Your SIM car doesn't know your phone number. Just borrow a normal phone (not a smartphone), insert your SIM card and then go to the phonebook, and modify the special numbers. You have to specify your phone number there. When you will insert your SIM card in your X10, you will see your phone number instead of the weird message.
No, didnt work

Hi All!
I have 2 contact list. First on XDA II memory, and second on my SIM card (this list i using with old phone like Simens S35).
I have a strange and BIG problem. All names of caller who make call to my phone will be not displayed. I can see only incoming call number if caller information missing on SIM card contact list. (but caller information may be include in XDA II Contact's)
Contacts information have format like +7 (921) XXXXXXX (or other +44, +49 ...)
What the problem?
How i can see caller information from my XDA II contact list at incoming call?
Any body HELP
With best regards, Maxim
P.S. Sorry for my english
most cellphones have both room for numbers on the sim card and in the phones internal mem
so if you cant solve it any other way you could always delete the content of the sim card and just use the contacts on your xda and your phone
Example:
I have record on my SIM like "Piter Mobile +7 (921) 1234567" and record in XDA II "Piter Gabriel +7 (921) 1234567"
Piter calling on my phone... I see "Piter Mobile". If i delete this record from SIM contact list, i can't see "Piter Gabriel". I see only "+79211234567".
What's problem?

Pls check numbers at SIM and at XDA carefully. Think you have different numbers at both devices.
No. Phone number from SIM and from XDA contact's is identical.
Suppose I know You use your XDA with Nokia? SIM is not inside your XDA? If so you have to receive information (address book as well!!!) from your phone via bluetuth or irda. I.e. if you dont have contacts at the SIM card your XDA will display numbers RECEIVED FROM YOUR PHONE. i THINK
No. I use at same time only ONE device
Now XDA II. SIM card into XDA
Draft! Im not crazy
I have a real problem. All standart metod to resolve already tested (may be :? )
hmm How you delete record from your SIM?
Will test on my Xda the same. Maybe smth find
To add/delete numbers to the SIM card, you can go to the SIM manager app (built in).
It will allow you to export numbers to your contact list as well. To make a number go from a contact to the SIM card, you need a third-party program. Pocket Informant (best PIM there is, IMO) can do this, don't know of any others that can off the top of my head.

I had this but fixed it by taking the SIM out and editing advanced-special number- in my old phone and adding my number.
My phone number now shows instead of the "sim card unavailable".
Yup agree with above poster... shove it in a dumb phone, edit your number then pop it back in your smart phone and it will be able to 'see' the number
Great tip. That's been bugging me for a while. Thanks!
I have a htc touch dual will that do it ? Thanks for replies

hi
i need to save my number to a special/my own number??
or i need my to save my number and edit the name to something special??
How would you edit your number using a dumbphone?
It does work, but there should be an application to fix this , it is funny that a "smart phone" can not handle "stupid tasks"
Wanted to know how to do this also. Cheers
I used a blackberry on the service provider store to edit it and be able to use taptalk...

LOL...good one...
yes!!!
thats exactly how its done... I had the same problem , removed the sim, put it in an old SE phone, edited the number and now it shows up in my X10i...
FYI: Mobile number is never pre-stored in SIM card given by your mobile operator. The SIM card only contains IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) which is the ID of the SIM card it self. And the phone does not know what is its phone number as well. And that is why that you can actually ask the mobile operator to change your phone number, without requiring you to change SIM card.
So you need to manually write your own number with other phone.
PS: Mobile phone eavesdropping/tapping hardwares also cannot see your phone number, only IMSI as the phone send their IMSI to mobile network. So movie that shows that they can sniff and see your phone number in their hardware, its fake.
i sold all my old phones
Hi
I am using HTC wildfire phone with android 2.2.1.In that I installed the app named SIM card change notifier
In that app i have stored one phone number and my name .At the time of changing my SIM card in my phone .The app sending the message to the stored number like "SIM card of myname phone is changed"
How that app is working that means how the app finding the SIM card change based on the phone number using in that system or based on the SIM number of the Particular SIM
Hi all,
after hitting *#*#4636#*#*
i am unable to retrieve the SMSC nor update the number keyed in.
for example singapore singtel: +6596197777
After i click on update it gives me update error.
Does not matter which rom nor radio i use it all wont work.
Can help?
Are you not receiving any SMS? Why are you trying to modify this? When I was on Starhub and my girlfriend on Singtel we never had any SMS issues. Are you trying to forward them elsewhere?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
i am trying to send sms but unable to so i went to update the SMSC using the numbers given by singtel.
The problem is that i can recieve sms but not able to send them.
Phone is unlocked, rooted and flashed with cm 2.3.4 kanged.
That is quite odd we never had any issues like that on my nexus one or either of our nexus s phones while we were there. Our nexus s phones were stock but my nexus one was constantly having new roms flashed on it and never experinced that on Singtel or Starhub. Have you tried wiping the phone and reinstalling your rom?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
yes done all that, and mixed and match different radios and roms to test but to no avail.
Have you flashed a stock backup image? One that isn't rooted? Did you have any of these problems before rooting? After rooting? Was it only after you started flashing roms?

