Ringing duration before call forwarding

I have a skype number with a paid subscription. I use a skype phone on my home network to receive business calls on. In the previous skype UI I set the ringing duration to 25 seconds before the call would forward to my mobile number. It works really well for me when I'm out and about. However I want to change the ringing duration before diversion to 15 seconds. On the new Skype UI this option has disappeared (or at least I can't find it anywhere!?) Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, k1092, and welcome to the Community,
Remember, the setting is not for the number of rings before the incoming fall is forwarded, but the amount of time. In the Windows version of the Skype software, Tools -> Options -> Calls -> Call Forwarding -> Call Forwarding Options. Remember to Save any changes you make to your settings.
You may first need to check the timing on how long the number of times the incoming call chime sounds (rings).
Best regards,
Elaine

8330 Call Forwarding...How do I set the number of rings before calls are forwarded?

8330 Call Forwarding...How do I set the number of rings before calls are forwarded? Right now it instantly forwards my calls but I don't want that. I want to change it so that let's say that if after 5 rings I don't answer the call is forwarded. I've looked everywhere for an answer but have had no luck. Any help would be appreciated. I am with Virgin Mobile if this makes a difference.
Thank you

Well, call forwarding is a feature provided by your carrier -- it is not a function of the device. However it works for your carrier is how it works. Actually, from what I understand about call forwarding, it normally is an all-or-nothing circumstance...calls forward to the number you've asked them to be forwarded to, keeping you in a DND status. Regardless, though, if your carrier tells you how it works on their system, there's nothing that the device can do to override that. Unless there is some kind of 3rd party app that would do it, bypassing (somehow) the carrier network CF feature...but I've never heard of such a thing.

How do I extend incoming call duration before voicemail activates ?

How do I extend incoming call duration before voicemail activates ?

I had this problem and for 12 months no one could tell me how to fix it.
Finally a young kid told me. Get onto your carrier web site, in this case Telstra in Australia,
and you will search for ringing or similar and there should be instructions how to do it. It worked!!!
good luck

Call Forwarding: Change timeout before forwarding ...

Hi,
I've just set up call forwarding with a Skype number and I'm wondering if there is any way to change the number of times it rings before being diverted to my mobile? People are having to wait too long for me to answer and most people are hanging up before I can answer the call...

Hi, Salsy20 and Joeriba, and welcome to the Community,
Please check your call forwarding settings; Skype does not determine when to activate call forwarding based upon the number of rings; it is based upon an increment of time. For example, in the screen shot, below, the default increment is 10 seconds (circled in orange pen). You would need to determine and then experiment with how many rings = [x] seconds, or set to 0. Remember, if you make any changes to any settings, click Save!

Lync 2010/2013 simultaneous ring\call forwarding not working

Hello ,
I have Lync server 2010 and 2013 environment .I'm facing some issues with simultaneous ring\call forwarding when the call initiator is from outside of my organization.
For lync server 2013 ,i tick the option "Enable forward call history ".
For Lync server 2010 , i enabled the ReferredBySupported.
but when i checked the log, "history-info " still missing
Lync servers are updated with latest CU. the Gateway is SBC 2000 with sip trunk.
please advise

Please check if the correct voice policy and pstn usages are assigned to users. you can test if everything is in order using voice test case.
On client collect the tracing logs and see which voice policy user is getting what message the user get when call forwarding / simultanous ring is being tried

CUPC 8.6 call forward to voicemail

Hi!
I am using Cisco Personal Communicator (CUPC) 8.6 and also CUCM 8.6. I have CUPC in Deskphone mode, connected to a 6945 IP Phone. I also have Unity Connection where my voicemail box is hosted. When I want to setup call forward to voicemail button in cupc option, it is not working. CUPC will not handle the options I setup seconds before. If I manually put in a call forward to extension number of voice mail pilot call forwarding is working. also call forwarding to my mobile is working.
I checked End User settings, IP Phone is associated to my user, also CTI controll is enabled on device and line settings. user privileges are correct. I tried it on jabber client where it works fine. I also restarted CTI and Callmanager Services on the Servers.
Does anyone has an Idea if this is a general bug in CUPC or does anyone can tell me what the problem might be?
Thanks!
René

Hi,
If at least one of these phones is set to CF to VM then it will, if not, then no.
If none of your phones is set to CF to VM CUCM will not send them to VM, that is expected, if you need to ring, phone A, and if it is not answered to go to phone B, C... and so on, and send the caller to VM after you have reached all of these then use a hunt group, (the pilot can be set to CF to VM if nobody answers), if you need to ring all phones at the same time so someone can pick this up, use a hunt group with a broadcast logic.
If this is for a single user, check 'single number reach' (SNR) or mobility on CUCM.
Bottom line, there is no way to send a caller to VM if none of the phones is set to CF to VM.
HTH
Chris.

