Change Google called id

<< < (3/3)

Someonee:
In the words of Ricky if you don't like it just pretend its not true. And its not because I believe it.

Lavarock7:
I would say this "Google does not pass along any caller ID sent with a call".

I meant to say that Google does not pass along any caller-ID sent to it.

As mentioned, Google either uses a generic number (or perhaps anonymous) OR it uses the telephone number associated with the Google account.

If you want to send a caller-ID use a Voip provider that supports it. Don't know which ones do? Ask any telemarketer...

Well I don't have a number and I still think the client plays a part. Not a 3rd party such as Google. Every client will ask you what caller id do you want displaying. In other words what number do you want others to see.

I was asking if obi would support this in the future.

Obi DOES support Caller ID spoofing in the circumstances where it is appropriate.  This extract is from the Admin Guide:

ITSP SIP Settings Parameter Guide:
X_SpoofCallerID
Allow outbound Caller ID spoofing. If set to Yes, device will attempt to set the caller-id name and userid field in the FROM header to that of a remote caller in the case of a bridged call (from another trunk, such as PSTN Line or another SP Service).
Otherwise, device always its own account information to form the FROM header.
 
Note that most service provider will not allow originating a call if the FROM header field does not match the account credentials. Enable this option only if you are sure that the service provider allows it, e.g. an IP PBX may allow it.

Also, some SPs will let you set your outgoing Caller ID to a number that they can verify you own.  For example I have an account with Localphone which I only use for outgoing calls.  It has no POTS number.  However outgoing calls on it display the number of my POTS line.