Call tour service provider and have your SIM repushed
Sent from my Nexus S
sim card was reset by singtel (Telco)
Rom was flash with stock, cm7 etc etc all types of radio
The only solution left is to update it with another SIM card
I had a similar problem a few weeks ago and I solved it by *#*#4636#*#*, phone information, press menu button, select radio band. Select the one that should be good for you then re-enter your smsc number and it might work.

The reason why it doesn't hold is that you cannot enter and save the number as +xxxzxxxhhff. You have to convert it to a smsc + pdu format.
Google it up.
An alternative would be to put the sim card in an old phone (non smart phone) and change the centre number there, save it and transfer back the sim in your phone.

Right before you posted that i did that.
Problem solved
SIM card missing SMSC number. Place into old phone(non-smart phone) or another phone and input SMSC number then place SIM card back to NS. Done!
Thanks for the help
I realised after keying in ur smsc number via another phone. I powered back my nexus s again and went into *#*#4636#*#* it still shows up as blank.
In the nexus s, to enter smsc number, you first have to convert it to pdu format.

Thx for ur hint @ deeren.
Hah, i managed to fix my SMS problem with ur hint.
I tried to update my SMSC for Orange Switzerland using +41787777070
Phone crashed on updating.
Then i converted the number using this page into PDC format.
AT+CMGW=17
07911487777770F011000091sasdda0000AA00000000000000
Updated the SMSC using 07911487777770F0 and voilà, im able to send SMS again
Btw, maybe there is a better page/tool to convert the SMSC number into PDU, cause the link i found converts the whole stuff and not just the smsc. And therefore u have to snip the correct hex-nums out of the complete string.
//update: its quite easy to snip the exact numbers out of the whole string.
First Number = Length of SMSC Info -> In my Case 07 -> SMSC has a length of 7
07911487777770F0[/B]11000
7 Hexdups -> 91 14 87 77 77 70 F0
Complete SMSC PDU => LengthInfo + NumOfHexdups
Update2:
@rallos, for +6596197777 it SHOULD be
0691566991777711000091sasdda0000AA00
Means: Enter 06915669917777 as your SMSC number
Code:
0691566991777711000091sasdda0000AA00
nn112233445566
nn=length of smsc=06
11=1st hex=91
22=2nd hex=56
33=3rd hex=69
44=4rd hex=91
55=5rd hex=77
66=6th hex=77
Results in 06915669917777

This has bitten me too previously, why is the NS's SMSC number in a different format? I know SGS we can enter the number straight as it is in the same screen.
Try Go SMS Pro
I have been struggling and struggling to change the SMSC on my G2X CM7.1 using *#*#4636#*#* to no avail. I kept getting "update error". I could not send sms. I can change the number using the Go SMS Pro in the settings and now I can send sms.

Switch the sim to an older android phone, #*#*4636*#*# then went to phone information , clicked refreshed, then put the sim back in my phone and that solved the issue. Thanks a lot! I have been looking for solution all afternoon.
This is the cure. It works

Hello,
How do you guys swich between sims as you call or send messages? Is it a better methot than "always ask". For example when i send a message i use " messenger" from google and it has tabs for simcards. You cand quickly chose wich sim to use for that message. Is there a way to do that also for dialer?

I use True Phone app from Play Store. It has also a thread on Xda. You can setup all your contacts to use the Sim of your choice. And if I have to dial a new number I can choose to remember it for future use.
