<< Solved >> No Bluetooth with BCM94352Z

[fivos1996]

Hi. I installed Cata on an external HDD for testing and even though I have installed the latest versions of BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext and I can see them starting in verbose boot, BT just doesn't work ("not available"). Can somebody provide some help?

Thanks in advance...

You will need BluetoothInjector.kext from the repo BrcmPatchRam. Acidanthera has forked a repo and they're fixing issues with Catalina so you might want to check it out here https://github.com/acidanthera/BrcmPatchRAM

Thank you for your help! e12350's suggestion fixed my problem.

Feartech,

With BrcmPatchRAM3.kext, will I still need BroadcomBTInjector.kext?

I have solved most problems with BrcmPatchRAM3, but now my bluetooth logitech mouse does not work for me, catalina can only detect it, but not connect. Any solution?

Thank you.

Did you add BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext?

Did you add BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext?

Yes, I have it in the kexts clover folder.
It shows me the bluetooth mouse, but it can´t connect when i try.
Before, in mojave, yes.

When I experimented with Brcm kexts, I found out that if only BroadcomBTInjector.kext is loaded, then Bluetooth sees other devices, but cannot connect to them. And if all three kexts are loaded, then everything works.
Are you loading BroadcomBTInjector.kext BrcmFirmwareData.kext and BrcmPatchRAM3.kext via clover folder?
