If someone’s caller ID information is blocked, or there is a problem with the caller ID information being sent by your cellular carrier, then the person’s phone number is unknown.
Getting started
When you get a new phone, you’ll need to input your phone number into the phone’s settings. Sometimes, however, your old phone’s number may be hidden, or the number may have been removed from your phone. If you don’t know your phone’s current number, you can’t input it into the new phone.

How Do I Unhide My Phone Number
There are a few ways to hide your phone number from people who may be calling you. One way is to go to the Call settings on your phone and under Caller ID, select “Show number”. This will show your phone number as an 8 digit number instead of your name. Another way to hide your number is to go to the Additional settings on your phone and under Caller ID, select “Show number”. This will show your phone number as a number only, without any letters. If someone is calling you and they don’t see your name or number, they can’t leave a message.
