I will look for and correct the typo.
 
Hello Rehabman,
Thanks for this awesome guide.

Am trying to implement this kind of code in my SSDT-HACK:
Code: 
Method(GPRW, 2)
{
    If (0x6d == Arg0) { Return(Package() { 0x6d, 0, }) }
    External(\XPRW, MethodObj)
    Return(XPRW(Arg0, Arg1))
}

but in my case, I have name instead method:
Code: 
Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
{
   0x0D,
   0x03
})

Can you please post a example?

Thanks in advance.

Look at the mixed listing to determine the byte pattern of that code.
 
Yes, Am using this:
Code: 
       4:                      Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
       5:                      {
       6:                      0x0D,
       7:                      0x03
       8:                      })

00000024:  08 5F 50 52 57 .........    "._PRW"
00000029:  12 06 02 0A 0D 0A 03 ...    "......."

      10:                      Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
      11:                      {
      12:                      0x0D,
      13:                      Zero
      14:                      })

00000030:  08 5F 50 52 57 .........    "._PRW"
00000035:  12 05 02 0A 0D 00 ......    "......"

to hot patch DSDT with Clover for now, but would like to know if i can implement your method to redirect _PRW calls into SSDT.

No need for SSDT. Simple Find/Replace:

Find: 08 5F 50 52 57 12 06 02 0A 0D 0A 03
Replace: 08 5F 50 52 57 12 06 02 0A 0D 0A 00

The Store ops to _PR.CPUx._PPC are invalid due to _PPC being a method.
 
Hello Rehabman.

I want to use this method to patch battery with my hp pavilion g4 laptop,and i use diffmerge find some diffs but i don't know how to create a SSDT-Battery.dsl to make it well.

You need to use 'External' to access the fields present in DSDT from the SSDT.
