I've been using OpenCore Legacy Patcher on my 2012 cMBP for a while, first on Monterey, then on Ventura. So far, it's been stable and a great way to keep my machine going. The config for the machine is 16GB of OWC RAM, a 500GB WD Blue, and a brand new replacement HD cable from Apple since those fail quite frequently.
I've found that there is a 80% chance that if I close the lid and sleep the machine for any decent amount of time (15+ minutes), I will open it to find a black, yet backlit screen. It will sit for about 10 seconds on such a screen, then reboot itself successfully.
Has anyone else come across this kind of behavior in OpenCore and found a fix? Perhaps I should use the console and see what is not allowing it to wake up properly.
