BTW, I've got some gigaset handsets (C470 and an A510H) and an old android phone set up as a SIP handset. The android phone is far superior. If I cared enough about it, I'd probably scrounge up a few old phones and get rid of the gigaset stuff entirely.
What software do you use? I have found recently that csipsimple is not always reliable - especially with outgoing calls. It has a habbit of weird behaviour (e.g. after hanging up sip connection it will immediately make an outgoing mobile connection to the same number), and not always reliable (displays "calling" for outgoing calls with no ringing indication even though the call has actually been answered, leaving the caller wondering what is going on) and sometimes completely crashes during calls. Last update appears to be 2014, in Google Play store. I seem to recall another piece of software (I can't recall the name) that looked good on the surface, but had a fundemental problem with tones received while making outgoing calls (or something like that) and the author wasn't interested in fixing ("it works for me"). -- Brian May <brian@linuxpenguins.xyz> https://linuxpenguins.xyz/brian/
