Your ioreg still shows USBInjectAll.kext 0.6.2. Current version is 0.6.4.
0.6.2 does not support iMac19,1. iMac19,1 was added in 0.6.3 (read the README/changelog).

What a terrible oversight on my part. Thanks for your patience. Everything is sorted now! Thanks as always!

Can I understand this: I can use a values of different model than smbios, like macbookpro 12.1 or imac14.1?

You can use whichever power values you'd like to use.

Another question is, are these values in SSDT-UIAC.aml and SSDT-USBX.aml need to be the same?

No idea what you're asking.
You should clarify your question.

SSDT-UIAC.aml and SSDT-USBX.aml are used for two completely different purposes, although you can merge their content into a single file.

                        {
                             0x0F, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00                       
                        }
                    },

                    "SS06",
                    Package (0x04)
                    {
                        "UsbConnector",
                        0x03,
                        "port",
                        Buffer (0x04)
                        {
                             0x12, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00                       
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        })
    }
}

SSDT-USBX.aml is:

Code:

DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 2, "hack", "USBX", 0x00000000)
{
    Device (_SB.USBX)
    {
        Name (_ADR, Zero)  // _ADR: Address
        Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)  // _DSM: Device-Specific Method
        {
            If (LNot (Arg2))
            {
                Return (Buffer (One)
                {
                     0x03                                         
                })
            }

            Return (Package (0x08)
            {
                "kUSBSleepPortCurrentLimit",
                0x0834,
                "kUSBSleepPowerSupply",
                0x0A28,
                "kUSBWakePortCurrentLimit",
                0x0834,
                "kUSBWakePowerSupply",
                0x0C80
            })
        }
    }
}

No need to use both USBX and "AppleBusPowerControllerUSB".

You should use USBX if you're using an SMBIOS without representation in IOUSBHostFamily.kext.
As per post #1 (you really need to read it carefully).

Hi @RehabMan Thanks for your help and your support to this community!
Could you please check my files to see if I missed something? I used ssdt for EC because hotpatch H_EC to EC didn't do the trick for me(Yes I have H_EC). Everything else seems to be fine...

"Problem Reporting" files are wrong (too large).
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Use the tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

Sorry @RehabMan , here the files with the tool provided in the FAQ.

Yes... this looks fine. You computer has no EC (EC0, H_EC, or otherwise), which is why you needed SSDT-EC.aml.
