hfs3 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 My rebranded broadcomm wireless card worked up until 10.7.2, but after updating to 10.7.4 it's a no go. This was a clean install on my test HD, and while the system profiler sees the ariport, in system preferences/Network it can't be turned on. Deleting the Wi-fi and rebooting didn't work... Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! I have replaced the AppleACPIPlatform.kext to get 10.7.4 to boot up, but no matter what I try the wireless can't be turned on. Perhaps I need to reinstall and be sure to turn the wireless off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterC Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I'm curious if you ran myfix as per the 10.7.4 thread? My card a Broadcom 4311 seemed to work well after the update, until I ran myfix. PeterC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Syonagar Posted May 25, 2012 Administrators Share Posted May 25, 2012 Dear PeterC, Download the latest EDP 3 from the EDP forum and try it on your new 10.7.4 system. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfs3 Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Download the latest EDP 3 from the EDP forum and try it on your new 10.7.4 system. Cheers! Syonagar, Figuring something was corrupted in my install, I started over from 10.7 on my test drive. Updated to 10.7.4 and replaced the AppleACPIPlatform.kext, then ran myFix. System is booting on EDP 2.2; all is working, including wireless. Regarding EDP 3.0, I encountered the same issue as others with the install script, so had to manually install it - which was successful. I noticed the directory structure is different from previous versions of EDP; now edptool is located in Extra/trunk/. The problem is that when I execute edptool it exits when I try to set up model specific kexts, saying that myHack cannot be found on my system - despite the fact that myHack is installed, as are myHack utilities. Any thoughts? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Bronxteck Posted May 29, 2012 Administrators Share Posted May 29, 2012 only thing i could think of is if you are saying that my hack is installed properly then edp is not in the correct place and it's looking at a different root point. my 2 cents but ask leon.

Administrators Syonagar Posted May 29, 2012 Administrators Share Posted May 29, 2012 Dear hfs, You need to run myhack and install myhack utilities to your os x system. After that, try EDP 3 again. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
