Just want to make sure my bios X99D2 is unlocked properly for kernel write
is this correct?

Still fighting with my nvram with no luck
What about AppleIntelInfo.kext results?

OK!!!!! Got it!!!!
I did exactly as described by @dMatik in the post: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...sful-build-extended-guide.227001/post-1901572 THANK YOU!!!!
I know it was based on X99 Deluxe and I have X99 DeluxeII but nvram from z170Deluxe did the trick, I have no idea if this is the right solution and the only one but it did the trick and I have native nvram working from now!
By any meaning, I am not encouraging anyone to go that path.
Attaching my modded bios for X99 DELUXE II ONLY with microcodes updated, imac pro splash screen, nvram write unlocked!
Use only if you have no other option and on your own responsibility. Thanks
