This may well be a problem with Orange rather than a handset/software problem but for the last month, i've had a notification that I have new voicemail but when I check there isn't one.
I've been through ROM updates and hard resets in that time so that would indicate that it's a service rather than handset problem but thought i'd ask here anyway just in case anyone knows how to fix it before I phone the idiots at Orange about it.
I've got an Orange HD touch I think what you are noticing is the voicemail icon appears when any type of message is received (text email etc.) not just when a voicemail arrives.
I hope this is helpfull, I know it took me a while to stop ringing voicemail every time the icon turned up.

It's not showing in the taskbar, it's saying 'New Voicemail' on the homesceen (under call history, above appointments).
Might not be the same but a few years ago I had a WM smartphone on Orange that would always tell me that I had a voicemail. The trick was leave myself a voicemail, listen to it, delete it then wait about 5-10 seconds before hanging up. The voicemail notification would then disapear. Then whenever I did get a voicemail I would listen to it as normal, delete it, then again wait 5-10 seconds before hanging up.
Worth a try!

I have an HTC Tytn on Cingular. Suddenly the voicemail symbol (little tape on the top taskbar) will not go away even though I've clearly deleted my voicemails.
Anyone experienced this?
Yup, I get that sometimes on T-mobile. Don't blame the phone though - I think it's Cingular that's at fault. Telephone yourself and leave a message on your own voicemail. Then play your voicemail and delete your new message. It should go away now.
Thanks Izzard, that worked!
Ok I was wondering if it would be possible to loop or repeat the "sound missed call notification".When I missed a call , I get notified but only one time.
Like I don't have all the time my eyes on my wizard, sometime I find out I missed a call way later .Would there be any cabs/software that allow to get notified at least every 10 or 15 minutes? thanks.
what kind of phone alarm notification you are using??
In my Spb Phone suite you can set up how long, how many times and how evry minutes you want to heard the alarm notifiaction of any of the missing incoming calls or data.
Well I was using the one built in mobile 6 (using TNT4 rom) ..but thanks for your answer. That's exactly what I was looking for
when i get an incoming call it takes a long time for it to come up..
the screen will come on ..and it will say call status on the left bottom corner..but wehen i click on call status nothing happens..i have to wait for the actual incoming call notification to pop up...
the person on the other end said it rang about 5 times..before it ever even rang once on my end...
does any1 know the problem..is anyone else having this problem..is there a fix?

I had a similar problem, 4 or 5 rings before my own phone (XV6700 Verizon) would ring. I uninstalled and reinstalled a dialer (Mogul Big Button from ppcgeeks) and it now answers after 1.5 - 2 rings. You might try re-installing your dialer or installing another one.
I can get the notification to go away if I call my voicemail, but it always comes back after a reset. I have absolutely no voicemails in my box, and I have tried the deleting the voicemail method.
Thanks for the help, it gets pretty annoying to call voicemail every time I restart.
Anybody got a fix? Haha thanks.
Hello all,
i have what appears to be a weird bug when I receive a phone call. The phone rings and pops up with the Incoming call screen with the three options to accept, ignore and ignore with text. When I choose ignore with text, it goes away just fine, but it doesn't seem to disconnect and pops up two more times. On the other end (the caller) it just keeps ringing until the third time (they don't know the difference) and then finally goes to voicemail.
I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or found a fix for this. Not really a huge deal, seeing i use all of 20 min a month of actual voice, but annoying none the less.
Thanks for any help and insight!
