I'm running the stock ROM for the AT&T Tilt and one thing I noticed as soon as I got the phone was that it would vibrate when someone picked up my call. I had an 8125 running WM6 so I was pretty familiar with all of the notification/alarm settings and had not ever seen this one. Sure enough I couldn't find that anywhere in Sounds/Notifications. After a little while it stopped doing it, but now it seems to do it off and on. It did it last night but I don't think it did it for all of the phone calls I made last night. I did a soft reset earlier yesterday some time I believe. It's quite annoying for the phone to vibrate when it's up against your head.
Any ideas what is causing this? I don't have any crazy programs installed, but even if I did it was doing this before I installed anything.
How about hard reset? See that fix the problem. I guess some program might be causing it.
PhoneAlarm for eg has an option to enable vibration when an outgoing call is connected, are you using it? If not, then check other programs for similar settings, even if it's programs in no way related to it
By chance, do you have Inesoft installed?
HKCU\Software\Inesoft\PIM\Settings VibroConnect = 0 (No vibrate on connect)

I am running PhoneAlarm and in the Adv. tab it was indeed checked! Thank you for this, I looked in the profile settings for Home and Work but saw nothing.
If this is an option somewhere else on the phone I'm not sure but it was definitely in the PhoneAlarm.
Thank you for the help!
Sorry to bring up a dead topic. But I'm having the same problem and I have none of the above mentioned programs D:

I have PocketMax Redial that has a setting to do that.
TNT PRO ROM I have that ROM. I don't see PocketMax Redial anywhere.

Just looking at the first post of that thread I would say it's the Registry_Enable_sounds_on_call setting that does it. You need to ask on that thread.
Wow. I can't believe that I didn't see that.Thank you.

I would like my Tilt to automatically lock itself when I put it in stand by. I tried iLock and it worked pretty well, however, it would sometimes not come out of lock fully when I received a fall call and cause the phone to lag. I also tried automatic locker that comes with BatteryStatus plug in, but when I get a call, I can pick it up, but then I cannot do anything during the call until I unlock it which is super annoying.
So I am looking for something that will put my phone to lock when I press the power button, and then unlock itself when there is a phone call.
Anyone knows any app that can help me?

BatteryStatus will exactly that. Originally this was developed for the Prophet and also provided overclocking of the OMAP CPU in the Prophet. Last time I tried it, on a Hermes it was working fine if I left the overclocking stuff disabled. Since then I see that Mr Chi-Tai Dang has removed any references to the Prophet and XDA Neo from his description of the application, and indeed the version history does now also mention Samsung CPUs, so it should also be safe to run it on the Kaiser.
Note: I recall seeing it here that the overclocking functions in BatteryStatus should be OFF on the Kaiser to avoid battery drain and overheating.

yup I saw that and it does what I need.. however, there is a problem
When it locks, and I get a call, I can answer the call. Then, if I want to end the call or use any options during the call, I have to unlock the phone which is annoying.
I remember using this on my old JAMin and had no issues taking calls. But it caused serious problems when trying to use Spb Backup with automatic nightly backup. Spb Backup would do a soft reset after completing the backup and this would make the phone hang.

That is what I would do. Maybe OP is asking something that he is never going to find or him have to do the reg tweak himself.
I have not tested on my Tilt, but This is what happen on my MDA.
I locked my phone and put it into standby, I receive a call and I was able to use note to write stuff and record the conversation(without unlock the phone). The phone will lock itself after the phone call. Is this what you are looking for?
The answer is on the today's menu.....
It did work on WM5, Im not sure if is the same on WM6.
p.s. I really find point less by locking up the phone because stand by does the trick. Unless you password protect your phone and that is different story.
lock
another way to lock your phone is it use Vijay's little baby It uses the built in lock that is provided within the O.S. however you DONT need to have the today plugin enabled for it to work....
www.vijay555.com
On my old C500, I had found a program that automatically locked the device after a user configurable time - much more useful than manually locking as you didn't have to remember to do it. And IIRC it didn't cause issues with calls. Obviously this prog (even if I could find it again!) wouldn't work with the Kaiser, but surely something similar could be done?
this option has also gsmart i128. you will set time for how long time device has to lock automaticaly. very useful function..

And this helps how?
Anyone find anything yet? Specifically for wm6.1
Thanks!
Yes I have gone to Settings->Sounds & Notifications-> Notifications tab-> Messaging: New text message. After setting that to vibrate I have soft reset many times to no avail. Is there any kind of reg edit for this? I have searched for days on this topic and noone seems to have this problem. Is there any hope?
I just did a search and it appears there are many threads similar to this one. Try a search and see if any of the other threads have your answer.
Do you mind sharing a link? Because I'm having no luck.
i've not personally searched properly, but i'm guessing that Grizzley might recomend looking here
If you're problem isn't covered by a few google searches within XDA Devs, add a few more bits on info (rom, installed cabs, did it ever, when did it stop, etc etc etc)
If it did, and now doesn't, try soft resets - if no good try removing installed cabs (and change tone, why not! just use a default one for now)
If you still cant fix it, try a hard reset (see wiki for how) and remember to backup first. if you still dont get a vibrate.... maybe you have a hardware fault... does it vibrate on phone calls? have you installed a custom rom (ffs check the entire applicable thread if you have) if so, try a different one... or a stock one.
Searching is a good start - and saying you have is better still. But there really isn't enough info to help yet (yes, silly sh*t can mess it up, if my sd card gets removed & replaced my phone decides that my txts are now silent - with no ring or vibrate - even tho the audio file is on the device.... go figure!)
Ok I tried everything....even installed new apps to help with it....nothing. And yes it does vibrate on phone calls. So I decided to hard reset. NOTHING. Just calls. Gah, it worked for a little while when my phone was brand new, and I havent even flashed a new rom. ?????

Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Sounds Tab -> Make sure the programs check box is checked and then check the notifications check box as well
I had the same problem too, until I looked through everything.
Hope this helps.
Do you have any programs such as phonealarm or spb phone suite installed? It could be as simple as changing the settings in one of them to vibrate for sms.

My Tilt has the same problem with emails. It will vibrate when getting a call, but not when receiving emails. I checked all the Notifications settings and made sure that Vibrate is checked but to no avail. Not having it vibrate for emails is a major bummer for me.
This is my first time using this site and it's great! I'm sorry for any stupid questions I ask that may have been answered somewhere else already. I have the ATT Tilt/HTC Kaiser 8925 and love it...recently the ringer randomly switches to vibrate. It does it sometimes when I'm using the calendar/appointments and sometimes when I haven't even touched it. I've seen tons of posts on HTC Home versions that affect it but I found (then lost) a thread that said something about about a Registry Edit you could to to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated or any other thoughts that may help fix this. I keep missing calls and it's driving me crazy!! Thanks so much!
i haven't searched yet, but mine will switch to any level, i keep it on vibrate while at work(Kohl's) and today it switched to loud while in my pocket and i didn't realize it till my VC started to read an extremely long text in front of my boss. fortunately he thought it was the coolest thing ever but he said it will never happen again or i'm fired(ass hole) but yeah i will post what i find when i search later

Thanks so much for your help! Yeah, this is driving me crazy..pretty much every time I'm using the calendar/appointment fucntion, it switches automoatically to vibrate from ring and vibrate. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!!!
Are you using a stock ROM?
Unless people have had the exact same problem, it's going to be hard to help you without more info on what software is on your device.
If it does happen to be a random occurrence, a hard reset usually fixes it.
i have a similar problem with my tilt
i have noticed this hapening on my tilt which is running duttys latest rom. its only been happening in the last fed weeks.
ive also noticed that sometimes the phone will ring for a couple of seconds then go into vibrate mode as well.
i found my problem to be the settings in spb phone suite. if you have any profiles set etc if you change the system settings spb phone suite will automatically change them back after like 10-20 minutes. hope this is a help to some people. but i was about to go crazy till i sat and stared long and hard at my phone and realized what could also be the problem. i no longer have the issue!
i think this happens when your profile is set to automatic... it takes your status from your calender (if you have set it to busy in some meeting) it will switch to vibrate and if there is nothing for you in the calender it switches to the normal mode.....
I had the problem, then I flashed to L26 v6 and no more problems.

*Dumb question, but how and where do you SET your PROFILE? There's tons of options on the phone, but I don't know of anywhere to change something that says profile from automatic to something else? Any info. on that would be great and I'll try your solution. I'd rather not do a hard reset if I can help it. Thanks!
Having the same issue. Saw this post:

Looks like this might be due to HTC Home. It appears there is an update / fix:

Recently whenever I turn my Kaiser on from standby it comes on with the keylock on. I don't think I changed anything to make it do this, and can't see how to stop it - so it comes on unlocked.
Can anyone help? I assume there's a registry setting somewhere, as the control panel doesn't seem to help.
Thanks

did u try settings/personal/lock ?
Yes, that's all off/unchecked. When I turn the phone on I have to press the left soft button, which says unlock, then an on screen button saying unlock. That's what I'm trying to stop happening.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I've tried turning it off and on, and soft resetting the phone, and it doesn't make any difference. THe other thing I've noticed is that when I finish a phone call the phone locks as well.

Try to search for it here on xda via the search function, I am prety sure that it is solved somewhere here.
Hope u will find it. Need to go.
I've tried searching before posting, but didn't find anything to help. It's such a simple thing and I can't believe no-one knows what to do.
Any one else got an idea?

ur welcome,always happy to help.
Arrgh! On closer inspection when my phone is connected to the PC via usb the lock doesn't come on. When it's not connected it still does on turn on or at the end of calls. This is getting really irritating!
Any more ideas anyone? Please?
Last week I updated my x1 to WinMo 6.5. Okay, so no problems, nothing really as a big deal. And then just last night my speaker/mic stopped working almost all together.
People can hear me, very faintly, if I yell at the top of my lungs.
Now I doubt it's 6.5 doing this, but just letting everyone know that it's there.
Any solutions? It's not call volume or anything like that, I've turned every volume knob up to the max and still no good.
Reflashing back to WM 6.1 is free and will help confirm whether it is a hardware or software problem.
Yeah, I guess I'll probably try that, it's sort of what I was thinking too.
Before reflashing, try a hard reset. (since you're going to lose data anyway from the reflash)
It might be a 3rd party app that's causing the problem.
Now, I just started getting into this whole "scene" here if you will . So how exactly do I hard reset?
And could anybody give a link to a page to downgrade?

Easiest way is 'Start > Settings > System' then 'Clear Storage' it'll be like it was whne you pulled it out of the box. You'll lose your contacts, messages, apps anything else you've done it it since 1st turning it on.
Back-up what you want to keep 1st.
Oops, I'm wrong, you installed 6.5 on it. Sorry.
So, I downgraded it back. Speaker still does not work, and now the screen goes blank when I slide it up. Any thoughts?
I had the problem that when I slide screen up the screen goes off. I sent back to sony and the replacement they sent is also broken! Now no one can her me when i talk. I tried to record a soundclip and its just fuzz.
