Facetime/iMessage - Help needed

Hey guy's,

I feel at my wits end here getting iMessage to work correctly. I have a Lenovo t400p with an i5-4300M CPU @ 2.60GHz, 8GB ram. I am also using a TP-Link tl-wn823n usb wifi adapter that has been working great.

The issue/error I am running into is just a generic:

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.

Customer Code: 0901-8067-5449
Apple ID: [mlhall@posteo.net](mailto:mlhall@posteo.net)

I have followed the following guides to the letter:

https://hackintosher.com/guides/quick-fixes-facetime-icloud-imessage-hackintosh-not-working/

I have even created a new iCloud account and re-installed MacOs three times. I just can't get passed this error. I have also phoned apple support twice, both times taking an hour or more, to have them tell me the customer code is not valid etc. etc.

I have removed all relevant iMessage files in Library/Cache and Library/Preferences, generated new serial numbers, making sure there not recognised on apple coverage (but register as the correct model on everymac.com . I have generate the serial number several times, using UUIDGEN to create the SMUUID, and using the generator in clover configurator.
