Secure Boot: With this release secure boot enrollment should no longer be required. You must have 3rd party secure boot enabled. If you have issues booting you should follow the previous secure boot instructions to enroll the secure boot certificate.

OpenCore Mod: With release 2.0.0 I changed the OpenCore system to the Mod fork. This was done to correct an incompatibility with the Surface Pro 7 booting with OpenCore, running Windows, where the system will not properly transition from sleep to hibernate resulting in a crash upon wake from hibernate.

Release Information:

  • OpenCore (r1.0.0)
  • Supports 10.15-14.X
  • SIP ON

Supplemental Instructions:

  1. You must add your SMBIOS information to the config.plist if you would like to sign into any iService
  2. Surface Pro 7 (i3 variant) is not compatible as it is not compatible with macOS. UHD G1 was never on any official Mac.
  3. If you experience flickering on the i5 using the i5 config, you should try with the i7 config as some reports indicate that it may work better even with the i5 chipset.

What is not yet working:

  • Accelerometer (unsupported device)
  • Cameras (unsupported device)
  • Hardware based DRM (macOS Issue; unlikely to ever work)
  • Some i7 users have reported that the fan may not be working in macOS. Working to determine cause. (i3/i5 users do not have a fan and so are not impacted)
  • Sleep/Hibernation: AOC breaks sleep with macOS and there is currently no known workaround that works on the Surface Pro 7.
  • iMessage/FaceTime DOES NOT WORK in Sonoma at this time. This is an issue with the current Intel Wifi kext and requires a fix. Once the developer releases an update fixing iMessage/FaceTime, I will update this release. Some users report activating iMessage/FaceTime in Ventura and then upgrading to Sonoma may work.

Fixed Issues & Feature Additions/Changes:

  • Transitioned to the OpenCore Mod fork. This was done to correct an incompatibility with the Surface Pro 7 booting with OpenCore, running Windows, where the system will not properly transition from sleep to hibernate resulting in a crash upon wake from hibernate.
