I recently purchased an iPhone through apple.com and had it activated (by Apple) with my old number with ATT service. Is there anything I have to do to deactivate my old phone or does Apple automatically deactivate it when the new phone is configured? Or maybe it doesn't even have to be deactivated?

What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support explains what you should do with your "old phone."

In that case, I have no idea what to do with your old device, but a brief search of the internet results in, among others: How to wipe your Android phone before selling or trading it in
Edit: Since you are keeping it, I suppose it is your choice what to do with it. Erasing may not be necessary. Since the number has been transferred, their should be no interference between the two phones.
Thanks. I probably could have been more clear to my concerns. More along the lines of "is there anything I have to talk to ATT about in deactivating my old device", but you answered that with your post.
Just to add.. My old phone is Andriod/Samsung and I will be keeping it..
