Internal BT maybe functional?

[Lansmac]

On my Gigabyte H97n-wifi, I just got all usbports functional with the help of moderators
One of my usb ports turned out to be a internal usb port (HS01) for Bluetooth.

The question is: can I make this functional?
Attached are screenshots PCIe from Hackintool and Bt in hardwaresystem Apple.

If Yes, what settings and kexts do I need in Opencore?

[HOW TO] Wi-Fi 6 Intel AX210 on macOS Sonoma

Note: Thanks @Edhawk for your help. Preface macOS Sonoma removed drivers for Broadcom Wi-Fi cards found in Mac models prior to 2017. One of the affected cards is the Fenvi T-919, widely used in Hacks. OCLP developers published a fix that allows these Wi-Fi to work in Sonoma, adding this...

On Monterey and newer you have to install 3 extensions:

• IntelBTPatcher.kext (available in OpenIntelWireless), requires Lilu 1.6.2 >> fixes a bug in bluetoothd by correctly initializing the bluetooth module
• IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext (available on OpenIntelWireless), at least version 2.2.0 >> load the firmware to the device and set the device name in USB Host Controller to Bluetooth USB Host Controller
• BlueToolFixup.kext (available in Acidanthera's BrcmPatchRAM package) >> on macOS Monterey IntelBluetoothInjector.kext stopped working due to changes made by Apple to the Bluetooth stack.

I think I got it working Cosmix! Thanks for making it so easy! Unfortunately I can’t find the antennas anymore. Might have thrown them away, since I thought (for 8 years) that the wifi/bluetooth module couldn’t function. So, it is hard to test properly, but I can switch wifi and bluetooth on…I will look for a new sma antenna for the module…

Well done ...
It is nice to have well-defined USB map, Bluetooth and WiFi ....

I think you can check Google for something like this "generic wifi antenna".
=============================

Check the manual of your motherboard and find if there are any requirements.

So, to answer to your thread's question :

Internal BT maybe functional?​

YES !
