Attached you will find what I believe to be the final release of the battery manager kexts. In theory, this is applicable to ML and Lion, although I've only tested it on ML. I don't currently have a Lion partition to test with. It is built with Xcode Version 4.4.1 (4F1003), host OS is ML 10.8.1.
This is the same as zprood's version from this link: http://www.insanlynac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=272459 (note you will have to fix that URL because of disagreements between tonymac & Insanely Mac), except for a fix for the case where the computer is started without any batteries installed. With my fix here it will correctly show running "Source: Power Adapter" and will of course use the "Power Adapter" power profile in energy preferences. It was simple two line change and is documented in the source code, attached. As per APLS open source license, I include the source and documented my changes along with date of modification.
I have built a 'Release' version and bumped the Version to "1.1" to make it easier to identify. Both AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext and AppleSmartBatteryManager.kext are included and both contain the fix. Please note that generally AppleSmartBatteryManager.kext is the kext that loads, and I believe that AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext is not needed (I usually remove it after the HP ProBook Installer installs it). I include it here just because zprood included it in his version.
Tegezee has tried it and he was one of the folks that had trouble with my version a couple of weeks ago... this time it is good. Several others have downloaded my test version above and I've heard nothing. I'm assuming no news is good news.
Please test and report any issues here.
Tegezee -- Assuming it is good, this is ready to be integrated in the Installer.
Why are you replacing AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext? I'm using the one in the installer & your AppleSmartBatteryManager.kext and it's working fine. Plus the file sizes are dramatically different, what did you do different with AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext?
