Hello tonymac!
I recently had some bad luck with my first build (was sandy bridge) and I had to pull the trigger on some new hardware.
For my new build I chose a smbios of 18,2 on clover configurator because it most closely matches my new machine.
I have gone through the iMessage for iDiots guide and even read over the full guide many times, and have had no luck with iMessage.
Absolutely every time I get the please call message with a customer code.
(I even called apple and the senior rep couldn't fathom why I was still getting the message after they "activated" and wanted to forward the issue to software engineers)
On my last build I used ROM and MLB from my real MacBook and had iMessage working, but people seem pretty confident that it can be done using CC generated values. Can anybody give me some insight as to why I can't get it to work?? Is it that the serials I have tried are all blacklisted? is there another way to generate a serial?
One thing I have noticed is there is no shake week and whatever in CC anymore and I'm not sure how the serials are generated.
If I switch smbios to the same values as my last build will iMessage work and what will I loose (like turbo freq?)
TIA
