View Full Version : Why dose it not ring for longer

A simple question (I hope!)

It seems that my XDA only rings for about 3 rings before going to the voice mail. Does anybody know how to tweak the settings so that it rings for longer to give me a chance to answer the call.

Thanks in advance.

I'm also interested in knowing this even if I suspect its a carrier setting and not a XDA one...

Like Dragonli said, itś a carrier setting. There are special codes to do so. Don't know if they are different from carrier to carrier. Normaly the values are between 5 and 30 seconds.
Just take a look at your providers homepage and search for the string.
You can also try

**61*Phonenumber**Timevalue in sec (5,10,15,20,25 oder 30)# to turn it on
##61# to turn it off
*#61# to check.

This are the numbers for Germany. Hope that it works...
Regards

Stefan

In the US for T-Mobile it is:

**004*+15203319999**_ _#
Instead of _ _ put in time before forwarding, 10-30 seconds in increments of 5 seconds

Instead of 5203319999 put in the lead number for your voice mail (varies by location).

Thanks All.

I checked with my network and it's exactly the same for TMobile UK as it is for Stefan in Germany.
