kinhhoang161 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) Hello everyone, I have an Asus TUF Gaming F15 Laptop with the following specs: CPU: i5-10300H GPU: UHD630 and GTX1650 ( This dGPU is super strange, I'll explain below ) RAM: 16GB SSD: SN550 Wifi: Unsupported SOLVED: I used the EFI folder and maLd0n and brightness worked (with the Slice's AAPL,backlight-control value too). I have successfully installed macOS Sonoma on my machine. Everything works perfectly except the screen brightness. I can't control it even though I have SSDT-PNLF (tried SSDT-PNFL-CFL) and SSDT-NoHybGfx.aml to disable dGPU but I still can't control the screen brightness. I checked Hackintool -> Pcie and discovered that even though the dGPU was Disabled, it still appeared with GFX0 (it seems to conflict with the IGPU so PNLF was not patched for the iGPU). I have tried many ways to Disable GFX0 of the dGPU but all failed (it still appears there without being lost). I also tried rename GFX0 to iGPU but it didn't work either. If anyone knows or has experience with a situation like mine, please help me. Thank you very much. Below are my DSDT and EFI folders: DSDT.aml EFI.zip Edited January 28 by kinhhoang161 SOLVED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaLd0n Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Test it EFI.zip -Last Bios UEFI Version -Delete old EFI folder and paste new. Don't use merge files -Don't use Drag and Drop into EFI partition. Use Copy/Paste instead -Reset NVRAM one time - with OpenCore use entry "Reset Nvram" / with Clover use F11 key on boot screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinhhoang161 Posted January 28 Author Share Posted January 28 @MaLd0n Thank you very much for helping me. I used your EFI build for me along with AAPL,backlight-control (I kept adding it even though I didn't know if it was necessary). but finally the screen brightness worked. I was able to control the screen brightness. If you can help me explain why you did that, I don't see you using any SSDT to Disable dGPU but only using boot-args (but it also works). Anyway I'm very grateful, thank you very much. @Slice Thank you very much for your help. I have controlled the brightness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
