Cool!  They finally released that version out of beta.

Have you tried to use the free lab edition?  Their website doesn't designate if that feature is limited to their more expensive versions ($3499 – ouch!) or not.

Aside from a factory reset, you could try deleting the ITL file off the phone.  Yes, it is still a manual process, but it isn't as time consuming as a factory reset (process below).

I spoke with a TAC engineer last month about this.  It has been identified as a bug and will be resolved in a future release. Unfortunately, I can't locate the bug ID for it.  I will email him and see if I can get a response.

Steps to delete ITL file:
1. Select Settings
2. Select Security Configuration (4)
3. Select Trust List (5)
4. Press * * # (Padlock in upper righthand corner will unlock)
5. Select ITL File (2)
6. Select More
7. Select Erase
8. Phone will display "Erasing CTL and ITL files" and reset
9. Phone will optionally upgrade firmware

Ok.

Any idea's on how this happened?  I'm very interested in not repeating this experience.

We added the latest devicepack, the Cius 9-2-3.cop file, and then rebooted all servers in our cluster.

Since the latest devicepack included 9-2-1 for our phones, all our phones updated.    At this point, I have no idea how many phones are affected, but I have reports from nearly all of my sites, so it must be a significant number.

No settings where changed on the PUB/SUB's other than the addition of the the two .cop files.   I find it very disheartening/disturbing that such a minor *normal* maintenance item is going to cost me the amount of hours it's going to take to fix this.

Other than buying 3rd party software (Thanks Steve!), Cisco needs to put some serious thought in a way to fix this.  I'm not the first sad story involving this *Feature*.  I know I won't be the last.  Touching every single phone in my environment (Because how else can you verify if it's failing or not) is not really a solution.  We have sites in other states, and most of our operation is remote support.

Is factory default the only Cisco answer?

I've seen mention of TVs failure on the logs. What impact would that be?

I'm having a weird problem with our 7900's (7941/7945 7961/7965)
The Corporate Directory won't work on some of the phones.   (We've eliminated everything but the phone's themselves, I actually have two phones, on the same subnet, one exhibits behavior, one doesn't)

It says "requesting...." then eventually says Host does not respond.

We finally decided to try downgrading the phone back to 9.1.1 SR1s.

The phones that don't display the corporate directory, they also don't downgrade.

I've Reset/Restarted from CM
I've done the **#** from the keypad
I've unplugged the phone, and plugged it back in.
I've unplugged the phone, waited 5 minutes, and plugged it back in.   Doesn't downgrade.

I tried a factory reset, (# key, then 123456789*0#) and the phone will then download the correct version.  (I guess it has to at this point)

(And the corporate directory started working again.)

Idea's besides visiting every phone?
