My phone number details
Hello,
When I did my port this week the number shown in Settings, Phone, My Number didn't update following the port which broke iMessage and FaceTime. The fix was to reset network settings (Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings) and after this my number was correctly recognised. Be warned, doing this reset will make your phone forget any wireless networks you have previously joined which isn't the end of the world, but annoying 🙂
Kind regards, Alec
Tap Reset, then Reset Network Settings.
this has changed the number however, when I go into FaceTime it shows my correct number but states this number only has 23 days left for iMessage and FaceTime as it states this number is registered to your Apple ID but is not associated with this phone.
SueGrat_2552364 Some research on this seems to indicate that firstly the number in Settings should be changed and then log out of FaceTime and iMessage, wait a while and then log back in.
If the number of the phone in Settings has been changed, then hopefully the should tally with what FaceTime and iMessage are seeing and hopefully you won't get that warning.
Have tried that, my FaceTime and iMessage is now correct on my IPad but my phone is still showing the 23 day warning with a timer symbol against the number. This is very annoying.
