alxr89 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Hi, I'm running Yosemite on my acer Aspire 1810tz cpu : intel core 2 Duo , SU 4100 ram: 2 GB gpu: Intel gm-45 When I try to check "show battery percentage" from "battery" preferences, it has been unchecked automatically. However I'm still using my stock battery. Could you suggest me any kext to install?

Allan Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Thanks but i'm not able to boot with this option. You can't use this boot-argument? Why? You have some error? For Yosemite is obligatory.

alxr89 Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 I've tried again, now with kext-dev-mode boot successfully. But I'm not yet able to enable "show battery status" flag. Should I install kext after boot with kext-dev-mode=1 ?

Allan Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Should I install kext after boot with kext-dev-mode=1 ? Yes. And repair the disk permissions. If this kext don't work, you can use this tip: DSDT/SSDT: Enable battery by patching your DSDT using pre-made patches ( Laptop-exclusive ) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/306708-battery-status-not-available-acer-aspire-1810tz/#findComment-2147227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
