Here is a list of my most used ones:
Account 1
2) Check SIP User ID for Incoming INVITE: Yes
P258 = 1

(optional)
Validate Incoming Messages
P2306 = 1

Authenticate Incoming INVITE
P2346 = 1
(optional)

Screen saver
P2918 = 0 (off)

Weather
Enable weather update
P1402 = (1=on, 0=off)

use self code
P1405 = 0 (1=auto)
P1377 = (city, State Country)

Allow Auto Answer by Call-Info. (this allows for intercom calls)
P298 = 1

Currency off
Enable Currency update. 0 - No, 1 - Yes
P1404 = 0

Direct IP- disable to get off main screen
Disable Direct IP Call. 0 - No, 1 - Yes
P1310 = 1

Idle backround light. Default is 60(set to 100 so there isn't a flicker)
P335 = 100

Use Long Label. 0 - No, 1 - Yes
P8346 = 1

Bypass Dial Plan Through Call History and Directories. 0 - No, 1 - Yes
P6758 = 1

change ringtones for transfers
P1488 = xxxx(number of digits your extensions are)
P1489 = (1-3, pick the one you prefer)

--------
This is what I do

This assumes that transfers show the CID from the person transferring and that incoming calls have normal CID

I add this to my list of PCodes that I implement for people that want it:

change ringtones for transfers
P1488 = xxxx(number of digits your extensions are)
P1489 = (1-3, pick the one you prefer)

This will keep regular calls ringing normally and transfers different.
A blind transfer will retain original caller ID in many cases and will not ring different
An assisted transfer will ring different every time.
