Hi, I have a Acer Aspire A515-52G-577T that I made a Ventura hackintosh.

To successfully install Monterey using this OpenCore EFI 0.7.8 from this guy, the laptop models seems different but the hardware is exactly the same as mine, the only change Acer made was the outside color, so they changed the model name.

I also bought a Wifi + BT card ´Bcm94352z´ compatible with macOS, the first change I made from his EFI was removing the old Kext from the USB Dongle and installed AirportBrcmFixUp this kext fixed the wifi, after that I also installed BlueToolFixUp and I can turn on/off the bluetooth and see nearby devices, I can even use the Airdrop to transfer files from my iPhone.

But what is happening is that when I try to connect to any bluetooth device like AirPods, headphones, speakers, keyboard it won´t connect.

So before try to dig any further in that issue I upgraded all the Kexts and the OpenCore to the version 0.8.7 I successfully upgraded to macOS Ventura without issues, but the bluetooth still won´t connect to devices.

I also tried to adding the Kexts: BrcmFirmwareData.kext and BrcmPatchRAM3.kext but it didn´t fixed my issue.

I attached my EFI to the thread (I removed the SMBios information), does anyone has any clue how I could fix this issue?
I appreciate you time :)
