[Q] Call Forwarding time setting in Ice Cream Sandwich - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Don't know if this is a stupid question or not
Running Ice Cream Sandwich I9100XXLPQ
The default call forward time to voice mail is set at 15 secs, I would like to change this, where do i do it? can't find it anywhere

I'm not exactly sure, but I think your carrier handles that. On vodafone UK ##22# or ##021# should disable voicemail forwarding altogether.

Can it be changed? I would like to extend it to 30s

Found the answer on the Vodafone UK website - Hidden under messaging rather voicemail or calls but hey....
'You can set your ring time to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 seconds.
Tap **61*121*11* into your phone as if you're making a call.
Next enter a time between 5 and 30 (the number of seconds in multiples of 5)
Press # and then the call button. Don't put the phone to your ear - just look at the display until you see a message confirming your ring time has been set.
For example, **61*121*11*25# followed by the call button would set your ring time to 25 seconds.
This will only work if your mobile phone's on the Vodafone network and you have voicemail set up. To check if you do, tap in 121 and press the call button. If you don't have Voicemail, you'll hear a message asking if you want it to be connected.'

Incoming calls

How do i get new incoming call settings
what kind of settings?
if you looking for ringtone setting for incoming calls it's....start/settings/sounds and notifications/notifications/ and then in the event tab select phone;incoming calls
if your looking for how many times it rings before voicemail... you need your msl number.
goto keypad on screen hit ##pst# then select edit and type in your mls number to unlock. hit the view tab to get to I think modem settings. somewhere in there is where you want to change your slot cycle index. default is 2. 1 is faster and 0 is the fastest.
hope this helps.

How can I make the dialpad show by default for incoming calls

Is there any way to force the dialpad to appear by default when an incoming call is answered? I receive all of my calls through Google Voice, and I like the call screening where I press 1 to answer, 2 to send to voicemail, etc.
Now, with the photon, when a call is received and I swipe to answer, I need to then press the button to bring up the dialpad, and then I need to press 1, all before the person hangs up or gets sent to voicemail.
Thanks so much
does anyone have any ideas
Try this: go to settings then call settings and then show dial pad and set it to all calls ..that might work

thanks but I already have those settings on.

Call Issues since KitKat upgrade

Before the KitKat update, there was a feature that was simple but very effective and I absolutely miss it. Let's say you were in any application and someone called you, you would receive a call pop up from the bottom of the screen with three options (to accept call, deny call, I do not recall the last one) and when you decide to accept the call the popup would disappear and now your status bar would be green (to let you know that you are in the call) and you were able to keep doing what you were doing before the call (like multitasking the call and whatever you were doing). Since upgrading to KitKat, the popup shows up as normal but when I accept the call I am forced into the call screen. I've checked throughout my settings to see if it's an option to get it back but nothing . I am wondering if anyone knows a fix to this.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If I have to multitask, I just press home and it gets out of the call screen. I have that issue with my S-view flip cover when in a call it always goes to the call instead of what I was doing before. If you just press the home key, it should get you out of the call screen. It's something I always had to do even with JellyBean.

[Q] In search of a good phone/dialer app

So I just upgraded from a Galaxy Nexus on 4.2.2 to the Nexus 6 on 5.1. The dialer for 5.1 is the worst. I have searched Google Play for a Jelly Bean Dialer, but nothing exists. Does anybody know of a dialer that's worth running?
Features I'm looking for that Jelly Bean's Dialer has:
Recent calls list displays caller's picture, name, phone number, incoming/outgoing calls, date/time of call and two "single select" options for each caller: option 1, dial the caller and option 2: view more call details
Dialing screen with large DIAL and HANGUP buttons instead of that tiny dime sized button in the 5.1 dialer.
Swipe between recent calls and dialer instead of the tiny dime sized dialer that must be selected in the 5.1 dialer.
Call history/recent calls list that scrolls forever without having to hit a button to "view full call history"
Thanks for the help.

Looking for an emergency notification app

Sorry if this is not the right place. i didn't see any section that seemed to be about searching for an app with specific features.
I want to setup an inbound Google Voice # on my phone to be used to contact me for emergency situations. But often, I have my volume turned down. But I never want to miss an emergency call, so I want a loud notification (kinda of like an emergency weather alert or amber alert) to play if a call comes in on this special number regardless of the current volume setting.
Are there any apps like that?
Thanks.
