Set up your voice mail

Your voice mail account, password, and greeting are created within your wireless service provider's voice mail system. Depending on your wireless service provider, the method for changing your voice mail password or greeting might differ. After purchasing your smartphone, consult your wireless service provider's instructions for setting up your voice mail password, greeting, and other voice mail options. If you need additional information about voice mail management, contact your wireless service provider.

Set up automatic dialing for voice mail access

You can set up your smartphone to access your voice mail automatically, by storing the voice mail password. With the voice mail password stored you don't have to enter it manually each time you retrieve your voice mail messages. To access your voice mail messages you need the voice mail access number and a password. The voice mail access number is the phone number you call to access your voice mail account, and is usually loaded onto the smartphone by your wireless service provider.

Tip: With some voice mail systems you need to add a longer pause before entering the password. To determine if this is required, call your voice mail account and take note of the amount of time that passes before being prompted to enter the password.

the key.
