ERROR Report: Today I installed RehabMan’s CodecCommander (see here: https://github.com/RehabMan/EAPD-Codec-Commander) as this guide tells you to do in order to get rid of the audio loss after wake from sleep. It worked perfectly easy as I have the ALC283 codec. But then something really, really awful happened. I of course tested the wake from sleep behavior. I found out that wake from sleep works fine when the laptop stays open (unclosed lid). Then I sent it into sleep manually and closed the lid and when I opened the lid it still came back on. And then I just closed the lid to send it to sleep. What a mistake. As I opened it back up after a while, it did not come back from the black screen, though something was going on (cpu indicator light flashing). I waited a good while, but then I decided to force-quit and reboot. And then: SHOCK! The display showed me a flickering frame just under the normal desktop image which seemed to be something like a ghost of the desktop that was there when I closing the lid. This flickering ghost image was like a second layer under the normal screen and shone through everything on screen, and it created a high-frequency flickering that was very irritating to the eye. Kind of like an after-image when you look into a light and then close your eyes. I was so shocked that I immediately started trying anything that came to my mind, but nothing helped. I even put the Windows HDD back in and booted in Windows only to find the flickering ghost frame was STILL THERE!!! I took the CMOS battery out - STILL THE SAME!! I thought I destroyed the display. But after like 20 minutes the effect started to wear off and now it is gone completely. Wish I had made some photos or video of this downright crazy effect. Anybody seen anything like this before? What could have caused this effect?
I can only say BEWARE the lid closing ...
Also I have enabled the USB Wake From Sleep option in BIOS A14. It has no obvious effect, the external USB ports still get unmounted by sleep and I get the error warning on wake, as the USB sticks and external HDs get remounted automatically.
I have the feeling that something is really badly out of balance in my PowerManagement, even though I followed this guide thoroughly and applied all the PM patches...
I am attaching EFI/CLOVER and Ioreg...
ACPI/origin files are from 2016-12-22. Today is 2017-01-03. Hence, the files in ACPI/origin are too old to make a valid comparison.
Also, ACPI/patched files are not the correct ones anyway... Based on ACPI/origin, you should have in ACPI/patched:
DSDT.aml
SSDT.aml (ssdtPRgen.sh)
SSDT-0.aml
SSDT-1.aml
SSDT-2.aml
SSDT-3.aml
SSDT-7.aml
SSDT-8.aml
SSDT-9.aml
See guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-patching-laptop-dsdt-ssdts.152573/
Also, USB is not implemented correctly. See guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-creating-a-custom-ssdt-for-usbinjectall-kext.211311/
