TL;DR
Your Orange Egypt phone number only appears after the SIM is activated — check it via the operator's app or by calling support. To register the phone itself on the network you need its IMEI/serial number — dial *#06# or check the original box.
The phone registration app requires a phone number to log in, but you only get that number after physically activating the Orange Egypt SIM — activate the SIM first, then use the number to log into the app.
To get your phone's IMEI and serial number for registration, dial *#06# — the same numbers are usually printed on the phone's original retail box.
On dual-SIM phones, dialing *#06# shows two separate IMEI numbers (one per SIM slot) plus a common device serial number.
The phone's serial number (different from IMEI) is the identifier used to block lost or stolen devices on the local network.
Once a phone is registered by its serial number, the operator's database automatically shows the number of SIM slots and their corresponding IMEIs.
