I called Apple.Like everyone else, I was advised to reboot my phone. It did not help. Then they told me to call AT&T. They confirmed that their servers were overloaded and gave me a special phone number for activation. I called it, but the system replied that the phone was activated, and nothing happened.
I changed the SIM card, but that didn't help either.
Only by connecting to iTunes did I manage, after several attempts, to activate the phone - in fact, it updated to iOS 11.1 and rolled back.
As often happens after the iPhone,there is only one true solution to the problem: just try it until it works out. You can connect to iTunes. Otherwise, one thing remains: to wait until the load on the server falls.
Have you had any problems activating your iPhone X?
