Hi,
I'm new to android (former WM 6.5) and I have a strange behavior on my Galaxy Tab with the "mute" profile.
Here it is:
The sound is on "mute" (ringer volume is off).
If someone call me and I do not answer (missed call), the sounds came back to normal mode.
This is annoying me, because I want to have the phone kept on "mute" after that.
Imagine how bad could be this situation in a business meeting, during a movie, or during the night: set the sounds on "mute", someone calls (the phone is not ringing at the first call) and then the sound is going back to normal - the next calls will ring loud !!!
Please help me to solve this annoying situation.
Regards,
Stefan
Personally, i have not experienced this in my tab, and I do receive calls while on mute, and the phone stays on mute after these calls. If I do get the same bug, i will come back to this thread.
As a temporary solution, change your ring tone to beep each time you have a meeting.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for reply. In the meantime I figured it out. It was the GO Contacts who changed the profile from mute to normal after a missed call. They updated the programm and now it is all in order.
This thread can be closed.
Stefan.

Hello,
Recently I have been noticing that my IIi appears to inform me of incoming calls rather late. When I wear my bluetooth headset I can hear the incoming call in my headset but it takes at least 5-7 seconds before the ringer on my phone starts ringing. By the time the ringer starts ringing to let me know of a phone call I have maybe 3-5 seconds to answer it before my voice mail picks up. Does anyone else experience this problem? Are there any solutions? It almost seems like the cpu just does not have the power to process the incoming call that quickly. Any help would be appreciated.
What headset are you using?
Does it have a delay without a headset?
On mine I get a delay with a headset that supports the handsfree profile (Jabra BT800) but not on a normal one, or without a headset.
My XDA2 did this also, but the XDA2 with WM2005 worked perfectly.
could be the time needed to find/load the ringtone ?
do you have caller id or ringtonex with different ringtones and/or pictures?
maybe loaded from memory card ?

I have the same problem with mine... I only get three rings to answer the phone - which can be pretty annoying!
I've not noticed whether having any form of headset makes a difference, though.
Ringing Delay
I upgaded to the latest version of software from 02 last week, since then I get what I can only describe as a "stutter" when the phone rings. I am also getting a lot of lost calls i.e the phone rings twice then says I have a missed call, but the people ringing me say that it goes to ansaphone ???

I have the same problems and the bluetooth flattens the battery in 4 hours. I used to have the XDA II with Sins cooked 2K3se and it was perfect, unfortunately I gave it to my son who won't give it back.
Hey, I have same problem, I got the latest ROM, and since then it got even worse. Does anybody knows how to fix the problem, modify ROM, or something, PLEase help.
Thank you.
the only solution i have to date is to change the answerphone delay, you can find your networks status codes here:

i changed mine to 30 secs to give me a better chance!
cheers
HI guys! I have a little problem on my wings: when I'm already on a call and someone calls me, I don't recevive any acoustic alert; I mean, the screen shows me that there is another incoming call but if I have the phone at my ear I can't see the screen. Is there a way to make the phone ring or vibrate or anything else that tells me that there is another call??
THX
Settings=>Phone=>Call Waiting. Make sure "Provide call waiting notifications" is checked and then go into Settings=>Accessibility and change your In-call alert volume to increase the tone.
Thanks. I found out that I had changed too many keys in the registry
Hi guys!
I've been reading and searching this forum for a few days and I can't find anything that is related to the problem I'm having right now with my Galaxy Tab.
As of right now, whenever I receive any phone call on my Tab, it automatically switches to silent mode (crossed speaker icon on notification bar). It drives me crazy as I can't hear the ringtone whenever someone calls me, even though it's not on silent mode at the first place. The weird thing is it automatically switches back to normal mode when the call ended.
I've been missing too many calls because I can't hear it ringing. I already pressed the power button and made sure the phone is not on silent mode, and tried calling the Tab using my home phone, and it switches to silent mode when the call arrives.
Anyone have a solution to this? Please help. I'm on wits end here!
Download audio manager to see what all the different volume levels are set too. Might be something funny going on
I have installed audiomanager and checked that none of the volume levels are zero or set to silent. This is really frustrating.
Is there any way to soft reset the Tab without losing all the installed apps and data?
I have different problem related to silent mode.
When I am in silent mode, all the notification sounds are off but then when I play games, the sound is on. I have to go into setting to set "media voume" to zero manually if i want to play game wihtout sound.
This is kinda inconvient, I suppose silent mode mean silent everything.
It's kind of funny that on a number of the Droid ROM forums people are asking for this as a *feature* to avoid the annoying vibration that incoming messages and other notifications make when on a call.

I have the same problem. All the volume controls are high but ringer don't sound. any idea?
Be sure to check ALL the settings in ALL the settings and apps that pertain to anything that has sound.
This includes all the games, alarm clocks, video recorders, video players, music players, radios, etc. I had a similar problem, and this approach seemed to help.

