Lenovo X230 BCM943224HMS not working

[jabools]

Hello!
I can't get Broadcom BCM943224HMS wifi working on High Sierra. I have BIOS whitelist removed, card is working under Windows.
Firstly, I created a bootable USB with clover config from https://github.com/xxx10101xxx/ThinkPad-X230-macOS repo. Installation succeed and I can boot to Mac OS X with no troubles. The only thing I noticed is not working, the wifi.
Followed instructions in this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/broadcom-wifi-bluetooth-guide.242423/#post-1664577 with no success. Tried this and different methods (after fresh install for every try) and still no success. I got bluetooth working (it connected with my iPhone).

Also after booting from EFI on disk, buttons on touchpad, trackpad and buttons under trackpad stopped working. I have only LMB and touchpad for moving cursor. It doesn't matter if I boot from USB now, it's also not working.

How to get wifi and touchpad buttons working?

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance!

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/
Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

Of course, sorry for missing this

Just performed clean install to make sure there are no "bloat" kexts and configs.
Here is my clover + gen_debug

ioreg missing from PR files...

FakePCIID + FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext not installed.
In fact, all kexts not installed correctly.
See FAQ:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/

FixAirport not recommended. Remove from config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Fixes or set false.

KextsToPatch entries for "AirPortBrcm4360" will not work with current Clover. Must be "com.apple.driver.AirPort.Brcm4360"

And read here for correct Airport whitelist patch:

Okay, installed FakePCIID + Broadcom_Wifi kexts and enabled darkvoid (?) patch in config.plist. Still no result, but will post it in few minutes.
If it comes to Airport whitelist, you mean "New patch for SMBIOS whitelist AirportBrcm4360 abgn WiFi" ?

Thanks a lot! Just got wifi working. Now I face one problem, sometimes VoodooPS2Controller is working, sometimes not.
Here is debug.

Hello, how did you remove the whitelist? I also have an X230, but the BIOS can not flash.

Your kextcache output proves kexts are not installed correctly.
All kexts you need must be installed to the system volume.
Read post #2 of the Clover guide for details:

Note: Further discussion of PS2 is off-topic in this thread. This thread clearly titled such that it applies only to WiFi.
