Version 11 introduces myPBX for Android, an Android app that provides similar features than the desktop phones IP222 and IP232 in the WLAN via H.323.

Requirements

PBX

  • myPBX license (enabled at the user object)
  • myPBX for Android may be used without license to register at a SIP provider. In this case not all features are available.

Smartphone

  • Any smartphone running Android 4.1 or higher for best performance but interoperability with earlier Android versions is supported.

Installation

On the browser of your smartphone locate the file mypbx.apk from the download link published by innovaphone. The download should start and once finished install the app by click on the mypbx.apk in the status window. It requires that installation of non-market applications is enabled in the security settings of the smartphone.

Start the myPBX for Android app and enter the credentials for registration on your PBX in the setup screen.

Configuration via WEB browser

For configuration via WEB browser determine the IP address that has been assigned to the smartphone in the WLAN. It's shown on the setup screen of the app and in the WLAN settings. Access http on port 10006 or https on port 10007 from the browser of your PC:

http://xx.xx.xx.xx:10006
https://xx.xx.xx.xx:10007

To log in to the configuration enter

User name: admin
Password: mypbx

Settings

Update

Install the new version via WEB browser on the smartphone from the link published by innovaphone or via WEB interface Maintenance/Upload/Firmware from a PC.

Known limitations

Known issues

  • Some Android smartphones do not properly support roaming. In this case an active call is likely dropped if the device is moved and needs to connect to another WLAN access point. Please see this discussion in the internet WIFI roaming not working.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=12649
  • Due to a limitation in the Android IP stack it's not possible to maintain more than one active H.323 registration to the same gateway / IP address using the default port 1719. As a workaround configure an alternative port at the PBX:
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/!config change H323 /ras-port-alt 10008
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/!config write
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/!reset

Configure myPBX for Android to use this port:

http://xx.xx.xx.xx/!config change H323 /ras-port 10008
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/!config write
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/!reset
