I just bought a new V20 (model US996). Could someone tell me how to block Caller ID on outgoing calls? Found instructions at the link below but my phone doesn't have the "Additional Settings" shown. Thanks in advance!

I should add that I haven't bought a sim card yet for this phone as I haven't settled on a carrier. Would that make the difference? (I'm completely new to smartphones. This is my first one.)
Additional Settings shows up on my T-Mobile version.
Each carrier seems to have their own set of options or lack there of.

Does this mean that if I buy a T-Mobile Sim Card, it will (somehow?) programme the phone to turn this option on? Or is it that LG programmed it at the factory for the H918 (T-Mobile) model? Or are both of these true? Sorry to pepper with questions. I'm really ignorant of all this right now.
If a T-Mobile Sim won't give me this option, how do I get it? Root the phone? Thanks for your help!
Just dial *67 before the number you want to call

Thanks. But that's a pain to do on every call. I'd rather dial a prefix to turn ON Caller ID when I want it. Any clues on how to get the missing "Additional Settings" to show up on the model 996?

Hi!
I bought two LG IQ cell phones from telus. Those phones are for my kids,and right now they don't need a data plan. They will probably use some Internet on wii fii , so I would like to know how can I block Internet connection.I don't want to pay for connection. Any ideas how to do it? Thanks

your current settings may be locked though; if they are I will hunt down the registry settings to unlock them.
Those smartphones are new to me Thanks for help I will try this. I have another question though.I have notice that I have to pay extra money every month to have caller ID,so I am wondering if there are apps with caller ID? Thanks
What do you mean by caller id? if you have a persons name and number in your contact list when they call their name will show up. I would not pay for caller id.
ok Thanks again for your help!

Actually, I have same question too. I don't have CallerID feature. When people call, it only shows "Unknown", even I have that phone # and name on my contact list. Any solution? Thanks.
What would be the easiest way to disable incoming phone calls on the tab? I'd like to be able to make calls but not receive them.
Naturally if disabling only the inbound is impossible, I could live with disabling outbound as well.
Data should work normally as well as contact syncing with Exchange (not sure if it's related in any way to the phone...).
Current firmwares:
PDA: JME (roto v3)
PHONE: JHA
CSC: JME
You could set your call forwarding for all calls to go to a disconnected or invalid number.

Hmm.. yes why not... theoretically.
The thing is, thought, that I have multi/dual sim, so if the call from my tab is forwarded to a number not in use, the caller will get the "number not in use" message. This would make my primary phone useless and would mean I can't receive calls on my phone either.
Still think disabling break in traffic on tab is the only way to go...
Bump bump.

It can't go to voicemail because I want to answer the call on my Desire Z. I simply don't want a call to ring on my gal tab at all.

I don't know how the network sees my dual SIM cards but I can't call forward to my own number from the tab. It just gives me an error message.

I would probably try flashing the radio from the TMo US Tab, as this is known not to support voice calls. This would of course disable both incoming and outgoing, and you'd do so at your own risk as it could end up bricking your Tab (though I'm doubtful of this, since TMo US Tabs will work with the Euro Tab radio).

Dave

Have you lost your Voicemail number?
Do you not know what the heck it could be??
To solve this problem, simply do the following:
1) Open dialer
2) Dial: *#67#
3) There is your voicemail number.
P.S: Not everyone's voicemail is the same number. Reason the code is the best reason.
Please move this to general.

good tip. wrong forum
Not necessarily. If you have changed your call forwarding number (e.g. google voice) then it will show the google voice number, not the tmo number.

