Number of rings on Windows phone

LadyDee

My Windows phone only rings a couple of times - by the time I've got it out of my bag it's stopped ringing and goes to voicemail.

I can't find anywhere in the settings to extend the number of rings - can somebody please tell me where I can find this option?

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure this is set by your service provider, give them a call.

And if the method you find by searching with Google doesn't work, search again & try a different method. I usually find the third one works.;)

Ah - found a work round - if I turn off voicemail, the phone will keep ringing until the caller hangs up. Hopefully I can dig it out of my bag and answer it before they get fed up!

Who is your mobile provider? It's a simple matter to set the required amount of ring time.....

I changed mine with 3, it involved calling a number and entering codes.

**61*901*11*30# is what t'interweb suggests you should dial in the caller app. The bold bit is the number of seconds of ringing before voicemail and should be set in 5 second increments. 901 is the voicemail number - change if yours is different.
