I wonder how these really compare to the Sennheiser ones?

What does it do when you turn it on? A suggestion I saw once was to lay it flat on something metal, like a fridge, overnight. It can help ground it. Also, clean the contacts with some rubbing alcohol and a q-tip. I've seen where those start to get dirty or have some corrosion build-up, and that prevents it from connecting properly.

Ok, I resolved this problem by reverting back to 29.73.0.50. As soon as the phone finished booting with the 29.73.0.50 firmware, I heard the CS540 base click active. I pushed the button on the headset to deactivate it and I knew it was going to work before i even picked it up to test.

This does not explain why the EHS previously worked with 29.80.0.60.

After confirming everything working correctly, I upgraded to 29.80.0.60. The headset no longer worked correctly. I downgraded back to 29.73.0.50 and it worked correctly again.

This is a problem with the new firmware for the phone and obviously not a problem with the 3.16.0.0 EHS firmware.

Email sent to yealink support. Hopefully this will be resolved in future firmware.

Might want to correct your title. You got a Savi 720. The Savi 7xx products all have the same features but are different headset styles. I have the 730. Anyways, don't forget to install the Lync Smart Presence software, which is on Plantronics downloads page. Here is the link:

http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/smart-presence-windows

That will enable it so that if you are on a call on your deskphone, using your headset, you still show as "in a call" on Lync. Or your cell.

Corrected.

😄 Thank you. I'm just kind of CDO about that kind of stuff. 😛

From the pic, it just looks like an account. Being hacked would likely be completely different.

Yeah, which is what I figured too. There were probably 7-9 accounts total, at a rough guess, that were doing it, but a few more prolific than others.

The Yealink phones have an EHS that works with most headsets.

The little bit higher end ones do. The T40 series do. None of the T20s do though.

neat little dohicky... now - just how much for that wonderful bit of tech....

$150 - $300 depending on the model. Similar to Plantronics.

@ajstringham I think I know what I will buy with my new PC in a few months!

Seriously, you can't go wrong with these. These were a giveaway last year at Spiceworld Austin. @Nic has a set too, so he can attest, I'm sure, to their quality as well. They seriously do rock! They had a 3v3 LoL tournament of Spiceheads v. Spiceworks. Spiceheads got destroyed...didn't help that Sean was a very high level and Sarah was actually RANKED! @Nic nor I had ever played, although I'd seen people play a little bit once or twice. In the end, yeah...

The UC is built for mobile and PCs/Macs. The CS is the deskphone and mobile unit (you actually can use it with the PC too). Again, don't mix 'em up, lest ye be very disappointed.
