I have Cingular service inside the United States, on my normal cell phone, not my PDA I have voicemail after like 6 rings, and then I dial a number, enter my password and get my voicemail, I know I can dial a number on my PDA and enter my password and check voicemail but will it automatically after 6 rings or so bring them to the voicemail, and can I record my own answering machine thinG? ANyone that has done this plz help.
it sounds very much like your answering machine is located at the phone company and have 100% nothing to do with your phone
so it should work the same way no matter which type of phone you use
and if your phone company let you record your own greating then you can do it with what ever phone you want

Can the number of rings prior to a call diversion or a missed call listing be varied on the XDA 2 Mini itself or is it a service provider setting. What is maximum time setting? At the moment it seems about only 20 seconds and i currently miss a lot of calls because I am not quite quick enough getting it out of the holder, opening the cover and answering the phone.
It's an Operator function so you'll need to speak to them about it. You can send codes to some operators from your phone so hopefully they'll tell you what the codes are!

The (your prefix, your number) can be any number you like, it is the number the caller is diverted to when you do not answer, ie your network answer phone number is default so make a note of this first.
Hi!
I am using a feature of my telephone company which is called "parallel call". There i can have a call that is ringing on my home phone, ring on another number i can specify at the same time. Whoever picks up first, gets the call.
I know that my old Siemens S55 could at least show me, thet the call reaching my cell was a redirected one.
How can i get my Neo to show me, that a call is redirected or even better show me the phone number it originally intended to reach.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

what exactly happens when you try to call the number? any message or anything?
might be worth a call to T-Mobile to verify they don't have any restrictions on the account or anything
i just hear a beep and nothing happens! i just notice that this aldo happens when i try to call a numer that it's not saved in my contacts.. so i can only call someone if his nurmer is saved in my contact list.. do you if there is an option to disable this?
thanks!
try having a play in
settings - menu - all settings - personal - phone - services - call barring (typing this from memory, wording may be slightly different).

SAME situation I'm on T-Mobile and hubby's on AT&T (work) and I can NEVER call his phone (always get voicemail) unless his phone is right next to me!
We've tried everything... once he leaves our little onclave ZAP! he's no longer reachable unless it's late at night.
this worked for me
settings - menu - all settings - personal - phone - gsm/umts services - caller ID - check everyone
thanks for all the help guys!!
I have upgraded to kk 4.4.4, Since I upgrade I have problem to select options using dial pad. From contacts or using dial entering nos in dial pad I can make calls but like when I need to call customer support I can dial there no and connects but when computer gives options like press 1 for voice mail 2 to someone at that time when press nos at dial pad does nothing. I can hear key tone pressed but doesn't select in their options. I can't even listen my voice mail. when dial voice mail it connection and when gives options keypad press high lights and key tone sounds but no selection. i have tried changing one hand options and installing other dialing apps like exdialer, rocket dialer nothing working. When used 3rd party dialer just dial pad changes and when at options selection it shows again stock dial pad. And one more thing when I'm talking on phone and if I get second call phone disconnects.
I'm using LYCA Mobile USA with verizon N900V If I use same sim with other phone everything works fine, So I know this is only problem with phone set.
Just I'm having this issue or some one also having this problem. Some has solution please help. Thanks
I Have the Same issue
I purchased the phone from Verizon and i'm using cricket now, i can't access any dial pad option when i dial voicemail or any 1 - 800....... number like for customer care press 0 i press the 0
but the response still say for customer service press zero, i sent the phone to Samsung with my factory warranty but Samsung seems doesn't really care they send me back the phone with no problem fix, and besides that i used to have a dial issue if i call some on from my call log it adds 01117730000000 some like this it seems like the phone is dialing International for local calls but i got fixed that problem. but i need help for the $700.00 phone i paid it's a piece of crap Samsung doesn't really care i would't never purchase a Samsung phone if there warranty services doesn't do noting.
I bought my US996 V20 from B&B and got it shipped to the UK where I live. It works fine in the UK except for one anomaly.
I have my service provider's voicemail number 901 set up as the voicemail number in the phone settings. But if I attempt to ring 901, either by holding down the 1 key OR by simply dialling 901, my phone attempts to ring +17855366... I.e. it dials my UK mobile number but with the American prefix. I then inevitably get the "number not recognised" message.
This is evidently some consequence of the phone being intended for sale and use in North America. But I can't work out why it is doing this or how to stop it. Meanwhile I can't access my voicemail when the phone is set up properly.
To get round this, I put any random incorrect number in the phone's voicemail setting then I can manually dial 901 without the phone hijacking it and redirecting my call to +1..... So it's a minor annoyance at best, but it's intrigued me so if anybody knows why it's doing this, and how to stop it, I'd be very grateful.
All the best
