When I hang up the phone on the cradle I have to press the off switch or it will not disconnect the call. Is this right or a bad phone?

You must always hit the OFF button to end a call. This is the way the phones work.

You need to press the off button. Cradle is just for charging. Phone is not bad. It's a great phone. I have several and add more as needed

I bought 5 of these phones for my small business and I tried everyone of them to see if they disconnected when put back on the cradle. Everyone of them hung up without pressing the off switch. So you definitely have a problem with your phone.

Bad phone or bad cradle. Ours disconnects when you return it to the cradle. Does the phone charge on the cradle okay?

I have experienced the same, I guess it is beacuse the phone has two SIM card cradles.

The phone itself is too big for the cradle. But you can hook it up to the jack and have it laying close to you. If you do this though, I would consider an extension as the cord provided is pretty short.

I don't have a problem. Sound quality is good. As for the caller, I have not any complaints. This is my second otter box.

Maybe your phones are okay. Mine were not. Many things wrong...rang when nobody was thereand so on. So bad that I sent it back to Amazon from whom I had bought it. Big NO to this phone.Don't have it now so can't answer about the non-slip back.

There is an off switch, but I have never tried by providers answering system. I can tell you that the phone itself is marvelous. his is the 2nd DECT 6 phone system I've had. I literally gave the 1st one away because I wanted a more modern phone. They are very clear and do not drop calls. You can't go wrong. Hope this helps.

I have 12 of these phones in my business, and have never had an experience like that. I suspect it is a problem with the telephone. If you have more than 1, try disconnecting them 1 at a time, to see if they all have the same problem. Also make sure that the right hand button that says "CELL" is not in the "ON" position. Next contact Uniden, their products are usually pretty good quality.

I haven't had any trouble with mine disconnecting unless I walk too far away from the phone. If I walk too far away I will loose the connection.

I also find it hard to take the case off the phone, but I think that's a good thing because I don't want the phone to accidentally come out of the case. However, I did accomplish it once by starting at the corner near the volume buttons. The case seems to be weakest there. Then I worked my way down that edge, pushing the case back as I went. (By the way, my original comment in my review was that I found it easy to remove the phone, in its case, from the holster. Some reviewers said they had trouble answering the phone because they could not pull the phone from the holster. I hope that I did not cause any confusion.)

I do not have a problem with the power button. It is a little firm, but I only use one hand to turn my phone off.

I got the cord on Amazon. It was the standard cord but the cradle I could never get to work. The little plug that are to touch the phone didn't seem to touch and it never charged. I spent money on the cradle and it was hard to find. Never used it. sorry

I have to occasionally clean the cradle contacts on the side of the phone to stop this problem. I use the tip of a nail file, gently, to scrape the contacts clean.

Yes it is, this phone won't stay in the cradle, I have moved it to the garage where it gets very little use :(.

The speaker phone is on the actual handset. I'm almost certain when you put the phone on the base it hangs up the call. Hope this helps!

If your asking about a phone getting too hot in the cradle, I dont suspect that would be an issue. I really like mine and currently use it with a galaxy note 3. I currently will get a bar of 4g just about everywhere where I would only get 3g otherwise, And I get full bars(4) where I used to only get 2-3. Keep in mind that the phone has to stay in the cradle to get the antenna boost. So you may want to invest in a bluetooth headset to get the most out of using the booster. Also, I switched phones during my use of this, and I am glad I kept the extra "wings" that come with it to fit additional phones.

My unit goes off and on again when the battery is running down. Putting it in the charger for a short time will usually get me through the day. If you know you will have a long day, try and take just the cradle with you and charge during a quiet time of the day.

Yes. I lay the handset to the side, and just hold down the hook (dial-tone button) when I want to begin or end the call. That's easier than lifting the handset each time.
