Can't We Have AM for S260 - HTC Excalibur

Dear All,
I am looking for the answering machine for Excalibur, is that possible to have it.
Respect for All

What do you mean "Answering Machine"..
When you don't pick up a call, the DASH will forward it to a certain phone number which acts as the Answer Machine...for T-Mobile for instance, it goes to a T-Mobile Number specific to your phone that is your answering 'machine'.
If you want to know how to change the number here is how :
Go to SETTINGS
Click on PHONE
Click on CALL FORWARDING
Under Call Forwarding there are multiple different instances...Click on each and it should let you change the phone number there...
Hope this helps

Thank You
Sir, I will not help me because I am from India hence using the local service providers.
Thnx..

Sorry, I did not really get your question initially then.
Is it that you want the message from the Excalibur's Answering Machine (ie. to use on other phones)? Or do you want to know what the number is?
Regardless of what country or area you are in, as long as you are on a network, there should be a "call forward" number for most (if not all) of those instances I mentioned above.
If you are asking if you could get a copy of the answering machine, you can surly get an audio copy by using a program to record the call (Search the forums, the name escapes me), however you can't get the (if you have it) "press ... to do this" and so on, as that is specific to the programming on the answering machine.
I hope this helps.
If once again, I don't seem to have understood your question correctly, could you please clarify a bit?

problems with diverts to voicemail & # of rings b4 diver

my mob no is: 07743889117
my voicemail no is: 01234567891 (suppose)
i ve tried searching around on the forum and found 1 thread where this topic was discussed, however it was quite confusing.
my o2 XDA IIs used to divert calls to my voicemail only after 15 seconds, however i wanted to change this to 30 seconds and then came across a thread on the forum here.
i used a long command starting with: **61*077453889117....
(i ve forgotten the last few sequences of the command)
so neways, it did the trick, the timer was delayed to 30seconds, however here is the PROBLEM: when sum1 calls, it rings for 30seconds, and then it says: "ur call z being trasferred....ur call being transferred, THE NUMBER YOU HAVE CALLED IS NOT RECOGNISED"
any1 knows how 2 fix my problem n get the diverts to my voicemail up n running again?
if you are going to write the commands, can u plz use my above given numbers so that i know exactly what to do.
many thx
any1 at all?
Hi SenzAsian
I have had mixed success with using the codes. Don't have it to hand right now, but will try and find tonight. But a better plan is to just call tech support. They can just change it on the server side for you. I think 40 seconds is the max... Have you tried that?
Regards
Chris
If you do a search on Google for "gsm codes" then several pages are returned. Try one or more of these for advice if the command I give below is no good.
If you have an O2 XDA IIs I am assuming you are on the O2 UK network. The number after the **61* bit should be the number of the O2 voicemail service. Therefore, the command for a 30sec delay to divert to voicemail after not answering your phone is:
**61*+447802091901*30#
Then press the GREEN send button.
Hope this helps.
hey guys, thank u very much for ur input!
mvsmith, thx man, it worked! however, ur command was missing a * towards the end, so let me write down the proper command in case other users need to set their delay times:
Steps:
1. find ur voicemail number (not ur mob number)!
2. so suppose ur voicemail no is: +447743888888, then
3. on the xda fone scree, type in: **61*447743888888**30#
(the **30# at the end will set it to a 30seconds delay b4 it goes to ur voicemail)
4. click send/talk
5. wait for a few seconds
6. DONE!

forward calls to a telnumber, evening to voicemaill when I'm not able to answer. How?

Hi,
I'm looking for a program (cab) for my Touch HD that does do the following:
- during office-hours (08.30 tot 17.30) I want my calls being forwarded to my office, so my secretary can answer the phone there instead of calls being forwarded to my voicemail.
- during the weekend and evenings (non office-hours) I want calls being forwarded to my voicemail (when I don't answer the call of course).
Does such a program exist? If not, is someone eager to produce it?
Thanks!
Axum
I am sure that exist but don't know the name. Try some auto profile search on google.
Why do you want a phone anyway ?

Vanstra,
I want this program to work when I am not able to answer calls, just like you probably use your voicemail as well
Of course, when I am able to answer my phone, I will.....
I'm sure even on older phones (Sony Ericsson three or four years ago) there was a simple way to do this. Not automated, but witha click of a button you could change the call divert settings, so goo luck on the hunt.
You might prefer a more manual approach anyway, so that you can flick the switch as you walk out the office door, rather than find you are working half an hour late and need to cancel the auto-change etc. Might get annoying unless you're on a perfectly regimented 9 to 5.
Let me get this right firstly. During office hours if you cannot answer your phone instead of going to VM you want these calls to go to your secretary and, out of hours you want them to go back to VM?
This is what i get right?
Ok the problem is with phone forwarding you wont be able to get a cab to do this as phone cannot handle this. The only way to this ATM i believe is to change the numbers manually. sorry
nobody has a solution ?
I searched google but I didn't find anything yet, but was hoping (or expecting) that the great people of XDA would know the answer....
Axum
Maybe change the topic of your post to something more informative, then someone browsing through the forum titles may spot it (not everyone's going to click into the thread to find out which special program you're after
You may want to try "AutoFlight v6.0".
Just google for it, 'cause I'm a little in hurry.
Maybe skSchema or Mortscript?
Success,
Rob

Block Unknown Calls?

Does somebody know a free app that gives me the possibility to block all Unknown Calls?
Yes, I did search, found some links, like here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307178&page=49&highlight=call+block
But following those links, some apps are paid, others still ring once, etc.
So, just wondering if somebody knows of another app that does what I need?

Thnx,

Phone ring once and cut off.
I am also looking for an app that block unwanted calls and the caller won't even hear any ringing.
What you need is impossible
It's because ringing tone is generated by GSM provider when starting from the moment that cellphone is reached in the network.
Then PDA software must do something with it. It can get it or drop it.
But... try your self, and check how many seconds is the delay between reaching destination and PDA's reaction.

Answering Machine

Do someboby have an Answering Machine for android???
your provider doesn't provide voice-mail for you?? How do you expect some Ansering machine to work if your device is off or in flightmode??

Providers charge for that service and many people want it done on their phone. I am looking for that kind of app too.
Assuming your phone will accept the call, I guess you can use "Tasker" to do just about anything, eg, answer the call, initiate media file (your message), hang-up.

Good to know that tasker can do this but it will only play a media file of my voice record I am looking for a dedicated app which works as answering machine & then let the "unknown" caller record a message which is stored on my phone.
Basically I get to many spam calls which if I block using the white list, it also blocks genuine calls from those who may want to contact me but are not in my contact list, answering machine will allow to leave them a 1 min message so I can get back to those people.
Anybody knows if such apps exist?
Have you tried Google voice? It has a voicemail service and I think you can apply it to any number

Help with recen call list

Under phone menu there is a call log but I can't figure out how to show the most recent calls first. It seems that the phone somehow prioritizes some calls at the top and you have to scroll down (in my case several pages) to find the calls that start with "today" and then go backwards in time.
Any way to change the sort so the call log is almost most recent first? How to do this seems to have escaped me? Thanks and apologize in advance if it's something blindingly obvious that I missed.
I have the 851 variant and my call log is sorted with the most recent first. I checked the menu and settings and do not see anything setting to alter or rearrange the call log order at all, outside of clearing the whole list.
So I'm not sure if it's a variant specific issue or setting.
Sorry I couldn't help any further, but I wanted to post so you wouldn't feel left in the wind and would know that perhaps it might be specific to your phone.

I would like to know about this too, it's very annoying
Stumbled upon the answer. I was looking through the pages and pages of "new" calls when I realized that these were all call log records that came over from my iPhone. I used the LG PC suite to transfer my texts, calls, etc. to the new phone and it seems that all the call records go in as "new" as sit above today or any recent calls. As I didn't want to lose my recent calls, I went through the call log call by call and deleted every call categorized as "new" and now it's working perfectly - call logs are properly displayed by date in descending order of most recent first.
I discovered this will on hold with LG support via "chat". They were more than useless. The rep said she didn't even have an G3 at her location to try and understand the problem and gave me the usual 'factory reset' to fix it. I told here there was zero percent chance I'd do a factory reset and have to spend hours to get my phone back to my setup without any assurance it would even work (which it wouldn't have if I'd done the PC Suite transfer again) and told her she should, in no way, categorize my call as "solved or finished" based on suggesting a factory reset. My expectation for tech support was near zero and LG didn't disappoint. The support was worthless. Thank goodness for XDA.
