macostrial099 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 My E6440 has wifi working upon installation using my EFI, when I search for bluetooth and airdrop, my device is visible. For airdrop: when I select my device and try to send anything from iPhone via airdrop, it shows "waiting..." but never send anything. For bluetooth: I connected my device to my iPhone, but I can't send or receive anything! I searched on this forum and I found this link: I installed separately and restarted: AirportItlwm_v2.0.0_stable_BigSur.kext.zip and itlwm_v2.0.0_stable.kext.zip But still I have the same problem. I have Big Sur installed My device: E6440 i5 4310M Modem: Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 I attached the EFI, but to be able to upload it I removed AirportItlwm and itlwm because the file is too big, also I removed the resources.

Administrators Hervé Posted August 25, 2021 Administrators Share Posted August 25, 2021 https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/10117-half-size-pci-wifibluetooth-card-for-airdrop1st basic rule re: Hackintoshing: get to know your hardware as they wrote at Dortania! E6440 takes full and 1/2 mini PCIe cards. It's not really a matter of picking a card compatible with the E6440 (there is no whitelisting so any mini PCIe cards can be fitted), it's a matter of picking the card compatible with the target version of macOS. There too, look this up in our FAQ and in our Tech Info/R&D->Wireless sections. Just browse and search a little really... Plenty of existing (old) threads on this very matter in E6xxx and Archive sections too. Eg: https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/10117-half-size-pci-wifibluetooth-card-for-airdrop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
