Firmware

Firmwares can be obtained from the Windows driver package, a recent of which can be found here:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/BLU...shtml#download
i guess you did use this im on a limited line atm so can't download the file

I have downloaded it but this is only how to get the right hex file
but have it already
now I need to do these steps

I have found the Firmware dictionary but how to I past the information
it is decimal i believe but in "BcmFirmwareStore/Firmwares" all are hexadecimal i believe

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.

I have tried to understand this guide. I don't quite understand the process required to get my 43b1 - BCM94352 HMB/AzureWave AW-CE123H, 2.4/5 GHz, ac+abgn, 2 stream, 867 Mbs + BT4LE card working.

I have installed the kext that was provided in this section of the guide:
I have Bluetooth enabled. Broadcom USB is showing.

NO WIFI.

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)

3.Working
1.Asus BCM94352 (0b05/17cf)
2.Azurewave CE-123H (13d3/3404)


In this guide it also says that this requires injection for WIFI/Airport.

Can someone simply explain the process for injection. Do I need to create a DSDT to modify? Can I modify the Broadcom kext?

2.Supported Device_IDs (injection required)
1.43b1 - BCM94352 HMB/AzureWave AW-CE123H, 2.4/5 GHz, ac+abgn, 2 stream, 867 Mbs + BT4LE
2.4357 - BCM943225 HMB/AzureWave AW-NB290H, 2.4 GHz, bgn, 2 stream, 108 Mbs + BT3

That is a pretty long string

i found a typo when running ./zlib.pl

so the files should contain stuff now

do you just need to paste the dmp file in to the Firmware store now ?

thanks :D
but copy paste does not work
how do I past them?

EDIT:
I had to use <.....> and it worked
 
i believe you just past the raw data from the dmp file and since if you open the plist in text edit format look that same

if you paste and the line dont look the other ones it is probably not right

I could past it

NEXT: where should I add my device ID for BrcmPatchRAM
 
BrcmPatchRAM.kext/Contents/PlugIns/BrcmNonApple.kext/Contents/info.plist

i think but textedit is not the best to view the file in
 
Bluetooth
Product ID = 0x200b
Vendor ID = 0x04ca

Your bluetooth is already configured in the Info.plist.
Is the device firmware not properly upgrading and you are trying to configure a device specific firmware?

I do not know
How do I see if it is properly upgrading or not?

but bluetooth is shown
I can find my iPhone on my Notebook
but when I search for it on my iPhone I can not find my Notebook
If I try to connect them it fails
Airdrop does not work either

This is my BrcmNonApple.kext Info.plist
