The phone comes up now with the Public Mobile carrier name and 3G.
You can call out on the phone fine and messaging seams to works both in and out, though I think it's defaulting to Apple's iMessage.
The problem is calling into the phone, when you do you get a voice message saying the 'The Cellular Number You Have Called is not Assigned'.
Any ideas what the problem could be. I'm still getting the problem 6 hours after setting everything up.
I Rogers account was closed the same time I asked to port over the old number as part of the setup process for Public Mobile. Could it be this is the problem that it should have ported first and then when done closed the original acount? If so what are my options.
The phone saying Public Mobile on the screen, calling out, and messaging out do not give any indication of porting sucesss. These happen immediately, before the number even gets transfered.
When you say that your Rogers service was cancelled at the same time as the number transfer request, is that because you had Public Mobile request the number transfer, or did you contact Rogers to manually cancel? If you did that, that was explain the number not assigned message because you can't transfered a a phone number from a cancelled service.
If your Rogers service only stopped working after you made the phone number transfer request, this means that Public Mobile "fudged" things up. That would be an indication that Rogers did authorize the phone number to be transfered to Public Mobile and that Public for some reason has not completed stuff on this end for whatever reason.
If that's what happneed, you'll have to wait to have the moderators correct this for you.
