Solved: Re: Studio 50 Firmware Update via USB

five337 · ‎10-15-2020

Hello,

I am attempting to update over 100 Poly Studio 50s via USB. They are all in MS Teams mode.

If the Poly is on the screen the MS Teams welcome splash screen (the one where you press next 4 times), the Poly will recognize the USB update drive and update.

However if the Poly is waiting for a call, it will not recognize the USB drive.

Is this normal behavior ? If so, is there a quick workaround to get back to the MS Teams splash screen without switching to POLY mode and back to TEAMs ?

I'm trying to come up with a solution to update all these Polys as quickly as possible.

Thanks !

Hello @five337 ,

Try this with a Fat32 USB Stick:

Download a complete poly-video_swbundle-3.2.1-224090.tar.gz. Open the file poly-video_swbundle-3.2.1-224090.tar.gz and you should end up with poly-video_swbundle-3.2.1-224090.tar
Within this simply copy the softwareupdate.cfg file, videocodec and touchctrl folders onto a USB stick and insert into G7500 or Studio X and use the navigation bars
The Web Interface should show:

Hello @five337 ,

Welcome to the Poly Community.

I am not sure I understand what you are asking? Is the device in a call or just sits idle on the Teams home?

Thanks for the quick reply !

I am unable to update when the device is idle at the Teams home screen.

The only success I've had using a USB drive to update the firmware is when the first Teams screen is displayed after changing the Poly to Teams.

I'm thinking that once Teams is logged in and is idle at the home screen - the poly isn't checking for updates via USB.

I've tried many Polys with the same results.

Our problem is trying to update 100+ of these. The only way we know is to logon via the web interface, switch to poly mode, reboot, select update via the web interface, wait, reboot, switch back to Teams, reboot, then re-logon to Teams. This can take 30mins per device.
