The only version that works for me is 3.0. I tried 3.0.5 and 3.1 and neither works for me. I have an Asus BCM94352 combo running on El Capitan 10.11.5. By not working I meant I can't connect to my bluetooth mouse. If I fall back to 3.0, it works. But as I said, 3.0.5 and 3.1 do not work even though the kext seems to be loaded successfully. Do you have some suggestion how I can debug this ? jkl555

I move up to 10.11.2 from 10.10.5. Version 3.0.5 doesn't work for me but Version 3 does. For 3.0.5, it complains I am running Yosemite but I am not. Downgrade to 3.0 works fine for me.

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 don't quite remember which version of FakeSMC I am using either. Anyway, I try the DSDT patch for Dell XPS 18 even though it is not the same model (https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch/tree/master/battery) and revert the AppleACPIPlatform.kext from patel's one from the Official guide for E6410 nVidia back to stock version and it seems to fix the problem.

I bought a new aftermarket battery. It seems now the battery indicator can't detect it. Dual boot to Windows 7 doesn't have the same problem as always. Anyone knows how I can fix it ? Thanks.

Some updates since my last post. I have two hackintoshes. One Dell e6410 and one PC with Asus Z97i-Plus motherboard. The Asus Z97i-Plus comes with a BCM94352 wifi/BT combo card. Initially I had a bit of problem with the BCM94352 combo card and I eventually buy a USB BT-400 instead. The past two weeks I did some hardware changes. I took out the BCM94352 card from the Asus Z97i-Plus motherboard and swap it with the wifi card of the Dell e6410. The Dell e6410 with the BCM94352 wifi/BT combo card is working very well. No hit and miss so far. Airport and Handoff are working. The only problem is I can't connect it with my logitech v270 bluetooth mouse. EDIT. Forgot to mention I dual boot e6410. The logitech mouse can connect to Windows 7 without any problem. The Z97i-Plus with BT-400 is a hit and miss. If it miss, I can see some 'bluetooth transport not found' message during boot but it is too fast that I can capture it. But if unplug and plug the BT-400, everything is fine. I can connect the logitech v270 bluetooth mouse above to it (so I don't know what's wrong with BCM94352. Maybe it doesn't like that particular mouse). Airport and Handoff are also working. Will look into the Z97i-Plus a bit more to see if I didn't set it up correctly.

This card is supported by Yosemite. You have 2 choices to make it work Change the SMBIOS to MacBookAir5,2 which is the easiest and you do not have to do anything further. If you do not want to change SMBIOS, you have to patch AirPortBrcm4360.kext. Do a binary patch using some hex tool. Look for the text "Mac-2E6FAB96566FE58C" without the quote and replace it by your board id (ioreg -l | grep "board-id" | awk -F\" '{print $4}'). Rebuild the cache and then reboot. If you use clover, you can use clover to patch without touching the binary. I had this card on my Dell. I took it out and replace it by a BCM94352 WIFI/BT combo card. This card is now installed on my Asus Z97i-Plus running Yosemite 10.10.2. Hope this helps.

Hi. I tried to PM but probably your mailbox is full or something. I will reply it here. I move up to 2.8 and the result is still the same to me. It is a still a hit and miss. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. If I unplug the BT-400 and plug it back in and it will work. I saved the information that OP requested in https://www.dropbox.com/sh/r3n0hvpb7mkgb1a/AABBhmc7gwj4ZQ-VcjeGfk3-a?dl=0 One folder is the information before I unplug the USB and it is not detected. One folder is the after I unplug and plug the BT-400 back in. Thanks for your help and let me know if you need anything else. jkl555

Hi. The problem I have is the kext works intermittently. I have an Asus Z97i-Plus motherboard which comes with the BCM94352HMB. The first few times the kext works and I can pair the BT with my Logistics mouse and a PS3 dual shock controller. Then comes a few times the system comes up and I can see the messages that the kext is uploading a firmware, etc, but no BT module is found strangely from the menu bar. I also run into the case the boot hangs at the BIOS. Finally I have to turn off the Bluetooth from the BIOS to get around the hang. I leave the bluetooth manager off in the BIOS and buy an Asus BT-400 USB module. Same problem (works sometimes and sometimes doesn't) but there is no hang at the BIOS anymore. Finally I figure out if un-plug the USB module and plug it back in right away, the BT then starts to work. Any clue what I did wrong ? I am using clover but I am not injecting the kext but simply install it in the S/L/E. Thanks.
