I'm trying to troubleshoot problems with signing into iCloud and getting Messages to work and I noticed that no matter the changes I make to SMBIOS and RT Variables in my config file in Clover Configurator, they don't transfer over and stay in About My Mac or show up in iMessageDebug. For instance, I've been saving my SMBIOS as an iMac14,2 but it always shows 14,1.

I just realized that in Clover options at first boot up, iMac14,1 is listed in the boot options. I've gone there and changed it all to the 14,2 settings, but that still doesn't stick.

I'm new to this so I'm sure there is an obvious fix, but how do I override what is stored at boot for SMBIOS and have my computer go with the changes I make in my config file in the EFI partition of my main volume?

(I have selected Inject SystemID, fwiw)

Many Thanks.
 
maybe posting your dsdt and config files would help
