I recently followed the Vanilla OS X AMD guide on this site to create a Hackintosh, overall everything went pretty smoothly, booted and installed with no hiccups, even got it to multi boot with windows and linux. The operating system boots just fine, logs into the desktop with no problems, and has pretty much all functionality, recognizes my GPU and all that. The problem I'm having is when I try to log into an iCloud account via system settings I get the error "This Apple ID is valid but not and iCloud account." iMessage and FaceTime give activation failed errors. Oddly enough, I am able to sign in to the App Store and download apps, as well as iTunes. I followed all the steps in the open core desktop guide, fixing iServices section, probably generated and tried 15 different SMBIOS serial #s/UUIDs. I've been working on this for quite a while now and am getting frustrated, I actually fresh installed this 3 times with different platform IDs, file systems etc in hopes of finding the perfect combination. I'm running macOS Catalina 1.15.4 with open core 0.5.8, my specs are as follows:
AMD Ryzen 3 2200G
MSi B350M GAMING PRO
AMD RX570 4GB
512GB Samsung NVME SSD, 1TB WD HDD(macOS is on this one)
Realtek RTL111 internet, connected via wired connection, shows up as En0
16(2x8)GB of 2400Mhz DDR4 RAM
Let me know if you need any more information to diagnose the problem.
