imessage number won't change to my current and preferred number.

Can't i simply click some button that says change imessage number and enter my phone number and let it validate? I am having a hard time changing my number back after i switched to my second sim to receive and sms (not imessage) sent to it. 2wks now 😡tried almost all i can find in the forum still no luck.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 12

Turning off iMessage in settings, messages is normally all that is needed to de-register the number then turn it back on with the new SIM in place.

Check also Settings, Phone, My number is correct.
