OCAuxiliaryTools VS bugtracker

I did the upgrade using a mix of the classic Dortania guide + Open Core Auxiliary Tools (OCAT) which is super useful to be honest.

Use this. It checks your config. Updates kext and OC. https://github.com/ic005k/OCAuxiliaryTools

Your config.plist don't match with your OC version. Use OpenCoreAuxiliaryTool or ProperTree to update oc and plist.

Side note: I only started to use OCAuxiliaryTools today to make things easier. ProperTree was getting a little hard to follow some time =)

Maybe give OCAT (https://github.com/ic005k/OCAuxiliaryTools) a try. I did a 0.7.x to 0.8.7 a while back without incident as well as just bumping to 0.8.9 the other day.

Friendly reminder there’s this cool OpenCore Auxiliary Tools app with GUI to effortlessly update your opencore

I've followed this guide on (https://github.com/valnoxy/t440p-oc) and using OCAT(https://github.com/ic005k/OCAuxiliaryTools) to edit config.plist and validate

Shot in the dark, but it could be broken TRIM on the drive? Samsung drives are notoriously buggy with MacOS (with a few exceptions). See here and read on.

Do you mind trying to deactivate AppleCpuFmCfgLock and AppleXcpmCfgLock in your config.plist (Kernel) but also add those 2 kext : https://github.com/dortania/bugtracker/issues/190 (CpuFriendDataProvider.kext) along with its dependency CpuFriend.kext? https://github.com/acidanthera/CPUFriend

Phison controllers used to be great but many have broken TRIM in Monterey and higher.

Recently I needed to upgrade my drive, and after reading this: https://github.com/dortania/bugtracker/issues/192 I decided on a WD Black SN770. I wanted to make sure it was a drive that behaved well with MacOS. This Github thread also calls out the Phison E12 as being troublesome.

You might be hitting an issue with the “trim” firmware implementation on your nvme drive. Unfortunately the Samsung 970 pro has a buggy/badly implemented trim algorithm that macos seems to hit on boot. The hackint*sh community has reported on it for a while now: see https://github.com/dortania/bugtracker/issues/192 Unfortunately I haven’t heard of any fixes, accept the longer boot times (the more time the system has been running for last since the last boot, the longer the next boot will be as there will be more block to for the trim algorithm to sift though.) Or replace it with a different / more supported model. The attached link should help with know models. Good luck.

I think this is the page you need: https://github.com/dortania/bugtracker/issues/192

GPU: AMD RX6600 is fully supported by Apple. Check this for further information on the support for the RX6600 on macOS. You should add this in boot-args:
