Thank you for taking the time to read this and hopefully help me out.

Every time I dial a phone number and hit send, a quick "call forwarding active" popup shows on the screen and I can't stand it.

Can someone explain to me why this pops up and how I can disable it?

The iPhone is the first generation iPhone and it is unlocked and jail-broken. I use it in Thailand on the Thai network with a Thai SIM card. Hope that helps.

Thank you.

Well it sounds like you have call forwarding set up. Its carrier specific on how to change it so I can't really help you. It has something to do with pushing a bunch of random numbers and then #. I'm guessing your carrier doesn't support the iphone since you are unlocked, right?

I've had the same issue since the first iPhone and still have it on my 3GS, 3G and both 2G iPhones. I use factory unlocked iPhones (always have through the 3 iterations) am on T-Mobile in the UK. If I use an O2 SIM (O2 being the official carrier), I don't get the problem.

I do not have call forwarding set-up.

I don't believe this is fixable without a carrier update file from your provider and if they're not an iPhone supplier it's unlikely you'll get one.

It's a minor PITA.
