How do I set up a new iPhone 11 with a new Apple ID if I have an old 7 plus with another Apple ID that I would like to not use anymore? I am also transferring my current phone number

I am trying to set up a new iPhone 11 with a new Apple ID. I have been sharing the same Apple ID with my siblings and would like to get a new one. But when I went to set it up no calls or texts went through. Does anyone know how to set up the new phone with the new Apple ID so my same number is used and so I can actually use the new phone to text and call?


Thanks, M

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Have you removed the phone number from the Apple ID that is signed into the iPhone 7 by logging into that ID and then logged into the new ID to add the phone number to the new Apple ID?
