Is there any way to enable call forwarding on a Verizon Droid 3 while on the AT&T network?
When I attempt to enable it through the code on the dialer, I get a message that "Call forwarding is disabled when off the Verizon network"
I use call forwarding on a regular basis; guess I should have researched a little bit more and gotten the XT860 instead?
Thanks for any insight.....

I am using the Verizon variant of the Moto X on T-Mobile and cannot get any visual VM services to work- I have tried YouMail and GV, and tried to manually set up both and I get an error that states "call forwarding cannot be set up while roaming"
I am sitting smack dab in the middle of Tmo LTE. Is there a way to by pass that. No matter what I try all voice mails are just stuck at the carrier.
Thoughts?
Thanks
If I insert a friends sim card, and link my GV acct, can I put sim in and link still, or will his number be stuck to GV?
Have you updated to 4.4.4?
Pre 4.4.4 the Verizon version didn't work well with GSM.
I have the same phone with 4.4.4 and downloaded the T-mobile visual voice mail app from Google Play and everything works fine. I'm not familiar with a Google Voice setup but my visual voice mail works with my t-mobile number.
Verizon seems to have blocked Google Voice on the XT1060. I tried setting it up and it wouldn't work on either a T-Mobile SIM or Verizon SIM. They're forcing you to use Verizon Visual VM, but I'm not sure what exactly is causing it. With a Verizon SIM, the error message is different. It basically says that the phone can't be setup for GV.
There are Verizon permissions in system related directories, so that's probably how.
No idea what I did, but we went camping this weekend and I was roaming most of the time, didnt make any calls or anything.
However I did miss a call today and sure enough, I received the VM on google voice. All is right in the world now, no idea how i fixed it though.
Please post questions in the Q&A section

Hi everyone new to the nexus 6 jumped ship from the Note 4 after months without root or lollipop. I'm loving the nexus 6 Roms but have come across some problems leaving me with only stock or clean ROM available. Aosp Roms ex. Euphoria, chroma. No voicemail visual or regular. Whenever anything happens with voicemail I get cryptic texts repeatedly. Verizon support was no help. I thought maybe it was a carrier issue. Cm based ex. Candy, cm12 unofficial. Bluetooth audio is highly sped up and skips around when connected in my car regardless of app. Both problems have been driving me crazy. Any help appreciated. TL;DR aosp has no voicemail, CMs audio plays sped up.
the voicemail app that comes on the nexus 6 from Verizon only works with the factory ROM. and if you use Google voice for voicemail you have to disable advance calling (volte) for google voicemail to work cause it will just keep ringing on the other persons end if volte is enabled
Any ideas on cm 12s Bluetooth problem? I was trying to avoid Google voice if I could. Also does volte have to be disabled on just the phone or through Verizon?
Wow I did not even realize it wasn't working. This could be an issue. I hit *86 and had two messages.

For those of you that want to use Google Voice Mail just forward your number thanks to Red Leathermen for this:
If you are having trouble configuring Google Voice as your voicemail service on Verizon you can make the switch manually by dialing all three of these activation codes:
*71[Your Google Voice number] -- This turns on Conditional Forwarding, which should transfer calls to your Google Voice number*when your Verizon phone is busy or unanswered after 3 to 6 rings.
*90[Your Google Voice number] -- This turns on Busy Transfer, which transfers all calls that would hear a busy signal to your Google Voice number.
*92[Your Google Voice number] -- This turns on No Answer Transfer, which transfers all calls unanswered after 3 to 6 rings to your Google Voice number.
To Deactivate the Call Forwarding, dial *73 [Send]
To Deactivate the Busy Transfer, dial *900 [Send]
To Deactivate the No Answer Transfer, dial *902 [Send]

Does this fix also work with HD voice enabled?

Well it is working for me on a custom ROM. what's kind of odd is my wife has a note 4 and just got the upgrade to lollipop. She can no longer configure her phone too use Google Voice consistently.
we were screwing around with it for almost 2 hours yesterday. I finally threw up my hands and said this is a totally stock device take it to the Verizon store and ask them. Use Google Voice is in the settings!
But to answer your question yes. she can call me and if I pick up its HD. if I don't answer it goes to voicemail but it will ring 2 or 3 times extra on her end while it stops ringing on my end.

I've been using Google for voicemail with advanced calling enabled on my phone. I just had to reforward it by manually dialing the numbers.
I had the moto x before the nexus6 and google voicemail worked as in when someone called and I didn't pick up or gave them the dismiss button. since switching to a Verizon branded n6 with advanced calling enabled there calls just keep ringing when I don't answer or give them the dismiss button. had to switch to the voicemail app that came on the phone so that I can use advance calling.

I switched my Droid Turbo over to ST a few months ago and can not get the voicemail to work. If I dial the *86 or the cell number it think it is calling Verizon's system and not ST.
Is there a was to point the phone to ST so I can setup voicemail?
I am in an unlimited data contract with Verizon and have been using Hangouts for my incoming and outgoing calls for the last 1.5 years because I prefer to use Hangouts/Google Voice for various reasons.
Today I tried placing a call through Hangouts on my VZW data connection and instead of the standard Hangouts dialing sound, I got a standard dialing "tone", followed by "Thank you for choosing Verizon Wireless. Your call can not be completed as dialed".
It seems like they are no longer allowing calls through Google Hangouts. Outgoing calls is all I have confirmed at this point.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Nexus 6 running Stock Lite ROM (6.0.1), stock kernel, May security update bootloader and radio.

sounds like your unlimited data might just be limited. anyways, its worth giving verizon a call, to find out. hangouts dialer works fine here on my nexus 6, with tmobile. both incoming and outgoing.
i turned off my wifi and made a call over 3G on verizon and it rang like a normal ring, and the call went through.
Hi all,
I just received my new watch, I love it so far and the battery life is great.
I got a new sim for the watch (prepaid sim) and I can call and pair my watch via data.
I do have a problem when trying to enable call forwarding option from the watch itself.
I get on the phone (LG V10) the following error -
"Call forwarding, Connection problem or invalid MMI code"
When I enable call forwarding directly from my phone to my watch it is working fine but I want to have the option to do so from my watch in case I forget the phone and
can't reach the phone to enable call forwarding directly.
Thanks in advance for you help,
____

What version of the watch are you using? The AT&T version (W200A)? I wonder if it is related to your service/network provider on your phone. Which provider are you using? Which prepaid SIM for the watch? I'm using the AT&T version of the watch(with a Truphone SIM) and Cricket (which uses AT&T network) on my phone without issues. I wonder if the call forwarding codes sent to a phone on the AT&T network would cause problems for Sprint or Verizon, if that is your provider.
LG also has call forwarding app that may help, but I haven't tried it. Link is below.

Hi,
I got the W200 unlocked version, its the European version since I don't live in the state.
I was thinking about the option that the watch prepaid sim not supporting Call forwarding but I'm not doing call forwarding from the watch to the phone, its vise versa.
The phone sim is not from the same cellular provider as the watch sim.
The only thing I can think of is what you mentioned that the watch is sending a call forwarding code that the phone doesn't understand.
I'm not an expert in the matter but it could be that if the watch sim does not support call forwarding it will not send the proper code to the phone as well.
P.S.
I love the app you sent on the link for Call forwarding, its really nice.
Thanks for your help,

I'm guessing you get the same error with the LG app? If it's a MMI code issue you may be able to use an automated app that works with Android Wear to initiate the call forwarding. Check out the thread below....
