It was a bluetooth issue. Culprit was Bluetoolfixup kext. Removed and stayed a sleep. Replaced it with a newer version, and now works. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I think now everything works, except for WIFI specific functions.

Thanks Herve. I'm not sure what you mean about sleep/hibernation setting. Where can I get that from? EFI.zip

Can someone tell me what is causing the wake from sleep issue from below? Its a latitude 5480 with i5 7300U with latest monterey and OC. All seems to work good so far except for this issue below. I appreciate any help.

Hi. How did you get the UEFI installer to boot from USB? What version BIOS you are running?

thanks. i found it, changed some id's, and didn't work. I installed the patch and played id's as well with the patch plist. Nothing seems to wake this SD card reader. I'm not smart enough to figure it out. Too bad, hopefully someone will figure it out.

Is this a directory that maverick contains? Don't see /usr/libexec/ anywhere I found smartcard services with spotlight. weird I don't see anywhere but its there, lets see if i can play around with the plist id's

Hi Bronxtech thanks for the replies. The link is on post#2 from Herve.

When I do that the only file shows up is the plist file

Yes I see that and a couple more files but how do you open that?

Thats the thing i don't see any kext in the installer

Hi Herve. I looked into that patch, my product ID 0129 was not listed in the plist file. It has others like 0139..I was afraid to install in mav, not knowing what file it installs or where it puts it, so I installed in ML drive and didn't work. I would like to change one of those product id to mine but I don't know where the installer install the plist file.

Does anyone know how to make the SD card reader work on a 13z? It has been a real struggle. I tried all sort of kexts. Anyone suggestion or help is appreciated. It seems to be a realtek? or am I reading this wrong?

Actually I have the 13z-3637slv model, some reason I thought it was a 5253, They look the same, and may be the same thing. I have i3 3227U 1.9ghz. Yes I have a patched dsdt and everything works except sd card reader. However I just upgraded to 10.9.2 and had to take out generic USB kext and the framebuffercapri to make it boot properly, So I suspect HDMI out won't work now. It worked before. I also lost USB 2.0 functionality taking out the generic usb text. The only thing I could not get is a patched audio HDA to work, so I settled with voodoo. I spend weeks trying to get the SD card to work and nothing. Im a newbie at this, so sort of gave up on it. Then I read you post and got excited, This card reader is very hard to get to work. This 13z though is sweet, perfect size

Harverby, I see here you have the SD card reader working? I have same 13z, and that's the only thing I can't get to work. What kext are you using?

Looks like a bunch of errors..see attached files. If its not an easy fix, then i suppose I can do with voodoohda. it's a little buggy, but works. Also once i get this SD card reader to work I can post a guide on this little dell here. files.zip
