How to fix BLE devices

[AuroraWright]

I just made my BLE MS Designer mouse work on both Windows and macOS. Steps are as follows:

• Pair on macOS first, and then on Windows.
• Export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BTHPORT\Parameters\Keys\{bluetooth adapter MAC}\{BLE device MAC} to a reg file and reboot into macOS.
• Disable Bluetooth.
• Modify /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist replacing all instances of the previous MAC address of the BLE device with the new one, and also modify /private/var/root/Library/Preferences/blued.plist (up to Sierra) or /private/var/root/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist (High Sierra onwards) as follows: -- Expand SMPDistributionKeys, and expand again the dictionary named after the bluetooth adapter MAC, you'll find one sub-dictionary for each BLE device, named after their MACs. Replace the MAC of the device you're dealing with with the new one, and expand that dictionary. -- LTK, RAND, IRK, address and EDIV need to be changed. They're respectively LTK, ERand, IRK, Address and EDIV from the reg file, nothing needs to be endian swapped except for the EDIV (as an example, "EDIV"=dword:000080b4 in the reg file means the macOS EDIV is b480) and the Address (as an example, "Address"=hex(b):46,78,f9,ba,1a,db,00,00 in the reg file means the macOS Address is db1abaf9 7846).
• Save the files and reboot, re-enable Bluetooth.

Hi. Hope anyone can help me. Im pairing my combo ( keyboard and mouse ) device on monterey and win 11. This is Bluetooth LE device Here is my device. Its rii i4 : http://www.riitek.com/product/i4.html I found some problem i can pair magic mouse of both, but can not connect i4 on mac os. When my friend connect his airpod on my mac os, then i can connect my i4, when he disconnect his airpod, i still can connect and use my i4. And when i remove his airpod profile, i will lose connect of i4. I though this problem like my i4 need something from airpod profile, then i4 can connect and use

about pair my i4 with monterey and win 11. I tried get information from xml source of keychain access ( ediv, ltk, rand, irk ). Then edit registry on windows with that information. It did not work

Tried use hackintool 3.8.7 for get bluetooth reg. And i can see this reg file make 2 new keys on registry (cc088d04f4b6 and dca4cad9aea4). But that key not correct with MAC address. Test it and it did not work too

help help help … sos sos

my i4 mac address : 72000012373e

lilce083 @lilce083 it seems i4 has 2.4G usb dongle，since you are running a real mac. why not try 2.4G usb dongle.

Pair is complete. Just do it step by step with tutorial from china and hackintool 3.8.7

1. Connect to windows
2. Connect to monterey
3. Disconnect from monterey ( keep profile on bluetooth pres ). This step make me can export bluetooth reg file from hackintool with my ble device ( rii i4). If i dont disconnect, i cant export reg file have my device
4. Generate reg file by hackintool
5. Import to windows
6. Restart and bingo Tks all

I am unable to see any Keys under

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BTHPORT\Parameters\Keys

I ran PsExec -i RegEdit (had to create a shortcut since I have to run it as Admni) and I still see no keys. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

In my Intel AC9560, I (re)installed bluetooth drivers after I didn't see any entries in the registry. Afterwards, I merged the keys and it has worked ever since.

Thanks, I just tried that. I removed the Intel Bluetooth driver, rebooted.. still nothing. When you say 'merged the keys".. is there another step I need to do to see them?

Just the default key.

I use BUFFALO BSMBB09DS to test the success steps as follows

1. WIN 10 pairing is completed and confirmed to be available
2. macOS Monterey re-pairing confirmation can be used
3. BUFFALO BSMBB09DS power off
4. Use Hackintool to export the Bluetooth configuration file name Bluetooth.reg
5. Reboot to enter WIN 10
6. Modify Bluetooth.reg
7. Change "AddressType"=dword:00000001 to "AddressType"=dword:00000000
8. Save the new file Bluetooth_FIX.reg
9. Use PSTools PsExec.exe to import BluetoothFix.reg 10 Reboot and test OK

Hackintool does nothing for my devices, and I cannot access the guide mentioned here.

Still looking for BLE support between macOS and Windows.
