Hi all,
I have been using hackintoshes since snow leopard and have always been a fan. When I used El Capitan I faced this issue where there was no battery status. I fixed it by patching DSDT at that time. After long time I installed a fresh installation of macOS Mojave on a new drive and to my SURPRISE, it showed battery percentage in the status bar by default. I was so happy that I now don't have to patch DSDT/SSDTs. But to my disappointment, the next day when I booted the same macOS, there was no battery percentage. I tried a few things and then without wasting any time I started with DSDT patching.
1) I patched the HP Spectre XT patch as it solved all the 8-bit issues from DSDT (no errors).
2) I saved the patched file as ASL file and then renamed it to DSDT-Battery.aml.
3) I put this file in EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/PATCHED dir.
4) Install ACPIBatteryManager kext from rehbman downloads.
Now all I can see is 0% battery in the statusbar. I have tried everything and nothing works.
Can someone help me with this?
I have attached the details with this thread.
Hardware specifications:
Intel Core i5-4210U with Intel HD Graphics 4400 (1.7 GHz, 3 MB cache, 2 cores)
12 GB 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM (8 + 4 GB)
NVIDIA GeForce 820M (2 GB DDR3 dedicated)
500 GB 5400 rpm SATA
Thanks in advance.
