Asrock Fatal1ty Z270: iMessage, Airdrop?

[revlimiter]

Is it possible to get iMessage and Airdrop working on my 10.13.6 Hackintosh? I installed High Sierra onto it but these appear to be the only things not working at the moment.

(Full hardware specs in profile)

Thank you

For iiMessage check that your system has native NVRAM working, if not you can use emulated NVRAM.
Make sure that S/N is valid but not registered and that all critical system ID's are persistant between reboots.

There are two excellent guides to help users debug iMessage issues :-

The simpler one is this one :-

Actually this is less of a guide and more of an explanation of the procedures that I use in my own builds in order to enable access to the App Store, iMessage and FaceTime. Do not be offended by the term 'iDiot', it is not intended as an insult but more my attempt at a humorous play on words...
