[Azurewave AW-CE123H] Usual Clover DSDT FixAirport_4000 and AddDTGP_0001 + WIFI FakeID doesn't work anymore on 10.12.1

[bpresles]

While it was perfectly working on 10.12, the usual Clover FakeID injection as described in "Airport Injection Methods/Enable WiFi" method 5. of https://github.com/toleda/wireless_half-mini/blob/master/README.md file, doesn't work anymore on 10.12.1 at least with Azurewave AW-CE123H (DeviceID: 43b1).

To fix that, I use Info.plist patch, but not by editing it directly, and use Clover Kext patch feature instead, that allows dynamic Info.plist patching (see pull request #9).

This offers multiple advantages compared to usual FakeID/Clover's DSDT Fixes:

• Avoid direct edition of Kext (so should be update proof)
• Avoid DSDT patching
• Use real DeviceID instead of inject a fake one

Please tell me, how to use this patch in Clover.

[lesvink]

The same please, how install this patch ? Thanks for your work

config-bcm94352-120.plist/10.12-BCM94352-5GHz-US-FCC-dv works in 10.12 and 10.12.1, nothing changed. See README/Problem Reporting.

Other patches are not supported with this thread.

Yes the existing patch work with 10.12.1 (it applies correctly and is still required), I never said the contrary. But on 10.12.1, 10.12-BCM94352-5GHz-US-FCC-dv is not enough to have the WiFi card detected by the OS and working and you need to add 3 additional patches (included in the config-bcm94352-121.plist I put in the pull rrequest).

If you just use the config-bcm94352-120.plist as is on 10.12.1, than WiFi doesn't work. Period.

I tried adding all of the config patches and I still can't get this to work. I have an Azurewave BCM94352HMB. Had it working on 10.12. I have my config.plist file attached if anyone can help me out. Thanks in advance.

There is a typo in your config.plist, you typed "AirPortCrcm4360" for the Name value of "10.12.1-BCM94352 Patch #2", while it's normally AirPortBrcm4360. Because of that the patch is not applied.

Fix the typo, and it should work (I've the same exact card as you, and it works for me).

but it's necessary kext or only 3 patches?

[toleda]

@bpresles: If you just use the config-bcm94352-120.plist as is on 10.12.1, than WiFi doesn't work. Period.

To be clear, 10.12 patch works in 10.12.1 with 4352. Without Problem Reporting files, impossible to determine what is not correct on your system.

i used in 10.12 rehabman's kext, but in 10.12.1 with 3 patches not works for me, Do i have to use toleda's kext?

[bpresles]

@johnnynuca14
On 10.12.1 you need 4 patches (maybe not all the 4 but I didn't investigate fully on that part yet to see if all the patches are useful), the 10.2 patch (which was already in config-bcm94352-120.plist) and the additional 3 other patches included in the config-bcm94352-121.plist file attached, in the config.plist file of your Clover bootloader.

The rehabman kext is for Bluetooth firmware (if you are talking about BrcmPatchRAM), not for WiFi. And can be used additionally.

As you can see this issue affect multiple users, so I don't think there is anything wrong with my system, just that the updated AirportBrcm4360 requires additional patches for the Azurewave BCM94352HMB WiFi card to be correctly and fully detected on 10.12.1.

Maybe it's only Azurewave BCM94352HMB owners, I don't know, but the fact is that for us if you only apply the 10.12 patch included in config-bcm94352-120.plist alone (without the 3 other patch I provided on my config-bcm94352-121.plist file), it doesn't work in 10.12.1 (but work perfectly in 10.12) and the OS display a message "No hardware present" when you click the Airport menu bar icon.

So at least for Azurewave BCM94352HMB owners, the 10.12-BCM94352-5GHz-US-FCC-dv is not enough to make the card detected by the OS.

If I apply the 3 additional patches here, then it's working perfectly again, with correct and full detection. Which demonstrate that at least one of these patches are required (maybe even all 3 of them) in addition to the existing "10.12-BCM94352-5GHz-US-FCC-dv".

I'll provide you more data (i'm not sure I'll be able to give you all what you listed on the "Problem report" section of your README, I'll try) later as soon as I can.
I'll also investigate more the issue to see if a or a set of patch(es) in particular is/are fixing the issue among the 3 I added (taken from a hackintosh forum).

I have GA-H97N-WIFI, when i updated to 10.12 i removed all patches and used this
http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312759-fix-macos-sierra-dp1-bcm94532z-wifi/
everything is working fine and after the update to 10.12, if it helps..

@bpresles, I have 2 Azurewave BCM94352HMB, both working after 10.12.1; no edits required. The patch is only to enable 5 GHz and is not the problem. Likely, did not properly install a README/Airport Injection Methods/Enable WiFi method (device_id injection).
