Suzi -

The answer is pretty simple, and that is the phone (your equipment) doesn't determine this. The amount of time given for the phone to “ring” before forwarding to your service provider's voicemail system is determined by you provider. You can change the number of “rings” by choosing a shorter ringtone, but the time it takes remains the same.

If you have your service provider disable the voicemail feature, this may add a few extra seconds on before the caller receives a default message that you can not me reached at this time. You could also try forwarding your calls to yourself (the same number), thus doubling the amount of ring time before your voicemail picks up – service providers differ on this ability though.

Good luck!

The problem with all Kyrocera phones is they go to meassage after 2 vibration and 2 rings. Why the company can't let the phone owner choose the number of rings I will never know!!

This is the worst mistake I made, spending 250 dollars on this phone. I was anxiously waiting for UPS man to deliver my phone and when I got it I was very disappointed. For 250 dollar they could at least made a better phone. The feature is ok but the quality of the phone is ****. The cover of the battery is so flimsy that you can squeeze in and out while it is on the phone and if you drop it, it'll probably smash to pieces. I did not even bother to activate the phone, so I brought it back to Wal-Mart and got my money back. I recommend that no one even bother spending their hard earn money on this phone... just my 2 pennies

25. Slider Sonic

I just purchased and am now returning the Slider Sonic (The Kyocera KX5) after finding Virgin has disabled the transfer of photographs from the phone to a computer over the provided USB cable. This was, I believe, a thoughtless business decision to wrest a few more pennies for phone-only photo transfer at a cost of a $250 sale. After a two hour conversation with Kyocera support it became clear that Virgin took away (locked out) the existing file transfer from internal memory to the transflash card. When I e-mailed Virgin about this decision, they replied with the misleading statement:

It wasn't so much a business decision that made the phone unable to transfer pictures to the computer but a hardware limitation. Anything stored in the Transflash card, such as videos and MP3s, is transferable to the computer via the USB cable. Pictures taken by the camera do not get stored in that memory, but in the phone's internal memory, along
with ringtones, contacts, games and wallpapers. The internal memory of the phone is inaccessible via the USB cable because of the way it's set up. I apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you.

It's inaccessible because of the way it's set up because of the way Virgin Mobile set it up. Nice logic, Matthew. Support at Kyocera can transfer photos, ringtones and files from internal to transflash memory but Virgin Mobile customers can't. So, I can't recommend the Virgin Mobile Slider Sonic.
