Problems with synchronizing speed dial buttons between Yealink MP56 E2 and Yealink EXP50

Hello everyone,

I have the following problem. We have several Yealink MP56 E2 Teams phones with connected Yealink EXP50 key extensions. Unfortunately, for about half a year now, the synchronization of speed dial keys between the phone and the key extension has only been possible to a limited extent.

Specifically, you can create contacts on the phone and add them to speed dial via the phone. However, in 99 out of 100 cases, this is not synchronized. The same applies to deleting contacts. What's strange is that the deleted contact is not actually deleted from the phone itself and reappears after 2 seconds.

I had already read that this error has occurred from time to time in recent years. Unfortunately, there has been no noticeable improvement in the last six months.

I have already tried the following:
Resetting the phone, rebooting after changes, disconnecting the connection between MP56 E2 and EXP50, logging back into the phone, updating the phone's firmware and the phone's Teams app.

Unfortunately, none of this has been successful. Does anyone else have any ideas or has Microsoft made an official statement that there are problems here?

    1. Update Firmware

    You can go to the Yealink Device Management Platform (YDMP) or Teams Admin Center.

    Check Yealink Firmware Portal

    Minimum recommended version:

    MP56 Teams edition: 122.15.0.x or later

    EXP50 firmware: matching expansion version

     


    2. Re-Sync Teams Account

    Sign out of Teams on the phone.

    Reboot the phone.

    Sign back in using your Microsoft 365 account.

    Wait a few minutes to allow Teams cloud sync to rebuild your contact cache.


    3. Rebuild Speed Dial Manually

    If automatic sync fails, manually set up the speed dials again after updating the firmware:

    On the Teams phone:
    Settings → Calls → Speed dial → Add contacts manually

    Verify the changes also appear on the EXP50 module.


    4. Check Microsoft Admin Center

    If you are an IT admin:

    Go to Teams Admin Center → Devices → Phones → [Device Name] → Health and Logs

    Check for any synchronization or contact sync errors.


    5. Contact Microsoft / Yealink Support

    If it persists, contact:

    Microsoft Support: report through Teams Admin Center.

    Yealink Support: share logs; they can confirm if a patch is coming for your firmware build.
