Thanks Brian, was going to jump in but hesitated ;) Don’t think I’m breaking any NDA’s here as this is just a general impression based on dialog on this topic, there is absolutely nothing official here and I can’t go into detail unfortunately.
I get the impression that background support may get dropped or more limited in the future. The recent addition of backgrounds to the KEM has caused more challenges than benefit in it’s current implementation. This would imply that Cisco will have to do something to update/resolve this, backtrack, or something new/different. Personally I would love Cisco to fully embrace background/ringtones (i.e. the SetBackground XML object etc.). We see hundreds of clients that use custom backgrounds, it’s a great capability that is mostly an afterthought at times. I would encourage anyone with customers leveraging the custom backgrounds on Cisco phones to provide feedback to Cisco asking for official API support for SetBackground/SetRingtone One thing I was really pleased about was Cisco fixing the SetBackground bug on the latest 88xx firmware, but would be ideal if this was an official API.

Adding Stephen Welsh as well since he's pretty familiar with these phone APIs.

You're seeing the same thing I saw in that it's only supporting the non-wideband ringtones. Wideband ringtones don't have any size limitations I've found and also don't need to be divisible by 240. I downloaded the wideband ringtones from CUCM and confirmed their sizes/samples and such to confirm that. I can make a very long/sizable wideband ringtone, put it in the RingList-wb.xml file and upload it to TFTP and it works fine. Seems like the limitation is just around the SetRingTone command only working with legacy ringtone parameters.

Perhaps my successes will help you move the needle a little further?

It seems like SetRingTone was just never updated to allow for wideband ringtones.

They both work but RingTone may not have been updated to support wideband files. I've got the ringtone on CUCM now as well using the file settings in that blog but it's playing too fast. Anyone know if the sample rate needs to be changed from 8000 Hz or any other changes for wideband?

Have you already seen this info? http://usecallmanager.nz/ring-list-xml.html Interestingly, this information doesn't seem to be present in the normal Phone API guide. Is this hidden information, or just documented elsewhere?

It doesn't seem to like the file size for me even though my files are smaller than the default wideband ringtones.
