Does anyone know if it's possible to use custom images for the background?

Cheers
 
We have one J179 which has a changed picture.
I did not do it so i don't know what my collegae did.

BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!
 
There are six built-in backgrounds and six built-in screensavers for the J169/J179. Avaya posted a zip file on the support portal with ~ 140 images correctly sized for the screen.
 
The 140 pictures are actually 70 colour and the same 70 in greyscale. I don't know why they bothered as the colour image would just get converted to greyscale on the J169's automatically anyway!

Assuming R11, leave the 46xx to autogenerated and just modify the 46xxspecials.txt file with the settings you want. Upload the jpg's the the System/Primary folder and then use Monitor to check that HTTP GET requests are being made by the phone for the files you specify (including the 46xxsetting/specials.txt files).

Be wary of the missing "" as it's sometimes not clear from the template 46xxsettings.txt file. Use my example above for correct settings entries.

Also, I know it's basic, but remember to remove the ## from the start of the line!

All sorted now, any ideas how to change the text colour as the logo has a lot of white
 
You can't (as was said earlier in the thread). I've seen it mentioned many times so hopefully its gotten onto the product development radar somewhere.

Stuck in a never ending cycle of file copying.
