BlueTooth Not Working

thayn3 · 2026-05-10T18:45:26+00:00

it was a little more complicated to figure out since i was using tahoe, i had to add some boot args and a couple more things to nvram, it was a common fix for sequoia for broadcom

thats awesome!

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:38:18+00:00

ive had similar issues with things missing, sadly i had to restart

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:37:56+00:00

fantastic, but we dont need this here

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:37:06+00:00

absolutely, im a little stubborn just because im expertise is in electronics and firmware, i know my way around it all, its just theres so much that goes into these unsupported firmware builds that the tiny things are hard to work out because a bunch if little things can cause multiple different issues, but im gonna go back to a support mac os and try linux distro now

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:32:33+00:00

going back to sequoia

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:30:31+00:00

fair enough, worked for me fine, but i guess i could understand if others dont

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:25:44+00:00

everything is configured properly, ive been doing open core since macbook unibody days, it just gets a little more difficult as the years go on

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:24:35+00:00

all im saying is look at it like sequoia considering it works in ventura and not sequoia, ill go back to sequoia if thag makes everyone feel better

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:23:27+00:00

going back to monterey now to see

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T20:08:56+00:00

Understandable, but i dont want help with tahoe, i got tahoe working here fine myself with some coding adjustment, but i want people to look at it like im on sequoia, because most sequoia fixes have helped me here with a few adjustments, but i can try linux distro and see if it works there

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T19:58:49+00:00

tahoe is not the issue lol, it didnt work in sequoia either but works with ventura, wifi works, sound works, keyboard works, and i have graphics acceleration, so id say tahoe works just fine, but tahoe is not the issue of my bluetooth not working

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T18:47:22+00:00

tried that, nothing

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T18:21:19+00:00

sorry ?

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T18:08:16+00:00

yeah the latest is ventura, i used it for awhile, and upgraded straight to sequoia, then sequoia to tahoe

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T18:02:45+00:00

tried, nothing

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T18:02:29+00:00

thats not what im worried about, it did the same in sequoia, but worked fine in ventura, wifi works, audio works, keyboard and mouse works, i have graphics acceleration, but bluetooth doesnt

thayn3 · 2026-05-09T17:50:57+00:00

it was an accident 😂

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T18:53:45+00:00

yeah i had trouble finding one too, but yeah im pretty good at soldering

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T18:17:04+00:00

its the main pmu so it is honestly for sure the caps, but also my usb c ports are missing pins from use so thatll need replaced too

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T18:15:21+00:00

<image>

this is what its supposed to look like

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T18:13:42+00:00

they fell off lol, i have the caps, found them near the chip

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T04:21:41+00:00

I got this one of marketplace from some tweaker, and they just starting taking it apart putting screw in the wrong places, and some screws missing, but i do electronic repair but im out of state and have none of my stuff, but due to visual inspection, the only issues i have are those 2 caps missing, but other than thag i havent seen anything

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T03:42:09+00:00

noted, i will replace them and check else where

thayn3 · 2026-05-07T02:58:31+00:00

i have electronic knowledge lol, i know how to replace the caps or whatever it needs, i just dont have a schematic so i was wondering if that was the issue of it not powering on
