Is there a way to add background images for the SPA525G phones using CCA?

[Paul Santabarbara]

We have had a few customers ask about using a corporate logo image on their newly installed SPA525G phones.  I have seen a number of threads that explain adding .xml images for the older 7970 type phones.

Is there a simple way to load images to the phones via CCA?

Please advise, thank you.  Paul

I don't know of a way to do this in CCA but this will walk you through doing it manually on the phone.

Paul,

Happy New Year!

I am off but saw your post.

Patrick Born posted a how to note under IP Phones section.

Spa525s use USB stick with directory names a certain way and file types defined in that note. The USB can also play music.

I realize this means you have to stage all the phones manually until we can do this a more scalable way. Hope that's OK

Beth/Steven, thank you for the responses.  I followed the directions in the link provided, but the 525 did not "see" the image I saved in the "\pictures directory" folder.

I saved an image as 320x240, it is only 31Kb.  I tried .jpg, .bmp, .png.  Still nothing showing in the Wallpaper selections on the 525.

If anyone has something I am missing please advise.  Thank you!

HEre is the admin Guide for the SPA phones. It list some of the specifications for the .bmp file.
