Vtech phone answering machine has garbled messages from callers

When I replay my messages, the voices are so garbled that I cannot understand the message left by the caller

  • mommabrumm Feb 18, 2009

    My dad and I both bought our sets within a month of each other.I got the two base set and he got the three bases. About a month after purchasing them, the incoming messages are static and not understandable. The outgoing message is fine and if you stand and listen, the incoming call is all messed up! At first we thought it was just some ironic thing, after reading a few other websites, we are not alone! You can't even tell who is speaking, let alone what they are saying. If this is a problem of Vtech phones, I will never purchase again! We got ours at Wal-Mart. Not worth it! I am very disappointed!

Is the OGM distorted on the callers phone or on the same speaker the incoming messages are heard?

If it's just the speaker, then the speaker itself or the amplifier drving the speaker is defective.

If the OGM is distorted for callers, then the signal processing before the amplifiers is defective.

More than likely it's a replace not a fix. The speaker unit itself will be very difficult to source. Maybe a very well stocked Radio Shack. Any electronics will likely be in a (custom?) integrated circuit.

Make sure answer machine function is turned on. Bottom right button.
Make sure an outgoing message is set. Should see a <-> arrow in the display screen. If not, press the <-> button. To record outgoing message... the press the middle button; record out going message; press middle button. Wait a few seconds and you should be set. Hope this helps

You have the answering machine set to announce only.

Press the menu button repeatedly until you hear the phone say "set announce only" Press the change button twice The first time tells you the current setting which is "on" the second time turns it off.

I have a model # CS6429-4 VTech digital answering system. The phone will not accept messages saying messages for Beth (me) is full and do I want to leave messages for another caller.

I believe you are reaching a Voice Mail system (VMail) from your service provider instead of the VTech answering machine.

Suggest you contact the same person who helped you with VMail to setup the VTech to answer the line before the VMail system.

Hint; Whose voice is it that says "Beth"?

How do I set up voice mail? and how do I fix the caller ID to work? I have vtech 5.8Ghz ia5824, Thanks

The 5824 is not an answering machine.

From the manual:
Your phone is designed to work with most local and regional telephone service provider's voice messaging systems, providing alerts on both the handset and telephone base when new messages come in.
Voice messaging is a subscription service, available through most service providers, for a fee. Contact your local telephone company for more information.

ATT 5840

The processor chip that records the voice is a multi level SMD technology chip. The tech who changes it will need the proper soldering facilities for this type of work.

The only people who can service the phone are the authorized service people for ATT. They will not sell parts to non authorized service people, even if they have the proper facilities to change the chip.

For service on your phone, the service center will normaly change the complete circuit board. If the phone is out of warranty, the cost would not be worth it.
