SIM Number Setter is an Xposed module that helps you to fix the annoying "Unknown" tag under the Phone number in Android system settings.

Remote provisioning is the key strength of the eSIM architecture, which means the embedded SIM can be easily programmed by installing the desired carrier profile. Programming a physical SIM card, however, is a difficult job. For example, if you've got a SIM that shows the "Unknown" value under the Phone number on SIM property in the Android system settings, there's no easy way to change it.
