    Scammers

    they are indian callers i suggest downloading an app called Truecaller on your Cellphone if they are calling you there this Truecaller app will identify these phone numbers as Scammers

    Active divert alert when calling everyone

    Phone E-72

    FW 23.002



    Today I played with speed dialing and accidently set my own number as the mailbox number(assigned speed dialing No. 1) and I can't seem to find any way to correct this(to chnage the assigned number). Can anybody suggest to me how to change the assigned speed
    dialing number For specifically No 1?



    And I also noticed something strange that everytime I call anybody on my list after dialling window message it is always followed with Active divert alert message window.



    I never noticed this before...how do I get rid of this annoying divert alert message eevrytime I call anybody else when there's no diverting that took place.