CUCM 8.6 - Call Forward All Doesn't Work With DN In Hunt Group

Hello,
I'm trying to make a hunt group that's sole purpose is to dial out to our Help Desk member's cell phone (on-call after hours). The idea is that we want the hunt group to broadcast the call to the on-call engineers. Whoever picks up first takes the call.
At least that's the idea now. They may want to change that to - ring primary on-call cell phone, if no answer ring secondary on-call engineer.
The target cell phones will change every week and I wanted to give the supervisor a means of changing the numbers through the ccmuser page.
I created two DNs and placed them in a hunt group, each with call forward all to a cell phone number.
It seems that the hunt group ignores the call forward all setting and that is by design (https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/9126/cisco-callmanager-call-forward-all-cfa-does-not-work-if-line-hunt-group).
Does anyone else have any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

That's correct, what you're seeing is WAD, this topic has been discussed plenty of times before, the only option you have is SNR

Call forwarding when I didn't request it?

If you call our home phone, it rings once, then goes to busy. If you call back immediately thereafter, you get a fax machine tone (!). One the home end, if you pick it up i after the first ring, you might get the caller, but otherwise you get a dial tone.
This has been going on for several days now. The lines have been tested from the sentral office several times now and we don't think that's an issue.
I called Verizon last week; they did something Friday morning (remotely; I don't know what, we weren't home as they did whatever it was they said they did before the time that they had said they would come) and it was fixed then, but Saturday it went back again.
It looks and sounds for all the world as if our home phone number has been forwarded to a fax machine.
We don't have call forwarding service, and I have tried the *73 several times just to be safe, but to no effect.
Before I call again and end up missing another day of work to wait for a repair that won't come when promised -- any ideas?
Thanks much

Home Connect not ringing on incoming calls

I have a Home Connect that was working well until January. Now callers often don't get through. The get a number of rings and the a "Caller Unavailable" message. I don't have Verizon Voicemail. I have voice equipment of my own. Once this starts, it seems to last.   If, however, I make on outbound call (outbound calls always work), following incoming calls works for awhile. We have tried *228 many times, cancel call forwarded, etc.   All the things anyone can think of. I am an IT engineer so I think I understand troubleshooting technology.
I have had a number of trouble tickets on this. VZW says the "calls are getting through" but my unit isn't ringing.   We have replaced the phone and then this week replaced the Home Connect box. No joy. I have tried every troubleshooting idea I can think of.   Service says they haven't seen this before but I think this is the same problem many people have reported with voicemail being left even though there was no ring. I just don't have voicemail enabled. Incoming calls are not completing correctly.
There is some basic problem here with the unit not properly getting the call or not ringing the phone.   The is VERY frustrating and I have missed important calls.   Again, outbound always works and I have 2 bars on the display.   Also, this just seemed to start in January.
How do I get to the bottom of this and this this fixed?
Frustrated,
Scott

There have been at least 3 trouble tickets on the number. The most recent one should be the most complete.   I just return from vacation and my first call to the home number failed this morning. This is REALLY FRUSTRATING. Please help.
Thanks,
Scott >Personal info deleted<

Broadworks Call Forward Sync on SPA50X

We enabled the broadworks feature sync and have noticed strange behavior. The feature syncs up DND, CF All and CF No Answer. The problem seems to be that the cisco phone CFNA timer on the phone is in seconds and the Broadsoft timer is in number of rings.
A user will enable CFNA on their phone and set it to 20 seconds, they then turn off CFNA and the broadworks sees it as 20 rings, so the caller hangs up before it hits their voicemail.
Has anyone else seen this and is there a workaround?
Thanks,

I can confirm Crowda's findings.
Broadsoft expects CFNA values to be in rings. The phone expects the value in seconds.
I thought at first I could get around this by telling my users to enter the number of rings instead of seconds as the CFWDNoAnsDelay, however if it is set up this way and a call comes into the phone, the phone stops ringing after x seconds but the far end continues to ring until x number of rings defined in Broadsoft elapses.
For example the user sets their CFWDNoAnsDelay to '2', and a call comes in, the phone only rings for two seconds. The far end however still hears ringing until after 2 rings.
If the phone would just sync the CFWDNoAnsDelay value to Broadsoft and then actually allow Broadsoft to handle the forwarding then this would just be a documentation/training issue. Unfortunately the phone also acts on this delay.
The only workaround I can see would be to disable the CFWD No Ans Service on the phone and force the user to set it through Broadworks (or third party tool integrated to Broadworks).
This is what I plan to do in fact as of right now.

