What I know, is that the serial is send to apple. I know that you may not even need the serial, but just in case, I wanted to know if they could see that, hey this machine can't even run an OS that uses iMessage. Will they recognize this? Or is that completely subjective to the rep?
I do have an official serial number, however, it is from an old G4 Mac Mini. Now I was wondering, my current build is obviously modern, able to run Yosemite and all.

I was finally able to get the Customer Code screen, which seems to be the gateway to get it fixed. I would not recommend you to call Apple, as you are not using a mac, even if some other tutorials tell you that. If you get an Code and you are asked to call apple, you are using some invalid ID combination, usually related by ROM/MLB. Normally you should not get any error or code from iMessage if you use a valid ROM/MLB combination. You will now be prompted to re-login to iCloud and iMessage. If it is so, you can reconnect to your network. Do this several times and always check with iMessageDebug (double click on the file), that all IDs are set and stay the same. Go System Parameters Section on Clover Configurator and make sure, that those are empty!ĭisconnect your computer form Internet and Reboot. You can also still use both Macs on the same times on iMessage. The real mac does not need the be the same model as your SmBios, you can use the ROM/MLB form a MacBookPro with MacPro SmBios on you hack. To find those Values on a real mac, simply run iMessage Debug or for older macs (OS X Lion / Snow Leopard) check out here (by Fusion71au). Go to the RT Variables Section, enter the MLB (BoardSerialNumber) & ROM value from a real mac and click Calculate.ĭo not use values found on the Internet! Only use values from your own mac and never ever share them! To learn more about MLB check out this Thread by holyfield. In my example this would be: C02LHIA7DNMP 7E8G4 The second file that needs to be populated, is the board ID.įor this, just copy your Serial and Enter some random letters and numbers, that you get a length of 17 digits! Repeat this 3-4 times to be sure to get an unique one. Now you need to populate those 2 RED indicated fields. You should now have a screen similar to this one. Repeat this until you get an error message on the site. If you don’t get an error Message, just randomise the serial again with the 2 little shake buttons. To do this: go to and enter you generated serial.
Now you need to check, if your Serial is a generic one and not from a real mac. (Note: This is only an example, don’t use the serials shown in the image!) If you are not sure which one, check your About this Mac>System Reports and check your Model Identifier (in this example iMac (13,2) ).Ĭlick several times on the little shake buttons to generate a Unique Serial for you Hackintosh. Click on the magic wand icon and select appropriate bios for your system. Now move to the SMBIOS Section (left menu). Select following config file: EFI > EFI > CLOVER > ist Open the Clover Configurator Application, you should see following screen: Look for your System HardDrive or SSD (in my case HackintoshSSD 10) and copy your EFI partition IDENTIFIER (in my case disk1s1) You need to mount you EFI partition, to do so, type following command in terminal (Applications>Utilities>Terminal) Never share your ID's and never believe or use ID's found on the internet! You will probably need to call the Apple support to activate iMessage, but don’t worry, I will explain you what you need to do.Īlso try to change your IDs as less as possible, this is also why I advise you to disconnect temporary from internet after step 3. Please follow all steps, or at least read them all. Please do not ask questions related to Chameleon or other Bootloaders. I always prefer to use generated IDs, but actually there is no way around. The use of real mac MLB/ROM is a temporary solution. IMPORTANT: CAUSED BY NEW APPLE VERIFICATION-STEPS, you need MLB (BoardSerialNumber) and ROM from a real Mac.
