Hello,

A lot of my calls are going directly to voicemail and I cant firgure out why. Anyone else having this problem that may be able to shed some light on this for me?

I searched but didnt find anything on this topic.

Thanks in advance!

get your msl if you don't have it, and hit ##778# and go to modem settings and change your slot cycle index to 1.

Does this only happen when you have data active? Are you in a 1X area?

did you possibly turn off the phone? (option in settings for the phone radio) ...just a thought...

Thats exactly what I was thinking!!!!!! Ahahahaha

No for real... There are tweaks for this. You need to search them but I know you can make tweaks to the ring delay in apps like Dimaond Config and Advanced config.... Both I think? Be glad you dont have the VZW version. This ring light in the dpad is crazy. Dances around for like 30 seconds... Then the damn thing rings. Good thing I always hve th phone in front of me.

I dont know... Im going back into my hole now......

Also, I wonder how changing out the radio would affect that? Anyone with exp with this issue ever try solving by swapping radios?

I had this problem constantly with my sprint tp activated on verizon. The incoming call delay causes it to go to vm after like two rings. The problem is caused by the HTC dialer skin. Switching to the wm dialer cures the problem, it rings instantly with that setup (a solid 2-3 rings faster than the HTC dialer)

As I understand it from the manual, when the data connection is open (like push email or downloading), the phone is automatically disconnected and all calls go to voicemail. If anyone knows a good way around this so that the phone overrides or works with data connected, I'd really like to hear about it!

that's not true (at least not on my phone anyway)

I just opened a data connection on mine & then called myself from a landline & it rang through just fine.
