@RehabMan thanks for your advice but here is the problem that i do not have knowledge about firmware and creating injector kext . I really appreciate your help and contribution in the forum . I have attached Windows Bluetooth Drivers if they can help and if you can point me at proper guide as i have seen this guide: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-BrcmPatchRAM
but not getting a clue how to add an entry for this in the current version of brcmpatchram2.kext.Bluetooth Driver for Windows 7_8_10.zip

Check in Windows Device Manager (preferably in Win10) to see if a hex firmware files being used (look at driver details).
Attach .hex file.

Hello, @RehabMan , iu= have looked into device manager -> Bluetooth(Generic Bluetooth Device) -> properties -> Driver tab but not able to find any hex string or value. can you please let me know where should i look for it as i need proper workign bluetooth .
 
Once you install the driver on Windows, you can obtain the firmware hex file directly from the windows/system32 directory.
@RehabMan , I have checked but it looks like no bluetooth drivers are there these PID&VID . It shows generic bluetooth device always . also having one more query . right now I am using SMBIOS of 18,3 which is having native support for kaby lake 7700k. I need to know that whether It have native power management or not as I am quite worried as I have not patched any DSDT or SSDT right now in my patched folder . I have attached my EFI/Clover folder , please let me know if I have missed anything .CLOVER.zip

Also @RehabMan , i am getting low geekbench scores that are 5177 in single core and 15321 in multi core.
 
You must look at Driver Details (in Properties) to see the files which make up the driver.

Did you read here?

Hi. I followed thid quide in order to create custom injector which only loads firmware for my broadcom bluetooth.
Copied hex dump to clipboard
Code:
xxd -ps BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1469_v5565.zhx | pbcopy
Opened BrcmPatchRAM2
Removed odd entries and left only

Renamed and replaced firmwarekey with Firmware data

And it did not work. Is original the-darkvoid's method not working anymore?
