Am I missing something obvious about the new ringtone feature? The 4.68 firmware updates as usual from my TFTP server, the new version shows up in the phone's web page, but the ring tones, while present on the server and referenced on the web page, all show a version of 0.0.0.0, and all functionality regarding them is disabled. Are we maybe jumping the gun here a little bit or is there something special about getting them to load?
Grandstream v1.0.4.68 firmware
not like the ringtones (piano). It'd be great if there was a way to upload own ringtones but I can not
seem to be able to find out how to edit the files.
That has not been my experience. I do indeed get the option to associate each ring tone with a given caller ID (which in my estimation is a really stupid implementation anyway - the real value would be in associating each line on the 2 line GS with a different ring tone. The caller ID already tells you who is calling). However, I can put anything I want into the text boxes and nothing happens - I always get the "system ring tone". And, what are those stupid little radio boxes for. No matter which one I check, when the screen refreshes it defaults back to the System Ring Tone. Here's what they look like (the "o"'s are supposed to be radio boxes):
o System Ring Tone o Custom Ring tone 1, used if incoming caller ID is (Text Box) o Custom Ring tone 2, etc.
What's this supposed to mean? It implies that if I select one of the custom ring tones, then the phone will ring on the matching CID, otherwise, it won't ring at all! This feature really needs work. I hope it doesn't wind up like the useless Daylight Savings Time option, which you may have noticed does not pay any attention to the date so you have to log into each and every phone and change the option anyway (please, correct me if this has been fixed). Why bother? I can just as easily change the time zone and get the same effect. GS is obviously targeting their phones for the consumer market where a customer has 1, maybe 2 phones and this kind of thing is irrelevant. The whole concept of their overpriced "provisioning system" is rather a funny joke in this context, and a rather pretentious one at that.
