IMessage on iPhone 5 not activating?
I just got a new iPhone 5 for my daughter, but for some reason, the iMessage doesn't work. It will always just say "waiting for activation". I've tried activating it in many ways, but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions? I should mention that the phone doesn't have a number or plan yet, is that necessary for iMessage?
Because you don't have a number on that phone. Shell need to download text free. IF she doesn't have a text plan on her phone she can't text at all but can use an app so make sure you make an apple account for her
- Why is my iphone 6 not activating with Straight Talk? I bought an iphone 6 at the Apple store in London, so it's unlocked. Straight Talk is my provider. They sent me a sim card for it and called them and they transferred over my service, but when I put in my sim card, I get no service. It gives me a message that says phone is activated, but I have no service. I even waited over 4 hours. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Unfortunately it is after business hours and I can't call them until tomorrow. Is there anything that I can do to activate it now? I've set up the iPhone and backed it up and turned off my other activated phone that this one is replacing and it is still not activating. Any ideas?
