iLuvAndroid – Feeding your Android Addiction with news, reviews and guides

Annoyed with the HTC G1 mobile because incoming calls go to voicemail before you can answer the phone? Its a common issue where many calls are missed because the default timeout is 15 seconds which is too short for many people. This is a guide to easily change the time before your mobile diverts the call to voicemail from anything from 5 to 30 seconds.

Just follow these steps:

1. Enter *#61*11# and press Send/Talk on your phone.
2. Write down the number your calls are currently forwarded to. This is your voicemail deposit number.
3. Decide how long you want the phone to ring in 5 second intervals. The maximum time is 30 seconds. I have mine set at 25 seconds.
4. Now enter **61*[number from step 2]*11*[number from step 3, use 2 digits]# and press Send/Talk.

Example: **61*441234567890*11*25#     Then press Send/Talk

This will now change your default ring time before voicemail answers to 25 seconds. To test if it was successful, enter *#61*11# and press Send/Talk for the new value. Hope this helps!

Just added a new guide on how to Root your G1 mobile phone! I will add more screenshots in the future to make it even easier for people to follow but I hope this guide will work for you as it did for me. More guides will be on their way along with how to use ADB, Nandroid, the Recovery Image, HardSPL/DangerSPL, scripts and much more!

If there are any other guides that you wish to see featured or written, then feel free to drop a comment and I will have a look at it in the future. For now though feel free to browse the Guides page to see what there is to come!
