Keyboard/mouse, rebooting and freezing issue when setting up macos Monterey.
I have mapped the usb's (I think), I just plugged my Magic Keyboard with a usb-a to lightning to every port on the nuc including the usb-c with a usb-c to lighting cable. i used https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool/releases/tag/0.2 for this.

Asus B360M - i3 9100F - RX 550 - Sabrent Rocket - Fenvi T919 - Ventura 13.3.1
Precisely, I went through the guide once more, discovered some new tools (like USBToolBox for example) then I did USB mapping + SSDTs (using SSDTTime) by hand (I was not sure that I did them properly in the first place, 3 years ago). Then with those clean SSDTs & kext, I used my old EFI and OCAT to merge everything together. Double checked everything at the end just to be sure that I did not forget a thing and that OCAT did not mess up anything.

Big Sur Ryzentosh boot looping to macOS Installer
1) On your EFI folder under OC/Tools you are missing Openshell.efi 2) In your OC/Kexts folder what is the Whatevername file?? 3) In your OC/Kexts folder the UTBDefault.kext must not be there. Make sure you made the USB Mapping correctly USBToolBox

Ryzentosh ~ Ventura 13.3 ~ Ryzen 5 5600x ~ RX 5600XT ~ B550 ~ OC 0.9.1 ~
As for the USB mapping that was a pain for me.. My motherboard has onboard BT/WIFI card Intel AX200, which was ..hmm .. OK for Hand Off and enabling wi-fi. But i wanted real native Mac experience. So i extracted the BCM94360CD Apple Airport Card from my old (screen damaged) iMac late 2013. Ordered a PCIe adapter from AliExpress and as i was for it to arrive i was making USB mapping to ensure that even the Internal USB Headers of the motherboard are recognised correctly from MacOS. I made 3 different USB maps .. One from Hackintool app. One within Macos and one on Windows 11. That was because my motherboard has ONLY 2 USB headers which both are occupied ( one for the front usb panel of the case and one the pump of the AIO ) so i ordered a USB header splitter along with the PCIe adapter (the truth is that i ordered 2 different kind/brands splitters just for sure that one of them will work.) For the result.. USB mapping from Hackintool app was crap. USb mapping from within MacOS was not accurate and the one that worked was Windows 11 side USB mapping method using USBToolBox. Link : https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool/releases The only thing i needed to do for the BCM94360CD to work was to remove the wifi/bt related kexts.

Given up trying to hack the Latitude 7390 2-in-1.
do you have both USBToolBox.kext and UTBMap.kext? you need both USBToolBox.kext and UTBMap.kext for USBToolBox to function. https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext

Deferred Rematching Count 0
One immediate problem I see is the lack of a USB map, make it with USBToolBox.

ALC294 Messy Audio (Crackles, Boops & more) Comet Lake Hackintosh
I have a Comet Lake laptop (i7-10510U & UHD 620) with the ALC294 Audio Card. I've tried all of the layout ID's listed on https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs. But all of them sound the same. I'm also using macOS Monterey... Any fix?

MacOS stuck on an apple logo with progress bar.
Do not enter the digits of your audio codec as your alcid. For example: "alcid=298" (ALC298). Use appropriate alcids from the AppleALC wiki: https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs

My first ever Hackintosh!!!! (on Microsoft Surface laptop go)
Use linux to find out your audio codec (ALC...) and use this to narrow down the layout ids you could use. Try all of them and see which one works. Good luck!

How do i install alc-verb and use dump-coeff script?
So..i have a Lenovo Legion 7i Laptop with Realtek ALC287 audio codec, i've used layout-id 11 and 21, (21 seems to be better, since an internal and external mic device seems to be appearing on the System Preferences) however, although slider, volume, works...i still got no audio (both input and output), been surfing around and got to this link : https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Dumping-processing-coefficients
