Hi I have a Samsung Galaxy Fame on Talkmobile network. How do I increase the ringing
time before the phone goes to voicemail?
 
You may be able to change it by going into call settings, call forwarding, forward when unanswered, and see whether there is an option to change the delay. If not, you should speak to your carrier.
 
This Virgin Mobile page says this:

How do I extend the ring time for voicemail?

To see what each step looks like on your phone, just move your mouse over the text and check out the image.

1. All you need to do is:
2. From the main display, touch Phone.
3. Use the keypad and enter *#67#, touch the Call icon.
4. Make a note of the voice number that's displayed on your screen, including the + symbol.
Touch OK.
5. Enter the following code: **61*+44 Voicemail number **30#

This will mean that your phone rings for 30 seconds. You can alter this to ring for 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 seconds by replacing **30# with your choice of seconds. E.g. enter **15# if you want it to ring for 15 seconds.
6. Touch Call.
7. Touch OK.
8. The ring time will now be extended before diverting to voicemail.

Not 100% sure if this isn't carrier-dependent as Hadron indicated, but if the above doesn't work, then someone at Talkmobile should be able to provide the steps for their system.

Cheers!
