cellphone ring amplifier

can anyone tell me if there is a device that you can plug your cellphone into so that
it rings more like a regular land line phone, so that you can hear it in other rooms, or
at night. thanks so much

brickydawg, thanks for giving more information on your problem. Sometimes these questions arent legitimate or a kid fooling around asking silly questions, if you know what i mean.

I checked around and found that Verizon has a cell phone for severe hearing loss and it is the model LG 4650 flip phone.

I didnt locate an add on feature to amplify sound on cell phones.

Sorry, best I could do.

I have an idea, but would need to know if it might work before I go researching possible products.

If it would be OK if you placed the phone near a small microphone.

A microphone + pre-amp + amplifier could work.

So could a wireless microphone system. I'm afraid of the cost though.

I have another idea as well. Why not forward your cell to the landline, if you have one?

For att it's *21*<phone number>#

To remove forwarding it's #21#

thanks for a useful answer. that sounds as if it would work. it might be worth checking into. I just figured with all the tech available, surely I could find something.
