Moving Mobile Provider.?
« on: May 07, 2013, 01:54:57 PM »
Hello,

We are about to change mobile supplier...
The actual Phone and SIM will stay the same,
"only" the Phone Number will change...

Will this affect the configuration or cause problems

Thanks & Regards

Hello,

all will be fine. although you usually get a new sim card with a new provider. if this is the case proceed like this:

- deactivate anti-theft
- change sim
- enable anti-theft

by opening anti-theft to enable it again, the new sim card will be added to the trusted sim cards list and won't trigger a "lost" event.

Hello Werner,

Many Thanks

We have new phones & sims which currently work, and I'm installing AVAST Mobile.

We are migrating only the number from old provider.
The new phones/sims have a temporary number.

We call new provider with a Code provided by existing provider
We give the code to New Provider, and then within a period of time the old phone/sim/number is de-activated,
and the number moves across to the new phone/sim.

Hope this makes sense.?

Regards - David
