How to Fix iMessage

I have tried this over and over. Many times on my El Cap and now again after a clean Sierra build. Each time I am able to get to the customer support code screen, and I contact apple support. They try the code, it doesn't work, they run me up the latter a few tiers and in the end they never figure out why it won't activate when they put in the code. I get the same code every time (obviously a new one since the fresh start on Sierra) and I have verified that my machine info is valid on Mac hunter and unregistered on AppleCare. I get the same results on iMessage debug over and over so nothing is changing. Any ideas?
 
I had a lot of trouble getting iMessage to work on Yosemite. I upgraded to Mac OS Sierra. iMessage was logged in but I was unable to send messages.

I reset the network settings as my ethernet port was not on, rebooted, and was only able to send iMessages. I kept the iMessage window open, send a text, and a prompt on my Mac said that I didn't have Text forwarding enabled. I put in the code and BAM! Y hack is working 100%

THANKS SO MUCH!
 
Hello folks!
When I try to use the iMessage on my newly made macOS Sierra 10.12 I got an error message saying: Could not sign in to iMessage. An error occurred during the activation. Try again.

The console output from the iMessage says the following:

Hello P1LGRIM, as I mentioned on the other thread, I did everything mentioned on that guide, except for the part that says:

In the left pane select Rt Variables
From the ROM dropdown list select UseMacAddr0
Make sure that the MLB box is empty
Set BooterConfig to 0x28
Set CsrActiveConfig to 0x67​

And, I reconnect to the network to download the Board Serial Number script.

Now I'm getting a different error on iMessage, when I try to login, it says:

You cannot sign in to iMessage on this Mac at this time.

To use iMessage with this Mac, contact Apple Support and provide the code below.
Customer Code: 5591-8683-0376

The guide will only work if you follow it.
 
Good day,

I am under Sierra having everything working excepted iMessages/Facetime.
I strictly followed the guide and still blocked a the login Panel. When I enter the ID/passwd nothing happens.

Any idea ?

Many thanks in advance
