Hi there, I know there are tons of posts around about Monterey and bluetooth issues. I've tried the already discussed 'quick fixes' but still no success. Hope anyone can help.
I just performed a clean install of 12.6.7 Monterey, with OpenCore Legacy Patcher 0.6.7. Already updated my airport/bluetooth card with a newer one, bluetooth chipset is BCM_4350C2. Everything runs smoothly except for the bluetooth. I got NULL direction and OFF status on system information for bluetooth adapter, and cannot activate the bluetooth on system preferences. Some weird behavior is that my Magic Mouse still works under these circumstances (despite gestures like scroll and zooming are not working).
As said, I've tried with most common fixes (and different combinations of them): reset SMC, reset NVRAM, reset bluetooth daemon (with several variants of pkill command), re-built and re-installed OCLP on my Monterey drive... still NULL and OFF status for the adapter. I've read several workarounds involving USB mapping, etc. but still not familiar with that and how could it solve my problem. Of course, the adapter works fine on my previous High Sierra installation on a different drive.
Would be thankful if anyone could give some indications for my next steps.
PS: I had made a previous Monterey clean install before this one (which I couldn't kept because of some wrong OpenCore configuration) and at that moment I managed to get bluetooth to work with some reset NVRAM-reset bluetooth daemon combination
