In misc forum posts I have seen comments referencing the use of *67 and *82 and *99 and **1 before dialing for various options.
Is there a central Ooma list of *asterisk star options and their intended purposes?
Thanks
Dan

**number pre-dialing is to reflect alternate outgoing callerid if you have more than 1 number assigned to you Ooma device: viewtopic.php?t=10551

For star dialing:

If you have default to block your outgoing caller ID:
Dial *82 in front any the number you want and the call will be unblocked for that call

If you have default in my to allow your outgoing caller ID :
Dial *67 in front of any number to block your caller id for that call.

Dial *70 in front of any number to disable call waiting for that call.

SUMMARY of codes:
*67 Block caller ID
*82 Enable caller ID
*70 Disable call waiting
*69 Call return

*99 before a fax

Search for "*" in this document:

Thanks,
I believe that that is the pdf I was looking for.

Here are the start codes I have found that work with my Ooma Telo. I tried all of the *xx combinations and there were a couple that I could not find documented... Anyone want to add to the list?

Note: This list was made for the Ooma Telo, When I have been informed by someone that a feature does not work on the Ooma Hub, I put a (NH) after the command.

Code: Select all*15, *16, *17, *18, *19 - Call number using bluetooth headset 1,2,3,4,5 (NH)
*06, *06, *07, *08, *09 - Intercom with bluetooth headset 1,2,3,4,5 (NH)
*67 - Do Not Send Caller ID
*69 - Return last call
*70 - Disable Call Waiting Tone
*82 - Send Caller ID
*91 - ????
*96 - Use iLBC Codec
*97 - ????
*98 - Use G711 Codec w/o Fax mode (NH)
*99 - Data/Fax call

*#483 - Google Voice

*#*#001 - Speak the current Telo Version (available in April '11)
*#*#501 - Bluetooth Discovery (NH)

I think max of 4 headsets are supported so don't think there are *19 and *09.

Where did you see *91, *97 referenced?

*96 is iLBC? Where did you see this?
*98 is G711? What is G711 without Fax mode?

*96 and *98 I saw in the release notes for various versions in forums...

*91 and *97 I found by trying every * number between 00 and 99 and they were the only other ones not to give me a busy signal.

Got it. So *91 and *97 may have some function behind them we don't know what they are.

Also since forum search here doesn't like 3 chars and special chars, I had to bing it and found....

Try it first with HD voice disabled (dial *96 before you make the call), and then again with HD voice enabled to really hear the difference!

Add *98 to force G711 calls (without fax mode)

I still don't know what without fax mode means though

Echo cancellation is turned off in FAX mode so I'm guessing it means echo cancellation is left enabled.

From Release notes for Rev. 31387 it looks like *98 enables G711 codec on a per call basis . . . without actually having to enable fax mode in Preferences.
