my CSR Bluetooth dongle is not working on my ryzentosh, i tried to install Brcm (https://github.com/acidanthera/BrcmPatchRAM) kext files but it didn't work, please help me to solve this issue

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).
