Phone volume turns off w/ vibraswitch - any alternatives? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I've searched around and haven't had much luck. I use vibraswitch mapped to my PTT button to switch between vibrate and sound, but sometimes (especially when I'm on the phone and use it), the phone will volume will turn off (speaker w/ x, not on and not vibrate) instead of either switching the volume on or to vibrate. I've missed some calls because of this.
Somebody in a post here said that if you hold down the button u mapped it to for a second it will do this, but this doesn't seem to be the case. If this has been answered before I'm sorry, hopefully somebody can point me in the right direction!

The only thing about this program is that the phone doesn't vibrate when you toggle between the settings. I change the volume in my pocket a lot so I rely on the vibrates to let me know when I switch.

speaker on - remap button?

Hi,
I've searched for a while for something like this, but can't seem to find anything. I'm looking for a way to remap either a softkey or any of the 6 buttons to turn on speakerphone, instead of having to use the often clumsy touchscreen to turn speaker on. Is there anyway to do this? It seems like remapping one of the keys would be easy, but I suppose I would need an app like the switch-to-vibrate, or alt-tab prgms to remap the key to? Anyone know of anything like that?
thanks in advance!

This is not the solution but this might help you.
I'm also searching some super button combination to activate speakerphone via button when incoming connection arrives. The only possibility I found is to pick up the phone normally and than press and hold green button.

vibrate turns off w/out reason?

the only change i've made to my tilt as of recent was that i added kaiser tweak. however, i've looked thru the xml & cant find anything that'd warrant my profile changing from vibrate to ring w/out myself doing so. I've been watching it for about 2 weeks now trying to discern the action i am taking to cause the change but can't put my finger on it.
so i apologize i'd liked to have known the origin for the change to give you more info. but this is basically all i know.
i typically keep my ringer on vibrate. for some reason it changes to the ring profile automatically and periodically throughout the day. the only change i've made prior to this issue is adding kaiser tweak and a trial for contra, however that has since been removed. oh, sorry, i did add phm regedit to the phone also, the only registry i changed was the PTT registry fix to add button 6, i changed them to voice dial and voice recorder for long & short push respectively.
pls help. thanks. stan
I never had this problem before I upgraded to AT&T's 6.1 ROM. They added the PTT button to be remapped, but single push only. I did the registry change to remap a push and hold to Vibra Switch.
The problem I have is my phone keeps going to silent. I have to tap the volume control on the top of the screen to change it back. I can't confirm this, but it seems to happen when use SPB Shell's Now Screen phone profile to change to vibrate, but does not happen if I push and hold the PTT button and use Vibra Switch.

then it's prolly by my having done the reg edit to add the ptt button for long & short press...makes sense...but i wonder why? i cant say that it has to do w/ when i push it either, bcuz by doing it it doesnt force it to change to ring from vibrate. but i dont use spb tho either.
edit: oh yeah...i do use a BT headset, but its sporadically used & not correlated to the automatic volume changes.
same issues
I am having problems as well with my sound options after i upgraded to 6.1. I have not made any modifications to the phone except for the 6.1 upgrade. It is also having the problem with the backlight turning on for a second every now and again.....
I have the same problem after using my bt headset. It goes to silent.
Any update on this issue? I just upgraded my Tilt to 6.1 and I notice that it will automatically turn the ringer off and I have to manually select the automatic ring profile again

How do I remove the vibration when turning vibration ON?

Every single time I want to use the phone in vibrate only I enable that and get an annoying vibration. Isn't there a way to turn ON vibration without having my Diamond to vibrate once and then shut up?
Thanks!
Anyone have an idea about this? It annoys the hell out of me
thank you!
I don't have this problem but it sounds like it could be caused by the HTC volume control. You could use the standard WM volume control instead, or use some sort of profile switcher to set the phone to vibrate mode.
Davey:
Are you saying that when you enable vibration mode your phone does not vibrate once just after vibration mode is turned on?

That's right. What method are you using to turn on vibration? The volume down button?

Hes not using the hardware volume buttons.
My phone does the same thing, what Davey is saying is that he uses the Windows Mobile program to switch his phone to vibrate.
I don't get how this is such a problem though...

Which program do you mean - the one in the settings tab in TF3D? I don't use TF3D or the HTC volume control and I don't have this behavior, ever.
My point is that there are plenty of other programs that are capable of switching vibrate on and off, the OP should look for one of those or write something in Mortscript.
I use the sound settings tab within TF3D mostly but I also hold down the bottom right button on the phone to enable vibration mode.
Can you give me a link to a better program for this?And can you simply disable the HTC volume controller?
Thanks for your time!

I use SPB Phone Suite to switch profiles automatically at night and during office hours. It's a great little program but it's not free and it's a lot more converient when you're not using TF3D so you can use the today plugin. I'm sure there are free alternatives here for the Diamond.
Please see this thread for disabling the HTC Volume Control:

App for locking volume buttons?

Yes, I constantly accidentally hit the volume buttons. Is there an app that can lock them, so they only work after I enable them in the app?
Really? My favorite thing about the phone is that the volume buttons work when the phone sleeps. That drives me insane about every other phone/mp3 player I've used.... having to dig the phone out of my pocket and wake it up just to adjust the volume.
How are you accidentally hitting the volume buttons? Just curious.
One thing I've been wanting to request is a way to make a long-press of the volume buttons be forward/back a track. That'd rule.

When I go from portrait to landscape, by the time I'm done, I see the volume change window on the screen. I don't even know if I hit the + or the -.

In-line buttons of the headphones make calls :(

Is there a way to fix the in-line buttons of the headphones you get with the Diamond2 to not start calling people?
They are very sensitive, and I had some unwanted calls to people while listening to some music...
I can't find anywhere to configure this (WinMo settings "buttons" and "input" screens have nothing). IS there a way to disable those buttons or, better yet, make them useful for things like volume control?
same problem here, everytime i go by bike i call someone hitting the button somehow.
I mange to call people accidentily while walking down the street,
It needs to be able to lock itself while playing music or you need to press a particular button to lock-unlock.
I have a Noreve flip case coming soon maybe this will help to stop this problem.

if its not the headphones causing your problem you can simply turn your defice off while playing musik. it will keep on playing.
but the buttons in the cord don't "lock" if you switch it off
which basically is my problem

TouchLockPro locks all buttons, including the in-line buttons of the head-phones.
This solution worked fine for me and my Touch Diamond 2.
