Laptop heats up and drains during sleep
Hi, thank you for all your work on this laptop @bavariancake! I have gotten many components to work (8750H, 1080p) and the device is pretty stable, but one issue I've been having is high battery drain during sleep.
Every time I put the laptop to sleep, it stays warm and seems to drop about 5-6% in battery per hour. Usually, the battery just ends up draining if I forget to shut it down at night.
I've tried many things, such as adjusting the sleep settings via pmset and monitoring the log--I am told by the log that my laptop goes into deep idle (not sleep) but that nothing wakes it up until I manually wake it up.
I am using a TP-LINK Wi-Fi dongle.
I was wondering if this was normal for others as well; otherwise, I will dig into the aml files, as I think there may be an issue with how my laptop is calling the PTS and WAK functions. Please let me know if any logs/files/screenshots will help.
I have the same issue on this EFI
any updates on this?
So, long story short I was having the same issue and a few other little minor irritations, like my sound not always working when I returned from sleep. I decided to update to the most recent build @bavariancake put out a week or two ago with the new version of clover. It was a pain in the d**k to get it working with the new version of clover, I think i initially used the 5018 build, but anyway, here's my EFI folder, if you want to try it and a screenshot of my /l/e.
