Blank screen when new text is received - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
I have this problem, when I get a text the phone rings if it's not set to silence, but if it is, the screen doesn't flash or turn up to indicate that an event is happening, I tried to look into Sound and Notifications, the Flash Ligh for [x minutes] tick box is greyed out.
Never happend to my TYTN II before...
any idea?
Also when a call comes in the phone takes a while to ring, while the caller had already heard 3-4 rings...

Any ideas people?

Disable screen when receiving sms/mms

When I receive a phone call, SMS or MMS the screen switch itself on and that’s not good when the phone is in my pocket. (I'll answer my calls via bluetooth)
Would it be possible to disable screen at least when receiving SMS/MMS?
Thanks.
This would be a good fix.
This is indeed an excellent idea. If someone could somehow develop something that allows the screen to come on to show you what is happening, but the screen stays insensitive to touch, that would save me a lot of headaches.
The "lock screen" feature almost does this, but not quite.
I'd like to third/forth this idea. I often find myself hanging up a call as I pull the phone out of my pocket, or launching random apps when a message arrives. Very irritating!
I would certainly agree to that too. I am forever calling random people while driving because of my phone being on my belt and then recieving an SMS

AFAIK message on screen will only prevent the message itself to be displayed automatically when you receve a message. Your screen will still be switched on and a lot of funny things happen when it's in your pocket.

The Phone Goes to Ringing Instead of Vibrating

Hi guys,
I have a strange problem with the TYTN II. I put it to vibration using the HTC home ant it is OK, vibrating when somebody calls. Then suddenly, without me changing anything, it starts ringing as if I changed it to "Normal" profile. When I look at the HTC home I see it still has the "Vibrate" profile selected. I have to press on the "Vibrate" again to make it go to vibration again.
This strange thing happens randomly (or at least I cannot find what causes it), sometimes when I have used the phone, and sometimes even when I haven't.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks.

Have you gone to Settings>Phone and set the Ring type to "vibrate and ring"?
You can also use Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications and set "Phone: Incoming call" to "Vibrate and ring"
Hope this helps
Yes, I have all the settings. I change between the "Vibrate" and "Normal" profiles when I am in meetings (vibrate only) or generally (normal, ring + vibrate). The problem is that when I set the vibrate profile, the phone automatically rings sometimes, with sound, which I don't want in a meeting.
reminders?
This problem has just started to appear on my Kaiser. It seems to show up after a reminder appears. I have turned off all sounds and reminders except calendar reminders but vibrate still gets changed to ringing. I have also used Kaiser Tweak to change the defaults.
I don't what triggered this but it seemed to start when I uninstalled FlexMail 4 and then installed Flexmail 2007 but that may be coincidence.
A real problem in meetings or in a hearing where an official can really get upset over a ringing phone.
I still don't have a solution. I don't use FlexMail (any version) so I don't think this is the problem. It could be the calendar but I have not found any connection yet.
Work around
This is by no means perfect but it will prevent embarassing moments. Try recording a "silent" ring tone and using that for your ringer. Then all you miss are phone calls. They, of course, go to voice mail.
I had a similar issue, however it was in reverse, by once choosing the automatic profile in the HTC home.
Basically the automatic feature remains active after selecting it once, so after the reminder, even if it doesn't have time if your next block of time happens to be "free" it will revert it back to ringing.
Unfortunately I never found a solution and now have a new Kaiser, which I have avoided selecting it since getting the phone.
bluetooth too
Yesterday while on a call using a handsfree bluetooth device, a calendar reminder popped up and my bluetooth connection was dropped simultaneously. The call was not dropped and I was able to turn on the handfree connection again using the menu.
Which has led me to search for these type of problems. I found a thread that addresses a way to turn off push mail notifications. I understand the same "fix" works with calendar notifications.

Here is a thread on notifications.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330872
I am now sure that the problem is connected with the calendar. It appears when I make some changes in an event (not always but in about 90% of the cases). I am synchronizing with Outlook and I think the problem appears when I change an event that was already synchronized. By "changing" I mean even dismissing the alarm when it goes off.
Any ideas what I could do?

Set to ring but vibrate

I think I'm going nuts. I am finding my Tilt to be in vibrate mode, but then I check the settings, and it is in fact set to ring. A soft reset and it rings.
Also, I have found that sometimes if I have the blue tooth on, but not synched to anything, I notice a call coming in, it not ringing, and I see the earphone icon at top of ringing screen. It thinks it is connected to a BT device.
Anyone else experienceing this?
you sure you dont have some kind of "sound profile" program running like phoneweaver?
While I have quite a bit of stuff installed, I haven't installed any that I expect or know is a sound profile.
I have SPB Pocket Plus and Mobile Shell; and HTC Today screen stuff.

[Sprint] Ring & Vibrate no longer sticks

Hi,
since the new ROM upgrade for Sprint Diamonds I have an annoying problem: In Sounds & Notifications I set my Phone to "Ring and Vibrate" on incoming call. Each time I do a soft reset, it sets itself back just "Ring".
It's bugging the heck out of me, since if I forget to set it again, I don't know someone is calling when it's in my pocket.
I looked at the registry and only found ways to make ring, then vibrate or visa-versa. But I need to to vibrate the whole time it rings.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks!
I too have the exact same problem... Any ideas yet?

MOD PLEASE DELETE incoming ring cuts off

I'll be darn if I can figure out what is going on here.
4.1.2, stock except for custom kernel brick bug prevention.
I've had this rom running since it was released (this is a note international, GBT via amazon, used in the states)
Never had an issue, but I've started to notice a couple missed calls. Today, I saw what was happening.
Incoming calls, the ringer only rings for maybe 1/2 second, phone continues to "ring" but you never hear
anything! It's like it has been silenced as if you quickly pressed a button. That's how it acts without bluetooth.
If I have my bluetooth (jawbone ERA) turned on, SOMETIMES, if the screen is off, it NEVER rings, on the speakerphone
I'm using to dial my Note, I hear it ring 2 times, then go directly to voicemail. Sometimes it does that, sometimes it does
not, otherwise, the phone ringtone plays for a split second, headset continues to ring normally. Screen shows the incoming
call, but no ringtone. I haven't tweaked, installed, updated anything to cause this. Just one day it started doing it.
I'm about to do a clear reset, but it's just a PITA to set it up. Device is going on 18 months old, first issue I've really had
with it other than a bad USB port or a worn battery.
Any clues?
edit: Found the issue...I use call control as a phone number blocker. In settings, I had on for blocked calls, "remove partial ring" turned on. Once that was turned off, everything started working.
