Just go to phone options>services. Click on call forwarding and click "get settings". Then change "forward after" to 30 seconds (or however long you would like)
i dont have call forwarding in phone options services. im on sprint not sure if that makes a difference. could it be somewhere else?
search google for "GSM *# commands", you can do it but you will have to type in a long number like *61*(the number to divert to)*(the amount of time before diverting Max 30secs)# then press send,
If you change your rom to a non standard you will probably get the forwarding/divert menu back !
Or just phone your operator and ask for the 30secs max

That is a horrible response to a valid question. Its fine if you don't know but don't waste our time with a rotten answer please.
legends! been wondering why it only rings twice pretty much keep meaning to ask vodafone wats going on. sorted now cheers!
well i found sort of a hack. as a matter a fact this is a great little app that not only extends the ring times but does so much more. search this site for diamond tweak.
anyway thanks

I am not sure about Sprint but I am on at&t and extending ring times is server dependant and only your carrier can extend these times. So instead of ramming your head into a wall trying to find a hack for it just give customer service a call and tell them you need your ring time extended. at&t did it for me and now I ring for 30 seconds instead of the normal 15 seconds.

Did you even try to do it without calling the carrier? I'm on AT&T and was able to do as the tman1425 describes. It was 20 sec, I changed it to 30 sec. I'm running the leaked AT&T ROM, so nothing special...

LOL, guess I just learned something new. Thanks.
The caller on the other end says it rings all the way through (5 rings and then to voicemail).
It has done this with several ROM's, the stock HTC cupcake, to JF 1.5, JACHero, and now I am on cyanogen's 3.62 ROM. The radio is 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I.
The phone will do this even with a clean wipe. No apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Check your call forwarding settings. Sometimes, they like to play with themselves and set it as "forward all calls to voicemail". These settings won't show it, because the changes are on the T-Mobile server, not your phone. Only having 2 rings sounds like it connects to the network and then gets pushed away from it, so most likely it's not a problem with your phone.
If you happen to have an old T-Mobile phone laying around, trying switching SIM cards and see if anything changes.
Figured it out. Ran a GSM code
*61*1[vm access number]*11*n#
n= seconds before forwarding. Set it to 25 and it rings all the way through.
Thanks for the info lukekirstein

Where would you run this code at? I want to be able to set my ring time longer so that it takes longer for it to forward to voicemail.

Open up your dialer and dial it like you would a phone number.
In my case I entered *61*18056377243*11*25# and dial. Runs the code and then in a few seconds it is done. But check to see if your voicemail number is different than mine.

Cool, was able to set the Voicemail to connect in 35 seconds. Thanks!
I get the error:
Call forwarding.
Connection problem or invalid MMI code.
I've carefully entered the code three times, always get the same reply.
I checked my voicemail number, and it's correct.
Any ideas?

What are you trying to do?
Trying to get my phone to wait 20-30 seconds before going to voicemail.
I get, maybe, 2 rings before people are transferred. If my finger isn't already on the button, chances are I can't answer the phone.
These are the codes I tried (as per the instructions above):
*61*18056377243*11*20# (for 20 secs) -and-
*61*18056377243*11*25# (not to go to voicemail)
18056377243 is my voicemail number.
Neither worked.

Are you on a flex pay account? Also, you should only need one 1 MMS number, because that's the immediate point it re-routes to voicemail.
re Flexpay, to be honest, I'm not 100% sure. The wife set all of this up before we were married and we've just continued it. I seem to recall a mention of something like that, but I could very well be wrong.
I'm assuming that this option wouldn't be available to FP customers. Would 611 be able to make a change to fix it? The 2 ring thing is seriously causing problems on this end.
TIA

Call forwarding is not available to flex pay customers and thus, custom MMS coding will not work. If this is the case, you should contact T-Mobile (either way, probably a good idea) and talk to them to see what might be causing the problem.
What ROM are you using? Some of the slower ROMS can create dialer lag.
Asked my wife. It is Flexpay. So that solves that.
Thank you so much for your reply.
That got us going in the right connection.
I am using Cyan's rom right now. But this was the way it was ever since we got into any 'Cupcake" versions (OTA or modded). My thoughts are the radio or a tower issue, but that's an uneducated guess. I rarely get phone calls anytime except when I'm home, so it's hard to pinpoint. So I followed your suggestion and tried to call 611 a short while ago. Got through to CS who walked me through some stuff (their basic scripted thing, all of which I've already tried), and it didn't work. So they tried to send me to tech support, and I guess it was either to late or they couldn't connect for whatever reason, so I have to call back in the morning.
Thanks again for heading me in the right direction.

