My 2019 15inch MacBook Pro with Vega 20 always crash and reboot when it going to sleep. And each time It automatically change "switch the graphics card" option in powel setting to uncheck.

I was having this problem on a 15" MBP 2019 with the Pro Vega 20, then again on the 16" 2019 MBP with the 8GB Radeon I swapped it for.
Basically, your Catalina install comes with a bunch of extensions for running RAID hard drives (most users won't ever do this). Something about at least one of them is broken. I haven't worked out exactly which ones cause the problem, but they can all be safely removed if you don't use RAID HDDs.
They can be found in MacintoshHD>Library>Extensions. Make sure you're looking the right right Library folder, you want the one on in Macintosh HD, NOT the one under your username. I made a backup of them just in case, then cleared out the following .kext files:
ACS6x
ArcMSR
ATTOCelerityFC8
ATTOExpressSASHBA2
ATTOExpressSASRAID2
CalDigitHDProDrv
HighPointIOP
HighPointRR
PromiseSTEX
SoftRAID
Since I was on a very fresh install, I expect these are all the ones which come with Catalina as standard. My machine has since been waking from sleep successfully and quickly every time, even with multiple displays and USB-C devices plugged in.
Are you saying you have "Drive Docs/OWC"? They are telling me that I'm the only one who has contacted them with this issue.
No, I have (what are the most common Harddisc-brands?). These.
So you get sleep crashes? If so external mechanical hard drive sleeping may be the bug in Catalina Apple haven’t fixed?
I'm having same problem, my mac crashed like more 15 times today after it goes to sleep mode. Apple please fix this issue ASAP.
My new MacBook 2019 has the same problem, the new update 10.15.2 does not solve the problem, hope Apple will come up with something better
I'm pretty sure this is ploy to make us buy new MacBooks. This is the kind of thing that makes me want a PC; well this and the price of Macs.
Well, the mac book slept for over 12 hours and no crash on opening, which is interesting.
Will continue to monitor and report if something changes.
I am having this issue too.
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
No eGPU though.
Problem with sleep/wake started when I upgraded to Catalina.
The Combo update has not fixed problem for me. I have no external drives plugged into my MacBook Pro.
Hi,
Same happens to me, new MBPro 2019 on Catalina 10.15.2.
There's no fix at this point ?
DO NOT RESET NVRAM! THAT'S WHERE YOUR KERNEL PANIC LOGS ARE!
Installing the 10.15.2 Combo Update has not resolved my problem. The sleep/wake problem occurs on my MacBook when there are no external devices connected to my Mac.
A disk erase/fresh install/no migration did not fix the problem for me.
Facing similar issue with Catalina operating system version 10.15.2 on a 2017 macbook pro. Macbook crashes after extended sleep and reboots every time.
macOS catalina 10.15.3 is out.
Is there anybody can solve this problem ?
Catalina constantly crashing when Sleep
