Hello, i trying make my Asus work MacBook like. I open this like RehabMan suggested.
Acctualy work BT,sound, keyboard, LAN, Intel HD620, partialy touchpad (single-click, no gestures).
I fight with sleep, battery drain and multitouch on touchpad.. I don't know how many times i try many others guides and tips.. Not working.
I think about battery drain - probably GPU (Nvidia) is deactived on system, but working and drain battery..
Touchpad work only in polling mode.
About sleep i don't know what make issues.
Could you please help me? Maybe someone will look at these files and correct them? Thank you in advance!

EDIT//
Sleep 90% work, not from touchpad/usb mouse, only from keyboard but wake up and work.

Work on one thing at a time... for example, excessive power use is likely due to the fact you failed to disable the Nvidia device.
See guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-disabling-discrete-graphics-in-dual-gpu-laptops.262174/
 
Use the files that I have now loaded in the system and are in the package, or create DSDT again?
Edit//
I must edit DSDT, SSDT4 and SSDT6. On SSDT6 i have "true" _OFF method. After changes i finally got

From the start.
In SSDT4, using patch from your depository, Disable from _INI, in this patch, changing
Code:
into method label _INI parent_label \_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP insert
begin
//added to turn nvidia/radeon off\n
//External(\_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._OFF, MethodObj)\n
_OFF()\n
end;
to
Code:
into method label _INI parent_label \_SB.PCI0.RP01.PEGP insert
begin
//added to turn nvidia/radeon off\n
//External(\_SB.PCI0.RP01.PEGP._OFF, MethodObj)\n
_OFF()\n
end;
This is correct ?

Ok, now in settings Graphic/Monitor i have ONLY Intel 620, i think its ok now. Gonna test battery drain.
I use Yt tutorial and changing PEG0 to RP01.
Tutorial title on Yt -"Disable Discrete Nvidia or AMD Graphics Card Hackintosh" by user Ramana Bandari
another EDIT//
Backlight working, battery working much better.
Sleep working 3/4 times. Not wake up from USB , only from keyboard. Sometimes don't wake up.

If all works ok, power usage 1,6-1,9 W, and then is ok, but sometimes going 4W+ i don't know why..
Sometimes sound after reboot don't work.

Your kextcache output proves kexts are not installed correctly.
All kexts you need must be installed to the system volume.
Read post #2 of the Clover guide for details:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

It is not valid to use the GPRW->XPRW patch without the corresponding SSDT.

Due to these major mistakes, didn't check anything else.
 
Kext are installed, SSDT-GPRW installed. In clover kext-inject autodetected. (make this after debug.zip, but is now enabled)

I'm sorry, too many things at once
EDIT//
After correctly installing kexts and disabling GPU, now i have battery two times long. My Microsoft Desginer mouse connecting and work all times after reboot/sleep. Sleep seems work too
I think this is time for fight with full touchpad gestures and repair battery refresh status, under 94% status don't change.

You will need to describe your issues in detail.
