Hey tavz91,
If you are getting an error when attempting to use FaceTime, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Get help signing in to FaceTime, Game Center, Messages - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

Does the same thing for FaceTime
Kyle Caldwell wrote:
So..any suggestions? Just to note, it is definitely without a doubt sim free and unlocked to all networks.
Thanks in advance.
"SIM Free" does not mean the same thing as "Unlocked". SIM Free means you can use it with any carrier, but it will lock to the first carrier whose SIM you activate it with. The ONLY source for truly unlocked phones is direct from an Apple store or Apple Online. -

I have an iPhone 5 and updated it to iOS7 last night but now I can't use iMessage or FaceTime as it says "waiting for activation" As well as that, it won't let me use my phone number to do iMessage or FaceTime it will only let me use my apple ID which I don't want to do.
Thank you for replying. Yes I deleted the old email address..

Back up, Erase all content and settings, Restore iPhone (downloads fresh iOS), restore from backup. Should fix. You will not lose texts, etc.

Why does it say waiting for activation under facetime switch
why cant i access facetime and why does it say waiting for activation under the facetime switch?
Hi,
If you have a Jabber ID used in iChat and you add a Buddy the Buddy gets an Authorisation Request invite.
iChat sends this Invite once.
The Buddy cannot be properly in your Buddy List until they accept.
However other Jabber Apps constantly sends the Authorisation Requests again and again until the person Accepts or Declines.
In iChat if the Buddy misses the Request the Buddy list is left hanging with the "Awaiting" message.
GoogleTalk and Facebook IDs ware valid Jabber names if you have Enable "Talk" on Google an "Chat" on Facebook.
Try Deleting the Buddy from the list (Highlight and then Backspace key)
Then Add them when you know they will see the request.
(Or get a Third Party Jabber app and run that after adding their name until they reply)

Hi debinarizona,
I see the Handoff setting under "Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps".
Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity

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. -
