Hi Youngmessi10,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Since your messages appear in green, iMessage and FaceTime may be disabled or temporarily unavailable. We'd recommend starting with the guidance in If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone or iPad. Below are a couple sections which might be particularly helpful.

If you have issues when you try to receive a FaceTime call after you set up a new device, you can also update your FaceTime settings."

If any error messages appear during those steps, what do they say?
All the best.
