Incoming calls go straight to VM when cell phone turned off
GPz1100:
Alright genius, explain why the obi is not ringing for the OP when his cell phone is off?
SteveInWA:
Because the OP did not enable Conditional Call Forwarding.

If Steve is right (which can easily be confirmed by any Sprint/GV users), the way the above question was phrased, shows both ignorance and arrogance.

Indeed, there's plenty of arrogance on this forum. More so than any other forum i've been on and mainly from a select few.
Perhaps the way steve describes is the way it *should* work, but that doesn't mean it works that way for everyone, self included.
My provider is att. With the att number added and checked active as a forwarding number to the gv account and the gv number configured as the conditional forwarding number (on said att account), calls to the gv number went straight to gv voice mail when the cell phone was off or in airplane mode. The obi did not ring. If I reverted CCF to the att default then calls to the gv number went to the att voicemail when the cell phone was off with the obi still not ringing.
The only way to get the obi to ring was to either disable CCF entirely or put in a different GV number.
Perhaps it works as intended for most people but it didn't work for me. If I personally didn't experience issues similar to the OP, I would not have even bothered to post in this thread.
Who's ignorant now?
LTN1:
I really don't care if someone is using AT&T, Verizon or Screw You service. What I understand is that this post is about Sprint and GV. Coming in here with AT&T problems for a SPRINT issue isn't directly answering the OP with a Sprint and GV problem. Since the OP hasn't returned, I'm not sure where he is at.
All I know is that until the evidence points elsewhere, SteveInWA has answered the OP's SPRINT and GV issue. All other answers contradicting Steve is not on point.
