Macbook Sleep Wake failure in EFI (Failure code:: 0xffffffff 0x0000001f)

I have two macbook's, one model end 2018 and one model begin 2019.

They both suffer from the same problem with a fresh installation (also reset NVRAM, PRAM, SMC).


The crash reason: Sleep Wake failure in EFI

Failure code:: 0xffffffff 0x0000001f


I already contacted Senior Support for this and have a running case for both.


If you run into the same problem, please let me know here.

To trace down the problem more info of different devices can be useful.


If I get feedback that solves it, I'll post it here.

I had the same problem, and finally found a very odd solution. In my case, after a lot of frustrating work, I traced the problem to an old USB hub I was using on my new mac. Once I disconnected the old USB hub, the problem immediately stopped. In my case, it was surprising and very lucky to discover that the problem seemed to be associated with an attached electronic component. Hope this helps you.

Just got off with Apple support. This fixed my problem.


Open up the Terminal and copy and paste this into the command line:


kextstat | grep -v com.apple


you will get a list of third party kernel extensions.


In my case it was a recently installed instillation driver for an external hard drive that was the problem. I used “CleanMyMac” to uninstall the instillation program and rebooted and am all set.


If that doesn’t work for you, go to the Apple tech support chat link on the support page and give them the failure code. They were really good at walking me through diagnosing it. Escalated the issue quickly and were about to have an engineer call me before the driver fix worked.

Personally I advice people to not use CleanMyMac since it brings a lot of issues if you use it wrong.

I don't see your writing as app promotion tho, for some people it might actually work without having much tech knowledge.


But in reaction to your point about the kernel module, in my case I was using docker, I tested my situation by unloading the kernel module at first and see what happens, after 2 weeks without crashing I removed docker completely.

They are working on a solution but I don't have the time to wait for it at the moment.


kextstat | grep -v com.apple
kextunload com.mariusvw.SomeModule


Then move the module aside or uninstall the application to ensure it does not get loaded again by rebooting.

Im also having this problem, I just recently bought a refurbed MacBook Pro early 2015 I believe (works like a dream surprisingly!) but I upgraded to Catalina a few days ago and this is the first time it’s happened. I thought at first it was just because my mac was a refurb, but i’m glad i’m not the only one! I’d seen on another thread that this happens to a lot of people when their Mac dies instead of hibernating I believe? Not sure if that’s true, but mine was at really low power, it’s completely fine after plugging it in to a power source! I guess I have to make sure to keep it charged :/

Me too. Brand new Macbook Pro 16inch 2019:


Happens pretty much any time the computer goes to sleep for longer than 5 minutes or so. Have to hard restart the computer just to get it usable.

I've found out that my EFI is not being updated and is stuck at version 149.0.0.0.0 (MBP112 149 201809171514 Release B&I). Reinstalling Catalina did not help. I also tried `efiupdater` (and also bless) with EFI payload from FirmwareUpdater.pkg from Catalina Installer App, which runs with no errors, but after reboot/shutdown the EFI version is still 149. Seems the actual upgrade during reboot is failing, but I have no idea where to find the logs. Is there any other way to force the upgrade?
