If a phone rings once and then goes to voicemail or rings only briefly, it usually means either that your call is blocked or that the phone is not receiving calls at all. It could be turned off, in airplane mode, or somehow configured not to accept any calls.
Also to know is, how many times does the phone ring when you are blocked?
If the phone rings more than once, you have been blocked. However, if you hear 3-4 rings and hear a voicemail after 3-4 rings, you have probably not been blocked yet and the person has not picked your call or might be busy or is ignoring your calls.
Likewise, how many times does a phone ring before voicemail?
System default setting is 30 (32) seconds = 8 rings assuming your phone is on and in touch with the network, if not, the call will usually go directly to voicemail with no rings. You can request a shorter period of time. I have found that 20 seconds is about right in the professional world.

How can you tell if someone rejects your call?
If upon placing the phone call, it rings only once or twice and goes to voicemail then your calls are probably being declined. This is because the recipient of the phone call has manually clicked the “decline” call option on their phone.

When someone blocks your number does it go straight to voicemail?
If you're blocked, you would only hear a single ring before being diverted to voicemail. An unusual ring pattern doesn't necessarily mean your number is blocked. It may just mean the person is talking to someone else at the same time you're calling, has the phone off or sent the call directly to voicemail.
Is their phone dead or am I blocked?

What does it mean when a phone goes straight to voicemail without ringing?
It may just mean the person is talking to someone else at the same time you're calling, has the phone off or sent the call directly to voicemail. If the one-ring and straight-to-voicemail pattern persists, then it may be a case of a blocked number.
How many times does a phone ring if the call is ignored?
If everything you call and it goes straight to voicemail, they have blocked you completely. If you call and it rings a few times then goes to voice mail means they are pressing the ignore button. Now if you call more than 2 or 3 times with no answer but the person normally answers, then that's a clue..
What does two rings then voicemail mean?

Can I change the number of rings before going to voicemail?
The number of rings on your Android phone is controlled by your service provider and can't be changed in your phone's settings. However, you can often use a self-service code to set an amount of time the call will ring before transferring—between 5 to 30 seconds.
How many times should you let a phone ring?
When answering a business phone it is important that it is not allowed to ring more than three times. Advise employees that the second or third ring is the ideal time to pick up the telephone. The phone should be answered with a positive greeting such as “Hello,” “Good Morning,” or “Good Afternoon,” etc.
