Cursor freezes and skips every 1 second, but only when battery status DSDT patch is applied - Razer Blade Stealth 13.3 Kaby Lake Mojave

Note: I'm new to Hackintosh (this is my first attempt) and I'm still learning.

Specs:

  • core i7 7500u 2.9 GHz

  • Intel HD graphics 620

  • 16gb 1866 MHz LPDDR3

  • 500gb 970 evo NVMe SSD

  • Dell DW1560 BCM94352Z 802.11ac + BT 4.0 m.2 2230 wifi card

  • 13.3 3200*1800 touch display

  • 2 USB 3.1 gen1 type A ports

  • 1 USB 3.1 gen 2 thunderbolt 3 type C port

  • 1 HDMI 2.0 port

  • 1 headphone/microphone combo jack

  • Running Mojave 10.14.1

What works:

  • Shutdown

  • Restart

  • Power management seems to work,

  • HD 620 graphics (occasionally flickers at 3200*1800 though)

  • Wifi

  • Bluetooth

  • Battery status

  • Trackpad except 2 finger click, 5 finger gestures, laggy & unusable with battery status DSDT patch applied

  • Audio incl. port switching

  • USB ports

  • HDMI out incl. audio

  • Microphones

  • Screen brightness

  • Keyboard brightness (no software pop up though)

  • Continuity

  • Handoff

  • Airdrop

  • iMessage/iCloud/App Store/Find my Mac

What doesn't work

  • Thunderbolt (haven't tested but it doesn't show up in system report)

  • Sleep

  • Trackpad 2 finger click (2 finger tap works), 5 finger gestures cause KP

I began with this guide: https://github.com/stevensaid/Razer-Blade-Stealth-Hackintosh-Guide

Everything worked except it would kernel panic while booting into macOS, I determined this was caused by the prepached DSDT from the guide.

Once I got to the point where I needed to patch my own DSDT, I applied these hotpatches:

https://github.com/alexandred/VoodooI2C-Patches/blob/master/Windows/Windows_10.txt

Which to my amazement, actually got my trackpad working (including multi-touch) and my battery status working. After a few reboots however I started having the described issue, the reboot after which it began was one which I needed to do in the process of fixing iMessage, so I'm not sure what triggered it. I discovered through trial and error would only happen if the battery status patch was applied. When I had a DSDT with only the W10 os check patch applied in my /ACPI/patched folder the trackpad would work well just like it did before the issue started, except now obviously the battery status wasn't working.

Here is a link to some relevant files for troubleshooting: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1q9kx0wQZasQ1--C0FjNS_VPYR5DL2HH7?usp=sharing
