I am having a problem with speed dial setup using the Eclipse rom 2.0.3 (had same problem in 2.0.2). I wiped data/cache/dalvik before flashing.
If I long press a number in the dialer I am asked if I want to assign a speed dial contact. I pick my contact and the dialer closes. When I go back in and long press the number I am asked to set up the contact again. It doesn't stick.
Also, if I use menu-speed dial setup from the dialer the contact does not stick.
Any thoughts?

for some reason i cant dial 1 for voicemail, knowing me i probably hit something and changed a setting. how can i make it work again?
thanks
I would recommend you turn on 1's for all calls not just voicemail. Go to Start -> Settings -> Phone -> Services Tab. Scroll down to Automatic Prepend and press Get Settings. Enable Automatic Prepend for a 1 in front of all of your outgoing calls.
If you only want to do it for voice mail, go to Start -> Settings -> Phone. The first entry is the number to call for voicemail. Throw a "1" in there.
He's not talking about dialing a 1 before the number, he's talking about holding down the 1 key to access voicemail. Not sure what the issue is, works fine for me. What dialer are you using?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ahhh. I'll be quiet now.
the stock dialer with 3.35
I got the "2" working for voice mail but would be nice to have the 1 back, kinda used to it. Business is picking up alot and i need my voice mail waaaaaaa.
thanks gc, u2 ande
Go into Settings->Phone. What does it say next to Voicemail:
has my phone number......should i put a "1" in there? by itself?
Are you on Sprint or Verizon?
sprint.....
2 Things...
1. Is your phone number in this format xxx-xxx-xxxx or this format xxxxxxxxxx?
2. When you open the dialer and click Menu->Speed Dial, what's in there?
the "2" that I put in there earlier that dials my voice mail.
dosent have the option to use the "1" available is 3-99. the "1" must be set aside for the voice mail but it must have left town.
Did you install the sprint carrier cab? If so, did you install the new one that was updated a few days ago?
No still on 3.35
Wait you're using the 3.35 stock rom?
Yes sir, I thought i mentioned it earlier, sorry if i didnt.
And it was there working, and then suddenly just disappeared? Or it never worked?
it worked before and it just quit working one day. I brutally dropped my phone and dislodged the vibrate thing off the mainboard (made my skin cringe) but the phone works great still with the exception of the vibrate thing of course.
I dont know if dropping it is when it stopped working or not
Have you tried a hard reset?
If i do that i will update to the new rom, I just hate reloading everything
In the registry, navigate to "HKCU\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction\CDMA\VoicemailIcon"
What values do you have under that key?
Hi all on my touch pro when i press and hold down the number 1 for speed dial to my voicemail, it doesnt dial it. it just hangs there as if there is no number for the voicemail. Ive checked the settings and my phone number is there. All other speed dials work fine. I did a hard reset and it worked again, however when i restored a backup to my phone it messed it up again. My only assumption is that one of my registry tweaks messed it up. Does anybody know if there is a registry setting to fix the speed dial so I dont have to rebuild the phone from scratch again with all my settings. thanks so much
I'm currently running Froyo 1.70.605 with Radio MR2.5. When I press #1 key to access vm, it just hangs there and doesn't connect me to listen to my vm. I can see and access my VMs when I select the VM icon. But when I press #1 key, it doesn't work.
FYI..I did use Youmail a while back, and I cancelled and reset back to vzw VM.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Check your speed dial settings
Go into the phone dialer->Hit Menu->Speed dial->see what's under #1 - it should be *86. They have a page on YouMail's website for how to set it back if it's not.
Your phone probably doesnt have Voicemail set up under that key anymore. So when you are pressing 1 it isnt trying to call anything. I want to say the VM number is *68 or *86. So just put it as a speed dial under 1 and then itll fix you problem!
I can't remember if this existed on the stock Froyo dialer or not but you may also want to check the Dialer's settings.
Open Dialer then select Menu->Preferences. There may be options for Voicemail in there as well as Settings->Call Settings.
Or just fix the speed dial as mentioned.
Thanks for the suggestions. They seemed to have worked. Now having another problem. Will post question in another post.
Also instated of putting just *86 If you put *86pxxxx where xxxx is your pin number, it will put it in for you when you call so you don't have to enter your pin everytime.

Hi. I sent my rooted custom aospCMod Optimus V to my cousin as he wanted to take over my account. He says he's having problems changing the phone number to his area code. Will the phone have to be put back to stock just to change the number? Cheers. Ed
stock, or stock-based, like harmonia.
have him make a nandroid backup before flashing the froyo-based rom.
after froyo is installed, the ## menus in the dialer will work to activate, and so will the activate.apk
once the phone is activated and working with the new number, restore the nandroid if he wants to keep using aospCmod.
that rom is a little old... but it did work pretty well for me back before blarf came up with the IHO cm7 variant.
Thanks. Will have him do that and post how it goes. I also forgot to mention I changed the PRL. Will that be a problem too.? Thanks. Ed
the prl should be fine. good luck, should be relatively painless.
Got everything back to stock and now says "service is not available". Any suggestions? Thanks.
Still working on this. I am trying to make sure he doesn't have to mail this back to me. Tried reflashing stock ROM but the same "service not available". Shouldn't it launch a menu? The phone was working fine when he got it. This just started when he tried to change the number.
Should he unroot it?
Should he try Harmonia? Thanks.
Did he change the number before going back to stock? If he did they may have cancelled the service. That's the only way to get a new number as far as I know.

unrooting or Harmonia won't help.
it's possible data service is down in his area, it won't provision without a data connection. wifi probably won't work for that. vm is well known for data problems.
if his phone is programmed right with the new number, and vm set up his account on the phone, then his voice and sms service should work regardless of the data being available.
making a call to someone is a good test. *vm isn't, that works whether activated or not.
if voice is working, the phone is programmed, but it'll have to stay on stock ROM until it gets a data connection to provision 3g (it'll only show 1x at best until activate is run successfully.)
It is fixed.
He had it all back to stock and still nothing. Get getting "service unavailable" when trying to activate. Virgin actually helped him out. Here is what they sent and it got him up and running,,,,
Thanks for contacting Virgin Mobile Customer Care.

Nice!
Sent from my LG-VM670-CM7-BobZhome-Minimal Magic Full Morph.
excellent.
that's why it had to be on a stock or stock-based froyo rom like harmonia.
the gingerbread roms don't have the ## menus in the dialer, so no way to manually change the numbers. when you call vm to activate, they always have you enter the ##virgin# in the dialer and change those two settings and reboot.
glad it worked out!
Hi everyone:
I have google voice setup as the voicemail box, no problem
I however, use GV for international calls from the United States and I cannot for the life of me get it to work.
Regardless of the settings I use in GV for making calls:
Use GV to make all calls, do not use gv, only for international or ask everytime I call.
When I go to the dialer to make my call...I dial the number, hit the dial button, then nothing happens. The dialer is still open, hitting back does nothing, hitting setting does nothing. I can still hit the numbers and the numbers will show up, but doesn't look through history or contacts.
It seems like GV is just not intercepting the calls out or doesn't launch. I've tried reinstalling GV, tried reverting back to an older version. No dice.
Has anyone seen a problem with this or have a work around?
Regards,
MWC
