Hi oarabile112,


If Messages won't turn on fully, try toggling it off and then back on again.

Turn off and restart iMessage and FaceTime

Go to Settings > Messages and turn off iMessage.
Go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off FaceTime.
Restart your device:
iPhone
iPad
iPod touch
Turn iMessage and FaceTime back on.


If it still sticks at verifying at that point, test on a known good network. If you're on Wi-Fi, try cellular, or vice versa. Additionally, Messages can take up to 24 hrs to activate.


Should the problem persist after that, contact Apple Support for additional assistance.


Take care.
