Disable 3CX Phonebook on Yealink T19P E2

[WGG]

In my hotel I use multiple T19P E2 phones for reception desk and in the offices. I want to use the 3cx phonebook for these phones. That is working correctly.

For the rooms I have the same models, but I don't want them to show the company 3cx phonebook.

I made a custome template for these phones and disabled all the key values to not show the phonebook. So far so good.
But whenever the hook is picked up the Yealink does come up with a "DIR" key and opens the remote phonebook.

How can I disable the remote phonebook in my custom template ?

You could try changing to

features.remote_phonebook.enable = 0

for now I reprovision the device.
Go into the web-admin page for the device
take out the URL for the 3cx remote phonebook.
That does the job. Only after a reboot or reprovision the setting is back and I need to go in to the device settings by hand again

This will change every 24 hours, So not the best solution. Custom template would be the way to go.

I did a few tests on a Yealink phone (different model, but I presume the same results) and I think this may work for you.

Add the following at the bottom of your custom template:

features.remote_phonebook.enable = 0​

remote_phonebook.data.1.url = %NULL%​

remote_phonebook.data.1.name = %NULL%​

FYI, a useful tip when making modifications for custom templates (at least for Yealink, I'm not sure for other devices): If your template has the same config item appearing more than once, the last entry wins. This allows you to place all your changes at the bottom of the file (before the "]]></deviceconfig>" line) instead of having to find them in specific sections as they will override any earlier references. It makes it easier to do comparisons when updating custom templates later.
