[Q] Rejecting calls and Voicemail - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
I have an E250K note II phone (purchased from Korea). I had all sorts of problems with it
- korean apps that i couldnt remove (even after rooting)
- voicemail option (number 1 button), does not work
- OLLEH logo on bootup
- when i get a call, and reject it, it hangs up on the caller, not forward to the VM (my mobile provided reset my account 5 times, no help)
all sort of things
now i installed the Milan 3.0 ROM, and it was magic, EVERYTHING got fixed, with the exception of, receiving a call, and rejecting it
I think it is a feature in the ROM that i cannot find out a solution for
I think the Milan ROM is a chinese one, but it is way better than the stock korean one
So now, what i am looking for, is if someone calls me and i cant pickup, and i swipe the reject button, i want the caller to be able to go to voicemail, instead of hanging up on them
when i even look at the call log, it shows, "cancelled" as the call status
I am not looking for google voicemail or something like that..
i just want the basic functionality of the phone to work i guess.
so i am pretty sure there is something, a hack, or something that would allow the forward calls when busy to VM
when not available or unreachable, it takes the caller normally to VM, it is the call forward when busy is what i am having trouble with
Any help with that, i would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

wow 86 views.. and no one knows....
I seriously need help from anyone please.
Thanks

I'm interested in this too. I wasn't aware that rejected calls didn't go to voice mail until recently and that's not what I wanted to happen.
Edit:
Hmm. Maybe this depends on where the call originates from. I just tried calling my phone from Skype and call reject sent it to voicemail, but when I get a forwarded call from work it just hangs up.
Can anyone else confirm?

anyone cares to chime in and tells us something on how to fix this?
is this caused by ROM maybe?
I tried a US rom made for the 7105 models, (i didnt install the modem), and the voicemail option VANISHED, got back to the original rom i had, VM is back, but back to square one, which is hanging up on rejected calls, normal calls that is.

How do I send selected callers directly to voicemeail

Hi, All,
I've searched every permutation I can think of and I still haven't been able to find a solution.
I have been receiving "robo-calls" on my T-Mobile Touch Pro 2. I would like calls from this number to go directly to voicemail without ringing my phone.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks!
Call Firewall may be exactly what you're looking for.
Cool. i'll be downloading this. I've got the same 1-800 number calling me like 4 times a day.

[Q] How many times does your phone ring?

In the past two days it seems my phone has been acting up. I can give you some information about it. I hope this is enough.
Phone - Epic 4g
Firmware Version - 2.3.5
Baseband Version - S: D700.0.5S.EI22
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-CleanGB-MTD-gb805fd3
Build Number - CleanGB-MTD-1.0.5
Hardware Version - D700.0.5
The phone has not been ringing. When I say has not been ringing I mean I am not receiving calls. This could be due to two reasons. 1. The person is either hanging up before the 5th ring(this seems to be the magic number for my phone to actually ring according to some self tests performed today). 2. My Google Voice is picking up before the 5th ring and the people are hanging up. Now I am also not receiving notifications of missed calls. My wife has ranted at me the last two days about not picking up her calls to which I reply I had no clue that there were calls to where I show her my call log and the lack of her calls. I have called Sprint and went through about 20 minutes of back and forth and a reset a couple of times then a punch in of a ## 6 digit number # and did a MSID input. The Sprint tech said that the phone was ringing on his end and when I picked up said it took a while but he did a few things and then it seemed to have sped up on his end. Now after hanging up with him proceeded to call my phone from the wifes and it still takes 5 rings for it to pick up. Is there anything I could do to fix this. Is this an issue on CleanGB. Thanks for the replies. Let me know if you need anymore information from me.
im just taking a stab here but I think I remember reading this is a GV problem and had something to do with GV settings . Like I said not sure but you might wanna start there.
That is what the Sprint guy started off saying. How would I go about fixing that? Do I need to uninstall Google Voice? Sign out of Google Voice? or what I am willing to try anything right now.
I don't use Google voice, but if it's easy enough to uninstall & install I'd try removing it and see if problem persists. At the least you can tell if it is the problem or not

Uninstalled
I have basically restored my phone back to factory. I am on EL30 now. I uninstalled google voice that way. I also went to google voice on the web and fixed my voicemail on there. My phone still wants to ring 5 times before it shows me I have a call coming through, however I also do not have any voicemail at all now. After about the 8th ring it gives me a This caller is unavailable message followed in spanish then an error 261 message. Gonna call sprint again in the AM and see if they can reset something for me.
VM app try phonefusion its what i have been using and it works great i didnt really like google voice i just need voicemail i dont need something thats going to record my calls and text messages
as far as your phone ringing i had this problem a while back and i think it had to do with a cell tower not sending the call out right or something like that anyway ask tech support how the towers are responding in your area
Thanks
I will ask them about the towers today when I call. I have to call them now I have no voicemail at all. The sprint voicemail isnt picking up anymore.

