Hello all,
I have a AR9002WB-1NG wifi combo card(AR9285 + AR3011 (bluetooth))

From lsusb for BT

Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0cf3:3005 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR3011 Bluetooth


I got the wifi working just with a plist edit:

<key>IONameMatch</key>
<array>
<string>pci168c,2a</string>
<string>pci168c,2b</string>
</array>


for the bluetooth instead I'm confused… I've seen around two methods for this: Atheros Firmware Uploader or IOath3kfrmwr.kext

The first one (FW uploader) gives me a i5:ath3k-firmware-uploader tom$ ./ath3k-firmware-uploader
Atheros AR3011 not found error.

The second one is a bit cryptic.. I've added the device id in the plist converting it into decimal value.. but I don't get any kind of output in the Console or anywhere else.. is there a log somewhere to understand if this has been loaded or errors etc..?

This my edit for my device(ID 0cf3:3005):

<key>idProduct</key>
<integer>12293</integer>
<key>idVendor</key>
<integer>3315</integer>


PS Is there another method for BT? Suggestions? I'm running 10.8.2



Thanks

I spent many hours for that work. At first I dump the audio codec (ALC269) in linux and than patch the AppleHDA and DSDT by using information from that codec dump with the help of this guide. I forgot to say that DSDT at my previous post also includes wi-fi patch.

I also have same screen gitches like you. It is not too bad and so often, so I will deal with it later.

I just started to work on ssdt not working for now

Too bad the hardware in these laptops dont support actual fan control.  My Laptop tends to run hot when idle just due to the place it sits.  I would love to kick up the fan speed.

Fix your SSDT and patch the intelcpupower...kext. Should make a difference.

Hi guys, I have an Asus N53SN
i7-2630QM, nVidia 550M - 1366x768 res, etc...
I've followed this guide and my computer will refuse to boot into Mac normally, it will boot up thru safemode (-x) but graphics is not fully enabled, along with a whole bunch of other stuff not working.
When I have it boot thru the ###### USB, it will result in a white screen.
When I use verbose boot (-v) it will get stuck on: IOBluetoothHCIController::setConfigState........ and the screen turns grey and I can't read the text anymore...
Please instruct me. Thanks!

I am running a custom ssdt, and the BIOS is patched.  Its more of a function of where my computer sits, and I would like the fans to come on earlier.

Sounds like the nVidia Kexts are trying to load.  You might try deleting them from /S/L/E and see how that goes.

I did delete the nVidia Kexts off of S/L/E as instructed by the guide

What other extra kexts did you install?  Do you have the /Extra folder setup?  Did you delete any other kexts?

[yalun94]

I did not add any extra kexts.
I did install the Intel Graphics kexts via Kext Utility
and what do u mean by the /Extras folder setup? do u mean on the flash drive? if so, then yes I do.
I did not copy anything into the /Extras on the HDD

Inorder for the computer to boot without the USB, you will have to have /Extra on the HDD setup so chameleon reads the DSDT, and smbios.plist.  This may be the cause of your issues.

[yalun94]

i dont need it to boot without USB, I am ok with booting off of USB
but the problem is, it won't even let me boot normally using the USB bootloader....

[eng_matt]

@yalun94 ok. I uploaded for you and other users;

1- My Bootable Usb Extra
2- My Mac Osx installed harddisk Extra
3- 10.8.2 All Extensions

Use my files and rechange with yours. Kexts and Extra files. OK.

Here the Download links (Asus-Extensions-Extra-10.8.2) ;

Hi I loaded the USB Extras onto my USB drive and it resulted in a kernal panic, normal boot resulted in a do not sign.
verbose boot showed that it was stuck on this:

and it just gets stuck here.....
any ideas? thanks for all of those helping.
