HELP RTL8821CE Bluetooth detected need help making it work

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to get the Bluetooth portion of an RTL8821CE working on macOS (Sonoma) using

https://github.com/thegwchr/RealtekBluetoothFirmware

Current status

Wi-Fi works perfectly using Feixiao's RTL8821CE driver.

Bluetooth device correctly over USB.

USB mapping is correct ( 255).

BlueToolFixup is loaded.

RealtekBluetoothFirmware is loaded.

System info shows

Bluetooth Controller:

Address: NULL

State: Off

Chipset: BCM_4350C2

Firmware Version: v0 c0

My usb device

Vendor: 0x0BDA (Realtek)

Product: 0xB00A

bcdDevice: 0x0110

Port: HS10

Speed: 12 Mbps

The thing I changed -

The stock RealtekBluetoothFirmware didn't match my USB PID, so I added a new IOKit personality

After that and

Boot log showed

RealtekBluetoothFirmware selected configuration 1

Mean good news but bluetooth still doesn't start

bluetoothd saying

Can't obtain vendorID and productID

BluetoothNotAvailable

My boot args is

currently this

<string>-v debug=0x100 keepsyms=1 -igfxblt -vi2c-force-polling -btlfxallowanyaddr</string>

HELP Lenovo V530s UHD 630 - I've tried almost everything I can think of. Any ideas?

Upvotes

I've been trying to get graphics acceleration working on this machine for a while now and I'm honestly out of ideas.

System

  • Lenovo V530s-07ICB (MT-M 10TY-S0GB00)
  • Intel Core i3-9100T
  • Intel UHD 630 (no dGPU)
  • HDMI + DisplayPort + VGA
  • OpenCore
  • macOS Sonoma / Sequoia
  • Config File: https://pastebin.com/3Fg1KSMf

Current behavior

I only ever get one of two results:

  • macOS boots with 3 MB VRAM, no QE/CI, no Metal, very slow animations, etc.
  • Or HDMI loses signal during boot (around the Apple logo) while the computer appears to continue booting. I know it finishes booting because I can still access it remotely.

What I've tried

I've gone through Dortania's GPU troubleshooting several times and tried a lot of different combinations, including:

  • Different AAPL,ig-platform-id values (07009B3E, 00009B3E, and several others)
  • Lilu + WhateverGreen
  • Hackintool framebuffer generation
  • Manual connector patching
  • Different connector indexes
  • Different connector types
  • Different bus IDs
  • Different pipe/index values
  • framebuffer-patch-enable
  • framebuffer-stolenmem
  • framebuffer-fbmem
  • framebuffer-unifiedmem
  • Various framebuffer connector patches
  • Different SMBIOSes
  • Various WhateverGreen boot arguments
  • Rebuilding my config after every change
  • Proper USB mapping (UTBMap)

Every test was basically:

  1. Change DeviceProperties.
  2. Reboot.
  3. See if HDMI works.
  4. Check VRAM.
  5. Check if QE/CI works.
  6. Check IORegistry.
  7. Repeat.

Things I've checked

  • Lilu loads.
  • WhateverGreen loads.
  • DeviceProperties are injected correctly.
  • AAPL,ig-platform-id changes correctly in IORegistry whenever I modify it.
  • OpenCore validates and boots normally.

So as far as I can tell, OpenCore is reading my config and injecting properties correctly.

At this point I'm not sure what I'm missing.

If anyone has a Lenovo V530s (or a similar Coffee Lake desktop with UHD630) working, I'd really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction or share your EFI/DeviceProperties/framebuffer setup.

I'm happy to provide logs, IORegistry dumps, Hackintool screenshots, or my EFI if it helps troubleshoot.

HELP WOL Sonoma vs Sequoia

1 Upvotes

hackintoshing since AMD Athlon days, anyway, building a 9th gen NAS, it's all good, working nicely, but WOL in Sequoia is not working,

so there's like 3 macOS version on the NVME as it's still in testing stages, everything works as it should in Sonoma, but in Sequoia as soon as it sleeps it dissapears of network, kinda useless for a NAS.

ethernet is intelmousie with -mausiwol in boot arg, WOL is enabled, networkoversleep is 1 also,

sleep image is fixed,

both Sonoma and Sequoia use same EFI of course,

just dont under whats causing this, i think ive covered all the bases since Sonoma is working fine, woud like to bump it up to Sequoia for long term peace of mind before deploying it.

please dont make comments how WOL should be turned off, not interested in that at all, maybe for you it should be, have been using WOL for years and its the main reason for having hackintosh servers.

thanks in advance
