Hi,
Can anybody tell what that is?
If I go to Call Forwarding options, they are all disabled.
How can I disable Unconditional Call Forwarding? What is that anyway?
Some networks won't let you disable it. Mine (Vodafone AU) doesn't.
Unconditional call forwarding means no calls are received on your phone & all calls are redirected to the number you choose (your work number, voicemail, whatever). Whereas conditional call forwarding only happens when say your phone is out of service area or you're on another call or your phone is switched off, for example.

Hi
I've only had the xda for a week and I have a question:
I know how to forward all calls to voicemail but its a long procedure (phone-setting-call forwarding etc.).
Is there an easier way to do this, i.e. can you set up something like a macro on the desktop that you click and it will automatically do this and also one other for undiverting the phone.
Thanks

**21*PhoneNumber# Register and activate divert all calls to PhoneNumber
*21# Activate divert all calls
#21# Deactivate divert all calls
##21# Unregister divert all calls
*#21# Check status of divert all calls
Simly set yourself some speed dials in the phone app.
I've read some posts here about this but I seem to be the only one who cannot make any calls on account of it.
Whenever I try to make a phone call (no matter which phone number) I get a "conditional call forwarding active" and cannot finalize the call (I cannot use the 3G either). When I try to disable call forwarding I get an error msg saying it's not supported by the operator.
There HAS to be a way to fix this. I cannot make any calls or use 3G.
Try calling your service provider, there maybe a problem with your account.
Aren't there some codes to force disabling active call forwarding? Something like this http://ronyelindinha.tk/library/index.php?id=21&start=0 ?

It turns out it WAS a problem with my service provider. Now I can make calls and use my 3G service...but I still get the very annoying "conditional call forwarding active" message along with a beep before each call.
At the moment I cannot receive a second phone call while i'm already talking to someone. Call waiting is enabled and I think that the problem is on Call forwarding settings. I went to Call -> Call forwarding -> Voice call -> And Fowarding when busy is enabled, and I cannot disable it. Apparently it gets this info from my carrier. Can someone let me know if this is a carrier configuration, or I am doing something wrong?

Am I missing something? the auto call forwarding seems to be missing from the verizon version. The manual call forwarding seems to be working well, but would love to have auto call forwarding. I tried the tasker method and it didnt work either as the phone (note 4) has a popup confirmation for call forwarding before making the call when using tasker.
I don't have it on mine either. I've got a Sprint Note 4 paired with an AT&T Gear S. My gf has an AT&T Note 4 paired with an AT&T Gear S and she has the auto forward feature. Only difference between us is the carrier of the phone.
For me, on Verizon, the auto forward used a *90 or *92 code I believe... Doesn't matter, whatever it is, didn't work. It's a regional thing. If the code doesn't work for you, you'll have to do it manually... No biggie.
Here's what I did. First, click disable forwarding. Some genius decided to enable 3gwhenever forwarding us active. Next, From your phone dial *72 1234567890. Replace with your 10 digit phone number. If successful, it will beep then hang up. If you don't care about voicemail skip ahead a step, at this point.
Then, unless you want to check your voice mail from your watch, forward your watch to Google voice, or my favorite, youmail. First, disable Bluetooth on your phone, then make sure mobile data us on, and set to use your watch number is set in call settings. Then, dial the same *72 code with your Google voice or youmail number.
Once forwarding is set, you probably don't want your friends to wait twice as long for voicemail to kick in, or listen to your ringer twice as long when ignoring calls (30s on phone, 30s on watch) . Now, set mobile data to auto switch, test that 3g goes off and on opposite Bluetooth connection.
I personally like this way better than the factory way. When I don't answer phone, it goes directly to voicemail. When my phone is dead, it automatically forwards to my watch without remembering to enable forwarding. When the watch doesn't answer, it gets forwarded to the same combined voicemail box
*92 does not auto forward calls
Update 12/14/14:
I finally spoke to someone at Verizon that understood the *92 issue not working.
They entered a ticket to the tech team.
He contacted me and I described the problem in great detail.
A day later the issue with using the auto-call forwarding has been fixed!
He said he was going to check other regional switches to verify that the *92 option was valid.
The issue has been corrected and the auto forward from the watch works perfectly now.
----------------------------------
Same issue here....
When trying to forward all calls from my cell phone to the Gear S, it dials *92 as the prefix to my number.
Called Verizon and they said it is a Samsung problem....talked to Samsung and they say it is a Verizon issue.
Neither of them are willing to report this as an issue...time to return it! Ugh!
Also the watch keyboard dis missing some special characters like the dollar sign $??
This "smart watch" appears to be in beta form.
TL
My call forwarding on my AT&T Phone and AT&T Gear S won't connect. Anyone know of any threads or remedies?
Fixed My Own Problem
Ok I fixed my own problem and now it works better than before. I got on the chat with AT&T and they set up the call forwarding on their end. The Gear S still says there is no call forwarding connection though, so I disabled the option. Since it is enabled through AT&T, however, on a remote connection I can receive calls from both my phone number and my Gear S number. All the while call forwarding is disabled on the Gear S. I can receive texts through both numbers as well. The only downside is, to disable the call forwarding I would have to contact AT&T again. But I don't really know why I would ever want to disable that. I'm just going to leave my phone in a constant remote connection and get all the benefits of a regular bluetooth connection plus the ability to receive calls and texts on my Gear S number.
Customization
Ok wait. To customize my watch, such as adding new clocks and wallpapers, I would have to be on bluetooth. But that's no biggie i'll just reconnect.
Nevermind
This method does not work. Calls to my original number do not show up on my phone. Just my watch. I missed a call today because I had my watch turned off. Even though my phone was turned on, I didn't see the call. It went straight to my watch which wasn't on. AT&T said there is no way I could get the same call to appear on both my watch and my phone. So I'm still out of luck on getting the call forwarding option thru the Gear S working.
