Why won't my imessage work with ios7?

I updated my iphone 5 to ios7, then ios7.0.02. My imessage and FaceTime have not worked since then. When I try to activate imessage, it just stays stuck on "waiting for activation." Neither my number or email shoes up, and when I try to sign onto my Apple ID it just tells me to reset my network settings.

Reset my network settings dozens of times -both with imessage on or off, any combination I can think of. Still doesn't activate. Turned off/on imessage again, still nothing. Turned off the phone, waited a while, did hard resets, etc, still nothing.

Even wiped my phone to factory settings and restored through iCloud. Still not activating.

I was even told to do some combination of settings on airplane mode, not working. Changed my DNS on my Wi-Fi to 8.8.8.8 which seems to be a popular answer. Not working.

It is working on my ipad but this does me no good as I don't have free texting. Is this happening to anyone else? How to I fix it?

Added (1). "Ios 7 sucks" yes, I know that.

How to fix this iphone5/ios7 bug?

So on my home screen of my iphone 5 on ios 7 the bar overlaps with what seems like an old status bar. Like an old time, service, battery amount shows behind the current one so it's hard to read. I have restarted my phone twice but it's still there. Someone help me?

I attached a photo of what it looks like.

What should i do if my imessages won't send?

Hi, i have an iphone 4 and have recently updated to IOS 7. I seems that every time to go to send an imessage to one of my friends who also has imessage it won't send, and they can't send imessages to me. I have gone to settings and double checked that my imessage is turned on.
I have tried all of the dumb people stuff like turning my phone on and off again, and turning my imessge on a and off again, but still nothing happens. I'm still able to type a message and it begins to send but won't deliver.

My iPhone 5c connection is so slow

So I recently got the iPhone 5c from T-mobile and it was great the first two days, the internet connection was super fast and everything.
Then it went all super slow, I can't even watch YouTube videos cause its that slow or load some pages!
Also, on the top left corner where it's says its signal strength reads: LTE or sometimes 4g. I thought these meant it was supposed to be better?

Can you buy the new iPhones from Sprint & activate it with Virgin Mobile?

Ok, so I was interested in purchasing the new iPhone 5c. But Virgin Mobile sells it for way too much money since it's a prepaid company. Anyways, could I buy the 5c from Sprint and would it still work with V. Mobile? If not, does any retailer have a trade in program where you can trade in your old V. Mobile phone (I have an s2) for cash credit towards the new iPhone?
