I can't see to get my iPhone 8 to fully activate on verizon. MyVZW recognizes the device online but the device itself fails to activate after the billing zip code/last four digits of your social security, screen. I can no longer make calls on my old iPhone 6 even on wifi. Very strange

I had that issue as well (iPhone 8 Plus). I solved it by first going through activation on my landline, and then shutting the 8 down, and turning it back on. It then successfully activated. Good luck!
