TomTom always starts with NO SOUND? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Does anyone's else experience this?
It starts with sound disabled, I go into preferences and switch sound on. It has no effect. Back into preferences, switch sound on and this time it works. Not a biggy, but a pain nonetheless!
Anyone?
Cheers,
FrankyG

Oh yes, I also had this bug in my previous p3600! You have to switch off the data connection before starting tomtom (click twice red button)

Ah, thats weird. I always have data connection active. Good to know there's a workaround anyhow....
Thanks.

TY - hate this damn bug.

I have the same issue... a pain.

Only on 6.030
my experience - this happens with version 6.030 on both 3600 and tytn II. no such problems with 6.21 or other versions.
But only 6.030 can see the post codes file, in other versions post codes are not available. :-(

SIMPLE FIX:
Roll the volume wheel and sound turns on.

I think it is by design... It is phone at the end of the day so when you start it the sound is off... in case you are talking to someone...

Yupe It works!

For those without a jog dial moving the d-pad left (or right for some) works well.

Annoying After-text noise

I'm having a problem with my XDA Stellar. O2 always displays your credit on screen after and call/text in the form of a network message. The thing is i can't find out if you can turn off the sound for these alerts. I've tried changing everything under "sounds and notifications" but it doesn't seem to be in there. The only way i can stop it making noise is to turn the sound off on the phone completely which means i then have to turn it back on before using something like tomtom.
So my question is, can this sound be turned off and if not can the alert be turned off altogether?
Thanks
Perhaps kaiser tweak will help.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333898
No, unfortunately as good as KaiserTweak is, it has nothing to help me.
Bump. Does anyone have any idea on what to do about this as it's becoming a serious problem
when the message comes in, which sound does it make?
What im trying to get at is maybe the phone is seeing it as a system even/warning which you can't change through the drop down list but you can disable. Try going to sounds and notifications and on the first page there untick "Events (warnings, system events)" and see if that stops them from making a sound
My wife had this with her 6230i - the solution was to phone O2 and ask them to turn off the notification at their end.

Yeah, thats what I did to disable text message sounds. It works. Settings>Sounds&Notifications>Notifications Tab.....and im sure you'll figure out the rest.
How is this a serious problem? Someone that has cancer has a serious problem.. Anyways, turning off the sent notification in the KaiserTweak didn't work for you? Maybe one of the registry gurus can figure it out.

It plays the "notify" sound. I can turn off literally everything in sounds and notifications including events and programs and it still makes a noise. the only way to stop it is to turn all sound off.

Yeah i think this is what its going to come down to. I thought it was worth asking first incase someone knew how to turn just the sound off.

The reason its becoming a problem is mainly down to TomTom. I havent yet bought an in-car holder as i'm waiting for one with a stereo audio jack, so when i use tomtom i rely on the sound as i cant actually see the screen. Yesterday (and many times before) i needed to use tomtom but i forgot the sound was off. So whilst driving i suddenly realised i didnt know where i was going and i wasnt being told. I'm sure you're aware its not very easy to turn the sound on without looking at the screen so i had to find somewhere to stop during rush hour. Not fun.
I have turned off sent notification but it isn't that thats causing the problem it's because O2 send a network alert telling you your credit everytime you've used some of it.
Thanks for all the responses. I think i'm going to give O2 a ring and ask them to turn it off. If anyone knows how to turn just the sound off though it would be really useful.
well, if its just a problem of you accidentally starting tomtom with no sound.....then i suggest you use tomtom starter
http://www.klaes.nl/
it will automatically change you volume to the max when you start tomtom
Hmmm that looks very interesting. Thanks i'll give it a go.

Built in lock from WM locks while in a call

Hello to all of you!
Happy new year first of all!
Since a few days i'm using the Built in lock from WM and the Phone Canvas posted here on the Diamond Thread. Previously I've used TouchLockPro, but somehow it didn't work properly for me...
Right now I have a problem with it, I've configured with Advanced Config Tool form Schaps a timeout to lock my device automatically so when I don't touch my device 30 sec or press the power button, It will lock...
But....also in a call or something, which is very annoying because to end the call I have to unlock first AND my phoneskin is gone as well.....
So summarised:
Does anybody know how to automatically lock my phone like it should do, except while in a call??
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards
Jeroen
p.s. mods, if this item has already been discussed, can you please erase this Thread then??

