I'm afraid there's no solution to the iMessage issue under Chameleon for the moment (unless you could steal the read id/serial numbers of a Mac). Apple did change its own security system and the NVRAM module solution is no longer effective. You'd probably have to switch to Clover to have any hope of recovering use of that app.

Cannot boot Snow Leopard after applying Vostro 200 bootpack
Hervé replied to Bashibazouk's topic in The Archive
I've posted full packs that do not require EDP in my Vostro200 thread. You can use that. -
If you're using Clover, you probably were not using any patched kexts but faking desktop HD4600 GPU id. Try to boot without cache to begin with.
-
Guys, please provide your LAN card PCI ids (Vendor + Device). That'll be available through lspci -nn Terminal command (if you have the lspci driver + binaries installed) or DCPIManager app.
-
If you were using patched kexts in /S/L/E before your update, you'll have obviously lost that after the update. You would then need to repatch the graphics kexts that were installed by the update (most notably the AzulFramebuffer kext)
-
There are examples of what to do here. This was all based on Chameleon installation, not Clover which may overwrite some of those settings...

Cannot boot Snow Leopard after applying Vostro 200 bootpack
Hervé replied to Bashibazouk's topic in The Archive
Sounds like a cache issue. Try to boot Chameleon with -f flag. -
Check the various USB devices in the DSDT, they may also have to be renamed into UHC devices. Changing EHCI to EHC1 may not be sufficient. Following such advise from Polyzargone at IM, I'm about to verify this on the D630. Meantime, try this new one where all USBx devices are converted to UHCx devices: E6400_DSDT.aml.zip

You should post your files for the benefits of others.
-
Afaik, you can only run off the HD4600, the discrete AMD GPU is not supported (yet?).
-
Jake has posted several posts about the method to fake desktop HD4600 GPU (id 0x0412) with kexts. I'm sorry I don't have links at hand but you'll find them in the guide section or through the Search engine. You can also consult my E6440 Mavericks/Yosemite guide which fully details the methods I followed to patch the Azul frame buffer kext to support the mobile HD4600 GPU (id 0x0416). The exact same principles will apply to your HD4400. PS: afaik, Chameleon boot parameter "IntelAzulFB=xxx" is ineffective with Yosemite. With my E6440, it worked perfectly with Mavericks, never with Yosemite. I had to patch the DSDT.
-
That's quite normal, but can you confirm you reached the Yosemite desktop? You now need to finalise tuning to obtain graphics acceleration. You could do that either by faking HD4600 Desktop or by patching the graphics kext.
-
Again, all the necessary kexts and files are in the D630 pack I posted... You don't need EDP, which happens not to work at this time.
-
You probably have the wrong DSDT with unsuitable graphics settings for your particular LCD. What's its resolution?
-
No reason why it would not work. You can use my E6440 guide and adapt if necessary. I've linked to it on post #52. It'll depend on your own system's specs but it should be very similar to the E6440.
-
You need to set up the clover config.plist correctly for your own model, depending on specs. Could mean unselecting all DSDT fixes, selecting (or not selecting) kernel and/or AICPUPM patch, etc. I still haven't managed to boot the Clover USB installer on my C2D-based D630 either...
-
Open up the DSDT.aml file with a tool such as DSDTEditor, then do a search for "EHCI" and replace by "EHC1" (there could be a couple of instances). Compile the edited code and save as DSDT.aml. Place the newly compiled DSDT file in the Clover folder and reboot.
-
Are you building a myHack installation with our OSXL bootpack? Or is it some other method or a distro?
-
Maybe you're not using the correct bootpack for the Lion installer. You can use those I posted for the D630 X3100.
-
Sure, there are many guides on this forum for the E6x30 series. Use the "Search" facility.
-
BIOS settings all supplied at the top of the D8xx section...
-
No kext needed to support SATA drives.
-
Apple's Security Update 2015-004 will again break MPLF. In addition to the same files as mentioned above, it also installs IOSurface kext v86.0.5 in /S/L/E. A rollback to attached version v80.0.2 is necessary to fix the MLPF installation. IOSurface.kext.zip
-
Well, you obviously need to undertake the same graphics tuning you did for Yosemite... Mobile HD4200/HD4400/HD4600 are not natively supported by OS X to date.

Unselect all fixes under DSDT fix mask.
