Install steps
I used the guide in this thread but this are the exact steps I took.
Step 1 = kext enabler, see FakePCIID
(10.12 working, use 2016-1115 or newer) used KextWizard to install
- All supported WiFi cards (including 94352)
- README: RehabMan/OS-X-Fake-PCI-ID
- Download: RehabMan / OS-X-Fake-PCI-ID
- Install (2016-1115 or newer):
- FakePCIID.kext
- FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext (includes 94352)
ROW/WiFi Country Code (10.12/10.11/10.10 - all versions) Only copied the patch from plist since I am in the US
- Country Code/Required

Step 2 =

- REAMDME/RehabMan Fork Downloads (both kexts included, Release)
- BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext
- BrcmPatchRAM2.kext
- Installation (1 or 2, not both)
- Clover/Chameleon - use kext installer

Injected device id 0x43b1 into Clover Configurator > devices
Shut down and then installed card, issue stated above occurs.
Additional steps and information
Even if I boot into safe mode, this is where it hangs up. Even booting without injected kexts produces the same results. Sorry about the rotation, the forum is autorotating the pictures for some reason. the zip file includes unrotated pictures.

If I plug in the mini pci card after the Mac has booted, I do see Bluetooth and wifi but can’t connect to either.
I’ve done multiple runs with the guide (even though everything wasn’t 100% clear to me) and am at a loss. Could definitely use the help. Attached requested information in a zip file (Diaglog.zip)
Thanks for all of your help, the last thing I need to knock out before I can say i'm 100% done with this.