I dont use the built in lock from windows anymore (i used to have your problem). Instead i now use S2U2 (Scroll 2 Unlock) and this doesnt lock during a call. One of the best apps i have on the phone - and its freeware!

I'd rather stick to the standard lock app from WM, because S2U2 is quite big app to load into memory and for me it drains my battery quicker...(at least, that's my opinion)
Thanks anyway...I hope somebody else knows how to solve this.....

Hello,
Please can you clarify your problems? Does the phone always lock itself in a call? What do you mean your phone skin is gone? When did it go?

Hi Dave!
Well the problem is actually caused by ACT 3.2 from Schaps I think.....I've configured the keylock from Windows Mobile to lock itself automatically after a period of inactivity OR when I press the powerbutton to suspend the the device, and after that my phone is locked! But even WITHIN a call, my device will become locked with the specified timeout and will make my phoneskin dissapear and let it go back to the homescreen!
If I want to hang up then, I have to UNLOCK my device and then TAP on the phone icon which appears next to my Signal strength Icon....THAN the phoneskin will reappear and THEN I can hang up the call.....
Hope you'll know by now what I mean...
It's driving me crazy, because I really fancy the automatic lock........
Thanxx anyway

in the advanced config thing or diamond tweak theres an option for lock with "light sensor while in call" or something like that. disable it. and ur set. its annoying as hell, i accidentally played with that feature and it annoyed the crap outta me until i finally found what it was.
in diamond tweak, it should be in the first section of the thing, u dont need to even scroll. i forgot about advanced config cause i dont use it.
edit: option is called "light sensor" but the description talks about it for use during phone calls.

Hi Jeroen,
The problem is not caused by Schaps ACT because that just enables and disables WM features by changing the normal registry entries used by WM.
The problem is some combination of your ROM and your dialer skin not playing nicely with the auto-lock feature. Try removing the dialer skin to see if that helps. If it does help then there may be another, similar phone skin you can use instead.
Ok, I've done a bit more investigation into this issue. I don't use auto-lock normally so I've tried it out. I can confirm it locks during my calls too.
You have a least a couple of options -
1) Don't use auto-lock. You could lock the phone with the left soft key like I do.
2) Don't switch off the screen during a call. There are two settings in Schaps ACT to prevent the screen shutting of automatically and this version of the phone skin has the in-call locking curtain:

Hi Davey101
Thanks for your help in advance! I really appreciate it
I do use the Nosleep!.cab file to prevent my screen from going off during a call, so that would not be the cause....I think I just have to turn off the phoneskin, OR do it manually
Off course...I rather prefer to leave the auto-lock function active, but if it's not gonna work, I have to face it
Cheers mate!

How to stop Diamond from turning on by itself when there is a incoming Text message?

I just want the "ding dong", but let the diamond stay in stand by mode.
Only reason is when the phone is turned on, that the touch screen will do things with its own mind when it is in the pocket!
The latest one is 15 minutes long distance call to my home!
Mmmm...
Yes, you're quite right... this has always been a pain in the ass with WM devices. The new lock-screen on 6.5 has fixed this issue, but unfortunately for 6.1 we have to rely on third-party software to fix Microsofts' oversights!
Try S2U2, which is free, or Pocket Shield, which costs a few dollars, but is well worth it.
I don't know of any tweaks which will actually leave your device in stand-by, but these third-party solutions work well

Thank you. I just installed TouchLockPro last night. After all the settings, it works OK so far. I guess I will try TouchLockPro for a few days to see how it does.

