iMessage not working even after SMBIOS change #102

Closed PikaGamer8 closed 6 months ago

PikaGamer8 commented 6 months ago

Which operating system are you trying to install? I am on macOS Ventura.

Describe the bug Whenever signing in, I get one of two errors, I get into the Messages app but after 10 seconds I get kicked out or get the error that an unknown error has occured.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to 'Messages'
  2. 'Sign in'
  3. 'Wait around 10 seconds after sign in'
  4. Messages kicks me out

Expected behavior To be able to use iMessage and FaceTime

config.plist in the ZIP file

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context Apple Store and iCloud do work. I have also tried everything in the OpenCore guide and OneClick guide (https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/iservices.html and https://oneclick-macos-simple-kvm.notaperson535.is-a.dev/docs/guide-Apple-ID) including fixing en0, ROM, etc. I have even tried different SMBIOS and my Apple ID is confirmed to not be in spam.

Partially solved: Only works on Catalina

Thanks for the advice, but I have it working now and am back in Ventura after upgrading from Catalina. Thanks for the help and this project! 😊

To anyone else in this scenario, you could either try what notAperson535 suggested above or you could go with my method of restarting in Catalina, getting a customer code, and talk to Apple Support. I tried notAperson535's method on a new Apple ID on a spare computer and it worked so their idea is definitely the easiest.
