I recently installed the AW-CE123H (which uses Broadcom BCM4352 and BCM20702) in my Gigabyte hackintosh and decided to look into the what seems to be the definitive thread for it - http://www.tonymacx86.com/network/104850-guide-airport-pcie-half-mini-v2.html. While it was difficult for me to follow all the instructions as they applied to my card, to the extent that they didn't conflict with the PDF's and docs over at https://github.com/toleda/wireless_half-mini/ , here's what i did:
- Reading the thread, unzipped and ran wireless_bcm94352-100-v3.0a.command from the github repository
- This command modified (and backed up) my IO80211Family.kext and IoBluetoothFamily.kext
- Rebooted and noticed no results
- Unzipped and read [Guide]_airport_half-mini_details.pdf from the repository.
- On its recommendation, used Kext Wizard to install toledaARPT.kext
- Upon reboot, the Wifi adapter began working, but Bluetooth was nowhere to be found
- Now, and this is, at the latest, definitely where I went wrong, I decided to go into the "Deprecated Files" directory and install bcm4352bt.kext with Kext Wizard.
- Upon reboot, Bluetooth appeared and seemed properly configured. Unfortunately, it would not connect to any of the devices it detected.
At this point, I'm not entirely sure what it was that made even the WiFi work, and am considering reverting the IO80211Family and IOBluetoothFamily kexts, just to be safe. Has anyone had any experience with getting the Bluetooth connecting to devices (no fancy Continuity stuff or anything even)?
Thanks ameno86 & RehabMan, I have an Azure AW-CE123H miniPCI device and it stopped working with macOS High Sierra. I used the links you provided which led me to download the RehabMan-FakePCIID-2018-0421.zip file kexts and I installed FakePCIID.kext and then FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext and Wifi worked. Then I found the RehabMan-BrcmPatchRAM-2016-0705.zip file kexts and got the BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext and BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and installed using "Kext Utility v2.6.4" and Rebooted and Bluetooth worked. Many thanks for your post.
