thank but it is 2.2.0!

Really this kext is not included in the monthly update. Yes, 2.2.0 is the official release and 2.3.0 the beta which I thought was going to be released with OC 0.8.7.

@oldman20 You can either compile and build locally using Xcode or simply grab the binaries from the Actions tab of the respective repo (will require a GitHub account for the latter). Link to latest Artifacts here

 

EDIT: Or directly from Dortania as @antuneddu has shared above.

Can't be, master branch is currently at 2.3.0. If you are attempting to compile and build using Xcode, then open up Terminal and run below commands:

 

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/IntelBluetoothFirmware.git
cd IntelBluetoothFirmware
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/acidanthera/MacKernelSDK.git
xcodebuild -target Package build
open ./build/Release

Or you can simply grab the binaries from Dortania repo: https://github.com/dortania/build-repo/releases/tag/IntelBluetoothFirmware-693f2dc
