Phone Rings but I Only get the last of the rings

[parcou]

OK...

VZW-6800
Rom 3.22 (non-kitchen)
Radio 3.42.30

Not an issue with the rom or radio just background info. When I call my phone from the house or another person cell it rings 2-3 times and on the 3rd ring my phone will ring but on the 4-5 I will miss the call. I loose a lot of time to catch the call in this delay.

Is there a fix for this or do others have the same issue. Verizon said they cannot extend my ring time and I found the have this issue when I went to a PDA phone from my Razor cell phone...

Any Advice....

Sounds like reception. You probably already tried *228. Has this been a problem after flashing several different ROMS/Radios?

I have done the *228 but only to update my roaming #2. I do not know what they mean by update the programming so I skip that.

No this issue does have to do with the rom update I noticed this when I first got the phone when it was all factory. This was when I called Verizon to see if my ring time could be increased. They said no...

I don't know if this is the best advice, but it would offer a possibly working solution.

I remember someone saying about slot-cycle index settings, the delay of how often a cell phone polls the tower for incoming calls, can be changed.

You might be able to lower this in hopes of catching a call quicker... I don't know the (adverse) effects of doing so, you would have to ask around I suppose.

Do some research and ask before even attempting to change these PST settings.

After all, it may be a reception issue.


P.S. also watch the phone when you call it, you might have the vibrate, then ring option enabled... that delays the actual audio ring until after a few vibrations.
