My imessage isn't activating after downloading ios7?

Ever since I downloaded iOS 7, every thing i try to turn on imessage it says "waiting for activation… " for awhile, and when I check back it says something like activation unsuccessful. I heard a lot of other people had this problem as well, I just don't know how to fix it. I have an iphone 4s. Also, my mom turned my phone service off (I got in trouble at school and that's my punishment) so does that have a factor in it not working? But before iOS7, I could use imessage, as well as all the other things besides MMS and phone calls, with Wi-Fi and had no problems. Thank you so much, and I appreciate your time.

Added (1). In the first sentence I meant *every time, not every thing.

It says Apple is working on a patch related to this? Try these steps http://www.justtext.com/messageboards/20131012193838.html

  • Why isn't my iphone 3GS activating? Ok, so my iPhone 3GS was unlocked on 5.1.1, and it was jailbroken. I wanted to factory unlock it, so it will be 6.0.1 and still unlock. When the people said my unlock was ready, they told me to update it to 6.0.1. When I tried setting it up and activate it, it won't work. It says we're unable to continue with your activation at this time. Any help would be appreciated.
  • Opinions about downloading IOS7? I have been putting off downloading IOS7 to my iphone because everyone I know who has downloaded it says its horrible.apparently it uses up loads of the battery life. Is that true? What are the pros and cons of IOS7 and what's your opinion of it? Should I download it or put it off for as long as possible?
  • My iMessage won't work on my iPhone 4S after ios7? So I updated to ios7 and now for some reason I can't send iMessages. It keeps saying "Not delivered". I can still receive iMessages but I just can't send them. I really need to know if it's something I can fix or do I have to bring it to the apple store.
  • Is is mandatory to back up your iPhone before downloading iOS7? Before downloading ios7 tomorrow, do I have to back up my iPhone 4S or do anything else? Is it mandatory?
