You can use the ProBook patches to enable this feature for your laptop (this technique actually applies to many HD3000/HD4000 laptops). But you will probably need custom data for the brightness levels. See post #11 for instructions on using RW-Everything on Windows to determine your brightness ranges under Windows.
 
My BAR1 is 0xC0000004

+ 4824c is 0xC0048250

Hi i m stopping here: - now you can see the 0x80000000 in the first dword at 0xd4048250 and the brightness value at 0xd4048254

I don t know how go, thanks

Use RW-Everthing to view your 0xC0048250 (Access->Memory).
 
Yup, i was on here, for example: highest value brightness to 0x80000000 is 00001312,

for you is possible that value? I need to know if i m reading good..

lowest value is: 00000132

Sounds reasonable. And your data is different than both 4x30s/4x40s. You can use nguyenmac's script to generate a custom patch for your laptop.

Hi, i tried your script with my hp dsdt posted above and it works, i have all levels without sleep/wake cycle but brightness levels are not like in windows

Windows levels are from lowest to highest: 132, 1a4, 218, 2c3, 3a9, 4dc, 66e, 873, b11, e95, 1312

I use dthe right command: ./brightnesspatch 132 1312 but problem remains, also playing with curve, 1, 4, etc.. no changes..

Thanks

brightnesspatch.sh expects values in decimal not hex.

Maybe you meant: ./brightnesspatch.sh 306 4882
