They are literally the same files.
I am not going to send them again for no reason.

And again, how are they even going to help you understand why the make command doesn’t work?
They are not even linked to it.
Even then, you must attach your PR files.
 
After 2 months of waiting, I finally got my new MacOS compatible wireless card, BUT turned out that this laptop does have a BIOS whitelist.
It just didn't trigger it for the other card I tried.

Is there any way to modify the BIOS to allow this card to work?

My new card is a BCM94352HMB and the old card is a BCM94313HMGB.

Here is the link to to download the latest BIOS for my laptop: https://support.hp.com/us-en/driver...odel/5189024/swItemId/ob-115746-2?sku=A5G63EA
Try older version of BIOS.
 
And if non of the older versions won’t work?
 
I have no clue where to get one and thats why I asked.

Either way, I am going to try all the previous BIOS versions that were released for my laptop and if none of them will work, I'll probably need some help to mod the BIOS.


Also, did you mean a physical BIOS programmer or a PC program that can edit the file before flashing?

Yeah, you need to either find the modded one or from the manufacturer repo.

Yeah, a BIOS programmer as HP BIOS are mostly locked.
A similar guide i wrote for Lenovo Laptop.
 
Do you know from what year HP started whitelisting wireless cards?

Not really. I tried one HP Laptop with Broadwell. I upgraded the WiFi and the BIOS too and the whitelist was removed.
 
My laptop is on the latest BIOS already.
I am going to flash Windows 10 PE on a USB flash drive to run HP's BIOS upgrade tool in order to downgrade it.
 
Well, I tried every BIOS version that was ever released for my laptop and all of them had the whitelist and blocked my wireless card.