I have had my Z3c about 6 weeks (US- AT&T) and I really enjoy everything about this phone. However, recently the phone quit ringing audibly when I have an incoming call. When I get a call, the screen comes on and shows that I have a call, the phone vibrates like it always does and the LED flashes bright white. But no sound, no ringtone. Actually - a very quiet ringtone, like through the small phone receiver speaker maybe. All other notifications sound out normally: SMS, email, alarms all work fine. Speakerphone works fine. Only incoming calls have no ring volume. Of course, I have checked the volume settings and have the ringtone & notifications volume slider wide open. I have changed ringtones, adjusted every sound and volume setting on the phone to no effect. I turned 'OK Google' off since I have read that in listening mode, OK Google can impact speaker output. Nothing had any effect. I have searched across the internet and haven't found any answer and no one mentioning this issue with the Z3c.
I did find that the exact same issue happened with the Z1 and Z1c when they got the KitKat update in early 2014 (http://www.androidcentral.com/sony-fix-coming-xperia-kitkat-audio-bug ) but i don't find any resolution discussed so I expect that Sony fixed that with an update.
My next step is a hard reset but I can't do that before the weekend so I thought I would throw this out to see if anyone else has the issue or - better yet - a solution.
One thing I am going to try is the stereo sound mod for the Z2 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/z2-stereo-sound-mod-incoming-calls-t2921840 ) if the hard reset doesn't work.
EDIT: 10/30/14 - I continued to try different things with the no-ring-volume issue. I took the time today and did a factory reset including erasing internal storage but that didn't help. In addition to what I described above I found the following:
- on an incoming call, the speakerphone does not work. If I turn on speakerphone, the caller can hear me but I cannot hear them. If I turn off speakerphone, everything is fine (I hear the caller in the earpiece, they hear me).
- I have LED set to off so it should not come on except for charging. But it flashes - fast and bright white - on an incoming call. This may not be part of the issue but I have never seen it flash before on incoming call. Maybe I notice it now since I have been staring at my phone while making dozens of calls to myself from another phone to figure this out.
- External speakers do work fine, I can play music, video, etc. and it all sounds fine.
So...any ideas?
I would try setting it back to a default ringtone. It may be having an issue with the one you are using. This is assuming your issuing a custom ringtone.
CollinsJ - Thanks for the response but I have tried many of the ringtones, including the default. I was actually using the default ringtone when the problem started. I am going to edit the original post to include a few more things I learned today related to this problem.
Maybe it's time to take it in for repair.
I have the same problem with my Z3, did you find a solution for that??
z3 sound
Same here. i downgraded to kitkat, no effect.
on sony forum there is a ton of people with this issue.
I got Z3 dual, incoming ringtone volume is terrible and speakerphone volume is lower than speaker for ear.
I rooted but i found no patch to fix it.
Viper4Android doesnt help
Any ideas?
Hi,
I have a Z1 which had similar problem, phone would not ring when there was an incoming call. Tried setting to default ringtone, which didn't work.
The second thing I tried was restart the phone in safe mode, and tested it, and got the incoming call ring. After that I restarted normally and it is now working. Don't exactly know what it did but it works now.
Press volume key up then choose sound. Sometimes it has been set to priority.
It worked for me!

Thank you. I restarted my phone in safe mode, like you said, and all works fine.
I have had my phone 2 years and yesterday it stopped ringing and the alarm doesn't ring either, help please
No ring sound volume on incoming call
hi Lynne rickaby, have you solved the F...k issue with the incoming sound tone?
I have an sony xperia z3+
I bought xperia st26i phone. incoming call appear, can answer, but ringing sounds not comes out. vibration also work. when i play a media file, it plays. but sound not come out. i successfully make the factory setting function also to settle it. but all my effort going vain. how to solve it. please help me
Hi!
My son called me while listening to an audiobook yesterday where I recently swapped my iPhone for one of my older Androids (Samsung S3 with custom Omega v61 ROM). I had already silenced everything in settings (power button mute etc) and to my surprise the Philips headset was ringing - and LOUDLY too I might add (almost died).
So I spent a lot of time with Tasker and SoundAbout (vibrate on all profiles but none seems to do the magic) but really haven´t been able to sort this one out. I do want the headset to be able to be used for calls also but my "optimal setup" would be that the phone vibrates while a caller calls me muting the BT headset until I have answered making sure the "ringer stays quiet" both on the phone and headset.
The weird part is that the ringtone is not the default of my phone (which has a custom silent.mp3 tone). So I thought it was built into the Philips headset but then I remembered that if I muted my iPhone it works as expected leaving me in hope of solving it for Android as well.
If anyone have time to solve this with me I would be very very grateful.
Thanks guys.

Root Call Blocker
I am very happy that I found Root Call Blocker. It makes sure that my eardrums stays clear of "incoming ringtones at max volume" while listening to my audiobooks. Great.
It seems they "block" the call before the system "acknowledges" it which perhaps explains why its possible where other fails. Are there any way of RCB asking me (popup etc) if I want to "take the call"? As in: it solves my issue, but on occasion it would be great to be able to answer if I want to. Can it be setup in a more clever way or solved with another app than this? Again: the whole point is to make sure that the BT headsets dont "call / alarm" when theres incoming calls. I do however want the phone to "vibrate" (which it now does thanks to RCB). So there only one wish left and that is if RCB could "notify" me that there are a call "ringing" asking me if we should continue to ignore or "answer" the call..
