In this guide, we will show you the steps to fix the issue of the Phone Number Unknown on your Android device. The Subscriber Number on the device’s SIM card is usually not set by the carrier or if it has been, then it might get deleted or become invalid after porting that number to a different SIM. As a result of this, when you head over to the Settings > About Phone section, it will display the Phone Number section as Unknown.
Fortunately, you could easily rectify this issue using a nifty method that will allow you to input the desired number of your choice. But do keep in mind that it wouldn’t unlock the carrier-blocked SIM or change the IMEI on your device. All the tweaks carried out will be done b taking the help of the Android System code built into the OS itself. So without any further ado, let’s get started.
