Hi All,

I am hoping someone can help me as Ive read and tried everything, well as much as I can understand.

I swapped out the intel card for a BCM94532Z and managed to get WIFI working and BT, however I can't get it to Hand Off. Ive tried a number of guides and also the latest beta of the Continuity Activation Tool with no luck.

I attached some screen shots, iMessage, iCloud etc works and although I don't really care about Hand Off, it still bugs me that its not working!

Cheers,

Wireless Interface en1 is wrong.
try to clear cache, /rebuild)
Which settings you are using at clover?
 
Hi, I tried a few different guides, in the end I had success with one that involved applying the kext patches from 'config-bcm94352-121.plist'. Since my original post I noticed I had a duplicate patch, since removing one, the Mac and iPhone now both give an alert that there is a handoff available in safari (see attached) but it won't load - simply opens a new tab and does nothing. Cheers

I never got it to work right using the iMac17,1 system definition. Since switching to iMac14,2 system definition, it has worked perfectly. I had to create new serial number and UUID though.
 
Thanks, i suspected the iMac17,1 may be the issue, was hoping to get around that as changing may cause me more grief as everything else is running perfectly!
 
config-bcm94352-121.plist
Invalid solution, remove. Clover/config.plist/FixAirport_4000 broke in 10.12.1

Edit:
WiFi injection is not working, see
[Guide] Airport - PCIe Half Mini v2/Post #1
Step 1/Enable WiFi
Airport/WiFi Injection Methods


Clover/FixAirport_4000: uses an invalid dsdt edit, 10.12.1/AppleACPIlatformExpert.kext/KP; remove.

I have a similar problem, almost the same to be honest... I've opened a new thread just because I don't wanted to mess up this one. For me it's the exact same situation, the Mac see the phone, when it start to open webpage of everything is freezing and nothing happen, same with the emails. The Apple Watch Unlock is activated but not working, and the phone can't take off things from the Mac... No idea where is the issue
 
Hi Toledo, I deleted all the patches to do with Airport and BCM and added only from the 120.plist - Wifi doesn't function at all now, I had to add the '10.12.1-BCM94352 Add Patch #2' to get back up and running to where I was at before? I'm assuming thats what you mean't! Sorry for being a pain!
