Improvements & Suggestions:
Graphics Performance (HD4000):
- HD4000 can be a bit sluggish, but try tweaking the framebuffer settings in
config.plistwith WhateverGreen.kext to see if it improves. - Using the boot argument
igfxvesamight help with stability, though it can limit resolution.

HDMI Audio:
- Since HDMI is working but without sound, check if adding a patched AppleALC layout ID for the Realtek ALC270 can help. You might need to experiment with IDs, but try injecting layout ID
3or28first, as these are commonly compatible with ALC270.

Ethernet and USB WiFi Stability:
- Your TP-Link Archer T2U Nano should work well with Chris1111’s drivers, but Ethernet can sometimes take priority, causing disconnects.
- Try disabling the Ethernet in
System Preferences > Networkwhen using USB WiFi for a more stable connection.
iMessage and FaceTime:
- For iMessage, check that you’ve added unique serial numbers, MLB, and ROM values in
PlatformInfoin OpenCore’sconfig.plist(GenSMBIOS can generate these). - Sign out of iCloud on macOS, restart, and sign back in. Apple’s verification servers can be picky, so a unique set of serials may help.
- For iMessage, check that you’ve added unique serial numbers, MLB, and ROM values in
HD4000 Brightness Control:
- If brightness controls are not fully responsive, try using the BrightnessKeys.kext or
SSDT-PNLF.amlin the ACPI folder to improve control. This may also need adjustments inconfig.plistforWhateverGreenbrightness settings.
- If brightness controls are not fully responsive, try using the BrightnessKeys.kext or
PS/2 Keyboard and Trackpad:
- If you’re using a custom PS/2 kext, double-check that it’s the latest VoodooPS2Controller kext version. This can improve response and customisation for gestures if enabled in the kext’s preferences.
Bluetooth Fix:
- Sometimes, macOS has trouble recognising the Atheros Bluetooth. Disabling the WiFi portion can interfere, so if you don’t need WiFi, try enabling just Bluetooth from
System Preferences > Bluetoothto maintain functionality.

Sounds like you’ve covered a lot of ground already! Enjoy running Sequoia on your K46CM, and great job working through all those hurdles!
