How to change your mobile carrier voicemail to Google Voice on Nokia N97 and Nokia 5800

by Mobile Jorge on August 11, 2009

If you already have a Google Voice account and you would like to use it as your primary voicemail instead of the one provided by your carrier, here is quick and easy way to forward all your calls to Google Voice.

Instruction for AT&T and T-Mobile USA:

  1. Dial *004*1[GVnumber]*11# (Replace “GVnumber” with your Google Voice number, example: *004*14087771234*11#)
  2. Press “Send” or green button
  3. Your N97 should display “Requesting” then “Forwarding Activated” (see pictures below)
  4. You’re done.

All calls will now be forwarded to your GV number. To verify simply call your own number from a different phone or you can go to Menu>Settings>Calling>Call forwarding>Voice calls. Press “If busy”>options>Check status>Number. “To number” should be your GV number. This should also be the same for “If not answered” and “If out of reach”.

To change back to your carrier voicemail press: ##004# and send.

(This instruction should apply to most if not all S60 devices.)
