So, I switched plans and had to reset my v-mail on Rogers. Now, when I use the speed dial feature "1" the v-mail number is dialed but my password is not automatically entered. I did try the *86,,XXXX in v-mail settings and that did not work. Got a message that the number was invalid. I'm not sure what happened but it would be nice to restore this autodial feature. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

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

I use Youmail for my voicemail. I can't seem to set the voicemail speed dial key to use youmail's access number and get it to stick after a soft reset. I go to the Phone Settings, choose Services, then "Voice Mail and Text Messages". The phone then says it is reading the settings from the network and displays T-Mobile's voicemail access number under the "Voice Mail:" field. I change this to youmail's number, and click ok. The phone then says it's sending the information to the network. At this point the voicemail speed dial key correctly dials youmail's access number as long as I don't reset my phone.
Does anyone know how to make this setting stick?
Every ROM I've tried has this problem. I never tried doing this on the stock ROM, so I don't know if it's a problem with the custom ROMs or a T-Mobile problem.
I seem to have deleted my voicemail number off of my sim card. I can go into settings and add a voicemail number but if I try to I get a message like "unable to change voicemail number. If the problem persists contact your carrier." On top of that I don't want it set to my cell number because then I will have to enter my password everytime which I don't want to do. It was set to something else before. Is contacting T-mobile my only option or is there a way to retrieve and set the voicemail number again?
I set my cell phone number as the VM number but it never asks me for a password... Try it from your cell and see if you have any luck. If not, you will probably have to contact the provider.
I've always been able to just dial 123.. never prompts me for a pw.
I have been a t-mo customer for a looooong time though so I don't know if this is just something that has trickled down over the years.
if you are tmobile US the vm number is 8056377243.
that is the same number everyone on the american network has.
but what I'm wondering is, Why didn't you just call customer service? Or better yet GOOGLE it? I know it's a crazy concept but sometimes you have to think outside the box ey?
I have a Verizon Note 4 (N910V) that I had unlocked a few weeks ago and am using it on T-Mobile. I'm having a few problems that are REALLY annoying.
1) I can not use the dialpad while in a call. For example, "Press 1 for English" I hit 1 and it does nothing. I've tried all the numbers with different 1-800 numbers and it just does not work.
2) My voicemail does not work. When I press 1 for voicemail, I get an error. I tried calling my number, but to enter my pin I need the dialpad to work. I tried YouMail, but that didn't work either. I never originally setup my T-Mobile voicemail so that could be why YouMail isn't working though.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I'm pulling my hair out trying to google these problems.

Thank you for the help. Your link actually fixed my dial pad while in calls. It suggested to change the DTMF to long instead of short and it now works. As for the voicemail thing, I got it to work sort of. If I dial 123, it works just fine now. The only thing is, I can't seem to change the speed dial of 1 to the number 123. I tried and it said it was changed, but it still shows *86. I tried a few times with the same results each time. Is there another step I'm missing?
I haven't had to do this kind of thing to any of my phones in years. I wish I could help better. I just happened to remember changing APN settings was necessary and found that thread.
Awesome that fixed the touchscreen issue too!
i can not change that number
@GamerGuy89: how can you make Verizon Note 4 work with T-mobile?
i put the T-mobile simcard on it and it say "Not verizon Simcard". Signal is 0. Please help me!
And even i add another APN, but i can not change the number of voice mail from *86 to 123.
Thank you so much.
hi all.
i don't know why after updated to 5.0.1, i can not type *#06# to check my IMEI. When i key in that code on my keypad, the phone still there, nothing pop-up.
did my phone failed Rom or system???
Any input will be appreciated!
Thanks
I have a T-mobile T889v unlocked and on AT&T LTE rooted with DN4, everything is working great for the most part but voice mail. When I dial VM it keeps saying password not recognized. I've been searching threads to address this with no luck. I went to device settings and under my number it shows unknown... is this why VM does not recognize my password? If so how do I change it show it shows my number? Thanks for any help....

I wonder, since you've got a different carrier than the phone, if it is dialing the wrong number. From what I understand, you're have AT&T as your wireless provider, right? When I tried looking at AT&T's support forums, it shows to dial your number to access your voice mail. So, when you press and hold 1 to speed dial your voice mail, is it dialing your number? If it's not your number, first try dialing your number manually and see if your password works that way.
Now, I don't have DN4 so I'm not sure what kind of settings you'll have. For me, I use Team UB's Lollipop release and I can open my dialer, go to settings, and there is a "Call Settings" menu where I can change the number it dials for Voice mail. It's gotta be somewhere in the dialer settings, I assume.
I hope this helps.
All you need is your Carriers Voicemail number and place it in the Call Settings.
