got my number changed

[C_Dub]

So when I got my EVO I didn't port over my old iPhone number because I wasn't 100% certain that I was going to keep the phone. After the new iPhone was unveiled I was sold that the EVO was indeed my baby and proceeded to get my old number back. That has been done for a couple weeks now but under Phone Information my old temporary number still shows up and when I call my current number it shows on the calling screen as regular number instead of "voicemail", even though it does take me there. I am curious if there's a way for the phone to recognize the new number as its own or if the old one is hard-coded into the device.

I think you're going to have to go thru Sprint tech support because to try and change the number yourself is highly illegal.

I think you have misunderstood me lol. I have already done that. It shows up on my Sprint account online as the correct number but not on the phone.

Try updating your profile through the settings.

Try updating your profile through the settings.

What do you mean by that?

 

[Kelmar]

Menu>Settins>About Phone... one of the options in there should give you the ability to "update your profile."

It may correct your phone information phone number.

It would appear I do not have that option.

None of those have anything about profile information

I'll let one of the Evo owners chime in... I'm sure the option is there somewhere
