Sorry to ask another question. I just bought an unlock key and set up my phone. Both in/out calls work fine.
Now a question about VM indicator: there doesn't seem to have indicator on my phone to tell whether or not I have new VM. Any help? Thanks.

Re: VM indicator
You will/should get the broken dial tone when the MWI is active. I will warn you now that the system they use is not the most responsive. It can take quite a while to both set and unset the MWI when a voicemail is received.
What I do, and recommend to others, is to change the settings in your online admin to forward any voicemails to an email address. This happens almost instantly and as most of us are attached 24/7 to a device of some sort that receives emails is probably the most reliable if voicemails are important. It will also stop the MWI from blinking away for what can be several hours after you have cleared the voicemail down.
