Sometimes screen do not wakeup after first lid open

@stonevil @ksymmonds this is fixed for the early 2019 model by applying the RTEC patch I posted here: #19 (comment)

The problem is that RTEC can't be executed correctly and thus the laptop doesn't fully wake from sleep. Not sure why closing and opening the lid fixed it, but it could be because RTEC is only executed when the laptop wakes from proper sleep mode (white power led) and not when to lid is quickly closed and opened (green led).

I will add to readme. Thanks!

Confirmed, however in my case it's all the time (not sometimes). Like you say, quick fix is just to shut the lid, pause a second, then re-open.

Yesterday updated BIOS up to version 1.05. Issue with open/wake lid not solved magically.
Need to find time to research issue.

Sometimes screen do not wake up after first lid open from sleep. You need to close and open lid again. This issue introduced after latest BIOS update.

Strange. Usually happens ones per 6-7 lid open.

Not sure if it helps, but some observations of my RBA 2109 (early) with RTX 2080. We know that shutting the lid and re-opening solves this issue, however, the trigger for the screen coming on is not the second open, but the close after system wake. Not sure if this helps with the diagnosis of the issue, but thought I'd share.

Also, if in sleep state and I plug in an external monitor, power, etc and open lid, the system wakes normally. The external monitor is HDMI via the USB-C socket. Again, not sure if this helps in the diagnosis, but thought I'd share my experiences.

So two data points to add. I have the exact same model as stonevil and am having the exact same black screen on lid open issue. Mine only does it after the laptop has been closed for a while. Possibly an issue with deep hardware sleep?

I also have a Razer Blade Stealth 13 that I hackintoshed which has this exact same issue. Interestingly enough I can still login, and activate Siri using command space and get it to speak. The operating system seems to be loading but the display isn't outputting anything from my understanding.

Hi @jt1900jt

On the Stealth, does the trick of shutting the lid and then re-opening it work?

[jt1900jt]

@ksymmonds It actually does'nt. The backlight comes on but nothing else. Which makes me think the issues are different
