I can confirm that Apple bluetooth keyboard works great. I don't have a bluetooth mouse to test with unfortunately.

Looks like handoff works??, I fired up the notes app on my iPad and it appeared on my Hackintosh. Right before my eyes. More testing required.

Phone calls: when I was out on my back deck and got an incoming call there was a notice on the iPhone to route the call to my Hackintosh so I can get calls on my PC. Check that off the list.

Messages handoff seems working.

I also recently got rid of my Logitech wireless mouse with wireless usb dongle and switched to a wired Zowie ZA11 gaming mouse so that might have helped (2.4 GHz interference). And my WiFi is now permanently set on 5G. So I don't have any other 2.4GHz interference near my computer now. Nothing that can interfere with Bluetooth.

Have you already made an SSDT for the USB port limit? If not, your Fenvi bluetooth will probably work after that just fine.

Handoff working . . .

Here are my reasons why I don't care about using the Fenvi on-board USB bluetooth:

[1] I have to run a splitter on the USB motherboard header and if you've read the Amazon reviews on certain ones, people have FRIED their motherboard using splitters.

[2] I really don't want to run a wire OVER my graphics card (looks ugly)

[3] I like having a physical separation between the Bluetooth USB dongle in the front away from the WiFi antennas in the back.

[4] Range of Wifi is excellent, however my Fenvi Bluetooth range when I tried it was about 30 inches from the case, really bad. And I don't see the point in trying to run a cable to the card and then buy new antennas (as someone else suggested).

Its looking like handoff is working fine now with the Orico Bluetooth USB adapter.
