    Default Can't hide my number when making a phone call

    I got a new 8900 replacement (under warranty) and I know this worked on my old phone but somehow it's not working on this new one.

    Inside the Call log, menu >> options>>general options>>
    Show "My Number " = NO

    But my number still shows up whenever i'm making a phone call.

    I tried turn off and on. Battery pull too.

    Help?

    Thanks.

    I know this is simple. But did you save the changes. I do it often and forget to save. If not. Take it back to the store

    It is not 'show my number'.

    That is for if you hit phone, your number shows up.

    You are looking for "restrict identity' set that to your choice. There are 3 options Never, Always or Network Determined.


    Good luck!

    Push your green phone button, then the blackberry button and scroll to options, then general options. It will show a "restrict my identity" and that is where you can select always, never etc.

    Good luck. Let me know if it works.

    I am trying to hide my number when I hit phone, or making a phone call. I don't want my number shows up on my blackberry screen (at the right side/corner).

    It is set as Show My Number = "No" --> still doesn't work.

    weird.
