voicemail notifications???

[GSRswapandslow]

so my x2 has never shown that i have a new voicemail. Not in the top bar on the screen, nothing on the main display, and even when i hit the voicemail button it says 0 new voicemails...even if i have 8! I hate to have to randomly call it several times a day to check!

anyone had this issue or know of a solution??

ok try this. Call into your voicemail. check your message waiting indicator. This is how you do it:

call *86
enter PIN
go to "personal options"
the first said option should say "to turn message waiting indicator on or off press 1"
After hitting 1, it should say "message waiting indicator <ON or OFF>"

If it says message waiting indicator "OFF" turn it on and your problem is now fixed!! If it is "ON" leave it on and then hang up. If it is ON and you dont get voicemail alerts....well sorry, something else is going on. Try playing powerball, maybe you'll have better luck

I hope this helped/fixed it!!

Also, If I post one more time after this, I hit 100 posts.

I am now at 100 posts. Thank you for making this thread because without this thread.....It might not have been possible or I may have had to wait 5 more minutes to reply to something else. Also, let me know if your issue is fixed

hard reset maybe if the waiting indicator is on. If the waiting indicator is on like illustrated in my instructions, then its phone related most likely.

If the system is already ON, turn it off, hang up, reboot the phone , and then turn it back on and reboot the phone again.

I have tried all of these, and yet i still have no voicemail notifciation...thinking i have to break down and go to a verizon store...which i dread...
if anyone else can think of something else, please let me know.
