Don't forget to add the clover patch for handoff if you need it.

EDIT: I am hoping you only installed either the injector kext; or data + RAM2; or repo + RAM2. If you "installed" everything in that zip file then you need to remove all but one of the combination just mentioned.

Scroll down to the instructions at the bottom and it explains what does what, and includes the information on enabling handoff.

i only use the repo+RAM2 and activate continuity & handoff with the Tool you mentioned.

One Last question: is Filevault Possible on Hackintoshes? Because there is no real NVRAM or so from where the decryption can get its hashes i think.

i forget with injector you mean the USBinjector.kext ?

I do not use Filevault so I cannot answer that question. NVRAM, however, can be emulated via Clover's install options. In fact, if you update Clover, you can choose the option to install the RC scripts that handle NVRAM along with the emulation driver.

As for the injector question, no I was referring to the bluetooth injector kext in that zip file (basically repeated the information from Rehabman's repository for PatchRAM).

the only kexts that are not working are the BRCMxxx.kexts. There is nothing under Bluetooth in Sysinformation. Only the Adapter can found under USB.

Read post #5. There is no direct support for your device in the current BrcmPatchRAM kexts, but it can be added.

Marked solved.
 
Just installing BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext into L/E helped me get an Insignia USB Bluetooth Adapter working. I verified the vendor id and product id were in the plist before using. After reboot, bluetooth was available and could then connect Apple mouse and keyboard.

BTW, this was on latest Beta of Mojave.

Thanks.
