Updating About Phone Information

[xathras]

Hiya All,
Received my HTC Desire this week and its amazing. I've ported over from another provided and it appears that Phone Information in the About Phone Section contains my temporary port number.

Can this be updated? Or is this information taken from the SIM?

Thanks
Wayne

I also have this issue...guessing it reads from the Sim that ToMob supplied with phone so prob can't be changed.

Not sure how teh other networks work on porting, but when I moved from Orange 18 months ago, my N96 took 3 weeks to show the correct number under the SIM info.

About the same time I had issues with my Tmobile logging in, as the temp number no longer existed and so my account info for my Tmobile went screwy.

I guess the change only happens when they re-issue the number, thus completing the porting process.
