Lumia 510 - My Phone Number

Hello. I have successfully transferred my phone number to my new Lumia 510 and all is working well. However under Settings - Phone - Call Settings - My Phone Number it still shows the original phone number allocated to the phone SIM at point of sale. My provider (Tesco Mobile in UK) says this can not be changed manually but could offer no other help. Is there a way to change the number to the correct number I have ported across (from the same provider but from normal SIM on PAYG to micro SIM on Pay Monthly)? Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks. Alan

I remember the same thing happening with me when I switched from T-Mobile to Tesco a few years back. I don't remember if it righted itself or not.
More recently I took out a plan on Orange and "switched" to EE. The number that was in the micro SIM that came with the Lumia 920 was obviously different from my "real" number after it had been ported to the new network. Since then it set itself to the new, ported number.
Updates are sent to your SIM periodically. My theory is that my new number was programmed into the SIM in one of those updates, and the chances are that the same thing will happen to yours eventually, but I couldn't tell you when.

Lumia 510 Bluetooth problem

I think lumia 510 must have a basic feature like Bluetooth sharing
I read on Nokia support about Bluetooth share app but I don't find it on marketplace and one more thing I read on comments that through Bluetooth I don't send or receive data from Symbian or android phone so I want help about these problem

@hami7
Bluetooth Share is pre-installed in device firmware upon 510, at least it is upon my 710 running Windows Phone 7.8 which also received an update for this application today.
Is your 510 running firmware ending in .12460 or .12490 in settings > about > more information?

Lumia 510

lumia 510 is just a disaster, i feel like I commited suicide by buying this phone. Its high rate of airtime consumbtion and also it lacks bluetooth. Hoe to upgrate windows.

You update a Windows Phone 7 on your computer, either through Zune or on the Mac vie the Windows Phone Connector. Because it does have Bluetooth, what problem do you face exactly?

Nokia Lumia 510 Sync Issue

Hi,
I have an issue with my nokia Lumia 510 model. The Issue is Sync is not working if we set "as soon as mail Arrives" for the Outlook ActiveSync. Mails will come if we press Sync. So Push Option is not working for the same in the Handset. Already I logged a complaint with nokia on July 5th 2013 with Service Request Num: 1-14428498979 & 1-14586729991. And the Device surrendered to a nokia Care Centre in Trivandrum (Mobility solution, Karamana on 31st July 2013) and same device came back to me on 20 th August stating tat the issue is resolved. But Still I'm facing the issue. Talked to the Customer Care Executvies and the Store Manager (Mobility soslutions) many times. Nobody is able to solve the issue rather they are not ready to Provide the higher authoroties mail id or contact nums. I dont know what need to be done for the mobile. We have Purchased the Device for a monitoring Purpose in our Office. If anybody face same kind of Issues (Auto Sync not Working/Push ot working in the same device), Pelase help me on this. thanks,

So, is anyone from Nokia going to solve this poor guy's problem, or just leave him hanging there?
Same with my Lumia 510: why is the push email not working?
Why don't I have the "as itmes arrive" option?
Also: why does my bank say: "Sorry sir, but Nokia Lumia is not compatible with mobile banking..."?
Why did you change, Nokia?
Why did you make everything so non user friendly and non compatible with the lumia?
I miss the E-series phones
Will you help us, or should we accept our fate?

Sound like you only partially updated. That aside by your own admission you used an unofficial way of updatingthe phone which basically means you invalidated your warranty and it might also prevent your phone from receiving the remaining updates.

hi i would like to chang my macbook imessage back to my email address anyone know how to do that?

