What data goes to Apple if you don't turn off wifi?

When rebooting, I temporarily set iMac 14.2 to boot and then the serial number of the company changed which was already lit up in my Icloud, after installing the patch on the video, my system booted up as IMac 17.1

You might want to take a look at the packet filter and it's configuration file

/etc/pf.conf

The simplest mechanism to block everything by default and only pass packets that match explicit rules is specify a first filter rule of:

block all

I think your clover is old. I had this problem and it solved by updating it with the latest version.
I uploaded clover EFI. use that to boot.
my cpu is 6600K. If you won't be able to boot again, post here so I upload my own EFI and config.plist.
P.S. I was stuck at black login screen same as you, I reckon.

I tried your EFI folder all I get are "+++++++++++++++" Recommendations?

Are you using OsxAptioFixDrv2? Attach Clover folder removing Themes ZIP attach.

Yes I am, should I remove it? Also please note about my clover, Unibeast 7.1 does not work correctly, so i am using unibeast then Clover 4045 to reinstall EFI.

I had posted here already about having the same flickering problem that others with ATI based video cards are having, but I have a little more information now, that may give someone smarter than me a clue as to what's going on. I'm using a Radeon HD6670 card, and have been using it with dual monitors since day one with no problems until this update. I discovered yesterday that if one of my monitors was disconnected, the flickering went away! I also noticed that with both monitors connected, under System Information/Hardware/Graphics/Displays both monitors showed they were using 30 bit color; with only one monitor connected, it showed 32 bit color, just as it should. After seeing the post about SwitchResX, I downloaded it and gave it a try. Sure enough, after setting each monitor to millions instead of billions of colors, no more flickering....and System Information is showing 32 bit color for both monitors. Just to add to the insanity, I tried an old NVidia GT440 card I had laying around---black screen, both monitors, no matter what. I tried both the native drivers and the web drivers, nothing worked. Anyone got ay ideas, comments or suggestions?

I have two monitors as well however disconnecting one didn't fix the problem. I confirm however that both displays are shown as having 30-bit color in the System Information. Using DisableMonitor and switching to 32-bit color fixed my problem and now both displays are shown as 32-bit color depth in System Information.
