SipDroid Client on CUCM 7

[eoinwhite]

Hey,

Prevoisly i've managed to get Nokia phones running on SIP (and SCCP) but i'm struggling to get my Android phone registered using SipDroid client. Has anyone managed to get their Android phone registered to the call manager using any 3rd part Android SIP client.

TIA,

Eoin.

I think your previous thread was fine...lots of peope ask related questions within another thread.  Nonetheless, take a look at the following blog I wrote:

http://www.netcraftsmen.net/resources/blogs/sip-endpoints-in-cisco-cucm-acrobits-softphone-and-weephone-for-iphone.html?blogger=David+Hailey

This focuses on 2 iPhone SIP clients, but that doesn't matter.  Just follow the setup and if you need further assistance - let me know.

Well, I don't have information on Droid (but want to go get the phone to test now!).  Here is a write up on registering SIP clients using X-Lite as an example (should be very similar):

and one using iPhone as an example:

Previous thread was about sharing DN's on CME, that one is about registering Droid to CM.

Seem proper and correct to me, the fact that things often are not done right is not a reason to have them done wrong again.

Made a bit of progress but i still can't get it to succesfully register. The client returns a "Registration failed (400 Bad Request)".

Is there a way to packet capture directly on the call manager to get more info ... I think i did something simluar before not to sure.

[William Bell]

Sure.  I wrote a blog article on this here:

The capture facility on CUCM has several options.  Use the in-line help (?) to see all options.

HTH.

Got it working ... sort of. Its registered ... I wasn't putting in the correct username (extension) our extensions have are 4 digits as follows \+xxxx once i dropped the \ it worked.

However there is no audio on calls ... must be a codec issue, i'll play around and see if I can get it working.

[David Hailey]

Your extensions include a "\" ?

[eoinwhite]

Not really ... long story, the \ was used to integrate UCM with very early versions of Microsoft OCS.

[eoinwhite]

Weird .. when I make a call I have two way audio ... when I receive the call I have no audio.

I did it this way:

I added an user with the number of the phone to use (i.e. 682). To simplify, the password and pin was 682 too. I also added this user to the Standard CCM End Users and Standard CTI groups. Very important: the digest credentials have to be the same as password (I think SIP clients use the Digest Credentials as the validation).

Then I registered the Android device (HTC Desire) to CUCM using the MAC, as an Advanced Third Party SIP Phone, I added the name of the SIP user as the "Owner User ID" in the device configuration and checked the Media Termination Point Required box.

Then in Line Configuration I added the same user to "Users Associated with Line".

In the phone, the server was the IP address of the CUCM and user/ pass registered in the CUCM.

Hope it works for you!

This has been very helpful. I have my droid registered when i call the droid from my desk phone we can talk and everything works great. When i place a call from the droid it fails, any clue why?

[mrojasgue]

Have you checked the Media Termination Point Required box in the SIP Phone registered in the CUCM? try checking it for both phones, restart them, maybe restarting the Droid would help. Could be a codec problem; when I make a call I see it coming out as G.722.

[Tracy Larson]

Yes I have done that, the phone wont work without the MTP checked. We are forcing PCMulaw on the droid so that seems to work fine as well. I have rebooted the Droid as well. I dont have an MTP checkbox for my 7970 to check.

[mrojasgue]

Hmmm it could be the codec. In MTP Preferred Originating  Codec; I've got 711 ulaw. Maybe assigning a hardware transcoding resource will do the trick? When I stablish a call on my Desire, the call says "G.722 HD".
