Q: QuestionDora 7050 phone how do I change the ring time for incoming calls?

Asked 4 years ago by pawpaw.

• A:Answer THIS WORKS ONLY IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER CELLULAR CUSTOMER. I called Consumer Cellular, with whom I have my 'phone service for my Doro 7050. To extend the ring time to 30 seconds, I was told to type in this entire number, and then press "call" or "enter", and it would extend my ring time to 30 seconds: * * 61* 502 758 3001 **30# Then turn off your 'phone and turn it back on, again, and your ring time should be 30 seconds. I was also told that--sometimes--the above doesn't work for whatever reason, in which case I should call Consumer Cellular again, and ask them to change my ring time to 30 seconds manually (which will take 24-48 hours to take affect). After 24 or 48 hours, be sure to turn off your 'phone and then turn it back on.

Q: QuestionHave a doro 7050. when a key is pressed, it repeats.so most times i have to start dialing again. the keys seem very sensitive. how can this problem be fixed?

Asked 5 years ago by harryjr.

• A:Answer I have called several times about this problem, but have not gotten a satisfactory solution. I've been told to update the software or shock the system by removing, then replacing the battery. Nothing works--I'm convinced that some of the phones are lemons.

Q: QuestionMy phone regularly goes into "Emergency Call Only" mode so I can't make any outgoing calls. Why? What can be done?

Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer We have suffered through a half-dozen doro 7050's. We continue to use it because it is the only one I have found with a strong contrast of a white background and black buttons for our very sight-challenged father. It is amazing that manufacturers of sight-impaired phones don't realize this. At least monthly the problem of the phone just not making or receiving calls comes up. We have found that simply removing the battery for a minute and replacing and restarting usually does the trick. Kind of like the old ctrl-alt-delete for computers....Good luck.

Q: QuestionCan someone pls confirm that this phone has voice command i.e., will let my parents verbally initiate phone calls??

Asked 5 years ago by bm67.

• A:Answer As far as I know, the phone does not permit voice commands. However, it is Bluetooth capable, so if it is connected to a Bluetooth device and the phone's contact list contains the phone numbers your parents wish to call, then it can be voice activated.

Q: QuestionCan I keep my phone number through t-mobile.

Asked 6 years ago by Spark.

• A:Answer Call consumer cellular 888.345.5509 CC gives you a SIM card. Most people can transfer their existing cellphone number to Consumer Cellular. It depends on where you live and your old service provider. Follow these guidelines for a successful transfer: Do not cancel your number with your old service provider. Your phone number must remain active during the transfer process. Once the number is transferred to Consumer Cellular, it should automatically be disconnected by your old service provider. Once the transfer is complete and you are receiving calls to your Consumer Cellular phone, you may want to call them to confirm cancellation. If the number is in a contract, you may be charged an early termination fee by your old service provider. When you set up your Consumer Cellular account, you will need to have all of the account information for your old service provider, including the account number, account holder’s name, billing address, and any password or PIN on the old account. You may want to have an old invoice with you when you set up your new account.

Q: QuestionCan this phone be unlocked?

Asked 5 years ago by ARD1.

• A:Answer Yes, according to my recent experience with Consumer Cellular (CC), you must activate and be on their network for at least 30 days, then you can request they provide you with a code to unlock your phone. As a note, do not cancel the CC service before calling your new carrier to port the current telephone number to them as if you cancelled first you will be forced to get a new number.
