Administrators Hervé Posted October 24, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 24, 2019 You need to get your USB ports sorted out. Use Hackintool app to that effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Jake Lo Posted October 24, 2019 Moderators Share Posted October 24, 2019 Launch Hackintool.app. Click on the USB tab on the top. On the bottom, click on the i (info) for instructions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Hervé Posted October 24, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 24, 2019 Bluetooth modules are USB-connected. If your BT device does not appear in SysInfo under the USB section, then you need to sort out your USB ports before anything else. Once you've done that, you'll have to look at/identify the chip your BT dongle is based on because that has an evident link to potential compatibility and support under macOS/Mojave...

s jaykumar Posted October 24, 2019 Author Share Posted October 24, 2019 it reads my bluetooth device as BCM20702AO but it doesnt work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted October 24, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 24, 2019 Ok, then it is now detected. What are the device's PCI ids ? You'll see them if you select the device in SysInfo->Hardware->USB. You may therefore proceed as to install Rehabman's Broadcom firmware patching kexts as detailed on his GitHub repo. My recommendation is to opt for caching Repo + PatchRAM2 from /L/E... Caching kexts from /L/E is explained in our FAQ section. https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-BrcmPatchRAM No guarantee you'll get Bluetooth 100% operational of course.
