Nozaki Yuu Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) Hi! I'm new to the Hackintosh community. I want to ask for help for my newly installed Hackintosh with macOS Catalina (10.15.7) on Acer TravelMate P249-G2-M. I have read Dortania's Guide about installing Hackintosh and OpenCore and I had almost all things worked, except the battery indicator. It doesn't show any battery indicator on my Hackintosh. It successfully showed the indicator before but after installing Windows alongside the Hackintosh it disappeared. I tried many things from changing kexts, dumping and patching DSDT and SSDT, etc. but nothing works for me. Thank all of you for your help. This image was captured after I successfully installed Hackintosh on my computer: And that's my Hackintosh right now: There's no more battery indicator on the top left of the menu bar. Specifications: Laptop: Acer TravelMate P249-G2-M CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50GHz (4 CPUs)RAM: 4.00GB Disk: 120GB SSD + 750GB HDD Audio: Realtek ALC255 Graphics: Intel(R) HD Graphics 620 Ethernet: Realtek RTL8111 Wi-Fi: Intel(R) Dual-Band Wireless AC 7265 Below here is my EFI folder link. I used VoodooHDA instead of AppleALC because my Hackintosh didn't recognize the audio when using it. If anyone can also help me solve that problem, I'll appreciate it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SSwsA7sKfCg2n1x4r-THJsW7UffZounS/view?usp=sharing Edited October 24, 2022 by Nozaki Yuu Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354558-battery-indicator-error-on-macos-catalina-10157/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Windows should not influence on battery indicator in macOS. So you changed something in the OC folder. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354558-battery-indicator-error-on-macos-catalina-10157/#findComment-2795818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avery B Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Your SSDT-Batt shouldn't be needed when using ECEnabler.kext. It allows the EC reads to go over 8 bits, so your patches to make all the fields 8 bits is needlessly complicated (especially since it's easy to make mistakes. I've been there!) 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354558-battery-indicator-error-on-macos-catalina-10157/#findComment-2795843 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nozaki Yuu Posted October 24, 2022 Author Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) Wait the solution of both @Slice and @1Revenger1 actually worked, thank both of you so much I actually had spent a lot of days fixing this one 😭 Edited October 24, 2022 by Nozaki Yuu Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354558-battery-indicator-error-on-macos-catalina-10157/#findComment-2795847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
