I need to buy more of these phones...but truthfully I am dissapointed. Why can't we have music or a custom message playing while on hold?

I would seriously think about buying additional phones. We're at the point (with enough failed units) that we will shortly be replacing ALL with another brand. These phones are horrendous. Multiple phones have quit over the last year or two. There is no excuse RCA. These are pure junk.

I actually found it when I looked in the manual. There aren't many musical ringtones like in my last phone.

Yes you can add handsets. Music on hold needs to be supplied by an outside source connected by a 1/8" audio cable.

Based on my experience, I wouldn't bother trying. When I changed the tone to any tone other than the default tone it wouldn't work ... silence ... missed a lot of calls before i figured it out. Hate to be a downer, but that's just a lousy phone in a lot of ways, I finally got rid of it.

That really sucks. This really looks like a fantastic piece of kit. Not having MMS is putting a serious dent in my desire for this device. =/

Hi, this music on hold player is made to work with any phone or phone system with a music on hold jack. A music on hold jack is simply an 'audio in' jack. A headset jack is an 'audio out' jack i.e. your phone sends audio out from the phone into your headset. Hence, there are no music on hold systems sodl by any company that works with a headset jack.Regards, Greg

You can put music on mute or hold, I never tried it with a phone call. I imagine it depends on the capability of Your phone. I know I can swap 2 calls with call eaiting

No there isn't, unfortunately. There's only one button, for pausing music and/or accepting incoming calls.

In addition to your customized message, there are two standard messages you can select. One says leave a message, etc, the other just announces that you got the call (retrievable from the call list) in the event that you have call messaging turned off.

ha, ha, sorry, but the phone came with one piece of music. of course we never heard it but the patients complained - a lot - so one day (non patient day) we listened! hard to describe it but it sounded like a circus tune but with a funeral sound. but to answer your question, there is a section in the base phone booklet that tells you about mp3 music to the phone. at 71yrs of age I will not even attempt this and the staff just does not have time. so our hold is silent and the patients are happy.

I just bought these phones. Now I know why it chimes. I have another issue. I plug the phones and they work fine. Then for some reason when I receive a call you can't answer it. You push the "talk" button and it won't answer. If you take the battery out of the phone and put it back it works but only for a short time. It then goes right back to the same behavior. Looks like I should have read the reviews before buying.

Thanks for your interest on our items.This feature really depends on whether your cell phone carrier allows it or not. The phone itself does have the capability.We look forward to have you as a customer.Thanks,Gus

I play music from my phone and only pause when i need to answer a call. I have had no problems with it. Good Luck:)

Yes! Just click the button on the controller once while your phone is ringing to answer, and click again to hang up. Your music resumes after the phone call.

Yes it has music on hold, but you will want to change it. We purchased a cordless handset and ear piece with ours. Biggest drawback to this phone is that the base station phone does not have speed dial buttons.

There are no API available for interacting with the phone. It comes with the iPhone and Android app.
