Hi,

My iMessage was working on my Hackintosh, I have of course followed guides for setting SMBios and so on, it was working!! after two weeks or so now it stopped working and giving me "An error occurred during activation. Try again."
Did Apple change something in their activation procedure? Does anybody else have this problem? The only catch about my configuration is that I am using NullEthernet.kext, since my laptop did not have any working ethernet for Hackintosh, I even tried changing NullEthernet Mac address to an Apple's Mac address range, still the same problem.
If anybody is wondering how I am connected to internet, I am using a USB ethernet adapter.
Every time that I change my settings to retry I delete iMessage configs like this: "
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iCloudHelper*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Messages*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.imfoundation.IMRemoteURLConnectionAgent*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iChat*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.icloud*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imagent*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imessage*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imservice*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ids.service*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.madrid.plist*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imessage.bag.plist*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.identityserviced*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ids.service*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.security*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Messages
"
Still does not solve the problem, any help in this regard is appreciated
 
 
Sorry, the solution had nothing to do with my system being a laptop though, but you are right.
You can delete my thread as my problem is solved anyways. Good day to you :)
