Uniden 2.4 GHz Expandable Phone System with Digital Answering Machine - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Phone won't hang up
I solved this exactly problem by doing this:
1) unplug base station from phone line
2) unplug base station from power cube
3) open each phone and disconnect battery (do not replace phone in charger; just let it sit)
4) wait 30 minutes (per instructions from Uniden)
5) reconnect batteries in phone sets
6) reconnect power cube to base station
7) reconnect base station to phone line
8) test: make a call. Hang up. Wait one minute. Pick up line and see if you get a dial tone.
(Basically you're "rebooting" the system. You don't know where the fault lies, so you power down every component to make sure you get it. The '30 minutes' is longer than I'm used to, but after being on hold with Uniden tech support for 20 minutes and finally getting through, the instructions from them were very clear: AT LEAST 30 minutes. OK! I did it - and it worked!)

Our just started to do the same thing. Drove us crazy because there were no messages. I couldn't find the manual so I looked up the manual on their website. Here's how to fix it....IT WORKS! With the phone in "stand by", open the menu and select Global Setup.Select VMWI reset. Then select yes.

UNIDEN USE 800 MAH RECHARGEABLE CELLS (3 X 1.2 VOLT = 3.6 VOLTS) IN THEIR BATTERY. SIMPLEST SOLUTION IS TO CATCH HOLD OF THREE AAA RECHARGEABLE CELLS OF 900 MAH RATING OF ANY GOOD COMPANY AND ASK YOUR HOBBYIST FRIEND TO SOLDER THEM IN SERIES AND USE THE CONNECTION TAG FROM THE OLD BATTERY - RED WIRE TO POSITIVE AND BLACK TO NEGATIVE TERMINALS OF THE NEWLY SOLDERED BATTERY. CELLOTAPE THE THREE CELLS TO HOLD THEM TOGETHER. HOPE IT HELPS.

You can find the manual on Uniden's website, on the support page. Troubleshooting in that manual would be your best bet.

Hi there.
Hit the talk button without dialing a phone number and see if you are getting the noise without actually dialing someone. If so, try again this time closer to the base. If this is the case, it is possible that you have a defective handset.
If you are getting the noise when you are actually talking to someone, talk to you service provider to have your phone service checked.
Also, if you have a DSL internet service at home, make sure that you are using a DSL filter.
Hope this helps.
Thank you for using Fixya!
