[m0ustafamahm0ud]

great work sir

Hi,

can anyone help me with this problem?

I try to patch dsdt for battery and find this fields that are call in EC:

B1DC, 16,

B1FV, 16,

B1FC, 16,

B1CR, 16,

B1RC, 16,

BCYC, 16,

then patch as guide suggested :

into device label EC code_regex B1DC,\s+16, replace_matched begin 1DC0,8,1DC1,8, end;

into device label EC code_regex B1FV,\s+16, replace_matched begin 1FV0,8,1FV1,8, end;

into device label EC code_regex B1FC,\s+16, replace_matched begin 1FC0,8,1FC1,8, end;

into device label EC code_regex B1CR,\s+16, replace_matched begin 1CR0,8,1CR1,8, end;

into device label EC code_regex B1RC,\s+16, replace_matched begin 1RC0,8,1RC1,8, end;

into device label EC code_regex BCYC,\s+16, replace_matched begin CYC0,8,CYC1,8, end;

when i compile dsdt i receive this error :

18980, 6126, syntax error, unexpected PARSEOP_INTEGER, expecting ',' or '}'

and I don't know how to go on.

Pleasse help me!

This is just one of the steps. Did you follow up with the subsequent steps as suggested in original post?

Hi onemanosx,

I have followed your guide to patch dsdt for HP Spectre X360 late 2019 laptop but I still cannot see the battery % and status. I have attached RunMe dump onedrive link (file too big to attach). I need battery status working so I can access touchpad settings properly. I2c trackpad and touchscreen work except tap to click and two tap for right clicking but clicking the trackpad physically, works for left mouse clicking.

link - https://1drv.ms/u/s!AgsMleu5IhjT-1pA17DpNG_h1Jrv?e=QrksZ0

Patches applied to dsdt prior to patching for battery status include the following

- remove _DSM methods

- Fix _IRC Error

- Fix ADBG Error

- Add MCHC

- Fix _WAK Arg0 v2

- Fix Mutex

- Fix HPET

- Fix IRQ

- OS Check Fix (Windows 10)

- USB 3_PRW 0X6D Skylake

- Brightness Fix

- GPIO Controller Enable [sKL+]

For battery patching, i did the following

*Variables greater than 8 bytes in EmbeddedControl

SMD0, 256 ——> x ---> Not called elsewhere in EC

BADC, 16 ———>X ----> Not called elsewhere in EC

BFCC, 16 ———> YES

MCUR, 16 ———>YES

MBRM, 16 ———>YES

MBCV, 16 ————>YES

*insert code below to patch window

into device label EC0 code_regex BFCC,\s+16, replace_matched begin FCC0,8,FCC1,8, end;

into device label EC0 code_regex MCUR,\s+16, replace_matched begin CUR0,8,CUR1,8, end;

into device label EC0 code_regex MBRM,\s+16, replace_matched begin BRM0,8,BRM1,8, end;

into device label EC0 code_regex MBCV,\s+16, replace_matched begin BCV0,8,BCV1,8, end;

* manually edit errors

^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.BFCC -> B1B2(^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.FCC0,^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.FCC1) /* \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.BFCC */

^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.MCUR -> B1B2(^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.CUR0,^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.CUR1) /* \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.MCUR */

^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.MBRM -> B1B2(^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.BRM0,^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.BRM1) /* \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.MBRM */

^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.MBCV -> B1B2(^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.BCV0,^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.BCV1) /* \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.MBCV */

*insert code below to patch window

into method label B1B2 remove_entry;

into definitionblock code_regex . insert

begin

Method (B1B2, 2, NotSerialized) { Return(Or(Arg0, ShiftLeft(Arg1, 8))) }\n

end;

*Insert code below in patch window

#utility methods to read/write buffers from/to EC......

No luck, any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you

[onemanosx]

BADC, 16

Add patch for BADC.

For I2C, You should remove VoodooI2CELAN from wherever folder that you had installed it. Only use VoodooI2CHID and VoodooI2C kexts.

Just install battery kext in C/K/O. Read post 1.

Congratulations for this contribution!!!

By the way, I have one doubt about patching DSDT/SSDT. RehabMan says that "the OS Check Fix patch we use has nothing to do with the version of Windows the laptop came with, nor with the version of Windows we're currently using."

So how can I decide which Windows OS Check Fix I must apply to my DSDT?

THANK YOU!!!

check ur dsdt, search for _OSI

After a few attempts I managed to modify the patch so that it also works on mine.

Now i've a full working Hackintosh

Hi @onemanosx and thanks for the guide, two years ago I wrote my notebook patch. RH published it in its repositories (Wbin Airbook)

The problem is that today it no longer works. I extracted the dsdt / ssdt again, as you can see from my attachment

I noticed that there are more files than before, I mean that when I patched not all the RSDT-XXXX files.

In addition, the extracted files are full of errors that were not there before ...

My patch no longer works, you see the battery but I do not detect the battery charge or the state of charge, only occasionally it works, but not always, as it happened until some time ago.

Can you tell me what these RSDT are ?? Do I have to patch these too?

Send me MacBook-Pro.home-life.hub.zip

EDIT: I use MaciASL 1.5.7 - ASL version 20200214

Thanks for replying, but unfortunately nothing changes. The PC sees the battery but continues not to detect the charger, and does not show me the "charging" status.
I did a rune with your EFI, I had to keep my SSDT-1 because with the DSDT only it doesn't see the battery at all.
I noticed that you inserted a DEVICE (EC) ... embedded ... in the DSDT, in the original one there is not.
I wonder if the problem isn't caused by the modified DSDT.

With thisone DSDT i have also too many ACPI error at boot, please check the attached file
Should I also keep SSDT-EC and SSDT-UIAC in the patched folder?

This is a runme with the last  folder you sent me yesterday,
If I re-apply my patch (RH repo Wbin Airbook) to the original SSDT-1 file it does not apply all the patches… .this is strange

Send me MacBook-Pro.home-life.hub.zip

[R-88]

 

but the strangest thing is this: immediately after sending you the message above I put my previous EFI back. I started and now I see the battery charger .... and the status of the battery being charged. If reboot disappears again ...
