Voice Mail and phone Issues

Hi,
I am not sure if this is an issue with the Black and Blue ROMs (I have used both 4.0 and 4.1) or WM6 or even a network issue.
Basically since I upgraded to WM6 my voice mail is working oddly. I am on T-Mobile UK and when I dial voice mail I get a message saying my voice mail number has been sent to my phone. I then get a network text message that asks to be deleted. I have deleted this message and switched the phone off and then back on.
However, when I access my voicemail it says the same message and I still get the text. I have tried to switch it on and off about 5 times with no change.
I can still hear my voicemail but it is a pain in the ass having to listen to the number message every time I call voicemail.
Also I have noticed when I go into the phone application and then close it down it remains in the background. I use SBSH iLauncher and when I check the task manager the phone still shows. It remains there until I select the forcibly close application option.
It never did this in WM5 only since I changed ROMs.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Regards

voicemail acess on Orbit _Vigin sim

Hi all
hope this is the right place!!
my phone is an Orbit XDA original WM6-O2
I have just started to use a Virgin sim card on my orbit.
Have managed to set up voicemail - but am having problems accessing the voicemail number
the idea is, you dial 222 and set up the voicemail - from that point on you then just press and hold 1 and then go straight to voicemail. However, when I try this it just dials 222 again and goes to the set up again.
I have managed to access the correct voicemail number by dialing *#67# -( it sends you the voicemail number as a text)and have then put this number manually into the voicemail contact.
this is where i get a problem... when i access the voicemail number or even try to dial it manually, it comes back with someone saying "calls to this number are barred"
I have done all of this with another virgin sim in a sony-erriccson phone and it worked correctly - even if i try that sim in my orbit, the same thing happens... someone saying "calls to this number are barred"
I wonder if this has something to do with my orbit settings? It is loaded with the original WM6 rom from O2
any help would be much appreciated
tech support from virgin are "getting back to me" in the next few days... but I was hoping that someone on here may have some solutions etc
many thanks
tony

Incoming calls not coming though via Google Voice

I have been using GV for a while and had not problems until this week. My phone has been unusually quiet. Turns out that I am not receiving my incoming calls at all. I only figured this out because I was getting GV vmail notifications but there were no missed calls in my call log.
Has anyone else had this problem/ Does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks!!!!!

I think that you need to go to the google voice page and have it forwarded to your phone.

Thanks for the reply Ruben but I already have it forward to phone. Until this last week. I can get GV to forward to home, work, etc.... It just does not want to forward/work on my cell. I have had the DI since launch date and it fx well till now.
I though that maybe it was b/c I rooted but then I removed/reverted to back to stock and still no luck. My wife and brother have the same issue.... ODD

If you make a call outbound, does the caller id on the receiver's phone have your GV number? IE: Does it GV work outbound but not inbound?
Have you tried to un-forward and then re-forward the GV?

All outbound calls work. Also when making an out bound call it will display my GV #in the caller id. I have tried un forwarding and then re-forwarding. I've even hard reseted the phone. uninstalled the app and tried to see if I can receive calls. Reinstalled the app, changed settings to ask b4 making calls, deleted my phone from GV and re-added it. So far no luck.

I am getting the same problem. No incoming calls, but can do outgoing calls.

Just tested with my DInc by calling via GV to GV of my friend's DInc, still working for us.

GV is still a bit of a work in progress. I have had some minor trouble with it in the past. Sometimes you need to reset your settings or just wait it out if its an issues with their servers. For the most part it has been problem free.

True... I had it when it was Grand Central....until now I have had an flawless experience with GV. Seems like once they transitioned from invitations their servers became bogged down.

[Q] T-Mobile caller id?

Is anyone having issues with their S III not displaying caller id on T-mobile?
After the bloatware subscription T Mobile Caller Id ran out it seems like most calls I receive now show no caller id info. I wonder if this a problem tied to that app, or something different.

Caller ID as in someone that's not on your contacts? Cause, that's a service you have to subscribe to I think. Otherwise...all my Gmail contacts show up when they call.

Called ID should be working fine but I believe you only get 7 days for free, I got rid of it cause I feel the app is just wasting my battery

Even if it is someone in my contacts, it still says unknown.

My caller id worked 2 times tops during my 7 day trial. One came with the name and the other unknown. Do I want to subscribe? That's a no brainer.

I'm running a rooted (mostly stock) rom and the tmobile subscription caller id is not there as an option on my phone. Therefore, I have never set it up. I have, however, noticed half a dozen people or so that are in my contacts that still show up as unknown when they call. If I call them once from my phone, it appears that my phone recognizes them the next time they call. What a pain. I've heard of several people having the same or similar issues. Hope they patch this stupid bug.

NO CID on T-Mobile
Caller ID stopped for me yesterday. I am not talking about the bloatware CID w/subscription. My work cell that is most definitely in my address book, is showing as "Unknown." Strange thing about this is that while on WiFi calling, if I call my work cell 1st, it will show the contact info. Calling 1st on the cellular network does not work. I am on hold with a CSR that is really trying but no success yet. She had me pull the battery and SIM. WTF?!?!?!

[Q] Incoming calls straight to voicemail

On my wife's GSM Galaxy Nexus, running JB 4.1.1, all incoming calls are getting forwarded directly to voicemail. I've tried quite a few things to remedy the issue, but to no avail. Here are some of the relevant details.
Phone worked fine for at least a week after the JB update.
She can place calls without any problem.
She can receive email and browse the web without issue, both on WiFi and on 3G/H.
I can forward her phone to our home number and the forwarding works perfectly.
We use Google Voice for our voicemail service. When I try to reset voicemail settings to our cellular carrier (AT&T), the phone does NOT seem to reset the voicemail numbers (they still appear as her Google Voice number). However, when I do remove Google Voice and then call the phone, I get a message that her voicemail is not set up. Which makes sense: we've never set up AT&T voicemail.
I've done a factory reset: calls still go straight to voicemail. And the voicemail number after a factory reset is STILL her Google Voice number.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you port the # to Google voice? I that would explain the settings sticking after reset.. It sounds like a GV issue and not a phone issue

No, we did not. I'd agree with you that it's a Google Voice issue...except everything was working fine up until one or two days ago. Calls both in and out worked without issue, as did voicemail.
Very strange. I'm going to contact AT&T to get their take on things.

AT&T seem to think its a bad SIM card. I'm going to pick up a new one tomorrow.

last time this happened my girlfriend somehow added me to the auto reject list lol

I'm not sure if you said calling to google voice number wouldn't work or calling the mobile number...
If it's the mobile, its not a gvoice issue..
I really would not think that a sim card would cause the problem itselt, but it might reset your forwarding options... I dont know.. you can try this if it doesn't work...
dial #002#
this will reset ALL of your call forwarding options just in case something is wrong / corrupt there... after you verify that calls to the number work, then you can setup the conditional call forwarding..

Great idea. I thought something similar, but when I try to enter any call forwarding codes (like the one above), I get "Call forwarding connection problem or invalid MMI code." Again, this leads me to think that perhaps the sim card really is the problem. If not, it's an AT&T network setup issue.
I'll post again later today with whatever progress I've made. Thanks for trying to help!

Picked up a new sim card, and it completely resolved the problem. Strange, but whatever. As long as the wife's phone is working, all is well!
