Since updating to IOS 9.1 my Iphone 4S frequently displays a popup warning from facetime and imessage
"Your carrier may charge for SMS messages used to activate iMessage"
I never used this feature and have no intension to. both facetime and imessage are deactivated but i keep getting this warnings.
How can I turn them off or disable the warnings its driving me nuts.
iPhone 4S, iOS 9.1, null
Try the following method, I found it myself:
1. Go to Settings - iCloud.
2. Click on your's account first and last name.
You will see "Contact information", "Password & Security", "Devices", "Payment".
3. Click on "Contact information".
4. Add your phone number. Verify it. Its status will change to "Verified".
That's all. Now you will not get these nasty iMessage dialogs.
Sounds good advice but when I go to iMessages it's greyed-out and won't open.
Try settings - carrier - set to manual

Nope, I already had it in manual. I have tried everything but I keep getting the annoying message all the time :(
In manual- still no good - worse (if possible)
Yes, we know what the message says, as has been explained over and over in this thread. Start reading it from the top.
Im getting the same message too! Did you manage to resolve this issu?

Why don't you read the other posts in this thread and find out?
Thanks. Of course I had try all the possible solutions mentioned in the thread (plus googling around for other inputs) before I asked again. Because it didn't work.
your message is not helpfull
hey same here in mobitel !! are u still off that features?
It reconfirms the activation every couple of days. The only way to stop those texts to the UK is to log out of iMessage and not use it.
Hey! Thankz for your advice but! Is there a any way i can keep active imessage option and not spends credits on every 2 days!!!
Switch to a carrier that is an Apple partner. It's only non-supported carriers that charge for the activation messages. The message doesn't even appear on the account with a supported carrier.
Try these trouble-shooting steps:
