What exactly is the problem with the phone? The "update failed" message can occur because the firmware on the system is too old for the phone - but it shouldn't stop the phone working.

The latest phone firmware is on Ciscos web site (But you'll need some form of support contract to get it, I believe.)
According to
you can't use third-party cameras with the 99xx phones.

Thanks Again Gordon
when i checked status of my IP Phone then i received theses messages
Status Message Display Window
How cansolve these error ?
When i tried to download 9.X or 10.X received " service contract required"
How can i solve this issue also ?

If you're trying to download 10.x, it sounds like you're trying to download CallManager, rather than the device firmware. The latest firmware for the 9971 is 9.4(1)
To get the device firmware, go Dowloads -> Products -> Collaboration Endpoints -> IP Phones -> Cisco Unified IP Phone 9900 Series - > 9971 -> SIP Software
Direct link:
You can ignore those other two errors. They're not really errors, just notices.

Hi Waqas,
it seems the file which u have downloaded is corrupt.after u download the file, verify the checksum .it should be 1e8f68d89e07238355e0608d3ffbf357.
the same can done by downloading FastSum utility from google.com
Unzip the files and upload all of them one by one.there is no need of copying them on DVD.You can use transfer protocol SFTP by using freeftpd software and upload them on servers.Use directory as /
retstart the tftp service after uplaoded successfully.

Hi Waqas,
you can upgrade one of the 9971 IP phones first .after u upload the firmware , u need to restart the tftp service.
u can refer this DOC to upgrade one of the phone. you need to configure the new firmware under Phone Load Name option.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/products_tech_note09186a0080a277a3.shtml
So, u need to enter sip9971.9-4-1-9
I am attaching snapshot of unzipped firmware.
Never tried with USB drive.

Please check whether all files have been uploaded successfully or not.
Enter the starting name of each file and then, find.
