Hi all, I've followed everything in the iMessage guides to the letter. All of my hardware IDs are constant and consistent. I've used MacBook Pro 14,3 as my model (I have a Tong Fang GK5CN6Z Coffee Lake laptop). My serial number returns "invalid" when checked and is not somebody else's real Mac S/N. I have a working emulated NVRAM (no native support). My SmUUID, ROM and MLB are all as per instructions. I have tried two Apple IDs and I get the same message both in iMessage and FaceTime, saying "You cannot sign in to iMessage on this Mac at this time. To use iMessage with this Mac, contact Apple Support and provide the code below." I tried contacting Support, insinuating something about blocked AppleIDs and activation, etc. just like the guides say, but customer support is adamant that this is an issue with my "Mac" and not with any AppleID authentication problems. One even said that there are no restrictions whatsoever on my ID. I've tried three different customer support assistants over the past three days, all said the same thing. I've tried three different S/N configurations so far. Nothing worked. The farthest I've come is I can get past the initial login into iMessage, but then when I go to Preferences, my account is inactive. I put in my password, and it logs me in successfully for about five seconds, then logs me back out and displays that error message. I don't know what to do at this point. Please, any help is appreciated.
