Airdrop & iMessege

[roisol144]

so i have mange to install os x sierra 10.12.4 on my computer, everything works great but i still want to fix iMessage and also i bought bluetooth dongle the i bought one from the buyer's guide it is the GMYLE Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter. I can enable bluetooth from setting and my iphone recognize the hackintosh but still i cant pair it and in my opinion this is the reason why Airdrop is not working. also iMessage not working either. Please if someone knows what to do, it'll be great !
Thanks .

I think the clue is in the name but you can enable Airdrop over Ethernet :

defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1

I think that just enables two computers with Ethernet to 'Airdrop' to each other.

i see.. So help me out what dongle should i buy ? i mean i already have one for bluetooth that i purchased and it worked out of the box because i chose it from the buyer's guide, can you give me a wifi dongle that will work out of the box just like the bluetooth or maybe one that i just need to install kexts. I just don't want to start and open my pc and to deal with parts dongle is simple for me and thats what i want

Nope.
I don't use Wifi dongles so cannot recommend any - They are known to be problematic.
You will have to do your own research.
