Black screen after screen automatically off (or lock)

[AlexViean]

After I imported some pictures to my Photos library, the screen woke with a backlit black screen which eventually had to be forced to power down using power button. Removed the photos library to see if that changed the situation, and it did. Still don't really know why.
Have you guys been using Photos app?

haven't even opened it

You two have completely different hardware. Like comparing broccoli to cauliflower.

lol. why haven't you added this error to "the common problems" thread? Apparently I'm not the only one reporting it.

So far, the pattern is not clear.
On some workiing, some not (Probook reported as working, for example, others too).
And many that report this problem have completely screwed up configurations.
Only pattern so far: Systems that are working have guides created by knowledgeable people (usually using ACPI hotpatch) and on laptops with ability to set DVMT-prealloc correctly.

Could you tell me what I did wrong to my configurations?

Your kextcache shows issues:

AppleIntelLpssI2CController.kext - dependency 'com.apple.driver.AppleIntelLpssI2C' not found.
AppleIntelLpssI2CController.kext is missing dependencies (including anyway; dependencies may be available from elsewhere)
AppleIntelLpssI2CController.kext - dependency 'com.apple.driver.AppleIntelLpssI2C' not found.
AppleHPM.kext is missing dependencies (including anyway; dependencies may be available from elsewhere)
Kext with invalid signatured (-67030) allowed: <OSKext 0x7f96db41c6e0 [0x7fffa44c55b0]> { URL = "AppleBacklight.kext/ -- file:///System/Library/Extensions/", ID = "com.apple.driver.AppleBacklight" }
Invalid signature -67050 for kext <OSKext 0x7f96ddbdfd90 [0x7fffa44c55b0]> { URL = "BTFirmwareUploader.kext/ -- file:///Library/Extensions/", ID = "org.emlydinesh.driver.BTFirmwareUploader" }

You should delete AppleHPM.kext so you can rebuild cache without errors.
Also, BTFirmwareUploader.kext is not recommended.

You should also try 0x191b0000 (or other valid ig-platform-id values).

You also did not implement backlight control according to my guide. Read here:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...rol-using-applebacklightinjector-kext.218222/

Although not likely related (because the problem happens with only "display sleep"), your USB configuration is wrong. See guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-creating-a-custom-ssdt-for-usbinjectall-kext.211311/

You're using the 32mb DVMT-prealloc patch. No idea why... ASUS laptops can usually set DVMT-prealloc to 64mb.

Check also that CSM/legacy boot is enabled in BIOS (even though you continue to boot UEFI).

Your ACPI configuration is wrong. To allow SSDT-12.aml to replace native (assuming that is your intention), you must name it correctly (it would be SSDT-5.aml if you extracted with current Clover). And you must use config.plist/ACPI/AutoMerge=true (and current Clover).
Details in the guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-patching-laptop-dsdt-ssdts.152573/

Your ACPI/origin files are way too old (from July 15, 2017). Seems likely your ACPI/patched may not be in sync with current ACPI/origin if re-extracted. I did not bother comparing ACPI/origin to ACPI/patched due to the fact that ACPI/origin is so old.

Wow I didn't know I made so many mistakes that much. Thank you very much for taking your time.

It may not help with your specific issue, but it is best to eliminate all mistakes as a way to eliminate sources for problems.

Hi,
my laptop is HP EliteBook 840 G3, i7 6th, display FHD.
I followed the Rehabmen guide for 10.13 installation at this link:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...book-zbook-using-clover-uefi-hotpatch.232948/
And I have the same problem described here: when display goes off, later it don't wake. The strange thing is that the backlight works.
Actually I have upgraded to 10.13.1, but the problem still remain.

Furthermore I have 2 external monitor (VGA+DP) that wake normally from sleep, but laptop screen still black.

From where must I start for to understand what to do?

Thanks
