I have deployed more than 200 IP650 with the same assembly as yours and
so far there are no problems.

I am using bootROM 4.2 and SIP 3.1.2
You may have a problem with the boot server or its permissions (just a
guess). You have to go through your boot server and find out why. No
easy way unfortunately.

I just tried changing my phone to Italiano and was successful.
The language files are in the SIP software and so maybe because you
cannot upgrade your SIP release, that is why you cannot switch to
Italiano.

Well done. BLF is not that straightforward for Polycom phones. Some
workaround is required.

The config of 650 is very similar to those of 330. By right, if it
works for 330, it should also work for 650.
Hope this helps!
