For those who own an Atheros AR9485 Bluetooth 4.0 AR3012 AR3011 or rebuilt an IO80211Family.kext with modified playlist working tested on catalina 10.15.4 to be installed on S / L / E I am attaching the kext
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.
