Yes. That seemed to be my problem. I am still new to using clover. On my Yosemite USB installer, I still have chameleon/chimera and it's was my no-fail boot option when I was first testing out clover. So I tired that DSDT.aml on my USB, and sure enough, it booted right up and showed the battery percentage. So then I relaized that it was one of my Clover boot options that was stopping me. I still need to read up a bit more about SSDT dropping, But I know that I unchecked the option for SSDT _DSM, around the time it started showing the battery with Clover boots. Now it looks like I just need to rework a few SSDTs. One for power managment and the other to bring back my brigness slider. This laptop is powerful but the battery life is sad, and not just because of me running OS X and Linux but Windows users with the same exact model are saying the same thing. The dismal battery life is really my only complaint so far, but I can live with it.

Yes! Thank you for the links! I had the one about ACPI bookmarked but not the one about Clover what's what. It seems to be working now so far! Just need to redo speed step and my brightness slider patches to a few SSDTs. As you say "Good Hack" Thanks again!

Thank you for your efforts but this doesn't seem to work for some reason. Clover seems to not load the new DSDT.aml, even though it's in the correct folder. Do I need to boot a specific way before I use the RunMe.app?

Hello, I Have an HP 15-T i7-4710hq 15t-k000 laptop and have been doing well so far after installing Yosemite, but cannot seem to get the battery patched. I guess I don't understand how to break it all down to 8-bits. I am not a programmer or ACPI expert sadly. I would like to please request a working battery DSDT. Everything else seems to work on this laptop except for the battery. I will run the RunMe.app mentioned in the first post and upload the results. Thank you. Send me Tom’s MacBook Pro.zip
