Do anyone of you face the problem of low backlight? I now successfully boot it with clover legacy but the backlight level is not adjustable and it is definitely dimmer than in UEFI mode(i.e. Windows). How to solve the issue?
 
I have done necessary patches already but it seems that the backlight will be a bit dimmer than in UEFI mode since the loading of the BIOS. When Clover is loading with -v, the screen brightness become normal. And once Mac loaded, the brightness go dimmer again. I want to know if this is the common problem of legacy boot Clover.
I got the same problem in OS10.12.4,but uefi boot on me(bios 1.0.1).
EDIT:back to 10.11.6.

Here you go. I have applied the AppleBacklightInjector patch you mentioned above and now it gets a little bit brighter but still obviously dimmer then UEFI Windows.

Why do you have AppleBacklightInjector.kext installed in two places?
Code:
Davids-MacBook-Pro:~ david$ sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /
Password:
kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67062 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA0A for kext AppleBacklightInjector.kext
...
kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67062 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA0A for kext AppleBacklightInjector.kext
...

One or both of them is not up-to-date...

You're right. I accidentally used the wrong one. I have updated it and still no luck. Need to redo the whole problem reporting things?
