I check DSDT and make sure that EmbeddedControl field's Items are 8-bit.

Extract the 'patchmatic' binary from the ZIP. Copy it to /usr/bin, such that you have the binary at /usr/bin/patchmatic.

In terminal,

if [ -d ~/Downloads/RehabMan ]; then rm -R ~/Downloads/RehabMan; fi
mkdir ~/Downloads/RehabMan
cd ~/Downloads/RehabMan
patchmatic -extract

Note: It is easier if you use copy/paste instead of typing the commands manually.

Hi, RehabMan
Here is the infortmation you need. BTW, The kexts about IntelCPU can't be load on my Laptop. Because there no output when type `kextstat|grep -y appleintelcpu` on Terminal.

The problem is you have multiple battery objects active, but only one working.

Disable the second battery object (BAT1) by returning 0 from its _STA method.

I check the code, and found that the original code BAT1 _STA return Zero.

Device (BAT1)
            {
                Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C0A"))  // _HID: Hardware ID
                Name (_UID, 0x02)  // _UID: Unique ID
                Name (_PCL, Package (0x01)  // _PCL: Power Consumer List
                {
                    _SB
                })
                Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)  // _STA: Status
                {
                    Store (EEAC (0x05, Zero), Local0)
                    If (LLess (Local0, 0x02))
                    {
                        Return (Zero)
                    }

                    Store (ECG5 (), Local0)
                    And (Local0, 0x08, Local0)
                    If (Local0)
                    {
                        Return (0x1F)
                    }

                    Return (Zero)
                }

                Method (_BIF, 0, NotSerialized)  // _BIF: Battery Information
                {
                    Name (BIF1, Package (0x0D) {})
                    ECG9 (0x02, BIF1)
                    Return (BIF1)
                }

                Method (_BST, 0, NotSerialized)  // _BST: Battery Status
                {
                    Name (BST1, Package (0x04) {})
                    ECG6 (0x02, BST1)
                    Return (BST1)
                }
            }

Disable the second battery object (BAT1) by returning 0 from its _STA method.

The problem like that when I disconnect AC Adapter. I modified BAT1 boject and make its _STA do noting but return Zero. Now I can see only 1 Battery device in IOReg, but the problem is unsolved.
Maybe it related the IGPU Power Manage?

Remove entire BAT1 device.

Sometimes the charging/discharging current is wrong. For example the charging current sometimes shows 1 mA under system information, which is wrong. I have to unplug and plug one or more times to get correct values. How to solve this problem?

Thanks.

You need to debug your DSDT battery methods. Use ACPIDebug. Refer to the ACPI spec for information on _BST.