[BUG] DamageControl 2.05

I would have added this to the thread, but it would get lost in the endless amount of posts that come per minute. Disabling SD Card Notifications does not disable them, enabling and disabling again does not disable it either. Even with the volume completely off when you plug in the phone to charge it notifies you via ringtone. Very annoying
If this is how you're doing it, maybe you should keep the first post update with verified bugs and there fixes (if there is one) as they are reported. This way damaged' thread will be less cluttered and people won't have to wade through hundreds of pages of posts to find something.
good idea but don't forget... SEARCH = WADE RELIEF
Mine works just fine. I dont get a ringtone when I plug my phone in and the volume is off...
Im sorry, but my trackball is still intermitent. I thought it was supposed to be fixed?
And my broswer hangs on the last leg, even though the page is fully loaded, I have to press stop.

Its light sensitive? Hm...didnt know that. Could very well be my issue, is there a way to turn it off? I liked in 1.5 how it came on by just moving it. Let me know my phone was responding and just....brought a sense of comfort I can never explain. I guess maybe being jealous over it whilst having the g1.
Another issue I am having is at the lock screen. Before this update if my phone was locked, you press the power key and then either swipe your screen down, or press menu to unlock. Now whenever I press menu, it unlocks but automatically pulls up the menu on the home screen. Not a huge issue and definitely not complaining, just wanted to let you know.
has anyone else had the issue where you answer an incoming call and there is no sound on your end or their end. and the only fix is to restart your phone?. it is very annoying. i found this in testing but it stopped. now its starting up again today
Bump
I know i annoy you all with my trackball b!tching, cause its no big deal to anyone else, but to me, I could live with all the original bugs if the trackball was constant.
Also, friendstream? I didnt see it in the rom, and cant find it, and idek if it works in damages latest release.
Total noob question, but the only reason im interested in friendstream is because, to be honest, idek what it IS. Link fb, ms, and twitter tkgether right?
I'm having trouble with VVM, when you call and vm answers it asks for the number your calling and the # and then says it doesn't recognize try again.......I tried google voice but it won't even go to VM at all......

Annoying 4 note notification sound

The sound is 4 progressively higher notes on a xylophone-like wooden or bamboo instrument. Usually plays on unlock, but also randomly throughout the day and night. My default notification sound is silence, so this might be tied to an app or the OS (MM 6.1). I just don't know what it is - other than loud and inconvenient. Any Ideas? This is driving me crazy and waking my wife at night. Thanks.
its an app, 100000%. now your job is to find out which one.
Hi and thanks for the confirmation Simms22. :good: I know. Kinda obvious.
I have gone through settings and turned off most radios thinking it could be tied to an app through BT, GPS, NFC, etc.; a successful connection or location fix. I have also gone through the various apps and checked their notification sound settings too. No dice. Whats worse is that I have gone through all my ringtones and notification sounds and can't find it.
It seems to be tied to the Google Now cards notifications, but if it is, I can't find it. I don't really want to turn those off but I guess that's next. Grrrr.

id still be guessing, but google doesnt have a xylophone-like wooden or bamboo instrument sound on the nexus 6, so i know its not a default sound.
Thanks for the info. Hope I described the sound well enough. I'm mostly deaf in one ear and can't hear out of the other. Misspent youth and all that.
I know the notifications and ringtones I've added. That leaves apps that have brought their own sounds with their install. So it's back to the haystack.
I think I'll let it percolate in the sub-conscience for a while. Besides, I'm way behind on a personal Tasker project. Thanks again. I'll update later with what I find out.

you can enable safe mode. that way you can check if its an app. long press the power button until you get the power off option. then long press on the power off until the safe mode option pops up. if that notification doesn't go off, then its an app. as on safe mode, all apps are disabled.
Flash another ROM. This happened to me on PureNex and when I switched to Chroma it went away.
Sometimes it actually happens once in a while. I'll hear the annoying "do dieu do doo" sound
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
I also have this problem. Has anybody found out the cause?
It started a few months ago and I ignored it, but now it is really annoying.
I put my phone into safe mode and it still happens. I assume this means it must be a preloaded app?
I installed a notification history app and nothing is listed when it happens!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
