IMessage and Facetime "waiting for activation" on iPhone4s (Brazil)
I've had an iPhone 3GS for 3 years, had iMessage working perfectly.
On march 16th, i bought an iPhone 4S from my supported carrier, TIM. Since then, I cannot activate my phone number neither in iMessage nor in Facetime.
If I log in my Apple ID, both work fine, but under my email address.
I've been searching for answers since then, tried everything - Date/Time adjustments, reset network config, set up as new phone, restore from iTunes backup, restore from iCloud backup, activate/deactivate iCloud account, setting up my phone number under my Apple ID, even DFU mode, but nothing seems to work.
I reached my carrier, who said there are no issues on my phone line, and thus it must be something that should be solved by Apple.
Sometimes, just trying to turn on iMessage or Facetime will give me an instant popup message on the iPhone saying "iMessage Activation - An error occurred during activation. Try again". If I click "OK" and try to activate it, I get "Waiting for activation" under the iMessage on/off button for about 4 to 5 hours before it says again that my iPhone has not been verifyed and I must try again.
This has been going on for a week now, and I sure hope someone can help me solve this thing.
By the way, I'm running iOS 5.1 on 4S, as I was running iOS 5.1 on the 3GS before.TIM
Como muitas pessoas, assim como eu, também não conseguem ativar o Imessage, resolvi compartilhar a solução a seguir, a qual ainda não tentei.
É da época dos problemas com o Facetime, mas dado que o sistema de ativação é semelhante ao iMessage, vale a pena tentar, visto que é a solução mais coerente que vi até hoje.
O texto a seguir foi Publicado em 22 Dezembro 2010 por Fábio Kohn,

http://pt-br.paperblog.com/solucao-definitiva-como-ativar-o-facetime-na-tim-1650 48/
ABRE ASPAS:
Em menos de 3 meses de cliente da TIM, foram 8 protocolos de atendimento direto com eles devido a problemas distintos e 3 chamados junto a ANATEL
incluindo um deles o da ativação do FaceTime, nada adiantou, sempre alegavam que o problema estava na Apple e não na operadora,
Não vou nem descrever o fato de os atendentes da TIM no *144 não saberem nem do que se trata “FaceTime”.
pra terem uma ideia, ao falar que o aparelho era um iPhone, a primeira pergunta: – De qual marca Senhor?
Foi quando fui até uma loja física da TIM, relatei rapidamente meu problema no pré-atendimento e foi quando veio o gerente da loja,
começou a falar comigo e sacou o iPhone 4 dele do bolso dizendo que ele teve exatamente o mesmo problema.
Foi quando ele em poucos minutos me explicou o que eu deveria fazer, vamos então a solução:
Primeiramente como funciona a ativação do FaceTime? Quando você ativa ela, o aparelho envia um SMS internacional para o servidor,
onde contem armazena seu número, e então o servidor lhe envia de volta uma autorização para utilização do serviço,
é ai onde esta o problema da TIM, alguns números da TIM o servidor reconhece como número fixo (caso de números que começam com o número 6),
e em outros ele simplesmente desconfigura a formatação que deveria ser +55 (11) XXXX-XXXX para alguma outra que não consegue identificar o código de área
fazendo com que a autorização NUNCA chegue no seu aparelho.
Existem duas soluções para isso, uma extremamente rápida solicitando a troca de seu número, e outra para quem não quer abrir mão do número
que leva até 05 dias para resolver, ambas garantidas pelo gerente da loja que funcionam e aqui estou eu como prova viva .
Solução 1 – Rápida, solicitação de troca do número.
- Ligue no atendimento da TIM no *144 direto do seu celular.
- No menu, escolha a opção 1 (confirmação de atendimento direto do aparelho) e logo em seguida a opção 3 (atendimento personalizado).
- Ao escolher a opção 3, será transferido para um dos atendentes.
- Confirme seus dados com ele, e de maneira muito simples e direta sem muita explicação faça a seguinte solicitação:
1.Solicite a troca de seu número.
