Again, Thank You!

What is the difference from an existing one?

This fixed my iMessage login problem, thanks!
I didn't have an existing one to replace.

Congrats to you, guys!

I'd love to try it, but i had to go back to Clover for unrelated issues on the computers that are iMessage capable (specifically, both computers undergone hard-resets, one of them for a problem with Windows 8 and the other, after a Migration Assistant hang, and in both cases my system was rendered unbootable, and i couldn't boot even from my rescue USB stick - the partitions were not even seen by chameleon! - and all fixes i tried failed to solve the issue - i tried reinstalling chameleon, flashing boot1h, resizing the partition and aptempting disk repairs from the terminal, to no avail).

I still have chameleon on my AMD rig. It's running Snow Leopard: as soon as i can update it to Mountain Lion, this app will be really useful for me.

Best regards.

Year the problem with boot-args was really solved, the others I didnt have.

But why, if you have so many issues, do you use Clover?  Clover is not better than chameleon. At least, for me.

I agree, Alex009988. Just read my post again: it's quite self explanatory.

I finally found time to try this little gem.

My steps:
- update to Chameleon rev r2183
- drop FileNVRAM.dylib in my /Extra/Modules
- remove ACPICodec.dylib from /Extra/Modules
- move my DSDT.aml and SSDT.aml from /Extra/ACPI to /Extra
- reboot.

Booted back in to 10.8.2, I see I have nvram.xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx.plist in /Extra.
I load up iMessage, any voila.. all working.

So simple. Thank you for your work

One downside to this module is that when you change boot arguments in org.chameleon.boot.plist, it becomes permanent because the module stores the boot-args and then reloads them every time. You have to manually delete the boot-args using nvram from the command line. It would be nice if the module was smart enough to see that there is a difference in the boot args stored in the nvram.plist and the boot.plist and give the boot.plist the higher precedence.

Your post makes no sense.
