You're using an invalid FakeID with config.plist/Devices/FakeID/IntelGFX=0x12345678.
As you have discovered, using an invalid FakeID is an excellent way to disable the graphics drivers.

You cannot change GFX0->IGPU only in DSDT. As per ACPI patching guide, you must apply renames equally across all DSDT+SSDTs that reference the symbol.

Thanks for your reply.
That EFI folder which is able to boot has applied renames across all SSDTs but DSDT. When I change GFX0 to IGPU in DSDT. I got a screen like this.

You must change it in all SSDTs that reference GFX0.

This time, I changed GFX0->IGPU across all DSDT + SSDTs.
It still cannot boot ......
Do SSDT-5x, SSDT-6x, SSDT-7x, SSDT-8x, SSDT-9x, SSDT-10x, and SSDT-11x need to be renamed?

Let me try again.
I'm not sure if I completely get your meaning of

The EFI folder led to a boot failure.
The boot screen in the picture was exactly what I got.

Your ACPI configuration is wrong. As per guide, you must set DropOem=true with patched SSDTs in ACPI/patched. You have it set false.

When I set DropOem = true, finally, I could boot with GFX0 changed to IGPU.
However, two problems appeared.
I got a black screen after the boot screen in the picture when I boot without FakeID.
The battery percentage shows 0% when I am able to boot with FakeID.
