Phone Verification for FaceTime and iMessage

FaceTime and iMessage wont verify my phone number, I basically text and call through my mail… this is not the first time, I’ve reseted my Network settings and does not work. What can I do?

I’ve tried every single step of the link you provided, my last option is to call apple… which I don’t want to, seems to be like a software Issue. But now every time I try this message of “Activation Unsuccessful” keeps popping up in my screen multiple times repeatedly, I close de settings app to solve the problem. I know that completely resetting my iPhone will fix it, but there should be another way. What else can I do?

You do absolutely nothing, since you don't want to call Apple, they are the only one who can fix the issue. But go ahead and keep closing the settings to solve your problem.
