Hi, this isn't true as I did this myself just yesterday with a client's
iPhone which he purchased from someone else. In the mean time before he
activates his own service I have it set up with his apple id and it
works with iMessage. To help his battery not drain as fast while looking
for a non-existent service, I turned off cell data, but that's another
story.

Hi,
I found out that you can't use iMessage on a diactivated iPhone because
the eime number is different than that of an Ipod or Ipad so even though
you've told it to use an email, it still wants you to have a phone
number since it's a phone.
Face time will not work either.

I read on an Apple support site that activating iMessage on an iPhone
can take up to 24 hours if using an Apple Id. Why just for iPhone I
don't know; probably Apple expects you to use your phone number for
iMessage hence it being set up that way automatically when setting up an
iPhone.

Hi,
I have done this, and still iMessage says it's waiting for activation
in order to use iMessage.

Hello, yes you can use your phone without having it hooked up to a
phone number. Just sign in with your Apple ID.

Hi,
I am wondering if you can use iMessage on an iPhone 4s that is no
longer an
active phone? If so, how is this done?
