I am facing the same problem while updating Sierra to High Sierra, tried every method/ Its not working. same firmware update error. Need a solution
The only thing that got me past this was removing my graphics card and booting from integrated graphics.

Open it in Clover Configurator and select another system definition, then choose iMac14,2 again and all of the information will be updated :

The Serial Number and SmUUID that I have change when do this, is posible keep the originals serial and SmUUID or doing this can reproduce an error?

Note : I do the steps of SMBIOS Generation with Clover on a Backup Clone to try, keeping the originals Serial and SmUUID and then I can't boot, freezing on logo
