Guest Lammypie Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 (edited) :evil: Since upgrading to the newly released official Orange UK update for the C500 when I press and hold '1' to call the answer phone it dials 123456, instead of 123. I can change this number in settings, but when I turn off the phone, it gets reset to 654321! Anybody have any suggestions?

Anybody have any suggestions? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have the same issue but have worked around it by doing the following: dial 123 and hang up. from the homescreen press 1, which should bring up (and highlight) 123 Selected save > New item > select > rename to Answer Phone now pressing and holding 1 dials Voice mail.

Guest Disco Stu Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 Surely the Orange answerphone number is +447973100123..... At least it was on mine before the update, and still is afterwards. :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Disco Stu Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 What about the SMS service number ? Does that change ? :shock: :evil: :shock: jporch316 is right. This thread is jinxed ! Was testing rebooting my C500 and the number cleared itself ! Have inputted correct number and restarted phone and all appears to be well again. A thought : when you go into the settings it says it is fetching the number from the network. When you press Done it says it is sending to the network. Do you think your / my network connection might be monkeying around with the setting ? Mine is okay again, so I'm off :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I change it appears to send it to the network fine. And when I go into the menu again, it appears to receive it fine from the network also, just after a reboot, it retrieves it wrong from the network!!!!

Anyone got a solution ? Does a hard reset actually fix it ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It looks like it is due to the SIM. when you select "Call options" it says it is retrieving settings from the network. I've tried everything including being sent a SIM update. The problem seems to have disappeared after inserting a different Orange SIM though. You may also have to go to call options, enter +447973100123 select done and turn your handset off to apply the settings. After doing all this, it appears to retain the correct settings. Let me know. chhers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Griff_FFOC Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Mine was wrong after updating the ROM, but as it was wrong when I bought the phone I just thought it was normal and needed changing. I changed the number to the full answer phone number and all was well. 8) However I just read this and held number 1 to check, and it dialled "654321" :shock: I'm not sure if it was a time thing, or as a result of switching it off and back on some time. I'll reset it and if it doesn't keep the setting i'll give orange a bell and see what excuse they give, :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Griff_FFOC Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 (edited) After a soft reset (off and back on) it's still got the new correct number (so far). I wonder if it's a temeramental thing, or whether it's a timed thing. edit: just checked again and it's now back to 654321, so on a restart it's ok at first, but then after a short while, it's back to 654321.

Guest jporch316 Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Just wondering When i did the rom update it placed lots of email and orange numbers in my contacts which i then deleted - it wouldnt be down to this would it Im pretty sure everyone who upgraded their rom should have the same problem - they probably just dont know it yet :) Just after the upgrade i checked the voicemail no and it was there - it seems it only happens after your first reboot. Or from reading this jinxed thread bloody annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest celica1.8st Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Just to put a positive note in - I upgraded mine and the number didn't change - I have done many soft resets and the number is still in fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think (from memory) that immediately after doing the update, it had set itself to 123456 (I didn't try it, but I knew I used to have +4479 something or other). So I changed it to the correct number, and now every time I power cycle the phone, it changes all by itself to 654321. Very strange and very annoying! Steve.

Guest Gajet Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Im pretty sure everyone who upgraded their rom should have the same problem - they probably just dont know it yet :) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No answerphone issues here after update, rebooted several times to test, and holding 1 allways dials the right number. Worth re-downloading and reflashing the ROM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
