Hi Guys
I am currently having problems with my new IP phone 7906 after doing factory reset and here is a video of it:

I used this command I found on the net:

Hold down

#

while plugging in the phone and keep holding it until the message waiting indicator (red light) starts blinking. Then

release # and type 123456789*0# in sequence.

I was trying to switch my phone to sip and it also dont want to take tftp setup either.
 
Now I have a bigger issue and I think I bricked this IP phone after trying to do this factory reset code: 3491672850*# But on my belkin router its showing getting ip address and I can ping it but there is no boot img or anything says cisco on it.

Is it bricked or not?
 
I don't know too much about voip stuff, but I would guess that you need a tftp server for the firmware.

The factory reset sequence is a way for a phone to clear flash and still upload to a valid firmware image. This is facilitated by the termxx.default.loads file, but requires that the image files listed in the termxx.default.loads file are available in TFTP for the phone to download.

also
You set the option 150 for tftp server on your dhcp server. Place a config file with the mac address (of the phone) in the file name at the root of the tftp server.
