Resolving Sleep Crashes on MBP 2015

Crashes when closing the lid on a 2015 MacBook Pro running Sequoia are usually caused by a conflict between the legacy graphics drivers and the new power management stack.

Recommended Fixes:

  1. Disable Power Nap: Go to System Settings > Energy Saver and turn off Enable Power Nap. This prevents the Mac from waking up in the background and crashing.
  2. Hibernation Settings: Open Terminal and run sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0. This forces the Mac to use standard sleep instead of writing the RAM to disk.
  3. OCLP FeatureUnlock: In OCLP settings, ensure 'FeatureUnlock' is disabled if you continue to experience wake-from-sleep crashes.
  4. SMC Reset: Perform an SMC reset to recalibrate the lid sensor and power controller.

Original Question: "2015 MacBook Pro on Sequoia. Crashes when lid closes or goes to sleep"

I used OCLP to install Sequoia on my 2015 MacBook Pro. i5 8gb RAM. Runs pretty well, but it crashes anytime it goes to sleep or I close the lid. Anyone else run into this? Any help is appreciated!
