How to Fix iMessage

[esafeddie]

ok thats good. Have you tested the other available drivers for windows ?

I can login but I can't activate iMessage, even if I use my iMac's ROM & MBL... It still says contact apple support..

In Glover you can choose drivers for ntfs etc....

Despite reading through this guide and doing pretty much everything it said multiple times, my setup isn't working with iMessage. My setup is running as an iMac 14,2 and every iCloud feature including FaceTime works flawlessly - except for iMessage.

I continually see the attached message when attempting to log in. Have tried generating serials and such with Configurator, and even using the MLB and ROM of a genuine Mac that wasn't in use. I ran through the whole "iDiot's Guide" process to no avail. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

@ JoshJoseph - Check that your ethernet is registered as (en0) and builtin also if you haven't already, run iMessageDeBugger and check the values displayed.

Ethernet is en0 and builtin, what's happening with Debug is the ROM and "BoardSerialNumber" areas both say "failed" consistently, whether I'm using generated or genuine values.

See Post #6301 - With your motherboard you may need to install EmuVariableUefi-64 (and RC scripts).

Did the following install (see attached), ran through entire iDiot's guide again, still failing ROM and MLB in Debug...

Your NvRAM is not retaining your ROM and MLB values hence the failure of iMsg. I suggest download the latest version of Clover Configurator -> mount your EFI partition -> check that the two fore mentioned values are present if not input them again -> then go to this section of Configurator as shown in the pic and tick the box to the right of 'NVRAM emulation' and save to config.plist -> reboot and try iMsg with new settings. Good luck.

Tried this additional setting, seems like it turns itself off after a restart, can't get it to stay checked. MLB/ROM still failing.
