kkskks2 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Hi all,I used Mavericks 10.9.1 on Chameleon for a long time. At that time, I was not able to use Wi-Fi because I cannot find a compatible kext for the Wi-Fi card in my laptop. So, I just used an USB Wi-Fi card. Recently, I bought BCM94352HMB card, and as you may know I could easily find a kext for BCM94352 card. However, after changing the Wi-Fi card, my system is going to be frozen randomly. (Specifically, during watching streaming videos) I cannot move the mouse point, and what I can do is just press power button to reset the system. At that time, I thought that it was just a problem of Mavericks. So, I installed Yosemite 10.10.4 by using Chameleon. But, the problem was still there.After googling, I realized that many people solved the freezing issue by using Clover rather than Chameleon. So, I also tried. But, even Clover was not able to solve my issue.Now, I am almost 90 percentage convinced that the BCM94352 causes my issue, because when I turn off the BCM94352's Wi-Fi in the system preferences and use the USB Wi-Fi card, there is no issue. So, I think that the kext for BCM94352 or BCM94352 itself crashes my system to be frozen.I know that some people who were suffered from USB 3.0 freezing problem, solved their issue by deleting GenericUSBXHCI.kext and rebuild cache by using Kext Utility. But, in my case, I cannot connect Wi-Fi if I delete the kext for BCM94352.For your information, I installed the kexts for BCM94352 by using Vietnam tool. It installed FakePCIID.kext, FakePCIID_BCM94352Z_as_BCM94360CS2.kext, and BrcmPatchRAM.kext in S/L/E. I also moved these kexts under EFI/Clover/kexts/10.10 rather than S/L/E, but the freezing problem is still there.Please help me if you have any idea. Thank you in advance.My system: Laptop i5-3327u, 8gb ram, HD4000, 128gb Samsung SSD, BCM94352HMB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one system with BCM4352 and this issue doesn't happen to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not good at programming, so I just patched some common things and errors though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
