@accountmac,
From what you describe everything sounds correct, don't worry that Chimera 3.0.1 says R2286 on boot, its because Chimera is based on the core code of Chameleon. when you say you've tried everything have you tried removing the security plists detailed in the update to step 4, part 1 of the guide ?
I am 99.9% sure that this latest iMessage issue has nothing to do with the iTunes update, it seems more likely to be connected to the iMessage outage reported worldwide around 8/9 of Aug, although why it seems to effect some users and not others is unknown at this time. I and others have been able to reactivate iMessage on a number of machines using the following procedure.
There should be no need to inject SM UUID on GA-Z87N-WiFi its bios is not effected via the SId Bug, i have same Motherboard in two of my systems here and iMessage is working fine ...
- Follow all of step 4 including the optional step detailed in the update.
- Clear the NVRAM boot args - sudo nvram boot-args=""
- Remove nvram.uuid.plist from /Extra
- Empty the trash
- Reboot
If the above does not work for you try looking in your console log for pointers .....
Try to keep an update Timemachine backup at all times, you never know when you might need it.
If all else fails you could try a re-install of OSX which some users have done, however i personally have not had to do that in order to get iMessage working again.
Good Luck
Cheers
Jay
Jay,
I tried that as well and still no luck. Console says this:

Let me know if that suggests an obvious solution.
