Hi, I've been trying to install Monterey to ROG Zephyrus G14 laptop these days, and found many tricks to get it working.

Currently not all functions and components work properly ( especially trackpad ), but many important components like CPU and GPU working.
Please check working and not working sections below and tell me if you find solutions to solve problems. And I hope my configurations help who struggling with Ryzen laptops.

Model : GA402RJ ( GA402RK should work too )
CPU : AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS 3.2 GHz ( Rembrandt )
dGPU : AMD Radeon RX 6700S 8 GB ( Navi23 )
Memory : DDR5-4800MHz 16 GB ( 8 GB onboard + 8 GB SO-DIMM )
SSD : Crucial P5 Plus Gen4 1TB ( replaced from original Micron 512GB )
WiFi : Intel AX210 WiFi 6 ( replaced from original MediaTek M.2 2230 card )

My EFI is uploaded to this github repo.

Working
  • CPU with 8 cores and 16 threads enabled
  • dGPU acceleration
  • WiFi ( card replacing required )
  • PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD
  • All USB ports
  • Keyboard
  • Internal speaker ( Sound quality is too bad )
  • Battery status
  • Integrated camera
Not working / Problems
  • Radeon 680 iGPU ( Probably never works )
  • Trackpad ( I2C controlled, no idea to enable AMD I2C device )
  • Sleep / Hibernation
  • Hardware video decode / encode acceleration
  • Hardware LCD backlight brightness control
  • Keyboard backlight brightness control ( Always on )
  • Keyboard Fn hotkeys ( Only sound hotkeys work )
  • macOS Ventura beta ( Stuck at ACPI: sleep states )
  • Vanilla IOPCIFamily.kext / AppleACPIPlatform.kext ( Must be replaced with Big Sur's one )
  • Longer battery life ( only runs for around an hour and a half )

I'm working on the trackpad, but didn't get good results yet.
See github issue in my repo for details.

Can you download Geekbench 5 and test the GPU 6700s. On the Legion 5 Monterey I get 61k on OpenCL and Metal. The 6700s is basically the same as the 6600m while the 6800s is closer to the 6700m

Here is my test score of the GPU on Metal. (BTW, this is a very good score)

You may be using an incorrect version of Airportitlwm.kext.

So I would recommend you remove Airportitlwm.kext from the /EFI/OC/Kexts folder and the corresponding entry in the config.plist.

See if that helps.

Hi
I have a ROG Zephyrus G14 2022 (GA402RJ) and just happened to see this post from you so I tried Hackin but it keeps stopping at 30% of the Apple logo.
Additionally, if you look at the debug file, AAPL: #[EB|LOG:EXITBS:START] is printed

The parts that are different from yours are as follows

My laptop specs
CPU - Ryzen 9 6900hs
SSD - WD SN735 512gb
WiFi - original MediaTek M.2 2230 card

Except for the cpu, ssd, wifi modules, I did the same as the bios version and macos version you talked about and used your efi.

I've been going around the internet for a few days to solve this part, but I haven't So lastly, I ask you for help.
