If you are talking using the headset, does an incoming call register on the handset?

Yes, all you have to do is press the CID (Caller ID) on the phone and you can see who is calling. To take that call and put your current call on hold, from the handset press the talk button and it will answer you incoming call. To get back to your previous caller, press talk again. Love the VTech phone system.

Could not tell you.....We have had the phone less than a year. I m the only one who uses the headset. It broke. Basically, all of the cordless phones are either junk or the company who makes them cannot be held accountable for their inferior products. I would not spend much, because no matter the brand (I have tried them all........) the phone will invariably will fail. And I am extremely careful with my phones. In other words, clean home, pride of ownership, etc. If you find another brand,and have success, let me know.....

Hi, It depends a little on the phone base you are paring with. This worked for me (AT&T Dect 6.0 answering machine base). 1. Remove the headset from the charger base 2. Press the Intercom/Handset locator on the master base unit (base "in Use" light turns on) 3. Return the headset to charging base (master displays "Registering") Ready to use.

Hey, you can't make a call with just the headset. you have to use your phone. I will like to recommended you to buy it tho. It's one of the best I have ever use. I'm being honest with you bro. I never had a problem with it.

I use the "voice dial" with my Speakerphone and it works just fine. Check your phone for the "voice dial" feature. The Speakerphone will continue to receive calls. If you do not have "voice dial" you will need your phone to place your calls.

Yes it announces the incoming phone number. To use voice dialing you have to build a phone book in the Jawbone application on a pc and download the phone book to the headset. I have a few numbers built in. You press the button and say call (NAME) and it does.

You can trasfer calls while using the headset, however there is not a button on the headset that you would push. You would trasfer a call by selecting your trasfer button on your phone. The headset is beneficially used only as an ear piece to allow hands free. You would use your phone the same way you would if you were using the hand held receiver. The only difference is you do not have to touch the handheld receiver at all.

No, you need an A-10 cord which connects the headset to a land line with a standard handset cord. You can contact Headsets.com and they can tell you what headset will work with your phone.

No. It says "incoming call." You can answer by saying "answer," or ignore by saying "ignore." But it works very well for me!

You can connect it and talk/listen using the headset but you still need the handset to open/close the call. So it is not a "full" solution.

Yes - the button on the headset is used to both answer and terminate calls, and you get an audio notification stating "Incoming call from XXX-XXX-XXXX" (or something to that effect.) The only real shortcoming is that you cannot initiate calls from the headset - you have to manually dial them at the phone, but putting a touch-tone keypad on the headset would probably look a bit silly. Overall, the product is decent. I sometimes get a bit of an echo when I have the volume turned to high on the headset, but I'm not sure it's the headset and not my crummy phone. Hope this helps, -Mike.

with having the headset connected to the handset, you can still use the handset. for the headset there is a button to press when you want to use the headset, and when you want to use the handset only, just make sure the button isn't pressed down. the buttons also have light indicators. hope that helps :)

Yes. The phone is just acting as a convenient handset. The call is still going through your cellular carrier.

Just answer the phone regularly, since it is plugged into the headphone jack when it turns on the incoming call will come through the phone speakers and just project your voice loud enough or towards the phone if possible. That little hole on the top of the mm is the microphone I believe.

I no longer use this earpiece but if I recall correctly... it only announces the NUMBER calling NOT the contact name stored in your phone. As for voice call using contact name stored...No to that as well. I hope this helps.

it is a landline that comes with the headset....it is just different in that you use the headset to place or receive a call.

You can press the button on the headset to answer the call ,but the call gets routed from the phone to the headset. So you need it nearby .

Land line and paired cell phones can all receive calls iwithout impairing. In the case of my iPhone, incoming mobile calls ring on the Panasonic with the cell phone's ring tone.
