If I get this right, you've ported your phone number to AT&T with the purchase of the iPhone. That is considered opening your own account under your name. Your brother's account is not ported to AT&T unless you used his SS# instead of yours. Your brother still has his account under Verizon Wireless, all you did was use your cell phone number to when you opened your own AT&T account.
If you don't want to use your Verizon Wireless phone #, my suggestion is to call AT&T customer service and explain that you want a new phone number instead of the ported Verizon number.

Okay, so I lost my phone and i deleted everything on it via findmyiphone because i didn't have a password, well i recovered it and restored it from my last backup, my iMessage stopped working with my phone number and only works with my email.

Hello Jonahfromnm,
You may need to unlink, then relink your phone number with your Apple ID.

Hi, uttam_june15.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I am not sure if you are unable to activate iMessage or that your phone number is not registering with iMessage. However, here are the troubleshooting articles that cover both scenarios.

How do I fix my iMessage to work with my phone number?

Two days ago, my iMessage randomly decided to stop working. I am abroad in Asia right now so I have been using iMessage to keep in touch with friends and family at home (US) when I am connected through wifi.
My issue is that under the "Send and Recieve" in the iMessage settings, my phone number is not listed. Originally, it was greyed out and not selected but after going to an Apple store here and rebooting the settings, the phone number disappeared all together. I have turned off/on wifi, airplane mode, imessage, facetime, date/time, etc. I know the Apple ID is registered with my phone number because when I choose to sign out of my Apple ID and the sign back in under the iMessage settings, my phone number and email are selected to be used. But when I click Next, only my email is shown.
I will be abroad at least a few more weeks and would really like for it to work here again. I'm afraid it won't work when I'm back in the US as well. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Correct, my cellular data is currently off. I don't think this will solve my problem because I was able to use iMessage before without my data and only on wifi. If nothing else works, I will try this. But I would like to try to find a solution that doesn't require me using data.

How do I get my iMessage to connect with my phone number

I try and try to connect my iMessage with my number on my iPhone but its set up with my email what do I do?

How do I shut off receiving phone and text messages when I a out of the country but instill want to send and receive emails emails

How do I shut off receiving phone and text messages when I am out of the country. I still want to be able to email and receive email on wifi

Enable Airplane mode followed by turning on wi-fi access.

Why won't my iMessages go through to my friend but works with others? iMessage is activated on both phones

I can iMessage friends and they receive my messages except for one friend who has not been receiving my iMessages sent to him. If I turn off iMessages he receives my text messages. I can receive iMessages from him and reply but I can not initiate the iMessage. My iMessages are going out successfully to others. I have done a hard restart, turned iMessage off and back on, and deleted his contact info and added it back to my contacts.

Is there a not sent indicator on the message initiated by you, or is the message sent but not received?
If no problem with anyone else and the only problem is on the recipient's end, doubtful the problem is on your end.
What has the recipient done?

How can I get my iMessage to work with my phone number instead of my e-mail?

My number is just light gray, and I can't press on it.
- I hope someone can help me with it.

hi
Have you looked at Settings > Messages > Send & Recieve?
Check out start a new Converation from to?
If you uncheck any emails it should only be linked to your mobile number?

TS3899 I have an new iphone5. I have no problem with email when I have web access. How do I send and receive email over the phone when no there is no web access?

my email works fine when I have web access. How do I receive emails when I am just using the phone with no web access?

For email you you need an Internet connection and that requires either wifi or cellular data.

Send and Receive in iMessage only shows my AppleID and not my phone number. How do I add the phone number to where I can be reached?

Send and Recieve in iMessage only shows my Apple ID and not my phone number and I can't send nor receive messages from any other phones except iPhones. How do I get my phone number to show up so that I can send and receive SMS text messages and not just iPhone iMessage texts between only other iPhones?

Where is the Start new conversations from??? When I go to Send & Receive, there is no where to add or set to receive at my phone number. There is only a setting to Add Another Email and my Apple Id is already there. No place or way to add a phone number to receive at. I also have a lasting Waiting for activation... under iMessage ON but no place for my phone number although it shows up as My number under Phone.

