Yep. It's 10.8.4 version. I used unibeast to make the usb installer.

Do you have DSDT patches present for HD4000 ig-platform-id? Do you have a display if you connect a monitor with HDMI? What is your installation procedure? (eg. post-installation tasks).
 
Yep, i've patched with this :

Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
{
Store (Package (0x04)
{
"AAPL,ig-platform-id",
Buffer (0x04)
{
0x03, 0x00, 0x66, 0x01
},

"hda-gfx",
Buffer (0x0A)
{
"onboard-1"
}
}, Local0)
\_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP.DPOF ()
DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
Return (Local0)
}

The line with PEGP.DPOF () is to shut down the Discrete Graphics (This laptop has Hybrid Graphics, but, i don't need AMD Working, so i've seen around the web that calling the OFF Method could turn off that chip. And no, i don't have the option to disable it from BIOS).

Nope, nothing is displayed if i connect a Monitor to the HDMI.

These are the steps i take after installing:

1.- Copy DSDT, SSDT and SMBios MBA5,2
2.- Combo 10.8.5
3.- Multibeast to patch CPUPowerManagement, install Bootloader, USB3, ALX.
4.- VoodooPS2 install.
5.- AppleHDA Patching.
6.- Realtek 11n USB Wifi. (Because the Integrated Atheros just don't work on OS X)

It could be your Radeon drivers are still loading and your system is confused. You might try removing them. I'm certain there could be a DSDT patch for that too (map the device-id to an unrecognized one).

I'm assuming by the above DSDT patch that your screen is 1366x768.

Also boot "-v" and post the resulting screen.
 
Yep, i moved all the ATI/AMD Kexts, i don't know if i must include something more:

Code:
AMDRadeonAccelerator.kext
ATI2400Controller.kext
ATI2600Controller.kext
ATI3800Controller.kext
ATI4600Controller.kext
ATI4800Controller.kext
ATI5000Controller.kext
ATI6000Controller.kext
ATI7000Controller.kext
ATIFramebuffer.kext
ATIRadeonX2000.kext
ATISupport.kext

Let me boot in -v and i'll put the pic here =)

What is your screen resolution?
 
The native resolution is 1366x768.
 
The native resolution is 1366x768.

Try the laptop patch repo here: https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch

Then apply both "HD4000 Low Resolution" and "Brightness fix" patches. Save the changes to /Extra/dsdt.aml to try.

Or maybe you already have that in your DSDT? (ig-platform-id = 0166003)

Also you could try adding setting Graphics Mode in your /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist:
Code:
	<key>Graphics Mode</key>
	<string>1366x768x32</string>
