similar to: Polycom 1.5.2 call waiting focus behaviour change?

I'm running SIP 1.5.2 firmware with a 2.6.2 bootrom on a mix of Polycom 500s and 501s. I'm having a problem with NTP and I'm not sure if it's a configuration issue or a bug in the firmware. I've got the NTP server and GMT offset set in sip.cfg. However, not all phones are in the same timezone. I was under the impression that I could override the offset on a per-phone basis

I've got a problem that keeps popping up with my reception phone. It is a IP 650 and the receptionist - on three occassions - has accidentally hit the "Forward" softkey just before she enters the "Page All" keystrokes and then all future calls get routed as an overhead page. I will admit, the first time it happened, I was totally stumped. Why the heck did I have

We upgraded to Asterisk 1.4.13 earlier this week, and now an odd problem has cropped up with our Polycom phones. Basically, performing a transfer via the transfer softkey fails on transfers to extensions beginning with a *. When you try, you just get a fast-busy, and next to nothing on the console (usually a message about the peer being unable to authenticate) This is only affecting

Only slightly asterisk related I suppose, but hoping someone has attempted this... I have an old installation with a bunch of IP501s, and one died. I replaced it with an IP450, and the user sorely misses his DND button. I hated those DND buttons anyway, as I couldn't control them centrally. I'd *like* to program one of his softkeys to send a *XX sequence to do DND on the

I don't know if Polycom decided to change their policy or not, but I just went to their website and when you click on the downlooad link, it will now present you with an option to join their extranet. I did that and I got the following message immediately: <snip> Access to certain Resource Center sections and content are subject to approval. Eligible members, will receive further

I found on the web that there is way to customize the softkeys for the 7941/7961 phones. In the SEP<mac>.xml there is a section called "softKeyFile" where you can specify an xml file for the softkeys. I couldn't find any examples of this softkey file or the format to this file. Does anyone have a call manager enviroment where they can look at this file and send me an

Hello, I have seen the Mitel 5055 SIP phone mentioned a few times on the list, does anyone have any wonderful or horrible things to say about it? We are thinking about using them because they have many more programmable buttons than the Snom200 phones and are about $70 cheaper. Thanks, MATT---

Anyone have shared lines (sla.conf) working with Polycom phones? Also, has anyone figured out if its possible to do 1 button call park with the softkeys?

Greetings, Has anyone noticed that attempting to place a call from the "Placed Calls" list on a Polycom IP501 by pressing the 'Dial' softkey sometimes simply returns the phone to the idle screen? It is not related to the number being dialed, as we have observed two entries for the same number, one of which worked and the other didn't. We've experimented with calls

Has anyone been able to do the following: 1. Set the phone to automatically record all calls to the USB stick, now you have to press three keys. 2. Put Record on the main screen when a call is active. This would eliminate having to press the 'more' softkey. Thanks, Matt

We are installing Aastra phones (480's and 57i's) into a fairly simple asterisk setup. Although call park & pickup work fine using xfer to 700 (to park), dial 701 (to pickup), we are unable to make the park/pickup softkey feature work on the aastra's. Although we've programmed the softkeys per the manuals, they seem to have no effect (just dead). For example, our 57i is

The Karma Hall Of Fame is now available at: http://bugs.digium.com/karma_halloffame.php Users with negative karma aren't named'n'shamed..

Right now you need a 12 or above to feature on the list, and there's a boat load of people just

When I want to pick up a ringing line, I dial *8 and hit New Call softkey on my Poly 501. For some reason, if I pick up the hand set and dial *8, it seems to ignore or drop the 8 digit. I've confirmed that this happens with all of my 12 Polycom 501s. Does anyone know what would cause this or how to fix it?

I've somehow managed to battle may way through hinting issues with type=peer type=friend and various other oddities and now have presence working correctly on my Polycom 600 and Grandstream GXP-2000 phones. However, on the Polycom I have to press the Buddies softkey in order to see if an extension with a hints priority is in use or not. I've spent all day going through google and my

On the landing page of the Polycom web site there's a "We're listening" nanosurvey, asking what is the one thing Polycom can do to improve their products. The link points here: http://polycom.zuberance.com/survey.htm I wrote a sentence about tweaking the user interface on the IP Soundpoint series phones, so that one can escape any level of any menu with repeated pressing of the

I don't know if this is already common knowledge, and it's not specificly for Asterisk, but if you are using Cisco phones and want to roll XML applications, make sure you have "Connection: close" in your HTTP header. Without it screen loads are very sluggish. In PHP, do: header("Connection: close"); I whipped up quick-and-dirty PHP/MySQL/Cisco XML directory and

I am posting here since you guys are my last hope. I am trying to configure a Polycom Soundpoint IP 335 with MWI. Is there any way to eliminate the scrolling messages and Msgs softkey? I am trying to get it where it's just the light that indicates the new messages. I don't know if Asterisk has to send a different notification or what have you. Thanks, --Eric -------------- next

Hey Everybody, You may remember be as the one that was generally running in circles trying to get ADSI phones to work? Well, five phones later, I've got a phone and a code that works to program it. I have been discouraged from just posting it to an e-mail forum, but I have been encouraged to get it embedded in the program. Is this possible? How should it be done? Next, after getting it

If you have experience with these phones... We are trying to figure out how to transfer an established call on the SPA504G while a second call is incoming. At present, the receptionist has to answer every single incoming call before the XFER softkey is seen again. This is completely unpractical for a receptionist that may have 4 or more calls coming in at the same time. When the
