Guide To Install Mavericks with Clover Bootloader

[pwd]

Here are some screenshots that as you can see the fan does not start until the Ambient temperature is around 50 degrees and after minutes of cooling the CPU goes down around 38-42 but the ambient temperature stays like before.

RehabMan, I noticed that my laptop gets a little warmer in regular use, and this was not happening with earlier version of probook patches (DSDT). This problem existed before, when the leftpalm rest gets hotter and hotter but after you did some modifications inside the patching of DSDT the problem disappeared.

At the moment I'm using F43 bios and the readings only fan patch.

I have a ProBook 4540s.

After sleep and reverting to web browsing and some folder copying the laptop jumped very fast at 50 degrees and remained there. Before it stayed at 42 degrees and the laftpalm rest was like the right one. (cold).

AND here are the images

That is not surprising. Ambient temperature is taken from a diode somewhere within the case. It is likely to remain relatively constant, except for extreme differences in room temperature and/or laptop workload.

As far as fan behavior wrt temperature, your observations seem about right for stock BIOS behavior on the 4540s. That is, it correlates to what I've seen with my own laptop.

Thanks for you guide RehabMan. There is an other problem I often face on my ProBook. The HWMonitor shows the correct battery percentage but the OS X seems to get stuck at a fixed level. When I un-check show percentage and then check it updates the percentage. I have tried re-installing the ACPIBatteryManager.kext but no success! any suggestion?

I have not seen that. Given that HwMonitor reads the same information (in the ioreg) that the system battery status reads and it is being updated, then it is not a problem with DSDT or battery kext, but rather a problem with the OS X battery status code.

Do a fresh install and see if it still happens...

The strange point is that it shows the correct percentage on login screen but not in status bar...

The battery kext/DSDT does not display this information. It just provides it to the system in the ioreg.

It's a Mac related problem: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964?viewlocale=en_US

But how to reset SMC on a hackintosh!?

Are you certain it is getting stuck? I find the HwMonitor display is simply wrong (by up to 1%). It is rounding up where OS X does not. Therefore HwMonitor is wrong 50% of the time.

Yes, It shows 90% on status bar after on hour of video playback, as soon as I sign out and login it shows 40%. Searching the internet, I found that it sometimes happens in real macs too and needs the SMC to be reset but we don't have it on Hackintosh. I tried clearing nvram using "nvram -c" command but didn't work. Then I removed "EmuVariableUefi-64.efi" from EFI/ClOVER/driver64UEFI and guess what? Now it's working in the right way!!
