mr buffy Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Hi All,I purchased a BCM943602CS Wi-Fi Bluetooth card off amazon.co.uk. I have Wi-Fi working but Bluetooth is not.If I scan for devices, none are seen. I connected a Magic Mouse 2 via USB to setup. The OS says setup was successful, but after the USB cable is disconnected, I can't connect to the mouse from the Bluetooth menu. How can I confirm it is using Bluetooth on the PCI card? These were the same issues as using Bluetooth on the ASUS Maximus VIII Formula motherboard, which is why I purchased the card.The machine is dual boot, both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work fine in Windows 8.1 Pro with the magic mouse 2 successfully setup.Does anyone have any trouble shooting tips?Cheers, Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr buffy Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 check folder u need only it CLOVER.zip dont use kexts in s/l/e, etc, use Clover folder in UEFI mode Check, if dont work back here I tried using the attached Clover folder, but the machine reboots due to a kernal panic. A video of the boot in verbose mode is uploaded in the box.com folder noted above. I am running 10.11.6, I notice all the kexts are in 10.12 folder, I tried renaming this to 10.11, makes no difference. Can you clarify what you mean 'use Clover folder in UEFI mode'. I machine is UEFI based. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr buffy Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 It booted after replacing the DSDT however, it still has the original problem: The mouse pairs via USB, but does not work. Can't see any other BT devices. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr buffy Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 just put kexts reboot try it I tried this as well as using the Kext Utility to add them to the Extensions folder. Both times the same result. Thanks for all your suggestions thus far, any other ideas? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizznfizz Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I am having same issue on my setup. @MaLd0n will your process above work for other Broadcom cards? Using a slightly different card BROADCOM BCM94352Z. Is there somewhere that I can read up on why it is better to put .kext files in the /others folder instead of /library/extensions like some guides say? I know that Morgonaut has said on her beginners guide that it is better to keep everything Apple Only in the /library/extensions folder but seems like many do not necessarily agree.
