Not knowing your phone make & model I can offer advice from my own previous handsets, please Go into your settings menu, select phone setting & then answer setting, choose the longest amount of ring cycles offered, if this is not an option, try selecting a longer ring tone, or downloading a song as a ring tone, which will then play the length of the song making it ring longer... I hope this helps....
Extending your ringing tone
You can change the length of your ringing tone by typing the below code into your phone.
**61*(mailbox number)**(number of seconds you want it to ring for)# send
You can choose between 5 and 30 seconds. The standard ringing time is 15 seconds.
If you don't know your mailbox number it's just your normal mobile number with '5' added after the prefix. For example, 087 5 1234567.
Contact your carrier's customer service. Ask them to set the maximum time before shunting the call to voicemail. They deal in time rether than number of rings. On my AT&T iPhone, the default was 20 seconds and they increased it to their maximum of 30 seconds.
Unclear if you're using the TMobile ring tones or some that you have downloaded (or created). BION, I got longer ring times by using longer ring tone recordings. (I got mine from free sites on the net, most tones created by people from their music collections.) If you are using ring tones that aren't from T-Mobile, switch to a TM ring tone and see if that makes a difference. (If it does, then shop around for some new ring tones - the old ones were causing a problem.)
Another possibility is to check settings/phone/auto answer. Be sure this is set to "never." Also check Call Barring. Try having your blocking of incoming calls "off."
And last: put profile on "vibrate" and call yourself. Do you get more than one second of vibration? If you don't, then it's probably a phone malfunction, but if you do, it's a ring tone problem. Fairly easy to deal with. Good luck!
Your cell phone carrier controls that. To you it only goes off twice you should find that the caller hears 4-5 rings before going to voice mail. Either way call "611" and talk to the tech department to see if they can help. Call from a different phone.
I don't know your country code or vmail quickdial number but try this using those numbers where I say.
Oh firstly if your fone is a prepaid you may need to ring your provider and ask them to extend the ring time.if not this might work
Pls let me know if it does.
** (country code) * (vmail number)**30# and press call this should extend the ring tone to 30 secs.
remember country code & vmail number have to be actual numbers dont try to type in the words and brackets
