Realme: Turn On/Off Call Forwarding for Calls

If calls land straight in voicemail even though your phone shows full signal, or every incoming call suddenly rings on a different number, call forwarding is likely active in your carrier call settings. Realme groups four forwarding modes together: Always forward, When busy, When unanswered and When unreachable, and each one behaves differently depending on network conditions. On dual-SIM phones, these settings apply separately per SIM, so a rule enabled on one line won't affect the other.

Turn On/Off Call Forwarding auf Realme

Call forwarding on Realme phones is managed through the carrier call settings, not through a general phone toggle. That's why it's easy to overlook: a rule can stay active after a trip abroad, a SIM swap, or a setting change made by someone else using the phone.

Realme UI groups four forwarding conditions under one menu: Always forward sends every call away regardless of state, while When busy, When unanswered and When unreachable only trigger under specific network or usage situations. If your phone rings once and then goes silent, or calls skip straight to another number, one of these is usually switched on.

To check or change it, go to PhoneMenuSettingsCalling accountsCarrier call settingsCall forwarding. On a dual-SIM device, pick the SIM card first, since each line has its own independent set of rules. From there you can turn each option on or off individually.

Keep in mind this setting is stored on the carrier network, not on the phone itself. If forwarding stays active after you disable it here, contact your carrier, since some regions restrict changes via device menus and require a network-side reset.

Frequently asked questions

Call forwarding rules are stored on the carrier network. If Call forwarding shows as off in Carrier call settings but calls still redirect, ask your carrier to clear the rule from their side.
