Hello, I just got a lumia 800 today and man i am blown away by both nokia and windows phone 7.5 :victory:
Anyways, I am facing a problem: I use a prepaid sim and on my other previous phones, after each call/sms i used to get a automatic message regarding the amount used in the last call/sms and the remaining balance for my prepaid sim. But now on my lumia 800 i am not getting those messages after the call/sms. Anyone here knows the solution to this problem? I tried using the counter app by nokia but that only keeps track of the number of minutes/sms. But in the notification which I get after each call/sms, it shows the other things like free minutes/sms left and something like that which the counter app doesnt show.
I really need this after call/sms notification badly
Thanks in advance

Unfortunately Windows Phone is not compatible with that feature. Maybe they would fix this in 7.8 update..
Also reply based USSD code is also not supported on Windows eg: In Vodafone (India) dialing *111# would reply back with a menu of option (action to perform) with a dial back number assigned for the option, which in windows phone is not supported. You would be able to see the option list, but no dial-pad to respond..
And there's no market software for that either.
Thanks for the reply but today morning I noticed after I ended a call, tht message which I am talking about was showing....I was happy so I tried it again by calling someone and ended the call, but then it didnt show up Then I tried calling a couple of times but it didnt work. I dont know how it showed that message just that once....strange
So I think the feature but it only shows once in blue moon.

yeah... but somehow I don't miss that feature anymore......
but yet would like to see it on 7.8
After a couple of weeks of testing I found out that after ending a call or sending a sms, once in a blue moon the remaining balance and the particular amount deducted from your prepaid account message comes up.
Its really coming up randomly, still trying to figure out what actually triggers the message to pop up after a call or sms

right,
my wifes starting to lose her temper with her hero.
she send over 150 text messages a day, but receiving them seems to be a very hit and miss affair.
she gets texts ok for a while, then gets nothing for 10-20 mins (from what i can tell) then all the ones she has missed arrive all at once.
orange UK have basically told her to naff off and talk to HTC.
so, can anyone tell me whats causing the problems, is it an orange problem, or a phone problem.
if its the phone, whats causing the problem
doing a bit of a search, one explanation seems to be that the phone is running out of memory and it shuts down the text app and relaunches it later on, if so, how can i prevent/stop this happening.
she is on the current rom from HTC which she installed about 10 days ago to try and prevent this.
thanks in advance for any advice / help you can give
from what i have read on the forum it might be a problem with the stock messaging app.
try installing handcent sms or chomp sms from the market and see how that goes.
don't forget to turn off the notifications from the stock sms app or you will get multiple notifications for the same message.
also if your wife is using task killer applications she should put the messaging app on the ignore list!
Me too!
I am having this very same problem, although on a slightly smaller scale (150 texts/day?!). I also get the problem where callers are going straight to my voicemail when the phone is right beside me, receiving full signal, which, to my mind, would seem to be related.
I spoke to Orange who fobbed me off with "oh, there's a mast down in your area, switch to use 2G only", despite my protestations that the problem occurred when I was in different parts of the country...
Interestingly, it happened with my Touch Diamond as well when I first got that, about 18 months ago; I was never sure that it was completely cured, but it sure as hell wasn't as bad as it is now on my 2 month old Hero with stock Orange ROM.
My twopenneth, for what it's worth.
P.
Try a new updated Radio rom maybe? One way to tell if its a network issue is to make calls to 150 for about 10 seconds and see if the stuck messages come through, if so its a network issue. I wouldn't let orange customer service fob you off they don't have the reporting tools to actually look into the issue's.
AAAARRRGGG THAT FAKE VOICEMAIL IS KILLING ME anyone know how to fix it? nothing like buying a new phone and the thing already broken
More info, please

Try this, worked for me on another phone with this problem ...
Call yourself from another phone, and leave a message, then call your VM and delete it, it should update the indicator ....
Also , do you have visual voice mail installed, if you do try opening it up , if not the above suggestion is the only one I got ...
Hope it helps ...
I also have the same. Quite often when someone tries to call me, the phone never rings, even though they hear the "ringing" in thir phone. After they have hung up i get a msg on my phone saying that there is a new VM, calling the VM and no new msg.
I have just learned to live with it, every time i get the msg i call them up again.
No big deal, its just a bit anoying.

Guys, this is really annoying me so any chance of a little help please...
Today I received a notification of new 'Voicemail'.
I didn't know the number (hate it when this happens as there is a charge every time you listen to the message).
As it happens the message wasn't for me but I was still charged to listen to it.
Anyway, if that is not enough what is annoying is the voicemail notification simply will not go away from the top bar.
Every time I reboot the phone it first starts to play out loud the voicemail notification and the only way to terminate it is to pull down the notification bar.
Thing is what's further annoying is no matter what I do I can not remove the voicemail icon and notification from the top bar.
When I click to listen to the voicemail it simply tells me I don't have any outstanding voicemail so I then hang up but the notification will not go away.
I have been to the T-Mobile web site obviously there is nothing there and on the phone I have dialled 150 Option 4, 1, 1 which is meant to stop voicemail (I think).
Help please..... It is driving me crazy.
I also want to know
It drives me crazy
I am with fido and I have a voicemail notification and it does not want to go away
I erased the phone 2-3 times, I left a message in my voicemail and then I deleted
no matter what I do the notification is there.
I tried the same with my nexus one and atrix but I dont have any notification.
It seems to be the phone itself
Just a long shot, but have you got a txt message that relates to having a voice mail, if so try deleting?