How to cause them to associate my Case Number 185689167 with the real phone number I need to be called at:

I purchased a one year subscription to Acrobat Pro, and after installation on my MacBook, in the LaunchPad (aside from the normal Adobe Acrobat Pro, Acrobat Distiller, and Forms Central for Acrobat) a folder containing two icons. The first was (I forgot the name) and the second entitled AAMLauncherUtil. Shortly after installation I ran the AAMLauncher Util, and it downloaded and "updated" Acrobat Pro and installed Creative Cloud. I was told by some person in Tech Support that I didn't need these two additional icons in LaunchPad, and I could just drag them to the trash.
The folder would not go in the Trash, so I dragged them out of the folder and then the one whose name I don't remember was able to go to the Trash, but not the AAMLauncherUtil icon.
I called Tech Support again, and got a technician whose name I will withhold, but although he tried to solve the problem, basically he was clueless and I could hear him asking other people in the background what to do and they were giving him suggestions, mucking around my library and deleting anything that sounded like it was associated with AAMLaucher, and in the end all he succeeded in doing was making my Creative Cloud not work anymore and produce messages that it was corrupted and had to be removed and reinstalled. Finally he gave up and said that he was referring my Case 185689167 to the next level higher of tech support, who would call me within 24 hours. Of course they never did that so I called Apple Support and a representative there went way beyond what he needed to do and we were able to uninstall and reinstall Creative Cloud and make it work again, although the AAMLaucherUtil icon remains there. Currently, it doesn't update anything like it did the first time I ran it, or act like it is trying to update anything, but it does open Creative Cloud if you have closed it.
Several days later (not the promised 24 hours) I got an email from my Voicemail Service with a transcribed message from Adobe Tech Support saying that they had tried to call me... at the number listed in my subscription payment details... NOT at the number I had told them to call me at, and since I am 7000 miles away from my billing number I didn't get the call. The message requested me to call them back. I did so, and the message on the VRU said I would have to wait approximately 30 minutes. Two and one half hours later (not 30 minutes) someone answered who was not Second Level Tech Support, and reiterated that it was not possible to transfer me to them, and he would note that I had called back and they would call me within 24 hours.... yeah right. By then after waiting all that time to speak to someone I was so mad that I forgot to mention the correct number to call me at... although I had mentioned it previously. Several days later (not 24 hours) they called the wrong number again, and when I didn't answer it then sent me an email that they were considering the case solved and closing it, and I could reopen it within 14 days.
I then called back and this time waiting 3 hours on hold, and the person who I spoke with (whose name I withhold for now) said he would reopen the case and they would call me within 24 hours... again he couldn't transfer me to them. Again I forgot to reiterate the correct phone number that I had told them the first time since I was so mad about waiting 3 hours on hold.
The next day, I realized that I had not reiterated the correct phone number, and I went into my account settings and changed the phone number in both places it exists, and then tried calling back to make sure they would call the correct phone number. This time I waited on hold for 4 hours, and finally gave up without ever being able to speak to a person.
The next day... still no call even to the wrong number since my Voice Mail would have informed me it there was a call.... I called Sales since that seemed to be the only way to talk to a real person, and screamed at them about this issue and was informed they couldn't do anything about Tech Support, or about associating my phone number with my case number, but he would put me in the queue for tech support since nobody was in the queue so they should call me back right away.
I did get a call in a few minutes, which said "If Valued Customer is available, press 1" so I pressed 1 and it went to music. I then waited for 15 minutes of music with no answer, after which I got an email from my Voicemail Service transcribing the message saying:
"Reschedule this call back for a later time press three to cancel this call back press nine. Your response was not recognized. Please try again. When valued customer is on the line press one to speak to a support specialist. If you need time to get valued customer on the line press two. To reschedule this call back for a later time press three to cancel this call back press nine. Your response was not recognized. Please try again. When valued customer is on the line press one to speak to a support specialist. If you need time to get valued customer on the line press two. To reschedule this call back for a later time press three to cancel this call back press nine."
... more. Please listen to your voicemail for the remainder of this message.
They can't recognize me pressing 1????? So who know... I was listening to music but did that mean I was really ever going to reach a real person, or was the Voicemail message correct and I would be listening to music forever?
So this morning I tried calling again only to receive message the the Tech Support Telephone Lines were down for scheduled maintenance until August 10th... I tried chatting... that is offline also.
Is there a way to associate my actual phone number with my case number... maybe somebody from Adobe actually reads these diatribes? I need to be called at or after 17:00 Pacific time.... I was told the hours are on Pacific Time.... although one representative who I was trying to coordinate the timing of the call with was very confused about the time zones. He was trying to tell me that the current time was 09:00 Pacific Time, which I knew to be wrong, and he finally admitted, after I challenged him to look on www.timeanddate.com, that it was 09:00 in Bangalore, and Pacific time was 20:00.

