Help with patches for Asus ROG Srtix GL503vm-ed251t

[broadw3ll]

@onemanosx hi pal Im still facing problems with the brightness... now in the same post some dudes are saying that it works (even in a very similar model as I have gl502vm) one guy gives me and idea... actually he didnt fixed it, but it sounds reasonable.

he post that he manage to make the display get recognized as internal.

in my case I have search in ioreg and it seems to be showed as an external display.

Do u have any idea ?

I might be able to help you with your brightness issue since I had been working on my old laptop with an nvidia gpu. I simply added pnlf device at my igpu device. Thats all. Sorry I cant help you further with details as I am not on my hack right now.

[broadw3ll]

that's what i have read in this post (https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/310180-internal-lcd-does-not-recognize-properly/)

"Check and post the IOReg info for device PNLF; it's for the built-in screen and specifies the display type you have. Its settings can be adjusted in DSDT. Or better, post your whole IOReg saved output + DSDT files. This is what I have in my E6440's DSDT and you'll clearly see the "backlight" _CID value. It may well be that you're simply missing that DSDT parameter:

Device (PNLF)

{

Name (_ADR, Zero) // _ADR: Address

Name (_HID, EisaId ("APP0002")) // _HID: Hardware ID

Name (_CID, "backlight") // _CID: Compatible ID

Name (_UID, 0x0F) // _UID: Unique ID

Name (_STA, 0x0B) // _STA: Status"

but the problem is where do i apply that ? in what part of the DSDT is the IGPU device parameter

im gonna try to do that the other option that i have read in the same post its try to inject display characteristics

Update me of your progress

I think your nvidia lies at scope PEG0 @00010000

Edit: Your ssdt should be accompanied with CPUFriend.kext

Hi pal I guess you are very close to the problem but again I have the same screen as I get with the last patch :$ Thanx for the help

[onemanosx]

I guess you are very close to the problem

Maybe. At least I know the code works somehow.. but that's all I can think of. Maybe you will have better luck continuing from the last DSDT

Hi onemanosx... I'm still facing problems with the brightness but by the moment im doing some research to get fully functional trackpad I have downloaded one kext that gives me the system preferences options working but the problem its that it work like for moments... I have take a screen shoot and im gonna attach that kext, I havent move any of the i2c patches that u make me the favor to do in my dstd... do u have any idea ? I think im pretty close to make this works.

UPDATE: with the last release it also works better tan with the attached kext but it stills getting the problem of working by moments, but I was able to check and the scroll with two fingers works... but by moments, also the trackpad preferences is working.

VoodooI2C.kext preferences.zip

[onemanosx]

I assume you are using a modded kext? What are the changes?

If the latest official release works, use it. Rebuild cache using kext utility and reboot. See if trackpad works better. Also post full run_me dump.

[broadw3ll]

Yes the attached text its probably a modded, the changes are the panel preferences work and some gestures but it works then stop and then works agains... lol.

the lastest official one works similar to the other one, I have rebuild the cache as you say... no change. Here you go my dump files if you can give a look

[onemanosx]

try this DSDT.aml.zip

 

Its also good to double check that the "ignore built-in trackpad" is NOT enabled

 

[broadw3ll]

I have checked that patch and it seems to work kind of better but it still work like for pauses, I have checked that option and is disabled, thanx pal

[onemanosx]

Great! Maybe its some kext issue. Go to dev site and make a case. Almost there!
