Hello,
Just purchased a amazon fire phone for £99. Kept my old number but swapped it to the new Nano SIM. Phone working ok, a few minor thing to get use to but on phone device screen it does cant find my number on sim card. My mate said it should, but does this matter or does this need to be showing my number so everything works ok.,,ie, like downloading apps etc etc.
thank you in advance for any help/advice.
Cliff H.

That's normal on O2 contract SIM's. Call your friend or from a residenial line tio find it out. It seems odd however that is a security feature should your SIM/handset should ever go missing. In fact, you'll get it from the My O2 account settings including your IMEI and PUK code if you should need it.

You need to put your sim in a phone where you can rewrite the number onto the sim card. iphone or nokias and some anroid phones will allow you to do that. The O2 store may help if you don't have a friend with a suitable phone. It nwill then show on the Firephone. It won't make any difference to the actual usage of the phone.

I also think that the number is no longer on the sim so that sim swaps can be done but I stand to be corrected.
