 integrating their app with a SIP client such as PJSIP, and then

Thanks for the reply.  Do you know of any example code showing this
functionality?

Hi Greg,

I think caller id is not sent by the phone that makes the call but is
actually served to the receiving phone by the company at the other
end.

This might exists as an option in some professionnal phone contract.
You should call the phone company which have the sale's staff
contract.

I'm not sure but you could also take a look at google voice that gives
a fair amount of freedom with what you do with your phone numbers.

But It won't be Android related.

 I have a client who wishes to spoof the caller id for his phones he
 assigns to his sales staff.  He wants the number to appear to be from
 his main office to better handle return calls from potential buyers.

 Is this possible?  After reading many posts on this list and much time
 Google'ng, I'm thinking it's not.  Meanwhile he is pointing to his
 internal phone system which does exactly as he described.  All his
 office phones appear to dial out from the same number as far as the
 receivers caller id is concerned.  How can I pull off the same on
 Android?

 Thanks,

Greg,  You can spoof the caller's number (referred to as the A-Number

One MIGHT be able to work a deal with the phone's service provider
where it would be reported as the other number.  But this would
probably not work when roaming, even if you could swing it.

Have the Androids dial into a forwarding gizmo (I forget the official
phone biz term) in his hardwired phone system.  Otherwise, I'd hope
you can't do it, at least not to an arbitrary phone number (where you
don't have some sort of certificate authorizing you to the number).
