Hello guys, I'm using Patched Sur and OC0.59 with CL (usb boot) to have brightness control on my iMac 2011 / GPU K610M.
It worked perfect until I updated my macOS yesterday (Patched Sur 1.0.1) . It hangs on Sleep!
I switched to the Oc 0.7.4 and now I have Sleep working but I haven't got Brightness control.
What can I do?

Best to go here for Monterey issues. I had to post install graphics on my 2012 macbook pro.
I'm on Monterey but maybe I can get help, I'm with Intel hd4000, I'm putting the kext with the bless, and works until beta 10 where it says operation not permitted, I've tried also in 12.1 and same, anyone knows how to fix it:

Hi all,
I own a MacPro 3,1 and I'd like to install Big Sur.
I have read up there, that the wifi/bt card must be changed. Do you know any card to install and works with Big Sur in my 3,1 Mac?
Today I'm running @dosdude1 Catalina and my MacPro 3,1 has the ROM patched by @dosdude1 too.
Thank you all in advance.

Roger that. Thanks man.
Do each version of macOS Big Sur contain the whole installation?

Should I be using this method? By Mr. Macintosh OR just download the Big Sur installer App to the Applications folder and then launch it from there?

Hello Everyone. I just did an OTA update on my 2010 MBP6,2.
A few weirds things are happening.
-I can't connect to an external display
-I can't adjust the brightness of my display
-It doesn't seem like the computer goes to sleep
I originally used Open Core Legacy Patcher 2.4 to install Big Sur on this laptop and I've done a 2 or 3 OTA updates with no issues. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I followed this comprehensive guide to install Big Sur on my CMP. There is a lot to read but it is worth it...

Having a bit of a problem trying to install BigSur 11.2.2 on a SSD in a SATA bay on my cMP.
I inadvertently hosed my working BigSur SSD drive when I tried updating to 11.6.1 via OTA. I reformatted the SSD and created the BigSur media installer using Apple’s instructions onto a 32Gb thumb drive.
I have RefindPlus installed, but regardless of whether I use
Should I instead remove the RefindPlus EFI Chainloader and use OCLP instead? Should/must SIP be disabled? Looking for someone else who uses RefindPlus who has managed to install BigSur to learn how they got it done.

I have RefindPlus installed, but regardless of whether I use
OC, OC_ALT or native boot I can’t get the installer to work. I did see the slightly darker grey install screen at one stage but like all other attempts I can’t get any further than halfway across the Apple logo progress bar. Should I instead remove the RefindPlus EFI Chainloader and use OCLP instead? Should/must SIP be disabled? Looking for someone else who uses RefindPlus who has managed to install BigSur to learn how they got it done.
Follow the other's foot steps and go with the OCLP...😅
Make sure to download the latest OCLP at https://nightly.link/dortania/OpenC...build-app/rdrand/OpenCore-Patcher-TUI.app.zip
The latest OCLP 0.3.1 will be fine for Big Sur installation. The link above is more for the Monterey.
All the settings will be done by OCLP automatically. You don't need to worry about yourself, generally speaking.
I would use OCLP. I followed the steps outlined in the link I provided and did not have any issue installing Big Sur on my 2012 CMP. In fact I just rebooted my computer to make sure OS11 boots up thru OCLP and when my computer boots up, a window comes up showing which drives to boot from and I select my BS drive and the computer resumes booting up and I'm in BS once I put in my password...
it's about the time to remember the OCLP version by downloading the latest 0.3.1 from https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher
You can create a bootable installer USB with the Terminal.
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Big\ Sur.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
Goodness knows what finally made it work. Works out it was BS 1.5.2 that I installed. I blessed my OCLP EF partition but RefindPlus still came up after rebooting.
How I got it to work (in case any poor old RefindPlus soul out there is out of ideas themselves):
I chose the RefindPlus
OC_ALT option (VMM activated) and chose the USB thumb stick installer. I had 4 restarts all up: the first two were hard stalls (halfway across the Apple logo) and I had to manually restart. The third reboot (the first time the installer actually got that far) I used the normal RefindPlus OC option and got the updated Apple logo screen with the contemporary "new" grey background with the whitish Apple logo (if you like that thing?!), and it did some more of the install process before restarting a 4th time and I finally got the setup screen. What a rigmarole. Question: If I wanted to update to 11.6.1, (it is showing in Software Update) am I safe to just let it run, or should I count my losses/blessings and just stay on 11.5.2? If I go for it, should I use the VMM
OC_ALT or just the normal OC option?
@TigerA Are you saying I need to reinstall Big Sur on my laptop using the most up to date OCLP? If so, a fresh install?
Yes. You can try installing OCLP Big Sur on top of your existing macOS. Of course to back up your data to Time Machine 1st before installation.
please publish your Mac spec in the signature field, just like others, to save times and energy, and receive more precise helps from others.
you can also download the latest OCLP and rebuild your EFI, then reboot your Mac to see if it makes any difference. I expect you will get an OTA for updating your Big Sur to the latest version…

Hi. Can I ask a question?
I have been running BS 11.6 on my CMP 5,1 2012 from a separate HDD thru OCLP 0.3.0 and would like to install it on the SSD that I normally use for booting. Can I just re-install a new version of OCLP and BS on this SSD and then reformat the HDD? Or do I need to do anything else? I have read the OCLP Guide but couldn't find any info on this.
Thanks.
Willem

Remove the HDD from CMP completely; to prevent any confusion/mix up.
Start like new with release version of OCLP.
- build OCLP, install OCLP onto Big Sur USB stick installer
- boot OCLP EFI, install BS onto your SSD (I prefer clean install i.e. erase SSD, format APFS)
- fresh install of apps, copy your files from backup (or restore from Time Machine backup)
- build OCLP again, install OCLP onto SSD, if you want to boot without the USB stick connected all the time
