Just got my new Orange M3100 (Tytn) and I'm having problems with trying to forward incoming calls to another number. I have to divert and cancel divert often during the the working day and could do with a short cut to the settings call forwarding page. I don't seem to be able to make one... Could anyone advise...
Also trying to do similar with Bluetooth settings as I swap my BTheadset between phones just as frequently. I have found a link on this site to a utility to do that but not had chance to try it yet...
Can I just make a shortcut to that as well ??
Apart from that it appears a excellent device, running Tomtom etc without any problems....
Thanks in advance Phil
All the ways I tried to create such a shortcut do not work, because it requires an USSD "call". I asked WM5NewMenu author to implement USSD handling, will see...
For now the best solution I've found is to assigh speed dial keys in the dialer to USSD sequencies to divert and cancel diverts. It's OK for a while because speed dial keys can be easily accessed with one hand only (green phone button, then arrow left or down).
EDIT: In case you don't know USSD sequences... You'd better consult your operator to be sure. For me:
Divert all calls: **21*number_to_divert_to#
Cancel divert of all calls: ##21#
There are also codes for conditional diverting, of course.
Hi Phil,
What Lurker0 has mentioned is a good idea. You can save those strings as a number in a contact and maybe assign a speed dial or voice tag to that contact for speed? I guess one contact to enable and another to disable. The commands Lurker0 mentions are standard over all networks.
I'm not sure if there are ways to send AT commands to the modem in the TyTN (M3100) but it is another possible way to do it if someone knows how, if not then it might be useful info to someone else.
The AT command you need to send is AT+CCFC=1,1,<number>,128,1,,, this is the number in local format (no +44) like 07968xxxxxx to enable and AT+CCFC=1,0 to disable.

Phonealarm may be a simpler solution as I think u can add a forward number within a profile so just switching profile from the Today screen (phonealarm skin) would do the trick...

I've not had any dealing with the ATM commands so to be honest I wouldn't know were to start. I've just tried to install Phone alarm in my Orange SVP
M3100 but after asking me if I need and extra language the software just locks up.. Soft restart then required....
I managed to find the directory that it was installed in, the setup prog is there but I can't find the executable file, I guess that it has not got that far !!!!
Any help please...Phil
I'd suggest to try USSD codes as the easiest and 100% working solution.
Tried the ussd numbers in the contacts list.... works very well both divert and cancel divert... Just need to setup the speed dial now, were is that manual !!
Thanks again.

Hi Phil,
Go into the phone skin (green button) > Menu > Speed Dial...
That's you...
Gav.
Speed Dial is also at "green phone button" then arrow left, or arrow down, or wheel down. So one hand operation is possible.
Many thanks to you both... Nice to find helpfull people on here... Phil

Phil,
I do the same and installed the O2Plus (and patch) software which tweaks the today screen and gives direct access to mutiple profiles for different forwarding options - works really slickly.
Check this forum for the .cab files
Hope that helps.

i tried putting the codes in a speed dial but Tytn unhelpfully said i had to enter the sequences in from the phone pad directly. all i did was put the **21*<no># in as a speed dial. did i miss something somewhere?
If you are rooted, start a shortcut to "Activities". Scroll down to "Phone", expand that, then scroll down to "Call forwarding". Select! Easy peasy.
Hey all,
I've been trying to troubleshoot a problem I have when pressing my dial pad number 1 and have been unsuccessful myself, maybe one of you might have some insight. I'm running an ATT 8525 w/Black Satin Normal WM6 ROM and my organization utilizes Good Messaging for exchange server communication.
My problem is whenever I press/tap (not type and not hold) the number 1 my voicemail is auto dialed and my Good Messaging contacts are maximized. I am unable to dial any phone number that utilizes the '1' digit because of this problem unless I create a contact or type it.
I've trolled the Good tech support page and found no such problem. I've tried reinstalling Good to no avail.
Any suggestions?
UPDATE: I've installed an alternative dialer skin and all is well.
PIM file was so large wing started giving me "low memory" warnings. I deleted PIM file, re-synced with exchange server, and PIM file was rebuilt. Had to re-assign speed dial numbers. No speed dial 1 for voice mail anymore. Help!
That file holds your PIM information if that's not already obvious enough. To get that number back, go to start>settings>phone>services>voice mail and text messages>get settings>voice mail number should be listed under "Voice Mail."
no speed dial 1
yes, the phone number for voice mail is listed there, but there is no speed dial 1 available in the speed dial list, and no option to configure it.
In your dialer, go to menu>speed dial>menu>new and set voicemail to number 1.
I tried this but the choices start with speed dial 2. Thanks for trying.
Then what happens when you press and hold 1?
Nothing happens when I press 1 and hold. That's how I figured out that I must have messed it up when I deleted the PIM file.
bump, anyone else out there who may know?
Bump... theres about 50 topics on this site concerning this... does anyone have any ideas?
I've recently installed Itje'e Touch IT 4.5 ROM and been stuck with this problem. When prompted for my voicemail number (Orange UK) I mis-typed a digit and am now left with speed dial number 1 with the wrong number within. You should be able to edit within Phone settings but for some reason this ROM does not allow certain fields to be edited - speed dials being one of these.
Can anyone assist with an alternative method or registry tweak for this problem?
Weird one yesterday did a hard reset, nothing went wrong as I backed up using smart switch software.
Everything is back on my non rooted device and its working better than before which is why I needed to hard rest the phone.
This isn't the issue, the issue was the setting up speed dial and voice mail or number one on the speed dial I'm with Vodafone and its voice mail has always been 121, but during my set up I mistakenly set it to 191, which is customer service number.
There is no way of removing the 191 speed dial I can remove 2-999 contact but not number 1 weird rang UK support from Samsung and they had me on hold for 10mins saying they cant remove it either. So prove me right or wrong?
Go to phone or contacts
Top left three dot menu
select: Speed dial
see if you can change number one speed dial?
An X only appears on contacts from 2-999 so question was how to change the no.1 speed dial? Samsungs' answer was hard reset again
