folder you gave me to try just no Bluetooth so i got the add on card
then could'nt boot back into the hackintosh so done a clean in stall and i get stuck on that screen now

 

[Edhawk]

That motherboard is also a mini-ITX board.
It only has one PCIe slot, so how are you mounting/installing the Fenvi T919 WiFi/BT card?
Have you removed the RX 6600 dGPU?
Are you using the Radeon Graphics from the CPU?

this is the motherboard i have now

 

[Edhawk]

OK, my mistake. I got confused with the Gigabyte board. For some reason I thought you started with an MSI motherboard, but that obviously wasn't the case.

If you remove the Fenvi card does the system Boot?
Or has something else changed?
Have you swapped any PCIe cards around while installing the WiFi/BT card, i.e. to better locate the Fenvi card and avoid cable clashes with the antenna?

You'll need to update your patches, you currently have 19, the latest patch contains 21 entries. Add revpatch=cpuname,pci,sbvmm, you can remove this arg once update is installed.
