This part in the Dortania guide is confusing to me, can someone explain what I’m supposed to do in layman’s terms? (Kaby Lake laptop)
If you have access to macOS than you can download and open this tool https://github.com/acidanthera/MaciASL/releases. Right after you open this tool will show you your DSDT and than you can search for whatever the guide tells you to search for.

HP 250 G8 macOS Monterey 12.3 restarts at shutdown
Then I assumed that I need an editor that can open .aml/.dsl files and use it to find some text in the DSDT.aml, which then I have to paste into the FixShutdown-USB-SSDT.dsl. For this purpose I used MaciASL (which is also not mentioned in the instructions).

Lenovo T530. BigSur 11.6.4/OC 0.7.8
Can't emphasize enough for anyone new - take the time and get a basic understanding of how ACPI tables work. Tools used - OpenCore 0.7.8, ProperTree, ssdtprgen, iASL (MaciASL), SSDTTime, and Hackintool for exploring the Hardware and IOReg. i'm averaging 2:45 on battery; for reference - it's roughly 4 in Windows, and less than 2 in Kubuntu 22.04
- Success! Acer Aspire 5 A514-52G running macOS 12.2 "Monterey".
- Hackintoshing and need a solution? THE ANSWER IS HERE!

A little stuck. Got my hackintosh running 98% perfectly, but the battery indicator is wonky.
Note that do NOT use iasl or maciASL by Rehab (they are old and not updated) instead use the ones by acidanthera, iasl-stable, maciASL

What did I do wrong?
Open the config in ProperTree (https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree) and do a clean snapshot (CMD-SHIFT-R). This will put all of the kexts in the right order.

Open your config.plist using ProperTree.

Is there someone who can tell me what I need for my efi file
NO. Prebuilts are a bad way to start. They are not updated and aren't configured to your specific needs. Make your own EFI and also don't use OCAT, use ProperTree which can do OC specific things like OC (clean) snapshots.

reboot
You need to mount your EFI partition (find a tool online or use command line). In it you should find "EFI/OC/config.plist". Open the file with Propertree or another plist editor and make the changes.

If anything, keep .contentFlavour files removed and try updating your config.plist using ProperTree or some other plist editor which just makes it easier to read. Sorry I couldn't be of much help but its the best I've got right now haha.
