    The code to change the number of rings depends on your phone's carrier, not the type of phone. So, your best bet is to contact your service provider to get the appropriate code.

    It's carrier dependent, as far as I can tell. For Verizon, I had to call customer support and get the second level of technical support. The default ring time is 25 seconds. They can decrease it in 5 second increments.
