Anyone multi-booting Windows 10 figure out how to get the drivers for the Broadcom 94360cd installed? I was able to get everything installed almost short of the 'Bluetooth USB Host Controller' with device id of 05ac-828d. The Applebluetooth driver installer package doesnt install but I still can get the wifi working and even my Magic Trackpad works somehow. Thought of modding the Apple Bluetooth drivers to include that device id but not sure.

 

Thanks

 

Edit: Nevermind. Found drivers after googling 94360cd drivers.

Good Afternoon All, Toleda especially.

 

So I'm currently running a 10.12 GM machine, trying to replace my current Atheros ar9285 in my Dell Inspiron 5537 with a new-to-me BCM94352HMB 2.5/5.0/BT4.0LTE.

 

I've been going over the GitHub for the past few days now trying multiple methods, but none of which have worked. I was considering starting fresh from 0 and seeing if I couldn't re-patch my SSDT/DSDT using the repo + Mac iASL but I can't tell if that's the best route to go. I used to use Fake PCIID + corresponding Atheros Kext but your [Toleda] GitHub says that route doesnt work for the 94352 in 10.12

 

So long story short is, which route would you say would be the best, should I not be thinking about doing updates on this specific machine....?

OK that's what I was fearing. I don't quite get what I've been reading:

 

ssdt enabler, see ssdt_enabler folder (repo)

  1. 94352, see ssdt_arpt folder (repo)
    1. Verify IOReg/RP0x (wifi device name)

 

OK so airport_SSDT_enabler has in it: 

* airport_ssdt-ami6-bcm43xx_v1.zip

and

* airport_ssdt-ami7&8-bcm43xx_v1.zip

 

If I choose airport_ssdt-ami7&8-bcm43xx_v1.zip

 

It contains: [guide] - obvious, and [ssdt-2.aml]

 

now do I need to add the contents of SSDT-2.aml to my /EFI/Clover/Patched ? Just copypasta it... the guide talks about location and Audio....

 

 

To verify IOREg/RP0X , do I need to boot into the machine with the non-working WiFi module

 

Do I use ioJones to find out he RP0X and then find that version, Rename the file in the folder to SSDT-04 and copy into my EFI/Clover/Patched ? 

 

It's a little.... confusing....

Here are all the files I could collect

 

The Original SSDTs in patched come from this giude, for my laptop: http://forum.osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/6721-dell-inspiron-3x375x377x37-clover-install-guide/

 

I have an Intel HD440 so I use the two FakePCIID kexts....

 

If I remove FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics.kext - I lose the use of my screen at full resolution

 

Any pointers?

Any pointers?

No need to mess with anything other than WiFi

It is clear no WiFi card is installed, not helpful.

If FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext installed, remove

The RP04 ssdt is not attached, is it installed?

A screenshot of IOReg is useless, File/Save a Copy.. and attach.

config.plist missing, Clover boot log missing, etc.  Attach all requested files.

Wifi card was installed at the time.

 

SSDT 04 was installed as well. Give me a moment and I'll get clover boot and config.plist uploaded

 

Edit: working on the boot log now, jsut so you know when it loots it says can't start airport with the bcm model on it...

What do you mean no WiFi installed... the ssdt from the _04 folder was included... is there a kext I'm missing?

 

 

Current setup at boot includes the new wifi module installed in the laptop, as shown by the second screenshot in the dcpimanager.

I also removed both FakePCIID Kexts, rebuilt cached and rebooted.

 

current folder structure is included in .zip

 

updated .ioreg included in the .zip

From reading the instructions in the thread, it's unclear which patches are actually needed.  I have a BCM94352z, which previously worked fine in Yosemite, but now I can't get it working in Sierra.  In config-bcm94352-120.plist, there are 7 patches.  Which ones do I need?

The ssdt is not working, remove.

Use Post #1, 94352 Info.plist patch.

Reply with new files.

Which ones do I need?

Post #1/Credit links provide developer, link, patch details

Item:

0: 10.12 5 GHz, yes for 10.12

1: 10.11 5 GHz, yes for 10.11

2: Airport Extreme, cosmetic - replaces 3rd Party Wireless label

3: Handoff, yes

4: 4352 info.plist edit, 1 of 5 methods to enable wifi, see Post #1

5: Country Code/non US default, removes wake from sleep bandwidth limit

6: imac14,3 whitelist

7. macbookpro5,2 whitelist

@Toleda, I got it working! [but not with Kext patching!]

 

I actually reinstalled a new [original] copy of IO0211Family.kext - I even left in both FakePCIID kexts for my graphics.

 

What really did it [with your SSDT patch, after the Vanilla IO80211.kext reinstall] was a config.plist patch for KextsToPatch

 

I used it from here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312759-fix-macos-sierra-dp1-bcm94532z-wifi/

 

and the patch was: 

<dict>
	<key>Comment</key>
	<string>AirPortBrcm4360 - fcvo</string>
	<key>Disabled</key>
	<false/>
	<key>Find</key>
	<data>gflSqgAAdSk=</data>
	<key>Name</key>
	<string>AirPortBrcm4360</string>
	<key>Replace</key>
	<data>gflSqgAAZpA=</data>
</dict>

after adding that, my boot time increased and I was able to load the BCM43xx kext, allowing my system to see the new WiFi module.

 

Now to get Bluetooth working!

 

Edit: It's all working now! jumped from a 32 Mbps down speed to 132 Mbps.

How do you patch the config.plist every time I do it I always get a compiling error. The instructions on where to place the patched plist is not very clear or the method on how to patch it is not very clear.
