- Nvidia Geforce 930M (Optimus Tech) not supported by hackintosh.
- in Monterey only one side, Airdrop/Handoff/Continuity from Hackintosh to iPhone doesn't work, but iPhone to Hackintosh is work, because Apple has been actively working on the Bluetooth stack (bluetoothd) in macOS Monterey, see issues.
- This laptop just have single antenna connector, lol. For pairing bluetooth in chipset DW1550 need dual antenna connectors, so maybe work sometimes not work.
- Sidecar won't showing in System Preferences since this patch.
- Sidecar
- Universal Control
- Card Reader
- Don't use my patch DSDT.aml & SSDT.aml if you have different ACPI Tables / BIOS Version & Model / Freq CPU PM.
- Don't install Monterey if you have chipset Atheros, because Apple fully dropped for Atheros on Monterey. Just install Big Sur and replace the kexts (AirportBrcm*.kext + Brcm*.kext) -> (HS80211Family.kext + Ath3kBT.kext) take it from here.
- I haven't idea for battery when using OC, because so many rename methods in device EC0/BAT0, when rename method battery and landing to SSDT-BATT.aml, the indicator only show to 1%.
- Config OC for Catalina and older, set (MinDate = -1) & (MinVersion = -1) in 'UEFI' -> 'APFS' section, and take from the release page.
- For 10.11-11 you need BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext, for 12 (Monterey) you need BluetoolFixup.kext, choose one and not both.
- You need regenerate serial number for your mac, use Clover/OC Configurator or macserial from OC.
- And many more apps.
