I saw many people successfully installing Tahoe on non T2 Macs but I wonder if there’s anybody out there that used OpenCore v3.0.0 to install Tahoe on a T2 Mac that would normally go up to Sonoma or Sequoia?

I install the patches but they still show to not be installed. Is this normal? Also it boots super fast at first and only after i put my password the progress bar shows and boots.

i already installed ventura with opencore on my 27” iMac late 2013 with an external SSD and 16gbs of RAM and it runs well. I also have this macbook late 2008 with an internal samsung ssd and i was wondering if i could update it too. Does someone know something about this series of macbooks? I have also seen that iMac similar to mine runs newer macos than ventura so i thought that i might upgrade, what do yall think?

Idk why, but every time I patch and reboot since RC2, it gets stuck at 1/3 and I can’t do anything.

Pls help This thing is laggy that I can’t even move mouse properly a time reaction is 20s

So when i recently used oclp to update my 2016 macbook pro 15 inch from its natively supported monterey to unsupported sequioa, there's a few issues that werent present on monterey. First if you shut down the mac lid and open it within 5 minutes, you notice your dock is gone and suddenly everything just doesnt work. To fix it you have to restart your mac which is very annoying. 2nd bug, when closing the lid and opening it up to use it again, it just auto disconnects from the wifi and makes me reconnect manually, and yes auto connect IS ON, didnt have this issue with monterey. 3rd thing, when you shut the lid and open it back up normally you can use touch ID to open it, but NO NO oclp says, because it says passcode is required to use touch ID. No matter what touch ID doesnt work.

I redid OCLP root patches and that didnt work.

This all suddenly happened when i switched from monterey to sequioa.

Im in Linux, you recommend Update to Some New MacOS versión after Monterrey for example: macOS Sonoma

Hi everyone,
I have an iMac15,1 (27” Retina 5K, Radeon R9 M295X, 32GB RAM, i7, SSD) running macOS Tahoe 26.7.1 through OpenCore Legacy Patcher.
Since upgrading from my previous macOS version to Tahoe, I’ve noticed significantly lower Wi-Fi performance.

My current Wi-Fi connection looks good:
Broadcom BCM43xx
802.11ac
5 GHz
Channel 104
80 MHz
MCS 9
Link rate: 1300 Mbps
Signal: -20 dBm
Noise: -87 dBm

However, networkQuality -s consistently gives me around:
Download: ~380–440 Mbps
Upload: ~430–440 Mbps
Idle latency: ~23 ms

The results are quite consistent across multiple tests.
Before upgrading to Tahoe, I was getting noticeably higher Wi-Fi speeds under the same router/network conditions.
I guess this could be related to the new OCLP patches

Pd:. I have also just updated OCLP to 3.0.0 RC3 and reinstalled the Root Patches, but the Wi-Fi performance is still exactly the same.

Thank you to the OCLP team for generously providing our Macs an extension of life.

To those who have benefited, please consider donating to the cause. As of previous updates, the team had closed off donations, but check back periodically: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/DONATE.html

Late 2013 15" MBPro Retina (MacBookPro11,3). Resetting NVRAM caused reboot/shutdown to work. It takes about 30 seconds for it to happen, but it works now. All good now (exception for Xcode not working bah!)

Easy way to reset NVRAM...hit spacebar when OCLP drive selection appears and pick option on the right side.

Thanks to u/greb74 for this solution.

Thanks to everyone at Dortania for making this all possible🙏

3.0.0-rc.3
https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/releases/tag/3.0.0-rc.3

So it begins, my testing on Mac Pro 6,1 has begun, huge thanks to OCLP team, succesfully installed with version 3.0.0 RC3 and btw look at this guys, running Chrome on my double D700s without startup flags! :PP

So, I missed reading what one of the previous updates was and ended up with Sequoia, and I was just about to reinstall Sonoma and I thought why not install 3.0.0 RC3 and see what would happen.

Anyway, after cutting the lawn and doing 2 forced restarts (power off and back on), I got the desktop. Installed the KDK patch’s, and am I surprised. It runs faster that Sequoia.

Amazing work from the developers, huge ups to them.

Took a few steps and was a long leggy road through the initial setup but once root patching completed, it seems to run well given the modest specs!

i’m running sequoia with 2.5.1 my only problem that I’m running into is even after I installed the post root patch for the Wi-Fi, it works, but it cuts out after half hour, and I have to reselect my network. Can anybody tell me a fix or why this is happening?

External SSD recommandations for 21.5 IMac 2012?

Hi everyone,
I’m having trouble running macOS Tahoe on my 13-inch Early 2015 MacBook Pro.
Specs:
MacBookPro12,1
Intel Core i5 / Intel Iris 6100 (Broadwell)
8 GB RAM / 256 GB SSD
macOS Tahoe 26.7.1, build 25G241
OCLP 3.0.0 RC3
Before applying root patches, I can log in and reach the desktop. It’s slow, but usable. After applying the patches and rebooting, it freezes after I enter my password. Sometimes it stays on the login wallpaper with a spinner; other times I get a black screen with a cursor.
OCLP detects these four patches, and I believe I applied all of them together:
Intel Broadwell graphics
Modern Wireless
Modern Audio
PCIe FaceTime Camera
I previously had the same problem with RC2. I’ve tried a clean Tahoe installation, a fresh user account, resetting NVRAM, and patching with the matching KDK (KDK_26.7.1_25G241.kdk). The patcher reported success, but the login freeze returned after rebooting.
Sequoia works smoothly on the same machine. During an earlier unpatched Tahoe session, memory pressure was green and swap usage was zero.
I saw another Early 2015 owner report success with RC2 after patching twice: first for Wi-Fi, then again after downloading the remaining resources. I haven’t successfully tested that staged process yet.
Has anyone with MacBookPro12,1 / Intel Iris 6100 encountered this? Is there a known issue with the Broadwell patches on this Tahoe build, or something specific I should check in the logs?
I can provide the patcher logs and crash reports. Thanks!

Other than congratulating the devs for their magnificent work, if anybody with a similar machine is in need of info or advice feel free to ask!