2.Provavelmente ela irá perguntar o motivo: Relate que você precisa utilizar um serviço do qual não aceita números de celular começando com o número X (fale o número do seu).
3.Ela irá confirmar, e te passará algumas opções de número, diga que você tem preferência por números que começam com 7 ou 8.
4.Escolha seu número, ela efetuando a troca e finalizando o atendimento, espere alguns minutos que pode levar até 2 horas, desligue o aparelho, ligue ele de novo, e realize a ativação do FaceTime.
5.Pronto, em até 2 horas terá seu FaceTime ativado.
OBS: Não necessariamente seu número tenha que começar com 6 para ter esse problema, como disse, existem números que dão problema na hora do recebimento da autorização. Como saber se você vai pegar um número que funcione? Não da para saber, a única certeza que você tem, é que o que você esta não funciona! Por isso, faça essa opção por sua conta e risco!
Solução 2 – Um pouco mais demorada, mantendo seu número.
- Ligue no atendimento da TIM no *144 direto do seu celular.
- No menu, escolha a opção 1 (confirmação de atendimento direto do aparelho) e logo em seguida a opção 3 (atendimento personalizado).
- Ao escolher a opção 3, será transferido para um dos atendentes.
- Confirme seus dados com ele, e de maneira muito simples solicite falar no atendimento especial de iPhone. Ele irá te transferir:
1.No atendimento de iPhone, relate rapidamente seu problema de ativação do FaceTime.
2.Solicite a abertura de um protocolo para ativação do FaceTime em sua linha, pois devido a sua linha pertencer as que estão com problema de ativação, você não consegue ativar.
3.Diga para ele colocar na abertura do chamado exatamente isso: “Solicitação de ativação de FaceTime para o número “tal” que apresenta falha na ativação do serviço devido a ser reconhecido como número FIXO impossibilitando o recebimento de SMS internacional requisitado para a ativação. Solicitamos a liberação e confirmação desde terminal como número móvel”.
4.Finalizando o chamado, aguarde até 05 dias úteis, sempre que for tentar realizar a ativação dentro dos 05 dias desligue o aparelho, ligue novamente e tente ativar. Nesse intervalo de 05 dias pode acontecer de ativar nos primeiros 15 minutos ou até completar o prazo.
OBS: Essa opção foi a realizada pelo gerente da loja TIM relatada na história acima, dica dele inclusive de o que colocar no chamado para a solução
relatada no passo 3.
Sempre anote o número dos respectivos protocolos, eles são a prova de que você fez a solicitação, caso em até 05 dia ainda assim não conseguir realizar a ativação recomendo a solução 01.
Essa dica é valida e testada com a operadora TIM com 100% de solução em ambas as dicas, porém caso alguém consiga com o mesmo método em outra operadora deixe a confirmação ai também! -
Imessaging and facetime "waiting for activation"... all imessages come to ipad! grrrrrrrr!
i just upgraded both ipad and iphone 4s to ios 6. now only my ipad gets imessaging! iphone imessaging says "waiting authentication". how does one fix this? i thought Apple was supposed to more problem free!
There is nothing to do. That is a status message that appears because you do not have a cellular network data connection. Since you only have Wi-Fi the iMessages will not be associated with your phone number. There is more information on "Waiting for Activation" at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268
Note the following quotation from that link:
You can still activate iMessage and FaceTime with your Apple ID when these status messages appear. You can see that you've activated FaceTime and iMessage with your Apple ID by tapping:
Settings > FaceTime > You can be reached by FaceTime at:
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage at: -
IOS 8 iMessage and FaceTime "Waiting for Activation"
I just upgraded my iPhone 5 and iPad to iOS 8 and now I can't get my iMessage and FaceTime to work. When I try to send messages (sms or iMessage) from my phone I get a "Not Delivered" message. I've tried resetting my network settings, I've also messed with toggling on and off the iMessage and FaceTime buttons in settings, and I've also tried setting up my iMessage and FaceTime when on wifi, airplane mode (with wifi) and using my cellular network.
