[SOLVED] sleep=shutdown

[itwas]

I'm having a slightly different issue. When it goes to sleep by itself, the monitor never actually goes black... it goes dark, but there is still signal and the arrow cursor is plainly visible. Selecting "Sleep" from the file menu just causes the machine to freeze for a few seconds, then the cursor comes back. Do you think deleting the power management files would address my issue?

there is a setting called halfdim, read the pmset manual, maybe it can give you some ideas

halfdim - display sleep will use an intermediate half-brightness state between full brightness and fully off
     (value = 0/1)

Thank you, I will!

Your .kext and .efi are outdated. Some of them you don't need, some of them were cannibalized by others kexts and efis. Your config.plist is a template that I saw on dozens of sites... I can bet on that your hardware acceleration doesn't work and you don't have custom SSDT for USBInjectAll.kext. So It's a miracle that you have just sleep/wake problems

You should figure out all these things first.

Fortunately, it's a miracle. I had hardware acceleration and custom ssdt.
I'm just wondering how to configure the config.plist. I didn't know which should I toggle, so is there any tutorial?
Please tell me about the outdated efi and kexts then and which should I delete or update then.

Okey, Shiki and IntelGraphicsFixupis now part of WhateverGreen, use it instead. You don't need XHCI-200-series-injector.kext with your MB. You should also remove USB patch from config.plist, if you injected your USB properly.


ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi, AppleKeyAggregator-64.efi, AppleUITheme-64.efi, AptioMemoryFix-64.efi are covered by this and this.

Here are my .efis that work with AFPS, and FileVault 2. All of them was updated recently.

delete all the com.apple.PowerManagement.* files
reboot

Thanks! Sleep works again now.

Thank you for your information. I've just updated the .kexts and .efi.

delete all the com.apple.PowerManagement.* files

macOS re-generated the com.apple.PowerManagement* files

Thanks itwas!

I'm not sure if it worked yet, but I'm giving your solution a try. I had the same symptoms after Mojave on my Main.

Edit: One day later, this solution is working great for me! Thanks again.

Edit 2: Spoke too soon. Since Mojave, sporadically when I wake my Hack I find it booting at the BIOS screen. The search continues...

Edit 3: I haven't completely isolated this issue, but for me the problem appears to have gone away when I started using USBInjectAll.kext. Previously I was using the default BIOS tables.

I deleted all the PowerManagement files and sleep is working fine. Thanks to itwas!

Thank you @itwas, your solution solved my sleep=reboot issue.
