# Simple Main Logic Board (MLB) Serial Generator Script by TheRacerMaster
# Based off the work of Hanger1, AGuyWhoIsBored & Alien:X
# NOTE: This is a simple script that doesn't do any checking of other SMBIOS values. It needs valid SMBIOS data which includes the following:
# - Valid SmUUID value in Clover config.plist under SMBIOS (generated using uuidgen)
# - ROM value set to UseMacAddr0 in Clover config.plist (uses MAC address of your first NIC as ROM value)
# - Properly formatted serial number (doesn't have to be a real one, just formatted properly) in Clover config.plist under SMBIOS
#    - Don't use a generic serial number (such as Clover's default)! It needs to be at least semi-unique.
#    - Try using a generated serial number that isn't real (but formatted correctly) from Clover Configurator, Chameleon Wizard, etc.
#    - You can check if a serial number is real here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
#
# After getting a value, insert it in Clover config.plist under RtVariables -> MLB, then reboot
# Try logging into iMessage. If you get a customer code, call Apple and go through the process.
# iMessage should work after going through the customer support process.
#
# Changelog:
# Version 1.1 - Add user input support; you can now input a serial number (as an argument: ./simpleMLB.sh XXXXXXXXXXXX) and the script will use that to generate a MLB
# Version 1.2 - Add more input checks for valid serial number and working internet connection; added support for generating 13 character MLB (does it if serial number is 11 characters)
# Version 1.3 - Fixed some bugs; removed internet connection requirement; now, the script gets week and year numbers from the serial number itself (more accurate than random generation)
# Version 1.4 - Added debug mode which prints info about the serial number and each step of the MLB generation process

# If user input is valid, use that instead of the serial number of the current machine from IORegistry
