MP 1,1-5,1 4 BluetoothActiveControllerInfos (not ok)

[bmoore262]

Excuse my ignorance but my boot rom seems OK except for the "4 BluetoothActiveControllerInfos (not ok)" insert.

Is there anything I can do to remedy this? I also see my free space decreasing though I expect the 'garbage collection' to kick in soon.

I'm doing this to educate myself as I've read about this on the forum.

Thanks.

if (($BluetoothInternalControllerInfos < 3))
	then echo $BluetoothInternalControllerInfos' BluetoothInternalControllerInfos (ok)'
	else
	echo $BluetoothInternalControllerInfos' BluetoothInternalControllerInfos (not ok)'

Sorry im unable to answer your query, but what software did you use to see those results?

"Macschrauber's CMP Rom Dump".

From one of the members on this forum.

are you booting old and new systems?

Those controller vars seem to be not compatible if using Big Sur and Mojave for example.

GC should be kick in after 2 or 3 more reboots (7000-8000 bytes will be written each reboot)

you can force a manual garbage collection by triple nvram reset in one row. Think of re-blessing your ESP or bootvolume. After gc the bluetooth controller should be back at 1 (1 in VSS1, 0 in VSS2 as VSS2 is empty after manual gc. The dumper will tell the empty VSS2 stream if manual gc happened).


btw. use the shift key while starting the tool to hide your serial number when posting.

My original BT is not working correctly so I have a BT adapter plugged into a usb port.

So maybe this is giving me that result ie (4 BluetoothActiveControllerInfos (not ok ).

you could pull the onboard Bluetooth board if you use a dongle.

Thanks, I'll do that.
