For the past few weeks, Hackintoshes have been unable to log into the Messages app (better known as 'iMessage') on OS X Mountain Lion. Last week, we showed you how to fix these problems with Clover bootloader, an alternative to the more popular Chameleon and Chimera bootloaders for Hackintoshes. However, if you want a slightly simpler fix, you're in luck: we can now fix the problem using Chimera bootloader instead. Read past the break for details.
In this guide, you will install the newest version of Chimera bootloader, as well as an extra DYLIB file to your bootloader's configuration folder. This will allow your Hackintosh to emulate a real Mac, thereby circumventing the authorization problems that Hackintoshes have been experiencing with iMessage.
Requirements
Chimera is the first true iOS 12 jailbreak to not only feature a CoreTrust bypass so that binaries don't need to be resigned, but to also support A12 devices, including iPhone Xs, iPhone Xr, and the newest iPads. Chimera doesn't tamper with user files, making it safer than alternatives. Chimera 0.2.0 for Mac OS X is now available for download. If you prefer using Mozilla to IE5.x/Mac but dislike the lack of an Aqua GUI, then this is the browser for you. Chimera now supports Quartz rendering and is based on the Gecko engine which means it has great standards compliance.
- A working Hackintosh: For this guide, we will assume that you already have a working Hackintosh. If you haven't installed Mac OS X on your PC yet, check out our guide to installing OS X Mountain Lion with Unibeast.
- Chimera Bootloader (version 2.0+): To apply this fix, you need version 2.0 or newer of Chimera bootloader, which can circumvent the new authorization requirements in iMessage. Chimera is installed on your Hackintosh by default when you install UserDSDT or Easybeast in Multibeast.
- FileNVRAM.dylib: This is a code library that Chimera will use to pretend that your Hackintosh is a real Mac, thereby circumventing iMessage's authorization requirements. As of May 11, 2014, this are three different versions of this file: version 1.1.1, 1.1.2, and 1.1.3. All three versions should work on the newest version of Chimera. However, if you're concerned at compatibility, just download version 1.1.2.
Chimera For Mac Os X 10.7
DOWNLOAD: FileNVRAM.dylib
As of May 11, 2014, this are three different versions of this file: version 1.1.1, 1.1.2, and 1.1.3. All three versions should work on the newest version of Chimera. However, if you're concerned at compatibility, just download version 1.1.2.
NOTE: If you already have the file 'ACPICodec.dylib' inside your 'Modules' folder, you will have to delete it.
