Hello!
I'm having issues with the iMessage/FaceTime activation with my phone number. I tried reinserting the SIM card, getting both option off, restarting the phone and logging on both again and nothing.
Anyone can help me with this? Thanks in advance
iPhone XR, iOS 14
Have you reinserted the SIM as suggested?
Do you have access to another WiFi network where you can try? That has worked for several people.
Try a restart.
Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Try a forced restart.
If necessary
Do a backup and try a factory reset. Then restore from your backup.
Backup - Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup.

Does the phone number show in Settings/Messages and Settings/FaceTime?
See if anything here helps.
I added my number and still “loading” when I go to iMessage and FaceTime as well.
That's the message that shows up everyday
It’s supposed to “expired” and no longer shows. Only my emails.
Did you add the number to your Apple ID? What do you mean by expired?
