Hi! I managed to install macOS Big Sur on my Asus Zenbook 13 UX333 weeks ago, and since then I have fixed a lot of problems that prevented me from having a great experience with my hack (sound, keyboard backlight, sleep, etc). However, one thing that I can't seem to fix with my hackintosh is battery.
In terms of battery life, very light browsing can only get me about 5.5 hours at most from 100%->0%. A 2.5 hour reduction compared to windows (8 hours at most with the same conditions). Now, that is with CPUFriend AND Voltageshift (-105mv CPU and CPU cache; -90mv iGPU; turbo disabled) both running. Before that was much worse because then I could only go as far as 3 hours with very light browsing.
Well, I gotta admit that I initially DID use a prebuilt EFI for my hack (the one for UX331), and the person who made it said it may not charge the laptop all the way to 100%. BUT, just 3 days ago I actually changed the contents of my EFI to an updated one from OC 0.6.5 to 0.7.2, made by myself with the help of other UX333-specific audio and keyboard backlight patches I found on the internet in hopes of solving the battery issue. Unfortunately it did not fix those battery issues and I'm still stuck to only 83% charging.
Now, if the issue surrounding the battery is only the 83% charging issue, I wouldn't have mind it, really, since I can just turn my laptop off and it charges to 100% doing that anyway. But the fact that my battery life is also quite a problem, I suspect that the 83% charging problem is connected to my battery life issue. Any help? What do you guys think? Thank you all!
