The issue I am dealing with is that iMessage won't let me select my phone number, so I can be able to use it instead of my email address. It shows it already selected (but gay) after i enter my Apple ID in but afterwards it doesn't show it at all, only my Apple ID.
iPhone 4, iOS 6
I had this problem.
Resolved it by
1. Turn off iMessage and if FaceTime is activated turn it off also.
2. Turn iMessage back on first. Phone number and Apple ID were both selected then. Reactivate FaceTime afterwards. When FaceTime was activated first imessage problem remained.
No need to turn off iPhone if my case.
how long did u wait before it worked?
Thank you, Cheonweb. This worked:
Turn iMessage OFF. Restart. Turn iMessage ON and wait to verifying.
Your number MUST be grey with a tick mark besides.
