Intel i3 8100 & UHD 630 | macOS Monterey
I found two solutions. The first is a kext named "BlueToolFixup.kext" (https://github.com/acidanthera/BrcmPatchRAM) to make the UB400 work on higher versions. The second solution is a program that makes wireless USB adapters functional even though no drivers were available from the manufacturer (https://github.com/chris1111/Wireless-USB-OC-Big-Sur-Adapter/releases/tag/V16).

My laptop's can't recognize my tap
Questions/Basic Troubleshooting - Did you determine which type/hardware/rev your Touchpad is? Did you check in the BIOS if it's actually HID, or PS/2? You stated HID, but I see a kext entry for VoodooPS2Trackpad as well. Did you read the guide over on the VoodooPS2 page?. You may or may not have to edit the config inside the VoodooPS2Trackpad.Kext (hardware dependent, and not always necessary as of 2.28). Read carefully, there are known issues with Trackpad Gestures. Do you also have a Touchscreen as well, and is it working? (I see Voodooi2c, assuming there's no other i2c devices) Did you do Clean Snapshot after loading your Kexts/ACPI?? OCValidate?
