"Hello" in Japanese

Does anybody know how to say "hello" in Japanese? I did a quick google search, and the first three translators I found came up with nothing.

Isn't it "Moshi Moshi"?

I'm not positive.

That is "Good Morning" not "Hello" I believe.

Daytime: ko ni chi wa
Evening: kon ban wa
On the phone: moshi moshi

All 'a's as in father
All 'o's as in cone
All 'i's as the 'ee' in bee
Run all the syllables together, equally stressed.

I think that is casual and only on the phone. Whatever one uses, it's important to end with, "...Mr. Roboto."
