Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 30, 2020 Moderators Share Posted December 30, 2020 Download ACPIBatteryManager.kext, place it in /EFI/OC/Kexts In the Config file, under Kernel/Add, find SMCBatteryManager.kext and disable it Add ACPIBatteryManager.kext to Config file under Kernel/Add. Use ProperTree.app if you're familiar with it to add Save and reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jantestmac Posted January 4, 2021 Author Share Posted January 4, 2021 Can I have the link or something for ACPIBatteryManager as most of the file I tried two but none seems to work correctly but I do think it's the wrong file as both of them were uploaded more than two years ago if I am not wrong. Also I had one more question I should also remove the SMCBatteryManager right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted January 4, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 4, 2021 It's not a recent kext; last version is available off Rehabman's repo. You probably already have it. Of course you either use ACPIBatteryBattery (with FakeSMC) or SMCBatteryManager (with VirtualSMC), not both at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jantestmac Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I did try that out no help at all in battery life improvement. I was out of town for quite sometime and just got back. Also I am seeing some things before boot up which looks like issues. I googled those issues but couldn't find out any potential solution. I am attaching a photo here for that. If someone has fixed this or have any info of this please help Any help on this will be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted March 5, 2021 Moderators Share Posted March 5, 2021 Looks like you have a mixed of old Config.plist and new OC files or vise versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted March 5, 2021 Administrators Share Posted March 5, 2021 the solution is you have to update your config file to correspond with the version of bootloader you are using. some features where removed and or added / replaced from the version of bootloader you are using and the config you are using.

jantestmac Posted March 9, 2021 Author Share Posted March 9, 2021 I don't have my system running right now. Though I am using the bootpack uploaded here and I have uploaded IoReg file in previous post too. Need Help: As suggested by people above I tried to update the config file as well as update opencore so that config.plist is similar to original sample.plist in latest release. So to do that I watched a YT video which suggested to clear NVRam I cleared NVRam from the opencore menu but I think I might have done a mistake and now a BSOD error comes. Saying there is a problem. Any solution for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted March 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted March 9, 2021 double check your bios settings. you might have to turn on ahci again or might have to reset your bios to defaults and re adjust your settings. like DVMT if that was needed.