Even though my phone is not registering these changes, I'm getting a popup message on my laptop saying "Email Addresses Added to 'iPhone,'" so it seems like the laptop is recognizing that I'm getting hooked up to iMessage but my phone just work. Anyone else having iMessage or FaceTime problems? do I need to downgrade back to iOs 7?If you still got this issue, I just solved it on my wife's 5s. After reading a different blog that suggested turning off FT from the Phone settings and then reset. But my wife's phone didn't even had the FT option under settings > Phone so I just did step 2 and it worked.
Step 1) Goto: Settings > FaceTime and turn off
Step 2) Goto: Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
After the phone has restarted, search for FaceTime and have fun.
Remember that apple would prefer you are connected to a WIFI source. -

My imessage is working when im signed into my apple id butmy phone number is still not activated, my imessage still says waiting for activation how do i fix it ?
Go to Settings > Messages and turn iMessage OFF.
Then go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings. Your phone will restart. You will not lose any data, but you will have to re-enter any Wi-Fi network passwords.
Once the phone has re-started and you have a network connection (either 3G or Wi-Fi), turn iMessage back ON. -

Why does my phones iMessage keep saying "waiting for activation"
Why does my iPhone's iMessage keep saying "waiting for activation" when I turn on my iMessage
It's waiting for you to reply to a confirmation email that was sent when you added that email address to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
The email is sent immediately. If you have reason to believe it was not sent, tap the blue circled i then either resend the validation email, or remove it. -
Don't understand why my Imessaging stopped working. If I go to settings messages and check out Imessaging it just says waiting for activation.
Change the DNS servers of the wifi network to 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
Go to settings>general>date&time> set automaticly , turn it on if it wasn't
then settings>general>reset>reset network settings
restart the phone -
Lease help me to activate imessage. I now have iPhone 5s and can't activate imessage. I've tried all the normal stuff but nothing is working
i had this problem with my iphone 5c and sorted it contacting apple.
have you tried resetting the network settings? it doesnt delete anything and should work. if it then changes to "waiting for activation", instead of the error message, then leave it for 24 hours (leaving your phone and wifi on) and it should activate and work.
for me, this didnt work after 24 hours. i then backed up my phone and reset it and set it up as a new iphone then restored it using my backup from the computer and it now works -
Facetime and imessage of iphone waiting for activation
facetime and imessage of iphone waiting for activation
okay, i have been having problems with both facetime and imessage on my iphone and decided to look onto it today and after some searching around i managed to fix it!! this is what i did:
Went into settings, clicked on messages, scrolled down to " send & receive' and made sure the number shown was mine. Clicked on "send & receive" then clicked on " use your apple ID for message", this is to make sure my apple ID is correct and if it isn't this where you will change it. Backed out and went into "general", scrolled all the way to the bottom and clicked on "reset" then clicked on "reset network settings". I also went to:
https://appleid.apple.com. Clicked on the "Manage my ID" button. Make sure your email address and phone numbers are correct. Then click the "Save Changes" button. I didn't change anything but as soon as I clicked the "Save Changes" button, my iMessages instantly activated.
Doing these two things worked for me and hope it works for you all out there as i initially thought it was a network problem and it does not seem to be one but it does seem to be an apple thing... -

HI,
i upgraded my iPhone 5 to I.o.s 7 last night and I was sending texts from an email address which I didn't want. Now I've taken off my email address yet my iMessage has been stuck on 'wAiting for activation'?
EEven whe I was texting via my Apple ID, it was showing this message?
CAn anyone help?Hello, I can understand how frustrating this is.
I spoke to Apple just now, and they're aware. There's no solution, except to wait it out. Because of the 5s launch and iOS 7, Apple's servers are supposedly being hammered. A more senior Apple rep thought there will be delay up to 48 hours.
I have a 5s, and so does my friend. We both have the same issue as you.
