My iMessages on my iPod 5th gen just stopped working

On January 13, 2015 iMessages just stopped sending and receiving texts on my 5th generation iPod touch. I have re-installed, updated iOS and everything else I can think of to reset iMessages including signing out and signing back in. Still doesn't work. I'm at a loss.

I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:

iOS version 6.1.6



I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.



Here is what finally worked:



1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On

2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On

3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears

4) Settings > Messages > Sign In
