[Guide] Native Power Management for Laptops

[RehabMan]

i had previously followed both those guides. per your ssdt filtering guidelines, the only ssdt's that i thought needed to be loaded are -6 and -7.

Your DSDT did not appear to be patched with the common patches mentioned in the guide.

i thought i had proper HD4600. i have full resolution and QE/CI. what did you see in my dsdt/ssdt/ioreg that i need to change?

You did not follow the guide. No sign of FakePCIID, and your config.plist contains patches for the kexts.

Use AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementInfo.kext. HwMonitor is not a valid way to test pstates/CPU PM.

I now have pic to help explain. The first half if the graph is the laptop plugged in being stress tested the second half unplugged.

I have no idea why this is happening. Any ideas?

Use AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementInfo.kext to see what is going on with the multiplier.

This is my output after reboot being plugged in

So for some reason, you're getting locked at x12 when AC adapter is plugged in...

Hey OP.

I'm having an issue with my laptop not able to speedster or turboboost when plugged in the wall. Only on battery. I've searched the thread and couldn't find anything.

I have a i7 3610QM in a DV7-7008. Unibeast install of Yosemite 10.10.2. Multicast patched aicpm.kext

Could you help?

Here are the terminal commands
Lauras-MacBook-Pro:RehabMan laura$ kextstat|grep -y acpiplat

Am I to assume you didn't take any of my advice in post #203?

Because if you had, your files would/should be different.

So, if you did, post updated files.

If you didn't, read again post #203.

Oh and side note. My battery is being seen, shows percentage etc. However does not charge? I tried looking in DSDT to see where it determines were its on battery, so I could hack the value so it was always registering on battery so I could atlas get full speeds.
However I couldn't find this.

The ioreg does not show any active battery status (nothing attached to BAT0).

And you have not applied the common patches to this DSDT.

My advice now is the same as post #203.
