IIRC some laptops worked better with Hibernationmode set to 25 or 29. Trying these settings might help.

Sorry for me but I can't make it work....

you champion, yes i think hibernationmode 25 has worked, i am so happy now, yeet.

That would be really helpful if you could post it here. I am going to try and get sleep watcher working but would be good to have another plan as this bluetooth bug is super annoying!

Actually, it's quite simple and straightforward.

1. Download Eventscripts from App Store.
2. Download my wakeup-bluetoothfix.scpt (attached), open, and replace "xxx" with your own username and sudo password.
3. Get this scpt into Eventscripts

this seems to be a fairly expensive app ($8.49 CAD for me) but if people cant get it working with sleepwatcher sounds like the best option

 

[VinylNerd]

sleepwatcher takes about 17-18 seconds to activate, so if the eventscripts app method would allow mouse control quicker that would be great, is anyone else able to time how long it takes for sleepwatcher to work for them? does sleep 5 mean it waits 5 seconds? could this be reduced?

sleepwatcher works fine. Didn't have an issue. I would try to reinstall following the manual. It's a very simple UNIX daemon.

Another thing you can try is to run the /etc/rc.wake command manually from terminal. See if there are any errors.

I added the sleep 5 command. You can change that to any number.

It has nothing to do with SIP.

Moreover, have you try upgrading to Monterey 12.1? Because I have disabled sleepwatcher and it seems the bluetooth issues are fixed. I no longer need sleepwatcher and bluetooth is working fine now.

(I did more testing) sleepwatcher still needed.

great info, yes i am on 12.1, ive never used anything else, i came straight from big sur to 12.1

great that your card is working as it should, this is likely because its BCM943602CS which was the card used in 2015 macbook pros (12,1 11,4 11,5) wheras the BCM94360CS (also a 3 antenna card) was used in the 2013 and 2014 Macbook pro models (11,1 11,2 11,3)

the difference between a BCM943602CS and BCM94360CS is that the BCM943602CS has bluetooth 4.1/4.2 (bluetooth 4.1 with bluetooth 4.2 spec features, in accordance with bluetooth 4.2 standard) whereas the BCM94360CS only has 4.0 i believe, however it might report 4.1 in some situations

ive done extensive testing with both these cards, the BCM94360CS works with HID proxy mode, and the BCM943602CS does not, what this means is that the cards behave almost the same in real world usage but the BCM943602CS will never be able to provide a connection from a bluetooth keyboard to opencore bootloader or the BIOS page (i am open to being proven wrong), with HID proxy on the BCM94360CS this is possible.

the BCM94360CS2 exhibits the same functionality of the BCM94360CS with a 2 antenna configuration compared to 3. this was the card used in 2013-2014 macbook airs

hopefully this explains why your issues went away, and why they probably will remain for some (BCM94360CS and BCM94360CS2 are not used in macbook which support Monterey)

as for what you mentioned about following the steps from the sleepwatcher devleoper, they are simply worded in a way which is not really comprehend able for someone with no experience doing these things.

as for the sleep 5 command can i remove the 5 and have no number? or do i need a 0 or 1?

Yes，not cheap.
It respond almost simultaneously when the machine wakeup.
In addition, it can do many other things. Like auto remount net drive. It's a very versatile software.
I have utilized this app for a long time.
This bluetooth fix tend to be a minor bonus

 

[Yomiro]

You can delete that line altogether. It's something I added, because it takes a few seconds for my computer to wake up.
