As the title states, my phone is flashing all three colors. The only thing that changed before this started happening, is that the phone was unplugged to be cleaned. After plugging it back in, the top buttons on both sides of the screen are flashing through each color, red, amber, and green. I am logged into it correctly and the phone appears to function as it should. I could not find anything online about all three colors flashing like this. I only found reasons for flashing of single colors. Any ideas?

Try plugging it into another switchport or do a factory reset if the issue persists.

I just encountered this issue today on a 8841 for the first time. We did have a maintenance last night that took our primary data center offline. Issue is only occurring on one phone (of 200+) at a branch office. So far, a factory reset did not resolve.

I have a phone with the same issue. We replaced the phone and I have it in my office now. Different port/switch stack + tried factory resetting the phone but the line and session key continually change colors.

The phone ended up being moved to another work area altogether, and plugged into another port. The issue persists. At this time though, we won't be doing a factory reset, since the phone appears fully functional despite the flashing lights. Thanks!

Robert,
Our IT dept. opted not to do a reset, since the phone is fully functional, despite the flashing lights. So, there was no fix attempted.

I do have the same issue. The phone was shipped with sip88xx.10-3-1-20 firmware. Of course the first step we did the update firmware to 11-5-1 but it did not help at all. I have tried to reset factory settings, restore CTL and ITF files it did not help as well. Then I tried to unplug the phone from ethernet and power it on by the brick, supposing that the phone could not adjust SIP signaling with CUCM. I repeated the previous steps but this could not fix the problem.
May be someone can suggest any indications in log file of the device that can help to finde out the way to solve that problem?

I suppose this may be some kind of bug. Before I posted my issue, I scoured the web and I tried very hard to find any other reports of this issue. And I read though the user guides and tried very hard to find a solution to the issue before reporting it. And now, even though I thought it was a one-off and I might be the only one experiencing this, there is a growing number of people commenting that they are experiencing the same issue. I am fairly new to this community. Do you know if Cisco monitors it and provides assistance, especially if they notice a growing issue?

Hi
Just wondered if anybody had got any further with this.
We had a power down over the weekend and one of the phone has come back doing the same thing.
I have logged into the phone and captured logs and it appears that the phone is constantly trying to establish a call to itself, see below log from handset.
Has anybody seen this before ?

I have this problem too. The PC connects to the phone and the phone is connected to the wall-jack. The phone causes the PC's network connection to drop because the phone reboots every once in a while. I get the same Green, Amber, Red lights on the top buttons. I had to replace the phone because the user was frustrated with loosing network connectivity.
