but with
Code:
touch /System/Library/Extensions

I got PERMISSION DENIED

Don't forget about BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext.

The touch of /S/L/E requires sudo.

Best (and Apple recommended) way to rebuild cache:
Code:
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

You can also use a kext installer (I always use Terminal...)

After the touch command I receive

Code:
kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67062 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA0A for kext FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext
kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67062 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA0A for kext FakePCIID.kext

And after a minute, when I try to restart...

It means you installed it with incorrect permissions (perhaps a copy with Finder at some point). Once you get the permissions wrong, they are not corrected by a later 'sudo cp -R'...

Remove it and re-install:
Code:
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext

Then use sudo cp -R to copy it, rebuild cache, etc.

Add the patch for IOBluetoothFamily to your config.plist. Use a plist editor and copy/paste.
