do you have bluetooth important part for me

I think not
but i don't really understand how to use post #1
if you can help me I will try to use it

BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter
Vendor ID = 14E4
Device ID = 43B1


Bluetooth
Product ID = 0x200b
Vendor ID = 0x04ca

 

[mosser]

i think you just need to do this

BCM94352 BT4 (10.10 and newer, 10.9 and newer)

1. Releases · robvanoostenrijk/BrcmPatchRAM · GitHub, credit the-darkvoid
   1. BrcmPatchRAM - Upload firmware into Broadcom Bluetooth USB devices
2. BrcmPatchRAM.kext Installation
   1. Chimera/Chameleon - System/Library/Extensions/
      1. use kext installer
   2. Clover - EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.10/ (and/or 10.9)

and just install the kext in 10.10 on the efi partition

not sure if you need more but from the github the lite on card is mentioned

BrcmPatchRAM - Upload firmware into Broadcom Bluetooth USB devices

I have problems with these steps:
https://github.com/robvanoostenrijk/BrcmPatchRAM

I have found the BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.hex

Copy the firmware hex file matching your device from the Windows package, in this case "

BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.hex"

The firmware file can now optionally be compressed using the included zlib.pl script:
zlib.pl deflate BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.hex > BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.zhx

After this a hex dump can be created for pasting into a plist editor:
xxd -ps BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.zhx > BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.dmp

Using a plist editor create a new firmware key under the BcmFirmwareStore/Firmwares dictionary.
Note that the version number displayed in OS X is the last number in the file name (1493 in our sample) + 4096.
So in this case the firmware version in OS X would be: "c14 v5589".

After configuring a key under BcmFirmwareStore/Firmwares, add your device ID as a new device for BrcmPatchRAM.
Configure the earlier firmware using its unique firmware key.

Open the BrcmNonApple.kext Info.plist and configured your device for both AppleUSBMergeNub as well as BroadcomBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport.
To do this make a copy of an existing device and modify the device vendor id, product id and USB description as required.

How do I use zlib.pl

"zlib.pl deflate BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.hex > BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.zhx

gives me the error:
-bash: zlib.pl: command not found

And I do not know what to do with the .dmp file

"Using a plist editor create a new firmware key under the BcmFirmwareStore/Firmwares dictionary."

ahh https://github.com/robvanoostenrijk/BrcmPatchRAM if you download the whole repo it contains the pearl script zlib.pl

might help

I have the file
but it gives me the above error in the terminal
how do I use it?

 

[mosser]

./zlib.pl BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.hex > BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.zhx

should do it

 

[Masi51952]

./zlib.pl BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.hex > BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1493.zhx

should do it

-bash: ./zlib.pl: Permission denied

wierd mine worked fine although i dont have the card yet so can't try it out

dont know if they work but the zhx and dmp are in the zip file

your files are empty
both show 0 Byte

but that is not the problem
its only optional to compress it to zhx
I have the .dmp file
what do I have to do it in order that the firmware file gets onto the USB
