Calls going straight to voicemail on your Android phone
Your phone has call forwarding turned on, Do Not Disturb enabled, or Airplane mode active. All three will send calls straight to voicemail. Check these three things in order — one of them is your problem and it's a quick fix.
When calls go straight to voicemail, your phone is blocking them before they can ring. This happens when call forwarding is active, Do Not Disturb is on, or Airplane mode is enabled. The fix is straightforward — we'll check each setting and turn off what's blocking your calls.
Fix-IT-Bot will walk you through each step — just tap, no typing needed.
Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Checking for Airplane mode at the wrong place in Settings — it's in Quick Settings at the top
- Turning off Do Not Disturb but leaving a scheduled Do Not Disturb active — check both places
- Not realizing that call forwarding can be silently enabled by your carrier
Signs you need professional help
- All three settings are off and calls still go to voicemail immediately
- This started after switching carriers or getting a new SIM card
- Calls ring on your phone but then cut to voicemail before you can answer
