Hello - my iPhone 6s got replaced day before yesterday with a new phone. I restored from iCloud however now all my iMessages come from an iCloud address rather than my number. I was unable to tick my number when I went to change under the send receive settings. Any fix for this?

On a related note, find my friends doesn't show my brothers location (my only friend on it). Any fix?

Thanks!

Does he have it installed? Also does he have location services turned on?

Can you post a screenshot (block the number on it if it appears)
 
Try logging out of anything requiring an Apple ID.

iCloud, App store, iMessage, et.al.

Then log back in and see if you can select your number for iMessages.
