Full Bluetooth support on AMD with macOS Sonoma

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600
GPU: Powercolor AMD RX 6600
Bluetooth Adapter: TP-Link UB400
Motherboard: TUF B450M-Plus

Hey!

I've recently managed to get macOS working on my AMD system. Everything is working perfectly except for Bluetooth. I'm using the UB400 adapter from TP-Link along with BlueToolFixup and Intel Bluetooth kexts. I'm not sure why, but when I use BlueToolFixup only, the adapter refuses to work completely, adding the Intel kexts make it work with AirPods for whatever reason.

My question is, if you can get AirDrop and other Bluetooth features working with Ethernet. Right now the most I can do is use my AirPods. I feel like this might be due to the adapter being Bluetooth 4.0, but I'm not sure. I've tried to get it working on Monterey, Ventura and now Sonoma, always being limited to just AirPods. I'm using the Dortania guide.

I'd welcome any help and any recommendations regarding the adapter or kexts are welcome as well.

Thanks.
