Maybe is the wrong place, sorry please.

Unless I'm mistaken, or have forgotten about some other patch I've applied somewhere, I no longer need to patch the AppleRTC binary for 10.8 DP3. Rebooting after a sleep/wake cycle now performs normally without any CMOS error.

+1. But here now in 10.7.4 (11E52) on sandy bridge laptop. Vanilla AppleRTC (1.5), and I just have the fix IRQ8 out of Device:

                Device (RTC)
                {
                    Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0B00"))
                    Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate ()
                    {
                        IO (Decode16,
                            0x0070,             // Range Minimum
                            0x0070,             // Range Maximum
                            0x01,               // Alignment
                            0x08,               // Length
                            )
/*
                        IRQNoFlags ()
                            {8}
*/
                    })
                }

Can somebody else check this on their setup?

Same here, and I acctually don't need it in 10.7.3 either. Got a Asus P8Z68-V LX and the 3k version of the UEFI-BIOSes for Asus z68-boards seems like made for hacks.

[Riley Freeman]

I still need it here with a GA-965P-S3 (10.7.4). If I do a sleep/wake cycle and then reboot the CMOS is reset.

[STLVNUB]

Would be 'nice' if somebody with a Mac can give me some CloverRTCTool dumps to have a look at.
Particularly a normal boot dump, after sleep dump and after wake dump.
Thanks

Have you changed AHCi to ESB2?
Have changed ICH10 to ESB2, I don't need patch AppleRTC.kext anymore, both 10.7 and 10.8

[rayap]

And again, there appears to be no change in the size of the Unix Executable AppleRTC file at 66,320 bytes in ML DP4. So the patch in the OP does help as expected.
Rgds.

[Kynyo]

I preffer to patch! Is more easy to use and vanilla style in combination with a DSDT!

[rayap]

It appears all is same and well in Gold Master for those who require the patch.

I'll try on 10.8 GM in a few moments. Will report back.

Just need to grab the tool, where is it?

[Maniac10]

I had to patch it, tested without it and got the bios reset on reboot. Running the GM on a Z68AP-D3

@rayap

after reading another thread about ML install, i am a bit confused. Can i copy the AppleRTC.kext to /Extra/Extensions, patch it and keep it there or do i need to copy the patched AppleRTC.kext back to /System/Extensions?
I would like to keep the unpatched kext in /System/Extensions

Under Lion, the patched kext is loaded from /Extra/Extensions and that worked good.

You can use the AppleRTC.kext the same way You've done in Lion. I'm loading the kext from E/E and have the original in S/L/E.

@ApexDE
Me too like yure, patching a copy in E/E and leaving the original in S/L/E.

[EnzoFX]

So are you guys using the one in the OP or the longer one further down that's the one used in Lion?

I still needed that patch in Lion with almost every point update, so I'm sure I'll need it to for 10.8. Maybe we can get people to chime in whether AppleRTC was changed, with every future point update, and whether or not they needed to patch once again ;-).

So now I wonder if this is working in 10.8.1. and if it needed re-patching.

[rayap]

There's not been regular changes to AppleRTC exec file from DP1 thro 10.8.1 - so the OP patch will work. If you replaced the kext file with any update, guess you have to patch again.

[Kynyo]

For easy to use method, just backup Patched AppleRTC before you update, then reinstall and rebuild kext cache!

[aylamrin]

Could somebody provide me the patched kext?

[og-phantom]

Could somebody provide me the patched kext?

No need to download a kext. Patch yours with the first post from the OP. It's a simple perl script, cut and paste it into a terminal.

[Hackintosh2000]

Could somebody provide me the patched kext?

I see google is having an outage in your area.

Get the file from HERE.

I was actually going to download that file but the uploader was kind enough to put the code he used right in the description. Open terminal and run this...

sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x75\x30\x89\xd8|\xeb\x30\x89\xd8|' /System/Library/Extensions/AppleRTC.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleRTC

This line of code patches the AppleRTC.kext in your S/L/E folder as opposed to one located in the E/E folder (If you even have on there). I don't have any kexts in my E/E folder so I had to use the attached bit of code.

Indeed!

On GA-EP45-DS3 (F9) I have used just custom DSDT.aml, FakeSMC, AppleHDA rollback and RealtekRTL81xx kexts. There was no need to patch AppleRTC. The system with 10.8.1 is fully functional and stable. To verify the rersult, I have completely reinstalled the system over the weekend.
