iMessage can't seem to verify my number, its the same with Facetime
All it says is verifying number, and as a result it doesn't work
Any help? or someone else getting this?
iPhone 4
OK...I've fixed my issue:
Go to: Settings>iMessage> switch off.
Go to: Settings>Facetime> switch off.
I noticed that in: Settings>Phone> that "My number" was unknown (go check yours now)
When I tried to click on the "Unknown" to input the number...it would not allow me to.
Go to: Settings>Airplane mode> Turn off. Wait a moment, then switch back on and go back to: Settings>Phone>
You should be allowed to input your number including country code.
Check to see if "My Number" has been updated.
Go to: Settings>iMessage> switch back on.
Go to: Settings>Facetime> switch back on.
Phone number is verified in both Facetime and iMessage.
Hope it works for you!

Try quitting the SETTINGS APP and re-launching it. This worked for me.
Resetting my iPhone settings fixed the problem for me. Thanks for the tip.
followed the above
turn off imessage
reset network settings
turn on imessage
worked
thanks
solved my problem just now - thx jayeecordero
My iPhone doesn't wanna connect to imassage .
Ok, so this morning I was playing in the Settings app and decided to try what will happen if I turn iMessage OFF, so I did, and then turned it back on and my phone number kept on saying "Verifying"... it took over 12 hours with no luck!!
Took ou the SIM card and nothing, quit app setting and nothing... so here's what I did and it worked
- Turn off iMessage
- Turn off FaceTime
- Make sure your "My Number" is set correctly (Mine was set as +962 "didn't work" so I decided to change it to 00 962 "which worked")
- Airplane mode, turn it ON
- Settings -> General -> Rest -> Rest Network settings
- wait for the phone to come back to life
- Turn On iMessage (and it will verify in seconds)
- Turn On FaceTime (and it will verify in seconds)
Quit all of your apps just in case and I am not sure how this thins of "Set date to Automatic" but mine was already set!
Good luck guys and Thank you everybody's sharing for their experience 😀
The resetting the network solved my problems thank you 😀
Thnx a lot...worked like a charm!!

Just go to settings> turn Restrictions on> turn FaceTime off and then on>check to see if facetime and imessage is fixed >turn restrictions off
No dice... same problem, stuck verifying.
Thanks!!! After speaking with Apple and Verizon and 2 days worth of trying, ur fix is now my gratitude!
Same problem.
Also have it with FaceTime. Phone number doesn't get verified only email.
I've tried practially everything!!!!!
Tried that before and still have iMessages and FaceTime stuck on verifying number.
Close the settings app completely then open it back up again. Then go back to iMessage setting and the phone number should work for iMessage.
iMessage stuck on verifying my phone number
