Voice mail on iPhone 4 vs 3GS

My old iPhone used to show the messages graphically in the VM tab and I could listen and delete them there.  I never had to dial into my carrier (ATT) and punch the buttons.  on my 4 I have to call is there a setting I'm missing somewhere to get the old way back?

Found it.  it's VISUAL Voice mail and had to call ATT to set it up. /sigh  This is fixed.

  • Like voice mail for iPhone, when are we going to be able to leave Face Time messages when a called party doesn't answer. Seems logical...

    I used to be a Telecom technical person for healthcare and legals markets, managing 10s of thousands of voice mail apps and users requests. 
    I wonder where the "suggestion box" is at Apple?

    I can't set up voice mail box on my iphone 5s .
    And I can't merge calls .

    Both of those functions are carrier dependent so you may want to contact your cellular carrier.

    Call your phone carrier - that's a problem for them to resolve.

  • IPhone 5S, boomerang voice mail

    How does one completely delete a voice mail message?  I delete a message and in a few minutes it comes back as unheard and it is driving me CRAZY.  I have had all of the iPhones as they can come out adn never had this problem before.  Any suggestions sure would help, before I go for a Blackberry instead...

    So this did not work.  Any other ideas on how to keep deleted voicemails from reappearing days later??
    Thank you.

  • Iphone 4s visual voice mail doesn't work

    I set up new iphone 4s and visual voice doesn't work
    I wiped it out and restored..still no working
    tried set up as new phone and still not working
    companion Iphone 4s works fine

    Voice mail, including visual voice mail, is a carrier feature. Contact your carrier again and escalate the call until you get hold of someone with a clue.
    This is assuming you're using a Straight Talk CDMA iPhone. If you're using an unlocked iPhone with a Straight Talk GSM SIM card, that's not supported by either StraightTalk or Apple.

  • IPhone 4s - Voice mail Button - Settings required

    Hi Apple and all
    I have an iPhone 4s in London UK. it is unlocked so I didnt want to go with expensive contracts like O2. So I am using a cheap contract from company called TalkMobile.
    Talkmobile provide better signal and cheaper line of sim only contracts. This has worked well for me as I am now paying £8 a month for my 300 min contract and 500MB data in comparison to £21 O2 contracts.
    Talkmobile dont have Visual Mail service but have voice mail service that they charge for it. So I switch it off. (dialed 1210) that mean no one calles my voice mail. I suspriped to an app voice mail service called HulloMail. and that works great for me because I use it to personalise my voice mail and allot more security on it.
    My question is.
    How can I change the voice mail button to point to Hullomail app instead.
    or
    How can I disable the voice mail button all together.
    or
    How do I switch off the voice mail button with a password or something.
    Reason why I want it changed is because even though I disabled people calling to my voice mail via the network provider. The iPhone will still call my voice mail if I press the voicmail button and I will be charged £0.10p for everytime I press it, to be honest at the moment its nusence to me, because MY FAT Finngers press it everytime I press the call app and accidantely (with my FAT Fingers) press it.
    Surely this was a bad design by apple in the first place where by users cant disable, change, restrict or modifiy the voice mail button. If this cant be done then need to be fixed by Apple.

  • Iphone 5 update to IOS 7, now visual voice mail does not work

    I updated my Iphone 5 today to ios 7 and when it was done I noticed that when I went into the phone app and tapped on the voice mail icon it immediately dialed into voice mail.  Visual voice mail was not there.  I looked into some forums and turned on/off airplane mode, turned the phone off and on and reset network settings but it did not work.  How can I get Visual Voice Mail working for ios 7

        Hey there Bobehm,
    I absolutely love the new iOS 7 update. It brings a whole new dimension to Apple devices. Let's make sure your visual voicemail continues to run on the new software.
    Are you able to access other data applications successfully such as Safari? Are you having a similar issue where if you hit the visual voicemail icon it just auto dials your voicemail? Have you tried leaving yourself a voicemail as suggested by zona?
    Please provide additional details so that I can better assist.
