Also if you would like to change to rapid prompts in your voicemail. I was only able to get Cingular and Sprint PCS.

Cingular:

To turn of cut through paging:

Personal Options (4) – Admin Options (2) – 7 (turn off cut through paging)

-AND-

To enable rapid prompts:

Personal Options (4) – Admin Options (2) – Prompt Level (3)

Spring PCS:

To enable rapid prompts:

Personal Options (3), Greetings (3), Personal Greetings (1), Caller Instructions (3)

These tips were compiled thanks to College v2 and Lifehacker readers in this post.

However, I am still missing some commands. If anything here is wrong or you have more comment in the post.

EDIT: Thanks to hunter for the alltell tip
