[Solved] iMessage stopped working and now giving me activation error

[evilak]

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

Thanks for your reply, I used it actually before and it is validating my serial part by part and everything seems to be OK, anything in particular I should give attention to?

If you mean, I should try generating MLB and so on with this tool I will give it a try

My Issue finally solved, for anyone else having this problem, it was because of "OsxAptioFixDrv.efi, v3 solved the issue, funny thing is the v1 version worked for a while until it broke, therefore use "OsxAptioFix3Drv.efi" whenever possible.
