How to Fix Rt.GV wake-failure preventing me from running Ventura Installer on macOS
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AWDL, Continuity and Location Services problems usually come from chipset support, kext pairing, privacy settings or network-location corruption. On Hackintosh systems, Location Services and Continuity depend on working Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AWDL and correct AirportItlwm or itlwm/HeliPort behaviour.
Quick Checks
- Backup current state: Save a copy of your working EFI and run a full system backup before changing settings.
- Identify hardware components: Note down your exact CPU, GPU, Wi-Fi card, and motherboard/laptop model.
- Ensure utility alignment: Keep OpenCore, OCLP, and ProperTree updated.
Fix Steps
- Create a rollback point: Make a Time Machine backup and keep a copy of your last working EFI folder before editing OpenCore, kexts or root patches.
- Confirm the exact chipset: Identify the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Ethernet controller from System Information, Hackintool or Linux/Windows device manager.
- Use the correct network stack: Match AirportItlwm, itlwm, HeliPort, IntelBluetoothFirmware and BlueToolFixup to the exact macOS version.
- Reset macOS network state: Remove the current Wi-Fi service, reboot, add it again, then reconnect to a simple WPA2 network before testing advanced features.
- Check privacy permissions: Open System Settings and confirm Location Services, Maps, Weather and system services are enabled.
- Test Apple features separately: Verify normal internet first, then Bluetooth, then AirDrop/Continuity. Do not debug all three at the same time.
Do Not Continue If
- Do not continue if: you do not have a working EFI backup, a Time Machine backup, or another bootable macOS installer.
- Stop and capture evidence: if the machine stops booting, take a photo of the last verbose line before changing more settings.
Verify It Worked
- Maps can locate you without falling back to a stale location.
- Wi-Fi reconnects after reboot and sleep.
- Bluetooth remains available after a cold boot.
- Console no longer shows repeated wireless or location daemon errors.
Rollback
- Restore the previous EFI if Wi-Fi disappears completely.
- Switch from AirportItlwm to itlwm + HeliPort, or the reverse, if the issue is specific to one driver path.
- Use Ethernet or USB tethering while testing so you do not lose access to downloads.
Next Action
- Test now: reboot twice, reproduce the original problem, and confirm whether the same symptom returns.
- If it still fails: record the Mac model, macOS build, OpenCore or OCLP version, GPU, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chipset, and the last visible error.
- Read next: use the related searches below for the nearest OpenCore or OCLP fix before making another change.

Original Question: "Rt.GV wake-failure preventing me from running Ventura Installer"
I'm working on finally updating my OS from Catalina which has been rock solid and stable for years now. My plan is to install Ventura onto another drive so I can boot both Catalina and Ventura for awhile. In other words, the Ventura installation will be completely fresh. I built a new EFI from scratch following the Vanilla guide including redoing SSDTs, updated kexts, and redid the USB map just in case. (The USB map is the only place I deviated from the guide and mapped them while booted into Windows using USBToolBox). When I try to run the installer I get thrown a handful of errors and then I get a kernel panic. Scrolling through video of the installation attempt and later through the log, I think I've pinpointed the following errors to be the issue:
25:848 00:018 AAPL: #[EB.LD.LF|IN] 0 1 <"<null string>"> <"1"> 25:874 00:026 AAPL: #[EB.B.SBS|SZ] 723512 25:899 00:024 AAPL: #[EB|B:SHA] <c33af8ea725fa4ca7d5533f2d47e89874c6255ff> 25:931 00:031 AAPL: #[EB.WL.PWLFNV|!] Err(0xE) <- RT.GV wake-failure 7C436110-AB2A-4BBB-A880-FE41995C9F82 25:949 00:018 AAPL: #[EB.WL.DT|!] Err(0xE) <- EB.WL.PWLFNV 25:966 00:017 AAPL: #[EB.WL.PWLFRTC|NONE] 25:984 00:017 AAPL: #[EB.WL.DT|!] Err(0xE) <- EB.WL.PWLFRTC 26:003 00:019 AAPL: #[EB.LD.LKC|D] <"System\Library\KernelCollections\BootKernelExtensions.kc.development"> 26:023 00:019 AAPL: #[EB.LD.LF|IN] 0 1 <"System\\Library\\KernelCollections\\BootKernelExtensions.kc.development"> <"0"> 26:041 00:018 AAPL: #[EB.LD.OFS|OPEN!] Err(0xE) <"System\\Library\\KernelCollections\\BootKernelExtensions.kc.development"> 26:059 00:018 AAPL: #[EB.LD.LKC|R.2] <"System\Library\KernelCollections\BootKernelExtensions.kc"> 26:079 00:019 AAPL: #[EB.LD.LF|IN] 0 1 <"System\\Library\\KernelCollections\\BootKernelExtensions.kc"> <"0"> Unfortunately I haven't had much luck chasing down what the problems could be.
I'm running an iMacPro1,1 bios with the following specs:
- CPU - i9 7940x (Skylake X)
- Motherboard - Asus Prime X299 Deluxe II
- GPU - Radeon VII (Vega 20)
- Bluetooth - Fenvi FV-T919
Any guidance would be much appreciated!
