Lol I tried that, it didn't work. I'm trying to change the default number to my new number, it just tells me I cannot delete following contacts!

Open Myself, click on edit button (guy with pen in top right corner), than click on add new, enter your new number and save. After that edit it again and delete old number, save. Another option is factory reset.

No, no & no, tried all that before I posted about problem! I joined XDA Developers to see if there is a work around, i.e. a question for a programmer/developer,

I dont get it... why is it you cant edit it to a new phonenumber?

You cannot delete "Myself" as it is not an actual contact.

Go to gmail from the mail id you have registered for the device
go to account settings
try changing your gsm number there

Did you pressed "done" after you changed the number?
