Can I stop the text messages that are sent to my Android device when I get a new message? The message looks like this: PFVM And why are they all in a single thread instead of individual messages? A. Unfortunately, there is a design limitation in the Android OS and there is nothing we can do to stop these text messages in their current format, as this is a Google restriction within the OS. A minor rework on processing text messages was recently done. The application still requires a text message to be sent for each voic message received but now the text message is automatically deleted. Note: your notification bar will show a text message was received but when you go to retrieve it; the text message will not be available. We cannot automatically clear out your notification bar. Q. If my mailbox fills up, will you start deleting messages or do I need to do it myself? A. We do not automatically clean up messages for you. You must manage your messages yourself. If your mailbox is full; the new messages received will NOT be saved. The application will show a message received but when you try to retrieve it; the message will show up as Unable to download. No message on server. If you reach your limit (50mb for free customers), you need to manually delete your messages to make room for new ones. You can log online at or use your message management menu options to delete your messages. Q. You ask for access to my phone book and sound settings. Does that mean you have access to my user data and store it somewhere? A. We ask for access to your phone book and sound settings to get our application to work properly. We do not store any user data from the phone book, nor do we store the voic s once deleted by the user. This means that we can NEVER recover a voic if someone accidentally deletes one. Q. Will I be charged for using Fusion Voic Plus? A. PhoneFusion will not issue a charge for using our application; however, depending on your carrier and calling plan, charges for conditional call forwarding and text messages may occur. Page 12 of 13

13 Q. I set my password on the device and each time I open FVM+; it asks me to enter it. I don t remember it. What do I do? A. We will not have access to this password because it is stored on your device. If you don t remember your password for FVM+ application you will need to delete the /data folder on the SD card. Q. Can I change the amount of rings before Voic picks up? A. Yes, you can use the following code to change the amount of rings it takes for a call to go to voic . To set it to 6 rings enter the following code **61* **30# and then press the green call button 5 rings enter **61* **25# and then press the green call button 4 rings enter **61* **20# and then press the green call button Once this code is entered; you will see the following text: MMI code started, then you will get a response that call forwarding registration was successful.