Call Forward icon keeps appearing, here's the solution

Do you keep getting the Call Forward icon appearing everytime you switch your iPhone on? This is the icon:  If you do then following the below should solve it. Firstly dial 1760 to switch off your voicemail. Now dial 1750 to switch voicmail back on and use the below divert codes to setup your voicemail to take messages in the following instances (depending on your preference). Not reachable (For example when the phone is switched off or out of signal/service)
To activate= **62*901#
To cancel= ##62#
To check status= *#62#  Busy (For example when your engaged on another call, or you reject an incoming call)
To activate= **67*901#
To cancel= ##67#
To check status= *#67#  No Reply
To activate= **61*901*11* number of seconds #
The *11* only needs to be entered if you wish to set the length of time the phone rings before diverting to voicemail. The standard ring time is 30 seconds but you can have anything from 5 seconds to 30 seconds (in increments of 5) by using the *11* method.  To cancel##61# To check status
*#61#  After doing the above, you can then do the below to stop the Call Forwarding phone icon appearing when the iPhone is switched on. 1: On your iPhone, go into Settings/Phone.    2: Next touch Call Forwarding.  3: Next, switch Call Forwarding on. 4: You will now see "Forward to". Touch this and enter 901 (this is O2's voicemail number).    4a: Once you have done this, touch the left pointing CALL FORWARDING at the top left of the screen. 5: Now switch off Call Forwarding.   You should now not see the Call Forward icon appearing. I can confirm that I had the Call Forwarding icon appearing everytime I switched my iPhone on, and I managed to get rid of it by doing what I have mentioned above.  Leonard or Toby. Could you sticky this post so that its going to be easy for people with the same issue to spot this post more easily. Thanks

Automatic call forwarding (time based) to mobile number in CUCM 9.1.1

Hi
I need to configure time based automatic call forwarding to mobile number. Can we do this from CUCM 9.1.1 ?
Example : Ex 2000 need to forward to 01111188888 in every friday after 9.00pm
Regds
$

There is one way you can still achieve it by using the Mobile connect (SNR).
In the Remote Destination you have the option to ring your mobile based on your requirement.
Please see the attached screenshot for the same.
So user need to enable the Mobile connect on friday all calls will go to the Mobile phone # (Remote destination).
Also delay before ringing should be 0 ms.
Please refer to the Mobile connect configuration guide for the same.
Kind Regards,
Raaj.

Problems with call forwarding setup

I just got an iPhone and it's great, except for one annoying problem with the call forwarding behavior.
With my old RAZR phone (also on AT&T) I had two choices when turning on forwarding, "forward immediately" or "forward when unavailable". I used the second choice and had forwarding turned on all the time. Calls would go to the cell phone first but then forward to my home number if I was on another call or didn't answer after a couple of rings. That behavior is important because I want all voice messages in the same place, on my answering machine at home, regardless of whether my cell or home number was called (so I want to deliberately bypass AT&T's voicemail system).
However the iPhone seems to only have the "immediately" behavior, which means I don't have a chance to answer a call on the iPhone before it forwards, and the iPhone doesn't even log it as a missed call. The forwarding setup is stored in AT&T's system so it seems like the capability should be there regardless of the type of phone, and this is just an arbitrary user-interface restriction with the iPhone. Anyone know how to work around this and get the "forward when unavailable" behavior?

Jason -
Thanks, this did the trick. The instructions under the section for "former AT&T Wireless customers" worked perfectly (perhaps because I am actually a former AT&T Wireless customer; I've had the number for almost 6 years, since before the merger with Cingular). Anyway, I dial 61xxxxxxxxxx# (xxx = the number to forward to), make the call, and a confirmation message appears on the screen; now the forwarding is working just the way I like it.
Thanks again!
Bob
