Hello TRN123,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

We do not disclose within this official Polycom community how to reset the Phones if the Admin Password is lost.

Many of our partners utilize these phones and offer services so we cannot publicly disclose the procedure to do so.

Please contact the seller of the phone.

We will remove any post replying to this that will publicly explain how to remove the password.

Best Regards

Hello TRN123,


a good starting point is usually to provide some information about the currently used software Version.

 

Older Versions, depending on the Browser used, may not update the Web Interface correctly.

 

In addition if a SIP Password was manually added via the Phone GUI it has a higher priority than the Web Interface password.

 

I suggest you upgrade the phone to the latest supported Version as described here:

 

Oct 7, 2011 Question: How can I setup my Phone / Provisioning / Download / Upgrade / Update / Downgrade Software?
Resolution: Please check => here <=

 

Then Factory reset it or do that before the upgrade and then follow this:

 

Oct 7, 2011 Question: Can I register or is my Polycom Phone compatible with a “XYZ” SIP Server?

Resolution: Please check => here <=

Hello TRN123,

there is no requirement to post or reply to multiple other post's with the same question.

 

The UCS 4.1.0 Software is for LYNC only and as you are running SIP you should be using the UCS 4.0.6.

 

Please downgrade your phone to UCS 4.0.6, then Factory default the phone as already advised in my other reply via:

 

Oct 10, 2011 Question: How can I reset / Factory default my Phones configuration?

Resolution: Please check => here <=

 

and then program your SIP credentials via:

 

Oct 7, 2011 Question: Can I register or is my Polycom Phone compatible with a “XYZ” SIP Server?

Resolution: Please check => here <=

 

Please refrain from opening more new post's or replying to other similar post's as I have provided you with all the answers you need.
