Hello everyone,

Here is my MacPro5,1 config :

I'm of course running OPCL in order to have Monterey on my MacPro 5,1

Here is my issue :
My bluetooth will not turn on, and my Bluetooth card does not seem to be recognise :

My WiFi however is working without any issue :

I've install the OPCL root patches, also tried to remove and reinstall, but the BT still does not work.
I've also tried the PRAM reset but it didn't fix anything.

After looking online I saw many solution for Hackintosh config but I don't think it's a good idea to try it on my Mac.

Do you guys have any idea how to fix the problem or any recommendation for another BT card that I can easily install?

Thanks a lot ;)
 
Thanks for your reply, although I do not want to use Universal Control, I only want the BT to turn on. I was hoping for a more simple solution even if it does not allow me to have all the complex BT/Airdrop features.
