Support for BCM94352Z 10.2.1 Fresh Install

[rishik44]

Hello @toleda If you could please help me out, I am not able to get Wifi working on 10.12.1, this is a fresh installation on new hardware (GA-Z170N), I managed to get bluetooth somehow, might be through the patches in config-bcm94352-120 (although i have disabled them now and still bluetooth is on) but Wifi still shows no hardware detected. I am unable to see BCM94352 in IOReg explorer but can see it in DPCI manager. I also have FakePCIID as well as FakePCIID_Broadcom_Wireless, BrcmPatchRAM2 and BrcmFirmwareRepo installed as these were suggested by members in a forum for el capitan install. I have the BCM94352Z model. I've attached my config.plist, Ioregistryexplorer, and boot.config file. Let me know if I need to attach anything else.

FakePCIID stopped working in 10.12.1 Remove FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext. Install https://github.com/toleda/wireless_half-mini/blob/master/ssdt_arpt/ssdt_arpt-rp06-bcm4352.zip Reply with new files and MaciASL/File/Export Tableset ...

@toleda Do I remove all patches for brcm4360 from plist?

[toleda]

Not mentioned, no. This is an injection problem, no change to kext.

[rishik44]

@toleda Thank you so much! That did ssdt did the trick, both Wifi and bluetooth function perfectly! And i have handoff/compatibility and hotspot support! Another question, how to tell if we have 2.4/5Ghz compatibility?

[toleda]

System Information/Hardware/WiFi/Supported Channels (US/FCC): 2.4 GHz: 1-13 5 GHz: => 36+

@toleda I just had to reinstall sierra due to graphics card problem(rx 480) and now I installed the brcmpatchram2 and firmware repo Kexts and placed SSDT-4.aml in patched and now it wifi doesn't work.... I'm not sure what changed

[rishik44]

@toleda Attached are the updated files for the reinstall of Sierra including the MaciASL table set. rishik44 new files.zip

[toleda]

config.plist is a mess, remove all wifi patches. See README, add only required patches.

[rishik44]

ok will do so

[rishik44]

@toleda that did the trick for wifi, I am getting wifi back to working as before. But, bluetooth isn't functioning, i have noticed that the BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext aren't loading. I have tried deleting them and reinstalling them, and then fixing permissions after. Any fix for this? Thanks

[toleda]

Where did you install the kexts and with what?

[rishik44]

i installed them into system/library/extensions

[rishik44]

Using Kextwizard

[toleda]

No experience the Keztwizard, I use Kext Utility for Sierra.

[rishik44]

Ok i will delete them and reinstall using kext utility

[rishik44]

Ok reinstalled them, still shows Bluetooth not available.

[rishik44]

Once more i will try deleting them, then restarting, then installing one, then restarting, then installing the other.

[rishik44]

Tried again, but no fix. I am also seeing that the previously loaded kext BroadcomBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport is not being loaded anymore, i think this is the kext that allows the others to load.

[rishik44]

I might have to reinstall sierra once again if nothing else can be done

[rishik44]

@toleda I finally did it! After my reinstall, got graphics card to load, got bluetooth and wifi! Everything is functional, I lost bluetooth for a second due to a patch in the config.plist, the one to enable handoff and hot spot, I just disabled it, and bluetooth works again, and i still have handoff and hotspot. Thanks again!

[rishik44]

@toleda does sleep function normal on the rx 480?

[toleda]

No idea, off topic.

[rishik44]

@ toleda after trying to run multi beast again for ALC 1150 I lost my WiFi. I tried reinstalling Brcm4360 and deleting and replacing SSDT-4.aml. Attached is my config.plist, this same plist worked right before I installed Multibeast audio drivers.
