With HP EliteBook G3 with BigSur 11.1 and OpenCore 0.6.5 EFI, I did follow idiot's guide here (despite it's outdated using Clover and 2016 tools) and OpenCore guide for iMessage, I could not manage to get it work.

  • I did everything, my ethernet is en0 and Builtin by default
  • Used original Ethernet MAC as ROM and lately changed prefix of vendor as Apple Inc.
  • Changed UUID several times, changed SN, changed it all, used guide step by step, used several SN / UUID from OpenCore Configurator, GenSMBIOS, ProperTree.
  • Reset NVRAM several times, cleared caches even reinstalled macOS twice from scratch.
  • Using iMessage with or without Apple ID signed in. Same issue, signs-in and immediately sign-out.
  • Used with / without VPN, same
  • I use 2 Apple ID, one of them with credit card linked and physically used in my iPhone.

Model I use as emulator: MacBookPro13,1

iMessage charges for activation when I use on my iPhone for first time from mobile provider, I am from Egypt and my account is Egyptian and other is US.

The last config.plist I use is attached (SN/UUID in the file is not the ones I use currently), also changed ROM from my original ethernet Mac for security concerns.

Should someone help revise all config.plist parameters (even with included kexts, ACPI, booter..)? Maybe something causing mess in there
