Call forwarding, relevant commands edition

This is widely documented around the internet, but everything has a lot of details irrelevant to my case of two phones and its always effort to cherry-pick the relevant parts. This file may be unintentionally Finland specific.

  1. Open dialer
  2. Enter command. +358 is Finnish international format, remove leading 0 from phone numbers local format. (040… → +35840…)
  3. Call there

Commands

  • ##002# - Remove all call forwards
  • **61*+358…**30# - forward if call is not answered in 30 seconds
    • 30 may be replaced with multiples of 5 between 5 and 30.
  • **62*+358…# - forward if phone is not connected to network.
  • **67*+358…# - forward if phone is on another call.

Copy-paste template for text editor:

**61*+358…**30#
**62*+358…#
**67*+358…#

Status check

  • *#002# - Supposedly status for all forwards. Will respond with everything has failed.
  • *#61# - Status for forward while not answered. Doesnt show the amount of seconds as that would likely make life too easy?
  • *#62# - Status for forward when not connected to network.
  • *#67# - Status for when being in other calls.

GUI

  • Apple: has no proper GUI for the cases above, only on/off toggle for forwarding every call. https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/iphe9bdd027a/ios
  • Android: Dialer → Settings → Calling Accounts → SIM → Call forwarding. Has options for Always, Busy, Not answered (no word on time) and Out of network.
  • SailfishOS: Settings → Applications → Phone → Call forwarding. Case forward when not answered in X time has no option how long to wait and I am not going to try whether it forwards in 5 or 30 seconds.
