Bluetooth Firmware Uploader

[Bronxteck]

according to the first post   VID: 0a5c  PID: 22be (4352/4360) is supported in version 2.8

No luck for me. I'm running the asus BCM4352 (asus rampage iv black mobo) and I installed 2.8.5 using kext drop. I confirmed it installed to system/library/extension and tried deleting and reinstalling, repairing disk permissions, and even double checked my vid and pid ids from windows are in the info.plist files in both locations

 

I used the 5ghz wifi script and 5ghz wifi is working great but if I look at Bluetooth in system report it says "no information found". I confirmed Bluetooth is enabled in bios.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

I just upgrade to 10.10.5 on a Dell e6410 and I am using Broadcom BCM94352HMB (which is pulled from a Asus Z97i motherboard). I have no problem with the WIFI and the BT. I also use Clover to boot and I set up my e6410 as MacBook Air 5.2

 

I basically follow https://github.com/toleda/wireless_half-minito enable the 5G and the handoff, and I use the BT firmware uploader here to enable the BT. Here are the pasted output from system report.

I used the link on here to get 5ghz wifi working but nothing on Bluetooth. I never installed any other type of Bluetooth kext or injector. I just installed using kext drop and reboot but nothing. I tried all of the Kexts on here, deleting and rebooting before I try another.

Hello my problem is similar like this. And I have errors in syslog:

18.08.15 14:33:57,000 kernel[0]: BTFirmwareUploader :: Broadcom WiFi/BT combo Bluetooth controller found

Has anyone managed to get it working on El Capitan? (AR5B195 Combo)

Wifi works fine, as usual, but Bluetooth (AR3011) does not.

I have heard of a few changes Apple is making on USB/Bluetooth controllers, so it must be probably something about it.

Anyone have any ideas? I tried to send the logs requested via pm but it wouldn't let me saying they can't receive any new messages. I posted the error message but my post was deleted. I don't understand why it's not working for me yet the WiFi is working great.

Ok so I plugged in a spare usb Bluetooth dongle I had and it works with the vanilla Yosemite 10.10.5 bluetooth. I then loaded the 2.8.5 kext from here using kext drop and rebooted but my bcm43xx Bluetooth won't work even though wifi does. Anyone? Any ideas? Even what logs to look at? Another solution I could try? Anything?

[Bronxteck]

is that the original card to your laptop? some laptops do not have the usb pins needed on the pci-e slot for BT to function and some need a pin taped to work because it sends a signal to turn off the BT if connected in a normal manner.

Thanks for the job,

 

Il installed the 2.8.5 version of the downloader fot my AR5B195 mini PCI card. Wifi works just fine but I have issues for BT : I have the icon on the top bar, I can see the computer in the BT connection pan of My MBAir but I can't pair it, it fails, also on the BT connection pan of the computer with the AR5B195 (Hackintosh based on X79s-up5 wifi MB) I don't see any BT devices... If I try to connect my android smartphone, I can see the Hackintosh in the list and I can't pair it. I did the things suggested like removing com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and removed BT PAN from network prefpane interface list. No success.

 

Also I tried 

sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x0F\x85\x07\x01|\x0F\x84\x07\x01|g' /System/Library/Extensions/IOBluetoothFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport.kext/Contents/MacOS/IOBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport

And it returned :

Can't open /System/Library/Extensions/IOBluetoothFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport.kext/Contents/MacOS/IOBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport: No such file or directory.

Any idea ?

 

Thanks !
