I did a direct update today through the App Store. After the restart in the middle of the update, I got stuck at a black screen with an arrow. I tried waiting at that screen for hours and various boot flags but never could get past it. I did a restore then tried the install again. Again, I got...

I had that issue my first attempt. I had selected boot without caches but had not selected inject kexts. Injecting kexts and booting without caches fixed that issue for me.

I've seen where several other people have had issues with getting a black screen with a mouse midway through the install after you finish up with the installer and need to boot into the OS X drive for the first time to finish the install. However, I never saw where there was a clear resolution...

I noticed that if I went to About This Mac that one of my monitors, which is connected to my graphics card, was showing as connected to both my graphics card and iGPU.

I decided to brave updating my ROM and MLB values again after the first spectacular fail on that front. Update worked without a hitch using the MAC address of my ethernet card as the ROM value and S/N + 5 randoms as the MLB. However, this did not immediately appear to give iMessages any...

Just wanted to throw out an update. BTW, I'm running Yosemite using Clover. SMS messages actually were going through, but they were only showing up on phones, not iPads. At some point during the day, iMessages started more or less working (but now SMSes really don't work, it tries to only do...

I built my first hackintosh in November. Since then, I've been checking back for updates on this guide hoping that I'd be able to get iMessage to work someday. Monday night, I checked back and saw that users were able to start using iMessage again. So, I started following through the guide and...
