Beautiful, see the built-in (00) to the right. It is a really easy fix from the DSDT, no need the chameleon flag anymore. Captura_...19.39.43.png Also, the "essential" and "expected" behavior OF COURSE in Network Interfaces (en0 Now is True): Captura_...19.50.32.png

I need to change mine to but how? the explorer not let me do any changes..?

I'm also having the same problem, I've followed the other guides to make sure that Ethernet is en1, which has now meant I can access the AppStore successfully, however I'm unable to logon to iCloud of FaceTime.

I'm not using a DSDT as Ive used EasyBeast installer method from ###### 4.4, so not sure where any edits would be.  I've downloaded the IORegistryExplorer and tried to follow the fix for the previous people within this thread, and can see the value against ethernet@0 built-in is set to 01 as opposed to 00 in the images here.  But don't know how I would change it.

Any suggestions gratefully received, everything else is working fine and stable.

Ethernet in NetworkInterfaces must to be "true".

Please upload your files o.c.B.p & smbios.plist. Also your .ioreg (using IORegistryExplorer.app) by "save a copy as" option.

Can you surf in internet by the Ethernet connection? I mean, is working fine?

I will need to take a look to those three (3) files.

I managed to find a solution to my issue on another site, details as follows:-



I knew it!!! You need a valid UUID to make your iCloud work...

For everyone that tried everything and still failed... Check on your bdmesg if you have the same error I do...

If you do then

a) Install latest chameleon boot loader
Go to http://www.famkruith...et/uuid/uuidgen, and copy the uuid generated, then change the latest part to match the MAC address of your ethernet device
c) Add the following to your org.chameleon.Boot.plist
<key>SystemId</key>
<string>The key you modified from uuidgen</string>

Anyhow that solved my problem, and I can now use iCloud and FaceTime successfully.  Hope this helps you and anyone else that is still having issues.

Regards

Dave

This didn't work for me.  In my case my build in ethernet is defective.  When I try to install the kext driver it just freezes my computer.  I have to use a RealTek USB wifi dongle.

**FOR THOSE WHO'VE TRIED EVERYTHING TO LOGIN TO ICLOUD/MESSAGES AND CAN'T. USE THIS KEXT**

--------------------------------------

I tried every solution and combination to fix the issue. I could log into the Mac App Store and iTunes Store, however I couldn't login to iCloud or Messages account. I kept getting a message saying "This is an Apple ID but not a valid iCloud account."

For some reason my Hardware UUID was causing a conflict and using the built-in UUID changer in Chameleon's boot.plist wasn't able to change my UUID either.

This kext will force the UUID to change. Be sure to install it to S/L/E and not E/E.

Godspeed.

PS - Thanks to Superhai for making this kext!

Worked for me!!!  Before that my "Hardware UUID" in "System Profile" was 00000000-0000-1000-8000-MY_MAC_ADDR.
