macOS 10.12.4 Update

Not sure I can help but for what it's worth ...

First up check that your BIOS hasn't reset itself to defaults. This used to be a common occurence a while back and there was a MultiBeast fix in place to prevent it. Personally I've not had a BIOS reset for a very long time but it's worth double-checking.

Next, do you still have a Sierra UniBeast installer stick? If so use it to re-install the previous version of Sierra it was created with. Don't boot to the installed OS, instead boot to the External disk, i.e. the installer on your memory stick etc. It may give an error if you try to install (in the past you weren't allowed to rollback) but again, for me, it worked fine and allowed me to re-install 10.12.3. Because the disk wasn't formatted afresh it left all my apps and data in place and just rolled-back to 10.12.3. Took about 30-mins. Once there I was able to update Clover before trying 10.12.4 again. Give it a try?

I would normally say back up your data, but perhaps you can't get at it? If so try attaching the SSD to a Windows system using an HFS+ driver to copy it to safety.

:)
I have reset and check my BIOS as suggested.

I am trying to create a new UniBeast USB to install it on a new drive then remove my files from old drive for a fresh install.

Unibeast is not being nice. I only get to this. This is the worst update... I have been doing hackintosh since Lion.

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.
