Awesome,... good thinking, Drcrack. Thank you, it installs OK and System Profiler gives the correct info. However, after successful pairing with my phone the connection drops quickly (2-3 seconds). I can't make the connection plug'n'play either.
Can you try the same under Windows? It may actually upload different firmware (mine taken from Linux).
Myself I have short mouse freezes (1-3 sec) when working with Magic Mouse, but I think it's the same under Windows... Need to test more to be sure.
For those experiencing any problems, please test your connection under Windows first, then do warm reboot into Mac OS and see whether it works any better than with a cold starting in Mac OS. If Windows has uploaded the firmware first, my uploader will just not detect the device and won't do anything, so you can test with whatever firmware uploaded by Windows drivers.
You can check with Applications/Utilities/Console whether firmware was uploaded: it will display under local.ath3k-firmware-uploader either "Uploading firmware...[]...done!" (exit code will be non-zero and it's normal) or "Atheros 3011 not found", in the latter case it means the device was already claimed by Mac OS and is in normal working state.
Are there instructions to completely remove this install? I'd like to try again.
There's really no point in reinstalling, if it works, it works; there's really nothing that can go "slightly" wrong. However, if you want to remove, do this:
Run Terminal, and type (carefully, you will be working with admin rights):
Code:
sudo rm -rf /Extra/ath3k-firmware-uploader/
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/local.ath3k-firmware-uploader.plist
sudo rm /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/local.ath3k-firmware-uploader.plist
