Hey, I got the bluetooth showing but it is unable to find any devices nor is visible in other devices. Wifi works flawlessly
 
Same here. Its like BT is not initialised.
 
Hei,

I got this to work under Mojave 14.6 (BT initialised, even after multiple boots so far! )

What I did was I used the VM method but my own way - I installed VirtualBox, downloaded and created an lubuntu VM inside it. Booted up and assigned the USB bluetooth controller to it, then removed it and added it again and removed it. (few seconds apart)

suddenly the wifi and bluetooth card disconnected in my mac, and re-connected. And Bluetooth started working on my mac, and is now initialised for good. :) (at least so-far)

I have and Zotac ID90 barebone + Dell DW1703 (Atheros AR5B225 AR9485 WLAN card with BT4.0). My current Kext folder attached. Hope this helps anyone in the future.
