View Full Version : phone turns on too slow

Is anyone else finding that their phone takes so long to turn on sometimes that they miss a call? On average my phone takes 2 full rings to start ringing itself. When it's 4 rings to voicemail, that halves the time I have to pick up the phone!

I find it takes 2-4 seconds to turn it on normally.

Anyone else with this issue? I'm running the latest LVSW.

If you go into the phone settings you'll see that you can adjust the amount of seconds the phone rings before forwarding to voicemail. The default is 20 seconds, but this can be increased to 30 seconds.

Also, you don't have to turn the phone on to answer a call, just hit the green phone button.

Another thing to do is to get a bluetooth headset, then you won't have to worry about having to fiddle with the phone to answer a call.

I would like to do that as well - but can't find the setting within my phone's options, can you give details how to do that?

Thanks

Go into Phone options ---> Services --> Call Forwarding and choose get settings. This should then give you a dialogue box where you can tell it how long to ring for before going to VM :)

Cheers,

Excellent - Thanks, mine was set to just 15 secs, now set it to 30 secs - much better.

Cheers

Anyone else with this issue? I'm running the latest LVSW.It's a common WM6 (and WM5?) problem that the Hermes has a few seconds startup delay when receiving a call. Don't think anyone has a solution yet.
