I've been working with rehabman's tutorial to get my dsdt extracted and patched. Rehabman has been of great help and i have successfully extracted my dsdt and patched it but now when i replace it in the extra folder and reboot, my laptop just loads the apple logo with the turning circle endlessly. i've waited 30 mins and it still remains. i dont know what to do. Ive tried re extracting and patching 3 different times but the same thing happens every time. can anyone please give me pointers? i dont wish to give up on this process just yet. thank you

At Chimera boot prompt choose verbose booting or type -v and see why the process is getting stuck.

Post both your unpatched dsdt and patched dsdt that doesn't work. I can run the autopatch on your native dsdt and diff against the one you created...
 
thanks rehabman i will post, in the mean time, here is the message i get in -v mode

Airport: RSN handshake complete on en1

OK, then... nothing wrong with that DSDT. Maybe it is worthwhile comparing it against the dsdt that is working...

Code: 
# copy it out of /Extra/dsdt.aml (assuming the one that is working is installed)
cp /Extra/dsdt.aml dsdt_that_is_working.aml
# disassemble, then compile, so there is some consistency in compilers used...
iasl -d dsdt_that_is_working.aml
iasl dsdt_that_is_working.dsl
# disassemble the one that doesn't work
iasl -d dsdt_patched_that_is_not_working.aml
# now compare ...
diff dsdt_that_is_working.dsl dsdt_patched_that_is_not_working.dsl
# now analyze output

And... have you tried a fresh install lately? Important to take random kexts out of the equation, especially if your install has gone through a lot of churn during the process...

thats what my suspicions are too. I'm thinking something to do with my wifi kext. Is there a way to auto remove kexts? like an app to do it? what kexts do u suggest i should consider removing

I would try fresh install to a secondary partition just to test. That eliminates a lot of variables. Then, depending on the results of that, you can start comparing kexts from fresh to your old install.
