Iāve had times when my caller ID showed that I was calling from that very phone, but I didnāt have sense enough to answer it.
Iāve also had my phone call 911 on itās own (not a butt-dial ā there was a thunderstorm on at the time), which brought the Sheriff deputies knocking on my door.
Back in the 60ās and 70s, when landlines were the only kind of phones, there was a number we could dial that would make our phone ring. Youād dial it, hang up, and it would make sure your ringer was working.
I was at a small weekday church service recently, and right before it started, my I-phone went off. The leader said, āThatās not the song weāre going to sing!ā. So I replied, āBut at least we all know that one.ā
I consider myself fairly technologically proficient so Iām going to ask a silly question: is that possible? Mine goes to my voice-mail box for me to check messages.

As it possible Opal more likely hit the ringer option in the sound file where you can choose how you want your ringer to sound?

Back in the days of rotary dialing & mechanical switches, we used to be able to dial our own number & hang up in time to make it ring.

Only two times so far, but my landline phone told me I was calling myself. I didnāt WANT to talk to myself, so I didnāt answer.

Occasionally a cell phone doesnāt display caller information when the user is attempting a call at the same moment a call is incoming.
