iMessage not activating I am having problem activating imessage & facetime. It is constantly showing "Waiting for activation" & "An error occured during activation of iMessage, please try later". I have tried all methods to activate iMessage( turning on & off imessage, signing out of apple id, network reset, hard reset etc.). But none has worked for me. Please help me figure out how to activate iMessage in my phone. I am using XS Max 256GB physical dual SIM variant and my ios is updated to latest version.
