621 and 626 changes username back from name to number (name) in the

615 changed username "Ronald office" to 615, although no change in
sip.conf
Did anybody else experienced that?

There is some code in asterisk which I'm not sure why it exists, that
will set the username in memory to the user value in the SIP Contact
header upon registration. While this isn't normally a big deal, if you
are using realtime, when a SIP UA registers, some things are written
back to the realtime database, username being one of them.
I am not sure if this is a bug or not, as I don't understand the thought
process behind allowing a sip ua to modify the username asterisk uses
based on a sip header when it registers.
I went into the code and removed the username as a field that got
written back to the realtime db upon registration and it fixed my problem.
DO NOT USE USERNAME!
That feild is really something used together with defaultIP when we have
*no* registration.
* When we have a registration, we use whatever the phone tells us in the
Contact: header, which is a SIP requirement. That is why we change it to
reflect the known contact, provided by the phone.
* We never change the device name of the phone, just the address we use
to communicate with the phone.
* This name is not used for authentication by a phone, it is not the
username you configure the phone with.
* In most cases, there is no need to use the "username=" option in
sip.conf for phones.
I will soon change this setting to "defaultuser" to make it even more
obvious that this is not anything you need to set. The phone name is
whatever you have between the square brackets in sip.conf, both for
users and peers.
I will check into the realtime code as well, to make sure we are
changing the proper field in the database.
