I'm trying to install a BCM94352Z using RehabMan's repos (https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-brcmpatchram/downloads/).

After selecting the following in kext wizard and then rebuilding permission and cache, I get this when checking `sudo kextcache -i /`

Kexts injected via kext wizard:
  • BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext
  • BrcmPatchRAM2.kext
  • FakePCIID.kext
  • FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext

Error in command line - `sudo kextcache -i /`:

kext file:///System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDADisabler.kext/ is in hash exception list, allowing to load
/Library/Extensions/BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext is not authentic; omitting from prelinked kernel.
Can't use BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext - not linked.
Prelink failed for com.no-one.BrcmPatchRAM2; omitting from prelinked kernel.

Seems likely you do not have SIP disabled properly.

So I've now confirmed.. `csrutil status`

System Integrity Protection status: disabled.​

And tried re-installing, and repairing permissions, etc.

Still getting the following when running.. `sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel`

kext file:///System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDADisabler.kext/ is in hash exception list, allowing to load
/Library/Extensions/BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext is not authentic; omitting from prelinked kernel.

Thanks in advance. Note my install is on a desktop. Swapped out original wifi card for this one, which I bought on ebay.

patchmatic zip file, cover zip file, and ioreg attached.

It seems to me BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext is not installed correctly.
And you shouldn't have both BrcmFirmwareData.kext and BrcmFirmareRepo.kext anyway (they are mutually exclusive).
Suggest you remove all BrcmPatchRAM components and re-install.

Thanks - must have been a noob mistake. I had something in the wrong /Extensions folder and/or in the EFI/CLOVER version instead of SYSTEM

Now, WiFI works beautifully, but not Bluetooth.

I have a similar setup to https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/update-sierra-on-the-skylake-h170n-wifi.202847/ and will try adding those 3 dicts to the config.plist

If you have any other suggestions, would greatly appreciate it.

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

At this point, wifi works quite well at 5ghz even. Bluetooth icon appears, but is not usable. System information shows "no information found".

1. zip files of patchmatic folder and clover/efi, as well as ioreg attached

2. Keystat greps

13 1 0xffffff7f8353c000 0x60000 0x60000 com.apple.driver.AppleACPIPlatform (5.0) 65E05472-6AE7-3308-8CC8-FA6CB0DB2AEE <12 11 7 6 5 4 3 1>​

3. sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /
