Dialed ##002# and now my phone does not forward calls not picked up anymore

[victorwestmann]

What should I do? I was just watching a simple and "harmless" youtube and followed the instructions!

Indeed it worked! Now when calls that I receive are not picked up from me they don't go to the voicemail box anymore. Do you guys know how to fix this? I am using an ancient Samsung A5.

Thank you!

My old phone died. Rest in peace fellow! (June 2017 to December 2021).  4 years, 6. Or 54 months.

I now need to search for a new one! At least I learned my lesson to don't follow random people on youtube because I might f--- -- my phone! Like I did. hehehe

I found that to be a nightmare these days. Only use the codes to forward (*21*xxxxxxx#) or cancel #21#.

Oh, as far as YT is concerned, I think it's like porn. It's good for entertainment.

You can't learn anything meaningful from YT largely because it's all about theatrics, likes, and revenue.

Hello @victorwestmann,

You erased the forwarding settings you will need to set it up again.
