I have a DroidX on the Verizon network.
So, I got a voice mail from a caller not in my contacts.
When I look at listing my calls, the original call is not listed. It is not listed under missed calls, recieved calls, or all calls.
When I am in voice mail, I am not aware of any facility that allows me to return dial a call.
Are you telling me that Verizon and Motorola are forcing me to use memory/pen & paper to return this phone call?
I had a dumb cell phone before this that did not make me do this.....what am I missing as I cannot believe this is the case.

It's also possible for a phone call to not make the trip to the phone, mostly when you are in a weak signal area, but I've seen it happen a time or two in good signal. I blame that on the network, not the phone.
When that happens, the phone has no record of the phone call, so you can't see the information you are missing. It didn't make it to the phone in the first place.
As for no information to call back the person that left the message, I'd inform them of the courtesy of leaving a detailed message with a name and a phone number.
Yeah, yeah, Visual Voice Mail costs $3.00 a month, but that's a good deal for getting the information when a phone call doesn't make it through. It's also a good deal, considering the other crap available that people spend 4 and 5 dollars a month for.
I've tried the other visual voicemail apps, and the native app that comes on the phone is the only one that works reliably.

There is an option of "to return a call press" I don't recall the number you press, but it is stated once you the message has completed. I've used it a couple of times myself.
Congratulations, gerio, for making the BOTB. Keep up the good work.

Didn't come up as an option when I went through them....and I went through them twice listening real hard.
As I mentioned above, that may be an option that exists for other numbers on the Verizon VoiceMail network. This call was not from a Verizon number.

Good morning tom. I'm sure Voicemail works the same on every Verizon phone and once in Voicemail you have options after reviewing a message. Press 7 to delete. 9 to save and so on. Which option to dial back I can't recall but the option should be there after the message.
)Indeed congrats, also for doubling my kudo's for the last 7 days.
The settings of the voicemail does not give you the option to return a call to the caller, it allows you to:
