I am using Munjeni CM9 ICS rom. Since yesterday, I can't access my voicemail from my phone. I press and hold "1", then the rom gives me the message "voicemail number unavailable". I am using AT&T. Is it a bug?
You have to enter your voicemail access number. Go to Settings -> Call Settings -> Voicemail number and enter your own mobile phone number.
Some time after I did this, the number changed to the usual number for my area. I'm assuming AT&T has the power to change whatever number you program here.
thank you

Thank you. It worked.
ICS4.0 is not perfect, I suggest you re for a ROM

How can i set up voicemail on Htc hero ..? Guys please help me .. Thanks in advance..
Do you mean add your voicemail number to the phone? main menu, settings, call, voicemail service, select my carrier, then goto voicemail settings and change the vm number.
to get the number you need to add enter and press the send button

How ever if you are talking about provisioning a mail box number on the mailbox server then speak to your cell provider.

Thanks Bro, it helps a lot ..
I'm using a rooted Bell S2 (with Galaxy_S Unlock) on Telus.
I can't access my voicemail as no number is being read off the SIM.
The error is: "No voicemail is stored on SIM"
If I choose ADD NUMBER you can't add anything.
Anyone else run into this problem and if so, how did you fix it.
Much thanks!
Same problem here. I have just stored the Voicemail number in my contacts.
Go to Menu, Settings, Call, Voicemail, Voice mail number. You can edit the number there.
Amazingly simple Thanks
You're welcome

No I can't. That's the problem. Any suggestions?
yup same problem, it will not allow me to edit it.... but i have a number there.
anyone know how to edit the number ??
Well the voicemail number is stored on the SIM card, so stick your sim in a different phone and edit it there.
ok, will try that, hmmmm.... need to find a nother cell that takes a sim (i am on Bell and all my old phones had no sim!
i was hoing there was an easy way of doing it on the SGS2
When I long press the #1 key on the dialpad, it dials the AT&T system voicemail number. I am using Google Voice for my voicemail services, and I would like to be able to call in to GV using the #1 key, to access my account, but can't seem to find any way to change the phone number assignment for that key. Is it possible to change it, and if so, how? Thanks.
Don't know if its this easy on yours but on my I9100 you go in to 'settings', then 'call', then at the bottom 'voicemail'.
That's how I change my voicemail number anyway

Thanks for the reply. When I go there, I have two options: Voicemail number (which has my Google Voice number), and Sign out. When I press on Voicemail number, I get an error message "Error-forwarding number change failed." Can't do anything else.
BTW, my phone is an I727 Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, but I thought I would ask anyway. Thanks.
First off you should have started with stating a phone model that is essentially operator phone (only rogers and att) so who knows what's locked or not. Second make sure your operator supports gsm standard codes and has call forwarding option. Don't have att so iono? Third, your phone has its own subforum so best ask there. Good luck!
Sent from my GT-I9100
under settings -> call ->voicemail -> settings for my carrier
there is a voicemail number that isn't mines.. i bought this phone used so it's probably the previous owners number. how do i change this setting? when i click on it it just flashes and makes a sound but nothing happens, no text field pops up
Help please ...
I am trying to set my voicemail for the speed dial "1" key.
while at the keypad screen:-
menu-> call setting -> scroll to the heading "voicemail", option "voicemal service", is set default to "my carrier".
I then choose to change the "voicemail settings" -> "voicemail number", and enter the new voicemail number to dial, press ok .... and this is where the problem is...
When I press OK ... I get the following error "Voicemail number change unsuccessful"
I would like to to have this number changed , as every time manually dial my voicemail number it constantly ask for my password.
Why is this happening, I have purchased this phone outright, it is model type i9300, running Android 4.1.2.
Hopefully this can be an easy fix...?
PS...
This also causes a problem with Australian virtual mobile carriers, like Amaysim, Kogan, Aldi, who use Telstra & Optus as there underlying carriers, and and also will cause issues when travelling abroad, because you will not be able to access your voicemail if the number can not be changed to the full international dialing equivalent..
I am having trouble changing the voicemail number on my Galaxy S2. At present pressing the voicemail speeddail does nothing other then prompting me to add my voicemail number and directs me to the settings app.
If I try to change it in Settings > Call settings, I get the error message 'Voice Mail Number change unsuccesful'. But no real reason why it happens and its annoying me greatly as I can't clear my voicemail counter without it and what not >_<
Tried power cycling and what not and neither of it has helped, so has anyone of you gotten any idea as to how I can add it to my phone or fix that stupid error. Any help or advice short of doing a full reset is more then welcome, and I do hope someone might be able to help me....
Thanks in advance.
There is a copy of your voice mailbox number on the sim card that may conflict with what you are trying to do.
Talk to your provider, they can flush your mailbox and allow you to reset the number.
How can they flush my sim card, or am I reading your comment wrong?.
Just for clarifying I changed provider on my phone and I am unsure wether the error happened during that change since I can't remember fiddling with the voicemail bit before the last couple of days and running into that error.
they can flush the settings for your voicemail on their server which will allow you to make changes to your voice mail account.
Well they tried something which advertantly didn't work >_<. But apparently the voicemail number isn't even on my simcard.
They tried even more stuff >_<.
And when I press and hold #1 on my phone it says there isnt a voicemail number on my sim. But trying to change it through settings it still says "Voicemail Number changed unsuccesful"
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
At the moment I have limited the issue to being operator dependant. Because I have the issue on one sim from my regular provider, while trying two other providers simcards doesnt cause this error.
Next on list is to try another simcard and then go digging in the phone to see what might be causing it. But I will be pinging you if I find the solution.
dnesdlrow, where are you from and what provider do you use?.
I've got the same problem. I flashed to a custom & now there is no voicemail number on my SIM card.
I called customer service and the gave me a 10 digit number to plug in. They said the number is different for everyone so if anyone else has the same trouble you can simply call your carrier.
You need to put in your carriers specific voice mail number. For example I am on O2 UK and mine is 901.
Use google of contact your carrier for the number.

Hello,
I had a similar issue. I changed the plan on my phone, and afterward the voicemail didn't work when I did a long press on the #1 button. It kept saying that there was no voicemail number, and when I tried to enter it into the settings manually it kept saying "Voicemail number change unsuccessful."
I called Rogers and they gave me a new voicemail number; I could dial it and set up my voicemail, but when I tried to program it into the dedicated #1 speed dial spot, I still could not change it. I tried copying it to my SIM card and adding it as a contact to select for the speed dial slot, but that didn't work either. I suspected that this new number was conflicting with the SIM card, so I went to Rogers and asked for a new one. Despite some resistance, they gave it a shot, and it worked perfectly thereafter. Just be sure to copy your contacts over to your phone before getting a new SIM!
I hope this solution works for others too!
Cheers and good luck!

Also Can't Change the Voicemail number
I'm running a non-rooted, GS3 from VZW. Running 4.1.2.
The current voicemail number is *86 (Verizon's). I'd like to change it because I'm abroad and *86 is not my carrier's voicemail number. Every time I go to Phone, Call Settings, Voicemail Settings, and edit the number to the local one, I get "Error: Voicemail number change unsuccesful."
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Same problem still
I'm on an S4 Mini with cm11 m6 and habe the same problem with a German T-Mobile card. I can easily dial the number 3311. Why can't I simply assign that to the #1 key?
