Polycom Recovery (Resolve a Formatted File System)

If you’ve ever pressed the wrong button trying to perform a factory reset on a Polycom phone and accidentally pressed “Format File System” instead. You’ll most likely know it can be time consuming to recover the unit if you don’t have a provisioning server set up for this.

Well, you’re in luck! (Hopefully)

You should be able to use our server to download the application back on to the unit. Below is a list of all the units that can be recovered via our server.

Just follow these easy steps:

1) Connect the phone to the network (and power supply if required).

2) The phone will power up and display “starting application, press cancel to interrupt”. You need to press the “cancel” button.

3) It should then display a new screen that displays three options. “Start”, “Setup”, “About”. Press the button for “Setup” and enter the password. (by default it is 456)

4) Then it will display “provisioning server” > Press “Select” and set the “Server” type to “HTTP” > Scroll down to “Server Address” and press “Edit” and enter the following: polycom.provu.co.uk/fw/recovery/

5) Then Press “Exit” and then “Exit” again and select “Save and Reboot”.

6) Wait for the phone to reboot and contact our servers, if successful it should say something similar to “Updating XXXX-XXXXX-XXX.sip.ld, please wait”. Where X are numbers.

7) Leave the phone to download the application and wait until it boots up to the default Idle screen.

Important Note: Remember to upgrade the firmware version of the unit to the latest once the recovery has been completed. We can’t guarantee the firmware on the recovery server will be the latest.

Why choose Sennheiser?

1) Quality design
For more than 70 years Sennheiser has been producing the highest quality products across all areas of sound recording, transmission and reproduction. This expertise has enabled them to create a wide range of high quality business headsets all of which are designed with the following features in mind:
1: Sound quality
2: Quality build & design
3: User focus (designed for long use and comfort with hearing protection etc)

2) Channel focused
Sennheiser’s route to market is via the Channel, which means pricing remains competitive. Products aren’t sold on websites like eBay or Amazon where for other brands pricing is often much lower than the RRP and makes it difficult for value added resellers to compete with pricing.

3) Reduced competition
Where other headset brands are sold through lots of resellers, Sennheiser has a more selective approach. Through their partner programme, Sennheiser ensure their resellers are knowledgeable and are able to support their products, this allows resellers to supply a more unique and premium product range to the market.

4) Robust and reliable
The exceptional build quality offers the lowest failure ratio among all the headset brands with less than 1% return rate, helping to maintain customer satisfaction.

5) Best-in-class warranty
Sennheiser’s return policy is also best-in-class, all products come with a 2 years (or 3 with the Century series) warranty with 24 hour replacement. The replacement units are brand new and come with the full warranty! Simply raise an RMA and we will sort out the rest.
