Call Settings
- From the Home screen, touch the Menu button and touch Settings.

- Touch Enable FDN to enable Fixed Dialing Numbers. You are prompted to enter a PIN2; this should be a four- to eight-digit number.
- Touch Change PIN2 if you want to change the code.
- After FDN is enabled, touch FDN List to select numbers from your SIM card.
- If your SIM card is empty, touch the Menu button and touch Add Contact to add contacts to the FDN list. Then touch the Back button to return to the Call Settings screen.
- Touch Voicemail Service to choose from the service provided by your wireless carrier or Google Voice. See more about Google Voice in the next section.

- Touch Sign Out to sign out of Google Voice.

- Type in a new number and touch Update to change the phone number that calls are forwarded to for this option.
- Touch Additional Settings to change how your Caller ID is displayed and how Call Waiting is handled. You must be in cellular coverage to change these settings because they are actually stored at your carrier and not on your Nexus One.

- Touch Call Waiting to enable or disable the notification of an incoming call while you are on another call.
