[h=1][/h]RehabMan i need your clarification again.
I've got two problems.
The first is on the battery indicator. I used a kext that I had used and the Mavericks had worked perfectly. I followed a tutorial I found that said the following:
1 - Removing /System/Library/Extensions/AppleSmartBatteryManager.kext
2 - In the same folder AppleACPIPlatform.kext replace the file (this being version 1.3.6)
3 - Add the file VoodooBattery.kext (This being the 2008-09 Superhai version)
After performing this procedure and have gone wrong. I used another AppleACPIPlatform.kext (Version: 1.3.5) and VoodooBattery.kext he passed me by Coincidence is the same which I was using.


The second problem is less relevant and on the touchpad. I can only click by turning the knob.


Any idea what I can do?


Already grateful for the attentiveness

Undo all of the above.

You have a "knob" that you "turn" to "click" on your touchpad??

RehabMan, this is common? Captura de Tela 2014-10-25 às 20.52.14.png


The graphical error in which I mentioned in another post and you explained very well, I'm with a new question. This distortion occurs that can be harmful to the system?

I have no idea what it says.

I don't think so. Maybe it contributes to instability, I know similar problems we had with HD3000 on the ProBook (caused by people using DSDTs from other computers) also caused instability.

"The battery is low
The Mac go to sleep if it is not plugged into an outlet."
However I'm 92% of charged battery

Dude I do not think I can do that.
I have little experience with mac. You explain very well but yes I still get lost when performing this type of maneuver.
Is there any method less complicated for a newbie like me?
