Phone number on Today Screen

Hi, can anybody tell me how I can get my phone number to automatically appear on the Today Screen (eg. from SIM) without me having to type it in, or include in contacts?
Thanks

Enter it under Setting into Owner Information. Then under Settings go to Today and to the tab Items. Here you can choose which items should be shown. Tick the box Owner information.

Thanks, I know that's an option, but as I'm continually swapping sims, it's not a workable option (especially as I can't remember the numbers)! Surely there's a way to get the number from the SIM. It worked on the Magician.....

There is a desktop plugin which can solve your problem. It can display the text defined by yourself according to your different IMSI. But it is in Chinese. Pls visit:http://bbs.pdafans.com/thread-181236-1-33.html

Thanks. Any chance you can post the file here?

Install mystk.cab first, then copy patch files to \windows.

Contacts numbers problem.....

Hey guys... not sure if i'm dumb, but i cant seem to figure out how to add additional numbers to the saved numbers in contacts without saving them.
for example, i have a contact named "keith" with the saved tel number 1234567. i do not want to change this. But if i were roaming and needed to add some numbers how do i do it? let's say i needed to press *108*611234567#... how do i add the additional numbers without saving it.
Thanks in advance!

Not sure I understand you.
You want to be able to add new numbers to existing contacts WITHOUT SAVING THEM?
Is this correct?
If you dial a number and you want to save this to an existing contact you can do this.
Its very simple. Simply select the number you want on your phone dial screen > Push Menu > Save to Contacts > Yes, To existing Contact > then select contact

thanks for the reply spartan...
if i can make it clearer....
i already have a saved number... "1234567" but if i am roaming overseas i might have to add a code to be able to call out. i do not want to permanently add these to the saved numbers. With sony ericsson, i just had to call the contact, cancel the call and add additional numbers on the dialing screen.

Unfortunately I am not aware of any way of doing this.
What may help is if you ring somebody. Obviously there number will appear below there name on dial screen. Now that you can see it you can type in their number again with code infront.
Hopefully I am mistaken and there is another way of doing this. Maybe somebody else can enlighten us. I will try searching and see if I can find anything. If I do I'll report back!!

yeah tat's what i am currently doing, but my memory's not too good so i have to write it down... thanks for your help.... i've tried searching about this too but didnt find anything... if i manage to i will also post it...

Dialing a number, does not auto add the area code

I have searched and searched trying to find a fix! (Sorry if this has already been asked, i could not find what i was looking for)
On my HTC Ozone when dialing a number i have to enter the area code for the contact to show up on the screen.
On my old WM phone if i dialed XXX-XXXX it would auto change the number XXX-XXX-XXXX when it dialed.
for some reason the ozone does not add the area code. I have checked the default area code and it is set to 405 (which is Oklahoma) and still does not work!
Any help would be great!!!!

It wont show up if you are dialing within the same area code. Also make sure your area code is enclosed like (XXX) XXX-XXXX

Ported number, old number still visible

I've ported my number to my new network. All ok there, works perfectly, etc
When I go to Settings - Menu - All Settings - Personal - Phone at the top it still displays my temporary number.
Does anyone know where I can access this to change is to my ported number, please?
Many thanks

Start > Calls > SIM Manager
Then go to Menu > Tools > List of Own Numbers...
Now select the number you want to change (LINE 1) and press edit

Thank you for that hollinshead
It worked within the SIM Manager though when I returned to the path I put in my first post, it didn't reflect the change, so I did the phone off/phone on and... yay! Result!
Many thanks for your help

I think the problem is it stores the Sim info when it loads the phone (or atleast this is the way it worked with 2003).
If you disable the phone then re-enable it, it should have the same effect.

automatic area and operator code

Ok this might be a noob question but I DID spent more then half hour looking for an asnwer before posting and could not find my answer. so here it is.
When I am roaming every time I make a call I need to type in 0+area code+operator (phone company) before I enter the number.
However I normally use the numbers that are already in my contact list, if I click on it it will dial without the additional information, because in my home city I don´t need this codes and so I didn´t inserted the phone numbers with 0+AC+Op info.
Is there a way to configure my phone to add 0+Area Code+ Operator when I am away from my home city? And also the HD2 recognize that I am in the area code of an outside city and do not dial 0+AC+Op for this specific city when I am on it?
Thank you
Felipe

Ok it seems obvious that I can just input the 0+phone company number+area code before the number and save it in the contacts, it works, what if I change my operator (phone company)? I will have to go thru every single contact and change each number with the new number?
I wonder if there is a way to manually input it when I am roaming, like in the old nokias and LG once I was roaming and I dialed a number in contact list it asked for area code and operator number.
