Obi 202, GV and Caller Id on destination phone calls

<< < (2/4) > >>

jimates:
the calls to your friend are in your history on google voice. Under one of them select the call link. In the drop down select Google Talk. Your phone connected to the Obi will ring, answer it and then google will call your friend.

kevmeist:
OK, thanks.

kevmeist:
Same problem occurs when I try that.

when you initiated the call from google voice, google placed the call for you. There is nothing you can do to change what is happening.

As far as I know, when I call anyone only my google voice number shows up, nothing for a name. I read a post today where they said when they call using google voice their call shows up as "Unknown" for the name and then their number. Perhaps this is what is happening for you and it is the "Unknown" that is getting your calls intercepted.

can you confirm if there is anything received on the other end in the name field.

kevmeist:
I don't think that he sees anything as call intercept is performed by Frontier (his phone company) and I have to announce who I am and the phone company asks him if he wants to accept the call. When hits "1" or whatever, the call is put through. This happens with one of his sons, But, nobody else.

I'll check with him.