Well, in a weird sort of way I am pleased I am not the only one who is having this issue (apologies prince_72). It shows the problem is not isolated to either my phone or some form of settings.
In answer to morg01 ~ no... as a protection to my profession once I have received and actioned any text messages they are deleted. So it can not be a previous message that is the cause.
If the blessed thing has not disappeared come Monday I will speak with T-Mobile to ask if they have an answer.
However, I think they will most probably point me either to here or here but all these do is terminate voicemail, not handle notification.
I'm hoping it is something as simple as their system that is reactivating the notification despite the fact the last one I received I deleted.
We'll see.
I had this issue along with the com.android.phone crashing issue and they just switched my phone out in the shop. It might be time for a replacement?

Time for a replacement! That's a bit harsh.
In all other manner the phone works absolutely perfectly.
I have the issue too, I don't have carrier vm set up (i use g voice) but I forgot to set up voice after doing a wipe and got a vm. It asks me for a password that doesn't exist and wont let me delete the notification.
I dont think a replacement is a solution.
This is a software problem and I think the problem has to do with the software
implementation of the voicemail implementation.
If I put my Fido sim card to my Nexus one or Motorola Atrix I dont get the voicemail notification.
Also just to reply to morg01 I do get text messages along with the voicemail notification at the status bard but I delete the text messages I receive.
The problem is how to remove the voicemail notification.
I have a feeling that the Baseband implementation is wrong.
I got the phone from Europe and I dont think it supports the special features from Fido.
Just to mention that I dont have Name Display as well.
I would have to wait for the Canadian version to appear and to flash the modem
but until I wait that I will be really happy to remove that stupid ugly notification
I've been using Google Voice for the last 6 months. It's not always perfect, but you can read a transcript of your mail. And it's free and reversable.

Finally I fixed the notification problem
My carrier (FIDO) has two voicemail systems. One is for Iphone with the visual voicemail and the second is the reset of phones.
I used to have the second. It seems Galaxy S II does not really work ok with the more standard. The CSR switched me over to the visual voicemail and now everything works ok.

Nice one.... That proves it's a carrier issue.
I'm hoping to get to the bottom of my problem tomorrow.
I noticed that USSD codes (i.e codes checking for balance etc, eg: *111#) are not well supported on our Lumia. Sometimes it really takes ages to process and display the response, and many times it would just hang on 'waiting..' screen and finally i have to dismiss it and try again.
Again the response oriented USSD codes dosent suport at all. As in my Vodafone prepaid, on dialing on *111# I get a response screen with selection of 5 option eg: 1. Check Balance, 2. Data Plans, 3. etc. if it sometimes displays me the option menu, there is no space given to input my selected option (like if I need to know my Data Plan I need to press 2 and send ok), and thus cant do anything.
any workaround for this.
nothing till now... facing the same problem... Service Providers should also provide an sms based query method like old days along with this..
Last month i jumped my data limit and lost a balance of approx 250 INR..
Even balance and remaining sms balance is not shown after call/sms
No Windows Phone handset handles USSD Codes, I guess it's just not implemented in the OS. If you're developer unlocked you could compile and try USSD Runner (http://ussdrunner.codeplex.com/). I haven't tested it, so I've got no idea if/how it works.
IV dev unlocked...will try...bdw..i need help with my lumia 800...psl do reply...

I check my balance all the time on my HTC Trophy. *#100# for meteor in Ireland.
I know, you get the reply but can't proceed further than that.
A have the same problem. I find the partial solution with Nokia Lumia 710 OS ver 7.10.8107.79 firmware 1600.3013.8107.11502
If you call *123*1# you will receive the massage that correspondent to the 1st option in menu.
I am on O2 UK prepay and I have no problems using the O2 USSD's other then I have to press on CALL to send the USSD

Hi All
From what I understand, the Xperia Tablet Z 4G isn't meant to be able to make and/or receive GSM calls. I came from a Samsung P6800 that was able to make and receive GSM calls so I have a SIM that is attached to a voice and data plan. I'm now using that same SIM in the XZT.
Earlier this afternoon, I turned on my tablet and saw what looked like a missed call screen that flashed by and disappeared. There was no notification of a missed call. I remember the screen had light colours - like light green and blue and yellow (if my memory serves me right).
Tonight I actually received a GSM call. I didnt get to answer it in time (well, let's say that when I got to the tablet, I stood there looking at it and wondering what was going on and the call stopped!).The screen that came up is what I described above. It had an icon of a phone with a circle around it in the middle of the screen. I'm guessing that to answer the call, I would've had to have put my finger on the icon and drag it out to a side.
I tried calling my tablet again with my normal phone to replicate it and maybe try get a screenshot, but I can't seem to get through on the number.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there software on the phone that can make and receive phone calls?
Edit: I should add that I'm on 4.2.2... and Build number is 10.3.1.A.0.244.
I had hoped I could use it as a huge phone, but nope.
I was told the hardware wasn't there.
But if you truly have had an incoming call, then there might be hope.
Right now I'm using Skype and the tablet redirect calls to my Skype-number.
There is..
I use viber a lot and everytime i recieve a call there is a phone with a circle and a wave on it and i just drag the phone to the right to answer it.

Yeh, I thought that it could be Skype or Viber or one of them chat apps, but I wasn't signed into any of those at the time. I'd only had the tab for a couple of days and was still in the process of installing apps.
It hasn't happened since then.. but i'll keep a lookout for it and see if it happens again.
How about Google Voice? If you have it set up on your account you might be getting a call to that number. Try calling it.
