[Q] how to edit my phone number in the SIM - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi -
Is there someway we can edit "my phone number" that is shown in the Settings > About Phone > Status? It shows blank right now for me. Are there any phones (other than iPhones), which use a microsim which can do this atleast. Any App to do this? I am on stock and unrooted..

Caller ID hacking

Is there any software available for TyTn II by which i can change or disable my number to others? Please rep.
settings/ blue phone icon/ services/ caller id/ get settings/ select who you want to see your, some, all, etc... No software required. Hope this helps
Within the UK you can dial 141 before the number.
This way you can set individual contacts as private.

That would be to easy. Don't you have a more complicated solution, or maybe some over priced software you know of that would work?
My phone doesn't have those settings.

They probably need to be enabled via a reg edit or advanced config
depending on the net work there is a code that you can dial in front of the number that would block your number from showing up on the caller IDs of other phones.
ex
for t mobile is #31#
for att is *67
for sprint its normally blocked by defualt
verizon i believe is *67
but if there was a program that would allow you to change or spoof your caller ID among other people it would be nice to have

Software to change your number ...
NO .... but there are services you can use to change how your number appears to others. "It's called Spoofing"
Software to disable your number .... (where are you located?)
No need for software .. chinese chicken's "how to" is correct (if you live in the states.) You also have the option to press the "green dial key" as though you were going to make a call, then "Menu", then "Options", then "Services", select "Caller ID" and hit "Get Settings", and then select either "everyone", "no one" or "only to contacts", and ok. soft reset to ensure the settings will stick. Hope this helps

How to access connection parameters?

May be that's just me and I'm dumb. But if I go to parameters/connection/ I get the only alternative to chose my provider for automatic setting.
The only time I was allowed to access the usual WinMo connection setting menu (creating, editing a connection) was at the start when I couldn't connect to the internet. I got an error message with an option to check parameters. And then I got the usual full WinMo menu. I selected the right connection and now all is fine... but I don't know how to go back to this menu!
TF3D Settings tab > More > Phone > Network tab ?
Yup! Thanks

[Q] Changing Phone Number in Settings-> About Phone -> Status

When I check the Phone number in Settings-> About Phone -> Status, it shows wrong number. Could anyone please let me know if I can edit this?
Thanks in advance!!!
To get your number to show in the status what you will have to do it go to contacts -> More -> Settings -> Own numbers, then put your information in there then it will show up on the status page and also on the Kies Application when you connect your phone.

Hi,
Can anyone PLEASE tell me where I can find the cell broadcast settings on an HTC one dual sim? I keep getting about 20 messages per hour from number 50 that contain only my network name! I called the network and they couldn't help me!
I already looked through all the settings I could think of and didn't find anything!
In the Settings>Call I have the following listed:
-Slot 1 call settings
-Slot 2 call settings
-Phone settings
In the slot settings:
-FDN
-Call forwarding
-Call barring settings
-Additional settings
Any input will be much appreciated!! :good:

same problem,
my solution
I jaut solved this problem, i used following steps
1. Put sim card in other phone that has cell broadcast setting
I user desire hd
2. Disable cell broadcast and disable message from channel 50 if available else
Disabling cell broadcast should do the job
3. Restart to check if cell bbroadcast is still disabled
4. Remove sim and put in ur htc dual sim
5. There should be no more messages from 50
Enjoy...
This thread is very old and am afraid I come too late.
With my X9, All messages > three dots at the upper right corner > Settings > Slot 1/2 Cell Broadcast, uncheck those boxes,voila~!