No problem, glad I could help you out :]. Let me know how that goes!
hello everyone,is there anything that you can do to make your phone ring longer like 45 seconds or a minute? thx
i guess no one knows how to do this because i have no responses as of now
You mean ring longer at what?
i think he means he wants the phone to ring longer when a call comes in. instead of cutting off the cycle at ~30sec it would be ~1min. am i right TopDogg1?
yes,that is what i want. thx for any help i recieve

Sure, here's what I do, the instructions might be different based on your carrier.
Hit the green button, dial 611. When customer service answers, ask them to increase your ring time.
last pow off?ohf....
Hi, I had a similar problem and it was the setting for when a call was forwarded to voicemail. It turned out to be easily changed
On tmobile in the UK you can go into Settings and then Phone and choose the Services tab.
On here you can choose when the call is forwarded to voicemail and other conditions. The Kaiser reads the Network settings then you can change them and it will update the network for you.
Cheers
John
how do you do that under network i didnt fine anything pertaining to that
How's it work?
It even works when the phone is off. I don't know how it works? What's telling AT&T "hey, route this to Google instead"?
It changes your call forwarding preferences. That is an AT&T setting back at home, so is independent of the state of your phone.
A call goes to voicemail if your phone is busy or doesn't answer. How that's handled is done at the AT&T end.

So the setting you set in your phone actually gets transferred to ATT, then. That makes sense.
I'm not getting notifications when I receive a voicemail. Everything seems to be set up properly, and I'm able to see and play my voicemail in visual voicemail, but no notification comes through on receiving a voicemail. If I reboot my phone when a voicemail is waiting for me, I do get a voicemail notification when the phone boots back up, but I don't get notifications for any subsequent voicemails (unless I reboot again).
Are others seeing this behavior? And does anyone have any clues what might be causing it?
Hmmm. I also have the same problem, i won't see the voicemail unless i reboot.
Hmm this happened to me once, thought it was a quirk. Not good...
T-Mobile if that matters. First slow LTE, now this. Ugh.
I'm on T-Mobile too. Stinger051, are you also? Maybe this is a T-Mobile specific issue? OnePlus didn't seem to have any clue about it.

There's a similar thread on the OP forums, but I can't recall if it was T-Mobile specific or if it was all kinds of carriers around the planet. If I find it again, I'll post a link. I'm on ATT and as far as I know (it's really tough to know things you don't know ), I'm not having the problem. In fact, I get double-notifications, one is the regular symbol (is it an infinity symbol?) for a message on my VM, and the other is the ATT VVM app symbol.
Now and then I don't get a "so&so called" notification along with it, but I always "seem" to get the VM / VVM symbols. When I listen to VM using the 1 on the keypad (now and then), I never find something I hadn't gotten a notification about so it "might" be carrier specific.
Sure enough, just found another voicemail I had no idea about.
I submitted a bug about this:
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/not-getting-voicemail-notifications.478018/
Is anyone else noticing this problem? If so, please add to the bug thread on the OnePlus forum.
How to get voicemail notification
Hi everybody. I figured out a fix. Even though I have spent a lot of time on OnePlus Chat, was told to wipe the phone, and spent a remote session with One Plus they could not figure out the issue. Simply turning off "Visual Voicemail" in the phone app completely fixed the problem (even though the OnePlus people told me to make sure it was on!). In the phone app, go to Settings, then Call settings, then select your SIM card (1 or 2), then Voicemail, then switch Visual Voicemail to off. You will get voicemail alerts normally, but now you will not have visual voicemail. There is a T-mobile Visual Voicemail app that you could try to use instead, though. Hope this helps
