    Beocom 5 "chrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" noise then dead line

    I have recently had my Beocom 5 upgraded to the latest version of the software to resolve a number of problems including getting a loud static noise (sounds like "chrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ") and then the line dropping dead.  The problem has reared its ugly head again; anybody else had this or worked out how to stop it?

    I thought maybe trying to return the phone and getting a Beocom 6000 would probably stop it!!

    Thanks

    Dan

    WHAT SW VERSION IS YOUR HANDSET RUNNING ? I KNOW THEY HAVE RELEASED NEWER SW AGAIN VERSION 2.00.

     

    PRESS 9HASH9HASH9* INT AND SELECT SW VERSION AND IT WILL TELL YOU.

    THE BEOCOM 5 IS AN EXCELLENT HANDSET.

    Thanks, I'll have to check when I get home later.  Off the top of my head I think it was 1.8 something.

    Handset version 1.70

    Base version 2.50

    So looks as though it could do with an upgrade again.

    Thanks

    I wouldn't bother Dan!! I have just had update 1.9 and now the phone will not pick up the phone book from the base. It has been back twice and just received it back yesterday. The problem still exists.

      I have never know a product have so many many sw issues it is a joke for such an expensive product!!

    Thanks for the warning JC, I may as well try again with the new version - it won't make much difference, I still use my 6000 with the earset for work - the 5 is mainly used if  the phone rings and I happen to be near it or to change the volume on the TV.

    It makes a very pretty paper weight!!

     

    G - a few genuine questions: when did you buy your phone - do you have the speaker base - does it all work fine for you?

    The "current" latest software for the BeoCom5 is 2.0

    This cures faults in the software 1.9 previously released.

    Worth taking it back to your dealer to have it updated again.
