ftrela Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Hi, I'm running Mojave 10.14.6 on ASUS R556L laptop. I believe this is just a local model name for a bunch of laptops with X555L motherboard. I have managed to get most of the things working but I'm having problems with sleep. When I press Sleep button, the only thing that actually goes to sleep is the screen. Everything else is still working (I'm able to play music using keyboard shortcuts). I am unable to turn the screen back on though. Any help would be much appreciated, I have already tried numerous fixes but to no avail. Edit: Forgot to mention I swapped the stock wifi card for the BCM94352HMB. debug_18656.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eC//FrEaK Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Hi. 1. Remove "IntelGraphicsFixup.kext" and replace it with "WhatverGreen.kext" (Download WEG) 2. Check your hibernate status by typing the following in terminal "pmset -g | grep hibernatemode" Which mode is set? Report back after you have followed the steps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftrela Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 Thanks for helping me out! 1. I replaced it, it doesn't seem to make a difference regarding sleep 2. The pmset command returns 0 as the hibernate mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eC//FrEaK Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 @ftrela Ok, hibernate mode 0 is mostly used for desktop machines. Try "sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3" at the terminal, reboot and see if it makes any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftrela Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 Thanks, it actually did make a difference After a while the fans stopped and it seems it went to sleep. I pressed a key to wake it, the fans started working again but the screen remained black, I had to force shutdown. It seems to me that the problem may be in the nvidia graphics card. I've been trying to disable it with SSDT patches but it's still present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted August 7, 2019 Moderators Share Posted August 7, 2019 ADD this to ACPI/Patched to disable the discrete graphics SSDT-Disable-DGPU.aml.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftrela Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 Unfortunately that didn't help, I can still see it in SysInfo. Attaching a fresh dump.debug_24364.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted August 7, 2019 Moderators Share Posted August 7, 2019 Disable the rename of PEG0 to GFX0 in the Config file It's preventing the SSDT-disableDGPU.aml from executing properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftrela Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 I completely forgot I had it... Thanks, now the Nvidia card is no longer present. Still, I'm getting black screen on wake. I've tried applying a DSDT patch for that but it didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eC//FrEaK Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Apple released a "Supplemental Update" for macOS 10.14.6 just a few days ago. It includes a fix for an issue “that may prevent certain Macs from waking from sleep properly.” ... Maybe that can fix your problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
