Enable GPU on shutdown bug #1727

Closed Sanaan01 closed 9 months ago

Sanaan01 commented 9 months ago

Hello, this feature has been working flawlessly on my asus strix g16 the bug of brightness controls not being present in standard mode is gone.

But a new issue is happening whenever i open my laptop from sleep the GPU is on which leads to high power consumption. I think ghelper gets mixed between sleep and shutdown?

@Sanaan01 hello, it doesn't mix sleep and shutdown :) but if you did hibernate, it's also shutdown.

Since you have ignored issue template and didn't include logs, I can't help much further.

I would recommend to just use Optimized GPU mode, then it will turn off dGPU on battery (even if it was turned off as a "workaround" before reboot/shutdown)

Sorry I didn't include the logs here is it. I am certain i didnt put it in hibernate. as I just closed the lid log.txt

The workaround you mentioned seems to be working fine though thanks for this. Btw i disabled modern standby on my laptop so it just uses the traditional old s3 sleep

@Sanaan01 hmm, well, your windows reports to the app that it's about to Suspend (which is Hibernate)

And on that moment app acts, in logs it looks like that : 

12/12/2023 2:58:30 PM: Power Mode Changed:Suspend
12/12/2023 2:58:30 PM: Forcing Standard Mode on shutdown / hibernation
12/12/2023 2:58:31 PM: GPUEco = 0 : OK

Do you by any chance have some setting in windows power plan, that tells to put into hibernate in sleep ? Even G-Helper lets you control that (under Extra).

May be try to reset your Balanced power plan in Control Panel to defaults ?