2 iPhones in my house, both on the same Apple ID. Just got iPad mini, want to use iMessage with my phone number, but iPad only picks up other more recently added number (not mine) when I go to message settings. Is there a way to default to other number?

Hi guys, so we have 2 iPhones in my house, both on the same Apple ID so that my mum and I can share everything. I have just got an iPad mini, and would like to use iMessage on it with my phone number, but the iPad only picks up other more recently added number (not mine, my mums) when I go to message settings. Is there a way to make the iPad default to other number?

Problem with iMessage contacts being separated by phone number and email

Hi all, sorry if this thread is a duplicate of another, I've seen some that are similar but none seem to match the exact situation I'm having.
Me and 3 other friends have a group iMessages thread where we talk to each other.
We each have several devices: ie. I have a Macbook Air and an iPhone 5S, one has a Macbook, an iPhone 4, and an iPad, etc etc. Essentially we all have a mix of devices which we can use to read the thread, all using the same Apple ID and with our phone number added.
The problem is, every so often and for no discernible reason, someone will send a message and it'll start a new thread: this usually happens on my iPhone but occasionally it happens on my Macbook. Sometimes, what has become 2 threads on my phone will be only one thread on my Macbook, and vice versa. Same applies to my friends. However, sometimes what has become 2 threads for them is still only one thread for someone else, as though some of us have gone "out of sync".
When you compare the contacts in the 2 threads, they are IDENTICAL (can't stress this enough, the contacts themselves have not been duplicated), however when I look at the same contact from one thread, their phone number will be highlighted in blue. In the other thread, their email address will be highlighted in blue.
Therefore the problem seems to be that devices are unable to bring together an iMessage sent from a contact's phone with one sent from their email. If the information for both email and phone number are correctly filled in for a contact, why can Messages/iMessage not realise it is the same person and bring them together?
The problem is, sometimes a message sent from the same device will first be sent from the phone number, then the next will be from the email address (or rather, everyone else's devices are seeing it that way, they're not doing anything different than usual, just typing in the thread and pressing send). Its as though the device is choosing one then the other, seemingly at random, and iMessage doesn't seem to be able to add them to the already existing thread but instead creates a new one as the "source' is different. Is this behaviour intended? Surely it can't be.
Is this something to do with the "You can be reached by iMessage at" setting in iOS. One of us needs to be reached by both his email and phone number so we can't just all turn off the email on our phones/iPads for example.
Is this a known problem? Is there something we can do about it? Is it ever going to be fixed?
We've tried other messaging programs but they're just not as well integrated as Messages, and obviously being able to switch between my phone and my Macbook is hugely convenient.
Any help would be much appreciated, we're now at the stage where we have 2 iMessage threads and a backup LINE group chat for when things are completely unfollowable due to every other message going to the duplicate thread.
Thanks in advance.

When you go to Settings>Messages do you see your Apple ID at the top? Also, when you go to Settings>Messages>Receive At do you see both your email address and your phone number listed?

My iMessage will not activate with my phone number when I recieved a new apple ID.

I made a new apple ID because my old one would not let me download any new apps from the app store.
Everything works great with my new appleID EXCEPT it will not let me use imessage with my phone number.
I have tried network resets, turning on/off the restrictions, everything.
Plus... if and when i get iMessage to verify with my phone number.. How do I connect my Macbook, iPad, and iPhone to all sync with my NEW apple ID and get my iMessage working on all three of them with my phone number?

IMessage is not recognising my phone number

Myphone number in iMessage has greyed out after installing iOS8 and is not sending iMessagees.
also my wife's iPone rings at the same time as mine

Hi faithmeg,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing, and/or what you are seeing when you try to login on your new iPhone 5s. Usually, when FaceTime/iMessage is used with a phone number, that phone number and the Apple ID are linked, as outlined in the following article:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
If you are having issues signing in or activating FaceTime/iMessage on your new iPhone, you may also find the troubleshooting outlined in this article helpful:
