Asus r510vx Skylake - battery status

[Deviad]

Hello,
I managed to get my El Capitan up and running on this laptop, I just have to figure out to get the battery status up and running.
Right now I just get a low battery status after installing the Kext by RehabMan.



I am reading these resources right now:
https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch/blob/master/battery/battery_ASUS-N55SL.txt
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-how-to-patch-dsdt-for-working-battery-status.116102/

Therefore I downloaded:
RehabMan-MaciASL-2016-0423.zip


Previously I did what is described here for ACPI
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-native-power-management-for-laptops.175801/

and placed the aml file in the proper directory.

Now since I do not have experience with Assembly, I really do not understand what I should do.


I noticed that the compiler when checking the .dsl file syntax without modifying anything gives me some syntax error if I try to compile the file. Is it normal?

EDIT:
Maybe I should open another thread, but I have pretty much the same issue with backlight. I would like to brighten or dimmer the display brightness with F1 and F2, but right now nothing happens after installing the proper Kext cos I don't get the whole process.

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards,
Davide

OK, I applied the patch (I watched a video on Youtube that explains the process), I have 0 rejected, but I keep having the errors in the screenshot, which I had before patching as well.

Close to what this guy has (used Google Translator)

The file was removed by Chinese Great Wall.
I could compare the two files (the patched version and my "broken" one) with sublimetext and find the differences to
see what I had to modify.
You can register on their forum only with invitation.

So now I am all in your hands.

Hope someone will help me.

Thank you.

Hello Rehab,
based on your tutorial I obtained my dal files, hereby I will attach the archive with my dsdt and ssdt files.
Still getting the same errors when using maciasl against DSDT.dsl.

Thank you.

Attach all native DSDT+SSDT files.

Solved, I just used some programming skills without worrying too much.
In programming if you have a return, the rest of the code is unreachable, so I just deleted the rest within that scope and so forth. Problem solved. )

Battery status working, now I need to see why the patch for backlight did not work.

I installed your Kext (OSX Intel Backlight) for backlight, however now I am clueless with this:
<key>AddPNLF_1000000</key>
<true/>

as I am using Clover's "new way" as per your config.plist for HD530.

Note that the return you refer to is conditional, therefore the code following is not unreachable.
Your mistake was incorrect disassembly procedures.

Hi RehabMan,
I have used Clover's F4 procedure.
I did not know that about return, therefore here are the files you asked in your previous reply.

Thank you.

I tried with Linux and when I compile them with Maciasl, I get even more errors.