[Q] Problem with Receiving/Retrieving Voicemail on GSM GNex Using AT&T

***** FIXED ***** CALLED AT&T TO RESET VOICEMAIL ***** PLEASE REMOVE THREAD *****
I am using a stock GSM GNex, unrooted, and I noticed, when I receive calls, the caller does not go to voicemail and when I attempt to check voicemail, I am told that I do not have a voicemail box. This is a new problem, because before, I had voicemail and I set it up using AT&T. When I long press the number "1" on the dial pad I get a recording that says to enter the phone number of the party you are trying to reach. I enter my phone number and it says that the number is not listed. I can receive and make calls to anyone no problem, but voicemail all of a sudden stopped working. I went into the phone settings and checked the phone number listed as my voicemail number, it is not the same as my regular phone number, so I changed it to my number and I was getting a busy signal when I tried to check my voicemail after that. Any ideas??? I don't think calling AT&T will do me any good as they think I am using a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. Please help, I need to get voicemails if I don't get to the phone in time!!
Thanks
I'm not sure how to fix your problem but, have you tried google voice as your voicemail client? Maybe you can use that instead.
To be honest I want to fix the issue and I don't want to use Google Voice. When I did a search before posting this I read a lot of people were using that service, but I want to get the real problem fixed. Thanks though.
Does anyone think the problem could be because I have a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket as my main phone on my plan, and that phone uses visual voicemail? And somehow now the phone won't activate voicemail because of that? When I dial my number and call myself, I get a busy tone.
1) Your VM number is either incorrectly programmed into the phone, or whoever set up your account didn't provision you with the VM feature. Call your carrier, they can verify with you whether your phone is correct or it's their system. No one on XDA can't help you with a shortcut.
2) Get Google Voice. Carrier VM systems are utter crap by comparison. That is the "real" solution to your "real problem".
The voicemail number is the same as it was when I set it up the first time. BTW, using Google Voice is not the "real" solution to my "real problem". If you don't know the answer to the question or you think no one else here will, you don't have to emphasize your love of Google Voice, I just don't want to use it so I am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thank you.
Oh, and maybe you should change your user name if you hate AT&T so much.

Google Voice & AT&T JELLY BEAN

When I was using stock ICS from AT&T with my S3 the call log history on google voice would show the GV connect phone numbers in my call history instead of the phone numbers that I was calling. Can anyone with stock Jelly Bean AT&T tell me if this is still the case with AT&T JB ? This is a deal breaker for me as being able to see actual real phone numbers in the call history is a pretty basic function of the phone.
I'm on stock JB AT&T and am still seeing the GV relay numbers in the Call Log, no change from ICS.
There's a setting the JB version of Google Voice to show the Voicemail Display could that be off?
I'm looking for the apparantly missing Call settings page for forwarding the calls to GV for transcription......
Stan more than likely it will fail to forward to GV and you have to set the number manually. Also for voicemail service mine says "My Carrier" but it uses GV. No idea why, but GV works if you put it in manually.

I must have had a brain fart and forgot that Call Settings moved from the logical Network Settings menu to the sort of forgettable Dialer Settings menu in ics/jb. I really think that it should be in both.
I upgraded using the root injected version from MrRobinson and Odin, that keeps my apps and settings so that I didn't have to reconfigure Google Voice.

This is so disappointing. Do you folks think Samsung might fix their buggy ROM on Google Voice call log soon?
If not, what's the best option? I suppose just to go CM10 ? (assuming other stock ROM derivatives might also have this problem?)
If I go CM10 by following the steps listed in the CM GS3 wiki, it will be easy to unroot and relock in case warranty is needed, right? (the wiki had huge warning fonts regarding voiding warranty).
Really hope to know what route you guys take. Google Voice is my only number known to others, and I have to call using that, and the current call log is useless, and this is 2012 with a flagship android phone ....
Thanks.

You just have to configure it manually, just like the original rom. Put your Google number into the forward number settings. Even though it will say that My Carrier is the answering service, select Google at least once and Google WILL BE the answer services, and you will get messages transcription in the Google voice app. If you set Google voice to do all calls or ask you how you want to call it will bring up a dialogue box. I don't use the incoming call keypad stuff, but I assume that they would work on a incoming Google call.

GV voicemail actually worked for me, as I initially set it up by using the code provided by GV website. My concern is with the called numbers shown in the call log. They are relay numbers not my contact numbers ..... Never had this with my old Nexus One.. And I see many complaints if you search for "google voice call log numbers, galaxy s3 or galaxy note II". Some claim CM10 fixes this, but would like to get some insight into this before I void the warranty for this .... Why can't Samsung get things right out straight

I went back to CM10. AT&T Jelly Bean was awful. I couldn't get over the hideous status bar at the top with Green color and & AT&T spam. Also dialer is complete garbage if you want to use Google Voice. Everything is working for me on CM10 except I have no bass on blue tooth.

while the phone in the phone's call list IS a routing number, the calls' correct number are recorded in the GV widget's PLACED list. You have to use the new "Show All Labels" to get there.

Could you point me to the particular CM10 version you use with ATT GS3? Did you follow the CM wiki direction ? Also, I suppose the route back to stock/lock/unroot is easy in case we need warranty, right?
I don't care ICS/JB... as long as there are no known issues/lags/fcs, and GV voice mail and call log display work as they should (as with N1 in 2010 or even earlier...) --- I can't believe we have to work so hard to get that ...
Thanks!
I had to remove voicemail from my phone in the Voice settings page. Then I had to add GV voicemail back to my phone with the forwarding code via GV. Now I am working, though it seems to take a lot of rings to kick to voicemail. Like 10 or so.
According to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35616192&postcount=29
Some users (on Verizon?) are seeing it work correctly. This leads me to believe that some builds of 4.1.1 for the S3 may have this functioning correctly.
Some questions:
Does anyone know of any ROMs for the S3 that have the correct behavior with Google voice that work on ATT?
Can we take the dialer from the Verizon S3 and use it on an ATT S3?
Any other suggestions for resolution?

This can be made to work by using a ROM based on a canadian base:

Answering calls on AT&T w/Google Voice

My GF has an AT&T GS3, and is having fits answering calls thru Google Voice. When a call comes in, the phone says the call is from an unknown number and makes her open keyboard and choose to accept the call, and often calls get missed. My I-9300 does not do this, so I figure it is something AT&T has tweaked on phone.
Has anyone else had ths problem? I have looked through everything, and can't find a way to remove the additional step in answering calls.
Thanks!

Log in to Google voice on a pc. In options, uncheck the call screen option. Fixed.
