Caller ID- how long does display of it last? Has this been anyone else's case?

I have this phone and I have it set to answer after 6 rings. When a call comes in, the display initially shows "Ringing", but before the second ring, it begins displaying the caller's ID. It continues showing the caller's ID through the remainder of the rings.

Yes, I can easily read the display. The background does not change color. It stays the same as it is when the phone is off (kind of a greenish color). When the phone rings the bar at the top blinks in red and the incoming name and number are in black.

No it doesn't on mine. Somebody has asked that before and was told that their unit did reference the phone book but mine does not. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the area code display function and how you set it up initially. Another issue for me is, I can't return a call from the caller ID display if it's long distance because there isn't a way to add the "1". My old unit, you could display the number on the caller ID, then press "1", then the dial function. This one won't do it. Again, I'm wondering if it's it the initial set up options.

No. It does not have caller ID. It is just a plain old corded phone. It's great to be able to slam down the hand piece to hang up on someone, for those annoying calls!! You can't do that with an iPhone!

I already had caller ID when Ibought this, so not sure. I bought it so I could monitor OUTGOING calls (time call was made and time length of call), because it tracks that as well, whereas standard modern phones do not. Will do this on any phone jack in the house, so if you have one not being used, nobody will notice this device.

I have the unit connected to the phone base unit. If you carry the phone elsewhere, you won't see it, but it still displays the calling number.

It does SHOW the name/number for a call-waiting incoming call. However, the talking caller ID only announces when it's the first call not a call-waiting.

My phone does not display caller I.D. However, I do not subscribe to Caller I.D. If as the other person who answered your question actually subscribes to Caller I.D. and I don't doubt that he/she does, then there is your answer. Mine apparantley doesn't display it because I don't subscribe to it and regretfully my instruction book for this phone has disappeared. I strongly defer to the positive response from the other person's answer to your question.

No. That's one of the problems. My programed numbers and other people's numbers do no appear as cell ID information. Either don't have it programed right or it does not work that way.

Looks like Google team solved inbound and outbound caller ID problems. I tested on both of my Google Voice accounts that weren't displaying caller IDs properly for the past two weeks, and both of them are now in working order. Setups in Google Voice account: Setting -&gt; Voice Setting -&gt; Calls -&gt; Caller ID (Incoming) -&gt; [x] Display caller's number Setting -&gt; Voice Setting -&gt; Calls -&gt; Caller ID (Outgoing) -&gt; [x] Display my Google Voice number Referred to the thread in Google Voice help forum as followed: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/voice/thread?fid=49c21d292e80ff6500049d6f011e0f37

I actually sent a few of those back because they didn't display the Caller ID. A check with the specs confirmed that.

The incoming number and caller ID are displayed when the phone rings and the number remains for a couple of seconds after answering the phone. After 2 or 3 seconds the incoming number is then replaced by a phone timer that shows the number of seconds the call has lasted... So while you are talking all that is displayed are called ID (If available) and the timer.

I think so, my power has not failed in sooooooooooooooo long I can't remember. I do remember it rang during the power failure but the Caller ID doesn't show up during the power failure and you can check any messages left on your phone. But you have program the phone before and after the power failure i.e date and year.

No problem, Noah. The large button just below the screen will handle many of your functions. I assume you want to check your Caller ID to see who's been calling you. On this model, just press the bottom of the button and each of your calls will be displayed on the screen, starting with the most recent. The name will display first, and then you can press the right side of the button and it will indicate the caller's number. You can even choose to save (or block) these numbers by following the on-screen instructions, using the "select" key and pressing the choices you want, in-sequence. Hope this is helpful to you.

So that's two definite "NO"s and a few "YES"s. One more time, I have caller I.D. through my telephone company -- will this phone display the name/number of whoever is calling?
