Changing background on a 7970 phone with UC500

Submitted by jyoo on Wed, 10/17/2007 - 11:52

Hey guys,

Does anyone know how to change the default background image of a 7970 connected to a UC520 device?

I know that the UC520 is the TFTP server but I cannot find the List.xml file anywhere which is supposed to be responsible for the background image.

Thanks,

John

Regarding the "% unknown Regarding the "% unknown command or computer name" comment --- You have to issue these commands from configuration. conf t tftp-server flash:/Desktops/320x212x12/List.xml issue the same command above for all your png files as well (example) tftp-server flash:/Desktops/320x212x12/Image1.png tftp-server flash:/Desktops/320x212x12/Image2.png ect... Then write your config and the images will become available on your phone. Login or register to post comments

The confusing thing is that article assumes you know what you are doing!!! Duh! The phones are looking for the image files in a specific directory already. This location does not exist and you can not place the files anywhere else. You have to manually create the directories mentioned above (last post) before this will work... to do it, it is just like DOS, in the router type... mkdir Desktops, cd Desktops, mkdir 320x212x12, cd 320x212x12 etc. Once this is done copy the image files and List.xml to the FLASH:/Desktops/320x212x12 directory. copy tftp flash:/Desktops/320x212x12/List.xml copy tftp flash:/Desktops/320x212x12/IMAGE1.PNG copy tftp flash:/Desktops/320x212x12/IMAGE2.PNG Also make sure you set up TFTP Server (your router) to give the phones the files!!! Do this by typing the following: tftp-server:Desktops/320x212x12/List.xml tftp-server:Desktops/320x212x12/IMAGE1.PNG tftp-server:Desktops/320x212x12/IMAGE2.PNG This should help and work!

Can anyone provide me with the TFTP commands they refer to in that tech note? Thanks Login or register to post comments

Here are the things i noticed: They give you a sample of what to put in the List.xml file, but you'll notice its wrapped. not sure if it matters or not, but i made sure to put the 'image item' all on one line. So the whole document is only 3 lines. Also, i had to manually create the directories in flash. i.e. cd flash: mkdir Desktops cd Desktops mkdir 320x212x12 then the 'copy tftp flash:Desktops/320x212x12/' would work.

I just hope there was an option to make it as a default background image :) Login or register to post comments

They have an example List.xml file that you can cut and pasted into notepad. Then just save it as List.xml and copy it to your UC520. Be cautious when saving and referencing the file though as it is VERY case sensitive. Good question though. I'm adding it to our UC520 Configuration guide at http://www.uc500.com/uc500 Login or register to post comments
