BCM20702A0 USB Bluetooth adapter in OS X 10.14.4 Mojave

[Pyro1980]

Hi.
I'm new to the forum and the hackintosh scene. Recently successfully completed my first build thanks to all the great info on this site.

I'm having a few final glitches trying to get bluetooth to work using a USB bluetooth dongle from Simplecom. The chipset has been discussed previously in these threads, being the bcm20702a0 which others have been successful in getting to work, however after following all the instructions I can't seem to get the device to work on my setup. Would appreciate any guidance.

I'm using a Gigabyte H370n Wifi Mini ITX motherboard which has built in bluetooth and wifi.

Unfortunately no. Tried all The instructions I could find online. I’m thinking maybe it has something to do with the motherboard having an inbuilt Bluetooth card already.

The Intel CNVi can interfere with the operation of other WiFi/BT cards. On your Gigabyte motherboard, try coping the attached file to CLOVER/ACPI/patched folder in the EFI partition of your Mojave SSD, and reboot. Does it make any difference?

I own a BCM20702A0 dongle also, for me it works only after booting into Windows once. I guess the firmware is loaded under Windows, that is why it still there(works) after rebooting to macOS.

Did you get this working?
I tried the windows approach above too, didn't work.