Thanks for your answer TSN!
I did try Chat yesterday and it didn't work.... said unavailable. I'll will try it again.
I do understand that this is a Community Forum, but it appears that some Adobe staff persons do read and respond to some messages, so since all other avenues of contact seem to not work, I thought I would try this just in case somebody from Adobe happened to read it and could do something.
A secondary reason I posted the whole explanation is that I thought maybe somebody else had experienced this issue as well and might comment on it.
As for it being a problem or not, maybe it is not. Adobe did work when I installed it. When I invoked that icon "AAMLauncherUtil" the first time, it updated Acrobat Pro and Installed Creative Cloud (which the original trial subscription had not installed).
I then noticed that these two icons didn't seem to do anything useful. The first time I called and was able to connect to support, the rather poor attitude person who answered just said to delete both icons in the folder... that they weren't needed. When I found that one of them could be deleted and not the other one "AAMLauncherUtil" could not be deleted, and since the tech support person had suggested deleting them both, I called back.
The next rather clueless person in tech support spent a lot of time trying to help get rid of it, but couldn't. When he was mucking around in the "Library" he deleted everything named "AAMLauncherUtil" from the Library (but left some stuff I would have imagined could have been deleted like references to my previous trial subscription.
After he got done, Creative Cloud no longer worked and he couldn't figure out how to fix it... we were getting messages the Creative Cloud was corrupted and needed to be uninstalled. He said he was going to refer the problem to a higher level tech support, and that he couldn't transfer me there... they would have to call me which would be in 24 hours.
The next day (since the higher level tech support failed to call back) I called Apple Support, and they helped me find a Creative Cloud Uninstaller and we ran that and re-downloaded and installed Creative Cloud again.
I would expect from the name "AAMLauncherUtil" that this icon would Launch Adobe Application Manager and perhaps try to update my product(s) like it did the first time, OR report that my software is up to date... as most other software update attempts would do. However what it really does now when I invoke the "AAMLauncherUtil" icon is just to open Creative Cloud just as if I had clicked on the icon in the top menu bar of my Apple Menu Bar. The Apple person suggested that MAYBE it is supposed to do that if you have shut down Creative Cloud for some reason, and want to start it up again without restarting the computer. Maybe that is so, but if it is, then I would have expected that they would have renamed the icon to Creative Cloud or something more descriptive of what it is supposed to do.
As is is now, I am not sure if it is a leftover remnant of my original updated installation that should have gone away when I updated and it installed Creative Cloud, or if everyone else running Adobe Acrobat Pro XI has this icon in their Launchpad as well and it is supposed to be there for some unknown reason to perform some unknown function.
After all that happened, I did update Creative Cloud, but that was within Creative Cloud itself when it reported having an update available, and not using the "AAMLauncherUtil" icon at all, so that would appear to negate it's possible update functionality wouldn't it?
Assuming you are using a Mac, do you have such an icon in LaunchPad?
Thanks for your help!

Did you know that a phone number from a webpage loads to your contacts?

Very cool - I was looking up the phone number of a restaurant on its web page using my iPhone; the phone displays all telephone numbers as blue links - touch it and the phone dials. But, this I didn't know, the phone also names the number and puts it in your contacts list! No $1.50 calls to 411; no reason to write down or enter the info yourself, it's there! And if you don't want it for some reason, just delete the contact. Who would want that "ZUNE" thing when Apple's products anticipate what you want to do? I love my iPhone!

Interesting - it somewhat works for me.
I have used Safari Google (m) to find a business, clicked on the found link and iPhone took me to the Maps application, tapped the info bubble in the map, and it formatted the new contact for me, Name, phone, address, webpage etc - and gives me the choice to create a new contact or add to existing contact. I've used this feature a few times in the wild, but never noticed the contact being created automatically without a confirmation.
First time it happened I whooped out loud (on the street) - okay, I'm a geek.
