Autoflight and forward

[Guest deim]

Hi guys,

I've tried Autoflight - extremely usefull program!

Just one question. Every evening when I'm back home - I'm forwarding my cell to home phone number, and every morning - turning forward Off.

I was wondering - is it possible to use Autoflight to do that? There is an option to run a program on schedule, but forward on/off is done by calling special number/code, not by any program run. Autoflight does not call numbers. So, may be there is a small program which could call a number from parameters, so it will be possible to run this program from Autoflight?

Thanks!

hi deim,

I am the author of AutoFlight software. I am glad that you enjoy it.

The software has not this function by now. But i am going to add this function into next version, maybe v4.1.0 beta2. I just have released v4.1.0 beta1. But I am not sure if the special number/code is same among all devices. And i am not familiar with the method how to operate/input the special number. Can you give me an example, such as what is number/code to forward on/off and where to input.

Thanks

Hi!

Not sure is it the same everywhere or specific per carrier. I'm with Rogers, which was part of AT&T some time ago.

To turn Forward On:

*21*nnn#

(nnn - any phone number)

Forward Off:

#21#

Well, I did some googling, looks like this codes are different everywhere. For example, Verizon has *72nnnn to turn On forward, and *720 to turn it Off.

Could you implement this numbers configurable?

Btw, there are 3 different forwards: 1) Immediate Forward On/Off, 2) No-answer forward on/off, 3) Busy call forward on/off.

Personally - I use only simple forward (first one).

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply.

I think that i may leave a edit box in task schedule screen for user to input string by themselves and forwarded by program at scheduled time. I will try it recently. I just will have a 7 days holiday next week ;)

Just a point to note auto call forwarding on vodafone, I used it and all went ok but when autoflight turns off call forwarding by I assume using the code #21#, this also turns off diverts to voicemail. This may only be the case on the vodafone network but its worth checking out yourselves as I found out the hard way, by people telling me that they couldn't leave a voicemail message!
