Hello eng_romeo,

welcome back to the Polycom Community.

The unit was purchased back in 2010 and without getting this back to Polycom we would be unable to diagnose.

 

It could be defective or if it has been running an older software version may had been exposed to an external party who modified the software.

 

Please work with your Polycom reseller to establish the root cause.

Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Thanks Steffen for your reply but we want to fix the problem , we want to know the reason of this problem in order to not repeat to another device , we have a big numbers of Polycom Devices , we have not support for many HDX devices from reseller in KSA and our administration in work want to replace all Polycom Devices to cisco devices which have a good support in KSA , so that we want to fix a problem as soon as possible .

 

Thanks.

Hello eng_romeo,

I am quite sure our reseller network in the United Arab Emirates is fine as I often work with the largest reseller there.

 

As mentioned in my original reply without getting this back to Polycom we would be unable to diagnose the root cause.

 

As an example I am unaware how these units are installed and temperature in your country could be an issue if the unit is used in an environment outside the specifications.

 

A few years ago there was also a security vulnerability discovered where access to the underlying linux os was gained and as a result the HDX would no longe fully boot. Not knowing what software version the unit was running prior to failing this could be possible as well.

 

We do make customers aware of these issue via our support page.

 

Stating all the above not having physical access to the unit will make troubleshooting impossible so please go ahead and contact your reseller FVC so they can assist you.

 

Looking at the history of the unit over the last 5 years there was never a support ticket logged with our Support teams.
