[Akkinmore]

Your ACPI configuration is wrong.
See guide:

Hi RehabMan,
Yes I followed the link you mentioned and the [Guide]Asus Zenbook UX310UA MacOS/High Sierra Installation Guide. I have checked again and did not find anything. Can you give me some glues as where did I do wrong?
Thank you.

With IGPU only, no need to patch any SSDTs.
Read here carefully:
http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html

NullEthernet.kext needs only SSDT-RMNE.aml.

Mutex can be fixed with config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Fixes/FixMutex=true

Any change requires new "problem reporting" files. None attached.

I have error on SSDT-5 when compile SSDT-5.dsl file....so I don't need to patch and save to patch folder?
If all the SSDT-0 to SSDT-5 file don't need to patch. Do I need to save it to the patched folder as the origin folder has all SSDT.aml files? Sorry for the silly question as the guide that I mentioned previously indicated that I should save in patched folder. To me, it is not very clear.
I will try to redo the DSDT again.

Without dual GPU, no need to patch (or recompile) any SSDTs. In fact, no need for any OEM SSDTs in ACPI/patched at all.

Hi RehabMan,
You mentioned IGPU. Do you mean I have to patch "Rename GFX0 to IGPU" for SSDT-0 to SSDT-5?

Hi RehabMan,

Common renames (such as GFX0->IGPU) are already done in config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Patches in all guide provided plists:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

No need to do those renames manually in any file (not even DSDT.aml).

Hi RehabMan,
I have made some changes but the battery status is not showing on the top bar. The battery can charge and discharge normally but seems consume more power than win10. Is this normal ?
Attached the new files after changes. Thank you.

When I checked your DSDT you do not have the ASUS SN55L patch added. Check again, make sure you save it as ACPI machine language file and put in patched folder.

Also make sure you have these kexts installed as well. This will let hardware monitor app run which also shows battery status, after you patch your DSDT with ASUS battery patch you will get the icon with percentage on top bar as well.
