Here is another patch for SMBIOS whitelist for 4360bgn.

Comment: AirPortBrcm4360 whitelist patch (board-id), credit RehabMan
Name: AirPortBrcm4360
Find: <31db4c3b 65d87512>
Replace: <31dbffc3 90909090>

Instead of patching the SMBIOS strings in the whitelist to match the SMBIOS in use, this patch just disables the SMBIOS whitelist patch completely. It needs no customization for the SMBIOS in use.

Applicability: at least 10.11.3, 10.11.4. Not tested with others.

My bluetooth is connecting and then a second later disconnecting from my iPhone. I have installed BrcmFirmwareRepo and BrcmPatchRAM2 kernel extensions in /S/L/E and I have patched my DSDT for a handoff. the WIFI is working as designed. It is a combo WIFI/ Bluetooth pci14e4,43b1/ 0x489, 0xe07a Running EC 10.11.2. Can somebody advise what is going on?

It is normal (same on my Apple MacBookAir6,2). The iPhone is not expected to be paired.

Hi, a little problem here:

1. bought BCM 94360AC card, no luck with either WiFi or Bluetooth on OSX - wifi icon stays blank, won't even turn on (once in a while it turns itself on and off continuously, settings in system preferences unresponsive) bluetooth - same thing - unable to turn on. Under windows: works perfectly with bootcamp drivers (both wi fi and bluetooth)
card details:
I suppose the country code of the card might be to blame (Locale:FCC,Country Code:X0) while the router is PL (Europe)

I thought about messing with plist & kexts myself, but decided to ask you guys first how to go about doing this before I mess things up beyond repair...



Relevant card details:

DPCI MANAGER:
14E4, 43A0, 106B, 0136, Broadcom Corporation, BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter

SYS info:
Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x136)
Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (7.21.94.136.1a1)
Locale: FCC
Country Code: X0
AirDrop: Supported
Status: Off

2.
10.11.3
H97N-WiFi (F8) as mac pro 3,1
Xeon E3 1231v3
Nvidia GTX950

3.
Followed Hector Build - no issues expect for wifi

4,5 - attachments


I would be grateful for any hints/comments, thanks
