Hi all,

I'm new here so if this is in the wrong section please move the thread to the right area. I just from a 7290 to a 7250 due to signal strength. The 7250 is with Sprint. My number is all ported and everything is working great. However, when I go into the phone function the My Number still shows the original number and not my acutal phone number that was ported over. I called Sprint and they could really figure it out. So, How do I change the programmed number in the phone to the REAL number?

Thanks!

From the Home Screen, select Options > SIM Card > press scroll wheel and select Edit SIM Phone Number.

I had this same issue with a Cingular Blackberry that I had ported an Alltel Number to.
The Edit SIM Phone Number feature would always say that I was not allowed to do that.
And, the 7250 wont have a SIM because it is CDMA.

Yup, your absolutely correct. I was looking at my T-Mobile when thinking about how to do that.

When I had my 7100g, this used to be a major pet peeve. Just had to learn to live with it.

PLease verify this with someone because I am not sure of it but, in a 7250 I have one btw, if you go to the phone application and type ##000000 and enter it should give you a place were it can be changed, the unfortunate part is I do not know which of the several entries there, is the one to change or if all the entries have to be changed. I would presume to edit all the entries that show the wrong number. But please have someone else confirm this I do not want you to screw up your phone, I know for another reason I was directed there once by a techie that made me make some changes but in all honesty I do not remember for sure. If you look and then call tech support maybe second level can help you.

I think the Mobile Directory # line would be the one to change. The other refernces should show the correct number, as those are the user ids for data, etc.

Yep that was it only the passcode was not ##000000 it was ##687501
