Author Can I keep or tranfer my number when I change my carrier?

hi, guys,
I think a lot of you should have this issue. If I change my carrier,
how to transfer my old number to my new phone? I don't want to change
my number.

Also, how about transfer my home landline phone number to my new cell
phone? Coz if I have a cell phone, i don't really need a another
landline though. If it can, how to do it?

You can do either with "number portability." Sign up for the new
service _before_ canceling the old service, and specify the number to be
ported. When the number is ported, the old service will be canceled
automatically.
