How to extend ringing time before voicemail is activated?

I would like to setup the phone such that voicemail is not activated for 10 or 15 seconds, but I can't figure out how to do it. This was pretty easy to do on some previous phones I used.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thank you for your time.

I contacted SingTel (Singapore Telecom) and they gave me a code that I had to "call" from the phone. Seems to work OK.
The bottom line is that you can't do it onboard the phone. As you guys said, you have to find out from the wireless provider.
Thanks.

If you are on Orange or Vodafone then follow the codes, if you're on another network then phone up the network provider for the relevant code as mentioned above.

Please bear in mind that the following code is only valid for phones on the Orange UK network.
The code to set the length of time your phone rings is:
**61*07973100123*11*??#
Where ?? is the time in seconds, e.g. to set the ring time to 30 seconds you would type the following code at the standby screen then press the green send button:
**61*07973100123*11*30#
To make your phone ring for only 10 seconds:
**61*07973100123*11*10#
The code works in 5 second intervals, i.e. you can set 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 & 30 seconds.
If you're on a network other than Orange then I'm afraid I can't help but you should be able to get some answers from your network provider.

Extend the time before voicemail picks up

How can I set the number of rings on my phone before voicemail picks up? The default of 20 seconds is too short. I would like to extend the time to 30 seconds. How can I do this?

It's set by the system at roughly 30 seconds; sometimes using a different ringtone helps.

How to extend ringer time

I'm pretty sure the iPhone, like all phones, is set at a default ring time of 20 seconds. Is there any way on my own that I can manually extend the ring time to the maximum 30 seconds or do I have to call Apple customer service. If so what is the number I can call?

Here is what i know about the ringer time.
First type *#61#{SEND}. Your iPhone will show where your voicemail calls are being to sent to. Write down the number as for you will need later. Second type {STAR} {STAR} 61 {STAR}{the number you just wrote down}**30#{SEND}. When you get the confirmation dismiss it. Finally, check that your calls are still being forwarded to the correct number. Type *#61#{SEND} and verify its the same number as before.
There you have it, your now 30 second ringer.
Where you see {STAR} it means *, i couldnt get it to show it correctly.

Extend/reduce time to voicemail pickup

I thing I notice that os 10 haven't been able to do, that is, control the number of incoming phone rings prior to out going greetings. My old blackberry 9630, I had control over that.

This (time to voicemail) is not a BlackBerry feature but is controlled by your mobile provider.
And not a feature request (I'll ask a moderator to move this post).
As a norm, most all carriers have a default 15 seconds of ringtime until the voicemail picks up. That can be extended to 30 seconds.
If you do need additional ring time before voicemail, The simplest method is to call your carrier and request a longer ring time, up to 30 seconds.
There is another method:
Dial *#61# from your phone. ...
You should see a new screen that displays a bunch of information about what's getting forwarded. ...
Now, dial **61*+11234567890*11*XX# and hit Send, where 11234567890 is the number that you found in step two and XX is the number of seconds you want to wait until voicemail picks up.

How do I extend ring time on calls?

How do I extend ring time on calls?

Are you asking about how long before it goes to voicemail? If that is the question, then you need to contact your carrier. They are the ones that control that. It is not done at the phone level, that is carrier level settings. It is not based on rings, it is based on time. They may be able to extend it for you.

How do you change ring time before giong to viocemail?

How do you change ring time before phone goes to voicemail?

You can configure many call-handling features on the iPhone, but not the number of times an incoming call rings before it goes to voicemail. Only your carrier can change that variable. Wireless service providers uniformly grant incoming calls four rings within roughly 20 seconds before sending them to voicemail. If you find that ring length too short or too long, contact your carrier to adjust it.
