Forwarded Call - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

This morning I got seven phone calls from random phone numbers in new Jersey and new York. I think they came from 3-4 different phone numbers. Each time my phone would ring, it would show a quick popup message saying "Forwarded Call". What does this mean? I have call forwarding turned off

Someone is forwarding their calls to your phone number. Next person who calls, tell them to tell the person they're trying to call that they set the wrong number.

Theres a multicolor widget on TW4 that has 3 buttons on one of the screens. They relate to Text to speach while driving, sounds like one of them is on. Hope this helps
It's the driving mode, should be the car icon. Make sure it's off.

If you open Voice Talk, you can uncheck Driving Mode, that will turn off the voice for new notifications.
Lol this happened to me to when I first got this phone.

Even if car mode is off, and "driving mode" is still on in Voice Talk, you will still hear the Siri-esque voice. You have to disable "Driving Mode" from within "Voice Talk" to get her to shut up.
BTW, you can change what she greets you with when you say "Hi Galaxy" in the program settings. Mine says, "What the hell do you want now, John"
It's the rom that your using. The voice is Linda I think.

That's one thing I thought it sounded like. I stripped some of the Linda sounds from my Vibrant and brought them over to my GS2. I missed them.
I can't stand that voice and all of the texts and plug in sounds. Talk about wanting attention... Lol

Truth. She makes everyone trip out when I get a call/email/text.

Vibrate when call connects

Is there a way to get the phone to vibrate when dialed number connects.
Right now it plays a tune, so it knows its connected, however can that be tied to vibrate as well?
My old phone did this, and its great to not have to hold the phone to your ear if the connection takes a long time to get through.
if you flash the cm7 Rom it has that option. i dont think any of the others do though.
I use Go Contacts, which comes with Go Dialer , and it has that option ...
Stock dialer does this, settings, call, call alert, answer vibration

If you have root then search "vibralert" in the market.
Top app with lots of options.

I didn't have any messages on Tmo voicemail since I use Google voice. Press the message to call voicemail. Press 1 to send a message. Walk through sending a message to your mobile number. Once verified as sent, hang up. Call voicemail again and you will actually have a message. Listen to it and press 7 to delete. Icon should go away.

I am going to try this right now. I use google voice also and I have yet to find a way to get that voicemail icon out of the status bar. Hopefully this method will work. Thanks for the info,

[Q] answering calls

hey guys i've been having my sprint galaxy nexus for a few weeks now and i think this just recently started happening.
but when i get a call and i answer it the phone will say to accept the call press 1 to send to voice mail press 2...
can i turn this "feature" off?
dont really like having to pull up the dial pad every time i get a call.
Sounds like you are recieving a Google Voice call.
is that what it is
i thought maybe it was. i guess thats when it started happening. i logged off google voice and it still does it.
Yep google voice call. You need to disable call screening in the settings of the browser site.
