| I have an LG5300. When I get a voice mail message and I open up the
phone.....it says...."Listen Now" and hit OK. Nothing
happens and I'm told it's a software issue with the phone. Verizon
and LG both pass the buck to each other. 3 friends have the same
phone and they all don't work on this feature. What should I do?

Does this phone have a voice mail setup menu in which the number (*86) for
voice mail is supposed to be stored? Maybe it needs to be programmed in.

Create a phonebook entry with your own number in it. Be sure to include
the area code in case you're traveling/roaming away from home.
At the end of your number, add two pauses (pp on Motorola phones but not
sure about the LGs). After the two pauses, enter your security code to
access voicemail by phone. Make the name of this phonebook entry
"Voicemail" or "!Voicemail". The latter will put it at the top of the
alphabetical sorted list displayed so you don't have to page for it. If
that phone has voice dialing, click voicedial button and say "Voicemail".
After it dials, rings, answers, ignore the voice prompt for your password
as it will autodial after those two pauses for the voiceprompt,
automatically. If it starts dialing too soon, add another pause to the
number in the phonebook.
There, now you can call your voicemail from anyplace whenever you want by
saying "Voicemail" into it, if you have voice dialing on the phone.
Works much better than those non-functional voicemail internal codes that
suck and sometimes don't work. Dailing your number always works...(c;
