Hi guys, noobie here.
I have a Asus Zenbook UX303U with a i7 6500u and a Intel HD520 graphics card.
I have managed to get most of hardware working with patches and kexts. My App Store is working and the icloud as well. BUt, I still don't have access to the imessage/facetime service.

I have nvram working, and even the NullEthernet Kext is working too, although on my networks, I wasn't able to get native wifi working because it's a intel wifi board.
I have went through the Clover settings to change the UUid's and all that stuff, and at some point over the weekend, I believe I was able to get the messages working, even if just for a very brief moment.
But when I went to the messages preferences and clicked on the accounts, I saw that the account was inactive and when I tried to activate it, it just didn't work.
Now, my questions are: since I don't have native wifi support, so I had to buy a external card:
Adaptador USB Wi-Fi ASUS USB N10 Nano which has support for Mac. My ethernet has to be from an adapter:
https://www.asus.com/Laptops-Accessory/USB_Ethernet_Cable/
How to make any of these built-in, or have the built-in check in the DCPI Manager to try to get the Messages working?
COuld this be the cause of my messages service not working?
How can I get through this situation?

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I know it sounds obvious but you have to make sure both iPhone and Mac are on the same wifi network and both are registered in iCloud (Devices) to your account. If this is done and you're still having a problem, you need to log out you Mac from iCloud, reboot your Mac logon to iCloud, you should get a pop up message on your phone about a new Mac, just follow the on screen instructions or prompts, this is to synchronise both devices for text msgs, FaceTime and calls. Good luck.
I have tried that. They are on the same wifi network too. I will try it one more time and see what happens.

I tried to do as you said and it didn't sink. I then attempted to enable Text Message forwarding and no number came up on the hackintosh. Not sure what is up with that.

Google 'How to setup Continuity between Mac and other Apple devices' will give a useful insight to what steps to take to synchronise both devices.
 
I redid all of the patches and such for the wifi. It is showing that the continuity isn't working in 10.13 so my guess that is why I am not seeing the messages come in from the iPhone to the Hackintosh or the Hackintosh to the iPhone.
 
My hack runs fine with High Sierra 10.13.3. IDs (ROM & MLB) are persistent during reboot. My WAN IP is static

Login with my apple id in iCloud, iMessage and Facetime without any issue.

But I can only login with my wife id in iCloud, Facetime and iMessage give me the Contact Apple Support message. This id has been created recently and it is used in this system for the first time.

I also try logout and re-login my own apple id serveral times and it still works great

Any idea

Again, newly created ID's will have a much tougher time logging into an account on a hack than a genuine Apple device. I am afraid you're at the mercy of Apple Servers when they feel that particular ID/ID's does not pose a security threat and grant a Security Token on the hack for that ID/ID's. That's the best half arsed way I can describe what is happening. Just give it some time. Good luck.
 
Hello everyone,

I have a problem too, for a long time everything worked for me, Continuity, FaceTime and Imessenger.
But I don't know when it happened, I thing after I updated my bios, now I can't get FaceTime and Imessenger to work.

When I try I get the "an error occurred during activation".

It worked for months, and nothing else changes except for the last update.

I tried generating a new ROM key, and updated the FakeSMC, but it doest work.
My Serialnumber is also unique,

Can it be because I bought a real MacBook?
