Morea Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Hi everybody! I'm really searching for someone to help me...I've got a little problem that I can't solve right now. I've just installed Mac OS Sierra on my desktop PC and everything is really great, didn't have any problem for a while until iMessage stopped working. I fixed it two days ago and it worked flawlessly that day. Yesterday when I opened my Hackintosh it suddenly didn't work anymore. I've tried changing my serial number, SmUUID and Board Serial Number but at reboot the serial number it's the same it was before even though in Clover's plist file it shows the one I've just put. This is driving me mad because it sucks not having working iMessage: the problem isn't authentication because it does actually log in, but I'm unable to send iMessages, just SMS! What can I do? Please help me, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigamaxx Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Check your main partition for "EFI Backups" folder, if you run or install clover 2 times on same disk it loads the old clover edition on the main partition in EFI Backups folder. It will have the original config.plist there which can cause problems due to conflicts. If its there replace with the new plist. Another possibility, open disk utility and select your main drive tab look for child count. With a simple setup you will have a EFi (small partition 200Gb avg.) and your main partition, Child count =2. Child count = 3 could mean and extra EFI partition or a time machine backup or recovery partition. If you have no recovery partition then use EFIMounter and mount EFi partitions, if you have one SSD/HDD the you should only have disk0s1 as an option for main disk or boot disk. Disk1s1, Disk2s1 would be other drives or possibly extra un needed EFi folders. In other words if you run or instal clover more than once on your drive its possible to create an extra EFi partition that is hidden and causing it to boot with unwanted parameters. this is similar to having a EFI backups folder that doesn't match your primary boot EFI. I've run across both of these issues over time, its frustrating when you change a config.plist and it doesn't get recognized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morea Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Run this: sudo nvram -c After this take a look in see if your S/N is the way that you want. I’m doing this ASAP! Then, after running nvram -c should I change the serial in Clover Configurator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