Interesting..
I for example have no number set at all.. my voicemail number is blank.
When I send that command, it gives me the phone number of my phone carrier's voicemail.
And yes, might be in the wrong place..
Im not a mod/admin.. i cant move it.
i dial 123 and it goes right to my vmail...
i use 123 as well
123 is what I use also, assuming visual voicemail isn't working.
You can call t mobile and ask for your voice mail number. If for some unknow reason they ask why you need it say google voice removed it. I had the same problem, no voicemail after update to 6 1 1, fixed with a phone call.

please don't start b.s, the code works well. If it doesn't work for you it's a different story.
so please stop making wrongful accusations that it does not work.
thanks a lot. worked like a charm
I think it all depends on if you still have T-Mobile as the carrier with your myTouch 3G phone. I have AT&T and the 123 code does not work with it. I think that is the same issue that the others are running into.
Any other clues or help you guys can give?
Worked in At&t for me. Thanks
Are there any ICS roms out there that have name display for call display? It seems every rom i flash it only shows the number and not the name. If anyone knows of a rom that has name display please advise. Thanks in advance.
It depends on your carrier and if they support it
Every ROM I've flashed always showed me Caller ID. Every ROM you've flashed didn't? Probably a carrier issue or you don't have Caller ID.

My carrier Rogers supports it. It is part of my plan. The only rom that gives me name display is the Nexus Xperia 1.0.1. But the battery life is not as good as other roms. Not sure why name display don't work on them? Remember it shows the number but not the name. But Xperia port shows both.

OK thanks I will try cm9

in fact I submitted the patch, it works (tested on fido), at least when someone is calling you, and you see the notification if the call was missed, but the minute you enter the call log the information disappears, someone might be interested to make not work that way (or I can try if I can find time and patience).
but CM9 is not officially out, you can get nightly builds or checkout Kalimocho's thread in dev forum.

Well the patch works in CM9 but yes i see what you mean how it reverts back to the number when you go view missed call. It is just weird that only CM9 and the xperia port show me name display. I have flashed GB and ICS roms and nothing. I just figure it is a feature i pay for with my plan so i would like to have it haha. Well thanks
codename android rom has the support.
To store the name display in call log make sure you use anything other then stock call log. Go dialer works and some other call logs
Doesn't this have to do with if you have caller ID or not, meaning on your phone plan?
Is Go Dialer any good btw? From the makers of GO SMS I'm assuming?
Have you turned it on under Phone -> Settings -> Additional Settings -> Caller ID? Whenever I flash a new rom I have to go and set all that up again, my carrier data doesn't load itself. Perhaps that will help. I've had Caller ID on all my ICS roms.

as the title states it is not CALLER ID. it is CALLER NAME (along the phone number). For quiet some time it was a premium feature on top of the traditional caller ID. Now I think it is the only Caller ID feature you get
Traditional caller ID : you get the phone number. the name is displayed iff (<=>) you have that phone number in your contacts (it displays what ever you have)
Caller Name Display (cnap) : you get the phone number + the name of the persone calling you (if you have it in your contacts that information is displayed, if you don;t you get what ever name is associated with that number, like the caller ID display in home phones).

that has to do with your own phone number (display it when ever you call someone or not. the 3 choice is let the network decide). nothing to do with incoming calls.

That setting is for showing your caller id on outgoing calls.
I'm using my 6T on AT&T. On my previous phone (an HTC One m7 that I used for 5 years), I used a MMI code to increase the time before unanswered calls go to voicemail. The code includes the phone number that the calls are forwarded to. I tried to get that number by using the code *#61# but it returned "Not Forwarded" on all call types. I dug into Call Settings>Call Forwarding and all the settings are set to "Off". If I go into any of the settings it prompts to enter a forwarding number. Is it just me or does everybody else's phone not show this info?
When I do get a call that goes unanswered, it is forwarded to voicemail and I'm notified and am able to retrieve it, either by calling my voicemail box or using the visual voicemail app. So voicemail is working normally. I just find it odd that I'm not able to get the forwarding number information. Is this because the phone is not AT&T branded/certified?
Do these MMI code things still work like they used to? Or have things changed & I'm not able to modify this setting any longer?
I am having the same issue. When trying the codes or going into settings I get the same results error. Never had this issue with my other phones. Did u add the IMEI to att? Just wondering cause I didn't. Using the imei of my galaxy s6.
