How to Fix iMessage

[GrinRoth]

Thank you P1LGRIM and esafeddie! Got it working!!

I have changed BordSerialnumber, Systemid and ROM value.
And after some trial and error, i signed out of iCloud (again) from System Preferences and signed in again.

Suddenly it started to work again! Some phonenr's are still red (not registered to iMessage) which of course isn't right but I think that will need some time, because when i receive iMessages, i also receive them on my hack now and i can reply from there.

So Thanks again, now I'll just wait and see if it still works this weekend..

Happy Days!!! Glad to hear you got it working, just give it a few days or so, sometimes it takes a while for the services to sync across the devices - Thanks for reporting back.

I'm getting "xxxx is not registered with iMessage" to everyone that I try to send messages.
I've also done all the guides, steps and it still tells me the above error. I appreciate any help.

Suggesting to add this step in Chapter: 3.3 Reset iMessage Configuration files

1. Before signing out of all Apple ID apps
2. Go to System Preferences > iCloud > Accounts > Devices Tab
3. Highlight and "Remove From Account" any related devices to your Hackintosh build you are trying to get iMessages to work on.
4. Proceed to follow Chapter: 3.3

This resolved my issue of (xxx) xxx-xxxx is not registered with iMessage error even though signing in to iMessage was succesful and received popup notifications on my iOS device that the device was signed in.

After I called with the Apple Customer Care to unlock my Apple ID (I got the message in Chapter 8) I got a new problem with iMessage.

Now my iMessage is activated but I can't send any messages to anyone in my contact list.
iMessage only says that the contact I want to text "is not registered with iMessage" also when I try to text myself.
On my iPhone and iPad everything works.

In the pictures below you can see the issue. I hope anyone could help me because I have found no solution on the internet to fix this issue.

Id be willing to bet you have a generic value or a value that is not remaining constant through reboots..
Run iMessageDebug and post the contents here.
