offficial_florin Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Hello. I successfully installed macOS and all WiFi and Bluetooth drivers. Bluetooth is working but the Settings tell me that I can't use Handoff / Instant Hotspot e.t.c... I used the brcm repo kext to install. So, how I activate Instant Hotspot and all the things ? I have this Wifi Card: DW1560 BCM94352Z I have this Wifi Chip: Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x19) Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (7.21.94.136.1a1) I have this bluetooth chip : Manufacturer: Broadcom Transport: USB Chipset: 20702A3 Firmware Version: v14 c5668 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicRofT Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Hi I have the same WiFi card installed in my E7450 so hopefully You will manage to get Handoff/Hotspot running comparing Your configuration to mine. I have followed a simple guide by Ross Fisher, however not step by step - I skipped some points, as everything works perfectly without them. I have installed the following kexts on my EFI partition (/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.11): FakePCIID FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi BrcmPatchRAM2 BrcmFirmwareData These should deal with proper WiFi module identification as Airport Extreme, which results in working 5GHz band without any additional patches and fakeID injections in Clover Configuration. Also Bluetooth module should be working visible in System Report, although without Handoff/Hotspot support yet. There are no custom or modified kexts files connected with WiFi/Bluetooth neither in /Library/Extensions nor in /System/Library/Extensions. Next thing is Clover KernelAndKextPatches configuration in config.plist file: <dict> <key>Comment</key> <string>10.11-BT4LE-Handoff-Hotspot-lisai9093</string> <key>Disabled</key> <false/> <key>Find</key> <data> SIX/dEdIiwc= </data> <key>Name</key> <string>IOBluetoothFamily</string> <key>Replace</key> <data> Qb4PAAAA60Q= </data> </dict> My system definition is MacBookPro12,1 and I have El Capitan 10.11.5 installed. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offficial_florin Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 Okay I used this and it seems to work: https://github.com/toleda/wireless_half-mini/blob/master/config-bcm94352-110.plist.zip But - I still can't use AirDrop or Instant Hotspot. But the settings say it work.: See the pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offficial_florin Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 FYI: I'm on macOS 10.11.3. Is that a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted July 23, 2016 Administrators Share Posted July 23, 2016 Sometimes logging into icloud helps with activating hotspot/airdrop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offficial_florin Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 Yes, and it helped. Calls worked. Instant hotspot for 2 seconds. After restart, nothing worked again. AirDrop never worked. I also noticed that the Wireless LED on the Laptop is only on when im open the bluetooth preferences on mac and searching for devices... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
