[Solved] How to change AirportBrcmFixup default country code?

[LockDown]

Hi

I want to change AirportBrcmFixup default country code to "JP" and compile it. (I want to get rid of brcmfx-country=JPboot arguement.)

 

Looking at the source:

 

char country_code[4] {"US"};

bool country_code_overrided {false};

 

1. do i just change US to JP?

2. should i also change false to true?

3. Will it also be the same procedure if changing US to a more universal #a?

 

Solved: Changing US to my preferred code worked

Why do you want to change the country code?

There's an option: brcmfx-country=XX

Nevermind, just understood what you're trying to do.

I prefer to use a driver rather than modding it.

1. If you want to get rid of boot-arg brcmfx-country=JP you can inject data field "brcmfx-country" into ARPT provider using Clover features: Arbitrary or DeviceProperties
2. If you still need to change a code, change country_code in kern_config.hpp and unconditionally set country_code_overrided to true (PE_parse_boot_argn should not be called for bootargBrcmCountry)
3. Yes, procedure is the same
