Like I said, I got it "working" with basically the minStolenSize patch for mojave - which I don't quite know what to call because it was my impression this wouldn't work in Mojave. There is no custom/developer/etc BIOS for this laptop that I know of, and I'm wary of trying to reverse my BIOS...

Updated.

Nevermind. Thanks to this post on ******, I figured it out. I ended up basically using a modern minstolensize patch instead of patching the FB directly, because I just could not get the latter to work.

Hello RehabMan, I've been trying to get the IGPU on my Lenovo Yoga 9000 13ISK to work after updating to Mojave 10.14.3 by following this guide along with headkaze's guide on framebuffer patching using whatevergreen and lilu, here. This is a clean install of mojave on a new SSD. I still have a...

Forgive me, I'm new and I didn't realize that this post was from almost two years ago

If all you want to do is install macOS on your laptop right now, you don't really need to know how to write drivers to do that. The tutorials on this site should help you out, specifically those written by RehabMan, as he has whole repositories of DSDT patches that you might need to get...

Given your specs, I'm assuming this is a desktop computer. However, it will be useful to you later on if you add your computer's specs to your profile, instead of having to post it in every comment. On to the answer: Installing macOS on a non-apple computer isn't something you should just...

I've tested the patch from the repo, and am happy to see it works perfectly! Now to move on to trying to find decent documentation/tutorials on how to write kexts and drivers for macOS, so I can try to finally have a working trackpad... But that's a project for a different thread :p (Though if...

Sounds good. I'm sorry that the offsets are off. The patch works regardless, but I understand it's important to make sure everything is correct in order to avoid potential bugs later. Thanks again for a great tutorial, I would never have been able to do this without your help!

Your numbers are correct, I think I accidentally counted two too few bytes when adding them all together. I've uploaded the updated patch.

Agh, I can't believe I made such a simple mistake. I've edited my profile to list the laptop specifications. After patching the fields I missed that you caught, and correcting the offset error I made, the battery status is now working perfectly. I've attaced a copy of the working patch and my...

So I'm almost to the point of having a working battery status. I can look in IORegistryExplorer and I know the reason it doesn't report a percentage is because MaxCapacity and DesignCapacity are returning as 0x0. CurrentCapacity is returning (I don't know for sure that the value is accurate...
