Help Please, Internal Phone info shows wrong number
My Optimus V shows my phone as having the number XXX-XXX-XX0X vice the actual XXX-XXX-XX8X under Settings/About Phone/Status. (If some one calls the XX0X that gets a business somewhere, if XX8X is called they reach me). My online account at VM is under the XX8X number too. I want to correct the "My Phone Number" to XX8X (from the XX0X). Does anyone know which file stores this information so I can edit it with root explorer or otherwise fix it?
Thanx Very Much
(tried the question thread but no response there.
Cm7 roms you can just change it in setttings
Settings > Call settings > Additional settings (for GSM) > My phone number.
Please note that the Additional settings menu may not work for some operators.

Bummer no "additional settings.." option on my OV. Thanx anyway. I may go to CM7 sometime soon and will use that method.
Do you have stock ROM or a custom ROM? If you are on stock ROM you should be able to use the activate app to rerun activation which should fix it. If that doesn't call VM and they can tell you have to change it since you may also need to change your msid number. If your not on stock you will probably have to backup your current ROM, flash a stock ROM to fix it and then you can restore your custom ROM

Did you re-enter or use a cab file to reset your carriers GPRS/MMS settings?
most custom roms don't include carrier specific customizations. Either you will have to run these from your original ext-rom (if you saved it off or didn't overwrite it) or you can probably re-enter manually by following steps in the support section of your carrier's website.
You may be able to find the information here in these threads. Kind of hard to search for though because someone asks in every single rom thread about them, and after a while people stop answering them.
try going to start > settings> phone > Services > tick on Call Barring then tap "get settings" ... then wait a few seconds while it reads the settings from the network.. and you will get a new screen.. change both of them to off... hit ok.. this should solve your problems
I have not used any CAB file to enter GPRS/MMS settings, i have entered settings for GPRS/MMS as given on my carrier web site.
start > settings> phone > Services > tick on Call Barring then tap "get settings" All call barring settings are off. I have done soft and hard reset, non worked.
I dont remember having this problem with ROM when i bought tytn.
I am having latest ROM right now.

Hi, i've same provem. have u resolved it?
Hi guys,
few days ago I've decided to move forward with Fusion Update 7 ROM to Fusion Update 8. Procedure was about normal beside the fact I had also purged SD card. Upgrade went well, but:
I cannot get mobile connection
No SMS can be sent
No matter which ROM/RADIO I had flashed after my previous move everything beside those two is working. So I can get WIFI connection or receive SMS, I can also call and receive calls.
My configuration:
- Hardware: HTC HERO GSM (white)
- Recovery: AmonRa 1.7
- ROM: FROYO_2.2_elelinux_v2.2 (at the moment)
- RADIO: 63.18.55.06OU_6.35.15.01 (at the moment)
Additional info:
- SMSC is set correctly (checked using *#*#4636#*#*)
- APN list is correct
- rollback to vanilla 1.5 ROM from RUU not helped
- other SIM cards from other carriers work the same way
I trying to get some debug information using adb, but only thing I can find is that ppp connection is missing in netcfg.
Do anyone know how to initiate Mobile Connection through adb shell ? or anyone get similar problem before?
Thank in advance,
Problem solved. During messing with ROMS my SIM card must been somehow damaged.
After more tries with other SIM cards my phone started to work finally.
You are missing the correct apn settings for your mobile data and also missing or have the wrong SMS service number, have a search on the forums here, or Google and you should find them. Always worth backing these up or writing them down, as not all rom's have necessarily got all providers son's included.

Thank you for fast reply.
I checked those before:
SMSC:
- refreshed with *#*#4636#*#* and those looks correctly for my carrier
APNs:
- there where missing fields in APN config which I've updated according to carrier configuration
Still nothing had changed.
I assume that it must be some kind of config that do not change between ROMS.
(I will update first message with those info.)
Did you checked with an other SIM/carrier?
Yes I did.
Effects where the same.
I've also rolled back to vanilla 1.5 ROM from RUU. Nothing changed.
It must be some kind of external configuration that is not changed via ROM replacement. Can this be true?
Thread moved to Q&A.
Whenever I try to edit the rtsp/http settings for proxy manipulations (to speed up streaming), I find that I cannot pull anything up. i.e. when i press or long press the "RTSP/HTTP Setting" tab, nothing happens. I do not get the option to change anything.
I am currently using senseless rom 2.2 on a sprint evo 3d flashed over to cricket, S-ON, unlocked via HTC method. Even before I went to cricket, I was unable to edit this specific setting.
Does anyone know of another way to edit these settings? from QPST, or is there a pre-req that I am missing to be allowed access to this setting?
[UPDATE- SOLVED]
I solved this by reflashing a stock rom and then attempting the rtsp/http proxy editing. Apparently, there may be an issue with the senselessROM 2.2 and 2.7 that I was using before than disallowed me to edit this. Now, my youtube works on 3g, which is what I was trying to fix in the first place.
Also, the miui rom series does not register the ##data# command for editing settings. All changes for streaming proxies should be done on stock roms with msl codes obtained through qpst.

The main reason, I'm fairly sure is due to the /system/app/EPST.apk probably not being included in the Miui or senseless ROMs but is always included in the stock rom from sprint.
This apk file contains the broadcast receiver for the dialer codes and the additional functionality to allow for the adjustments and edits to be made.
Hope that helps provide a bit more insight!
Realize also if you do a complete wipe and reflash to another ROM. You will have to go back in reset your desired settings.

[Q] Settings--> About Phone--> Status --> My Phone Number is showing as unknown
In Settings--> About Phone--> Status --> My Phone Number is showing as unknown
i am a newbie tried installing a terminal on my rooted android phone(2.3.7) and have checked getprop there are many properties available but I don't find any property that stores the sim phone number in this list.
could you please let me know where the modification has to go for changing it ? Application is available called "MY PHONE NUMBER" but unfortunately not installing on my cell
if some one has any idea how this can be done please let me know
thanks in advance

I don't think there is an option to enter phone number in SIM card in Android (correct me if I'm wrong). I entered mine in a SE K550. Number is displayed now in Android.

I followed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14949609&postcount=4. This was for stock ROM.
The method mentioned before (settings>call settings>gsm call settings>additional settings>my phone number) is for CM-based ROMs.
Hope this helps.

The easiest way to do this is to insert the sim into an iphone if you have one easily accessible, go to Settings>phone>my number ---> Here you can set your phone numb and save it.
Now if you insert the sim in an android phone, you will be able to see your number.
Happy new year to all in XDA! whell now, the question: i use a rom based on V20A (brazil) and when i enter in "About the phone -> Status" i can see my phone number and operator! it only say "Desconocido"(Unknow) in spanish.
I test some rom based in other version and have the same bug, how i can fix this? or how i can add the info of my operator in venezuel "Digitel"?
why i need that? because i can put my photo to the sms system and other thing related to my profile, like sync with facebook, twitter, etc...
thanks in advanced!

Okey, that because
1. Your cellular provider dont give your phone number on your SIM (hardware)
2. Android dont have 3rd application that have access to change your phone number (as i know, CMIIW).
What can you do for having your phone number on your status?
1. Use another phone like sonyericson or nokia that can give access to give "my number" on SIM card (i dont have specific knowledge about the series of phone)
2. Move your sim from android to another phone.
3. Give your phone number on setting.
4. Move back your sim to android, and check what you have done...
Edit:
This someone that success used another phone to change "my phone number"
