XT Voicemail Fix on V3 or Micro SIM
Those of you that have got your iPhone 4 today and have decided to take it across to Telecom maybe wondering why your voicemail button isn’t working even though you have a V3 SIM or a MicroSIM.
Hit the read more to see what you need to do (it’s easy by the way)
So for those that don’t know this, if you have an iPhone 4 or you’re running an iPhone on iOS4 and are using it on XT your voicemail button likely doesn’t work. There is an easy fix for this, but it does require you to have a V3 SIM or a Micro SIM.
When iOS 4 first came out and XT only had V2 SIMs you had to dial the number or save it as a favourite. Well now on their V3 and Micro SIMs you can get the voicemail button working.
Voicemail Fix
You need to go back to the old trick of dialling *5005*86*083210# then hitting send. The screen will very briefly flash and you are done. This has now stored the number on the SIM card and next time you go to use the voicemail button it will now work.
Full Steps:
Click on your iPhone’s phone button
Then click on the Keypad tab
You need to then add the following code: *5005*86*083210#
After entering the code you tap call
This results in the code being set
Thats all, tap now on the voicemail button and it should automatically call your usual voicemail service.
Hope this clears it up for all those that have emailed us about it.
For anyone else that is having the same problem I have been into my local Telecom store and they updated my sim to a version 3 free of charge including putting all my numbers etc onto it!! My voicemail button works good as gold now!
