Someone who uses a speaker phone to feel like they’re important or doing some sort of important business even thought it’s for something stupid.
Mike hated talking to speaker phony customers. He couldn’t hear half the shit they said and, because they were only ordering pizza, he thought they could just pick up the phone instead of trying to shout at it from half way across the room.
“That guy was such a speaker phony. He called in to talk about his late fee and was 'too busy' to use the regular phone because he was playing x-box 360.”

Someone who places themselves on a superficial pedestal above other people. Then, in order to reassure themselves of their place, they call everyone else "phonies".

A person who claims military heroics or credentials, but either exaggerates his service or never served at all. Often supported by the anti-war left until caught. Most famously used by Rush Limbaugh during a 2007 radio show

Using a fake voice while talking on the phone. Not really a change in the voice as much as the manner in which you speak.
Talking to someone you are not close/comfortable with. Speaking slower, more clearly, using words and a tone that is very different than when talking to a good close friend.
Telemarketers voice. Talking to a relative you're not close to. How you would speak on a phone interview.
My stepmother called, I had to use my phony voice with her.
