iMessage/Facetime activation error occured

I recently bought a used iPhone 6s it is unlocked and I am using it on Boost Mobile. When I turn my Facetime or iMessage on it will say its activating but after a minute or two it will say error occurred turn on to try again, I've tried turning my phone off and back on, I've tried turning on my airplane mode, and I've logged out of iCloud and logged back in NOTHING seems to work! So if anyone has any advice please give it to me! I'm beyond frustrated!

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 11.2.6

iMessage and Facetime activation error So I was trying to text with my friends and all of a sudden the notification says that I am signed out of iMessage for no reason. When I try to reactivate iMessage, it failed. I tried reactivating, restarting network, restarting my phone but nothing worked. Even if I did not activate my iMessage/Facetime, it still works but it needs full activation required. I needed to reactivate my iMessage and FaceTime. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks iOS running on 15.7.1 I am using iPhone 12 mini
