Delayed Ringing

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

slow on incoming calls.

I have a serious problem with my new diamond....
When I get an incoming call, I often miss the call because the phone is really slow to ring/vibrate...
I can see that at least for two of callers rings before it rings/vibrates on my end, the touch pad lights up/flashes. But unless you are physically watching your phone all the time, you have no chance to react in time..
Especially becase the lag-of-death os (wm6) takes eternity to figure out that Im actually frantically pressing 'answer call'
Is there some sort of registry hack for this?

Disabling the phone skin helps (download Schap's Advanced Config) and gives you back about 10Mb of memory. Also, some people say that moving from a .wav ringtone to an mp3 helps. I've not tried the latter but it certainly helped on previous PPCs.

Don't have any suggestions for your problem, but I do have a question of my own:
Who hangs up after 2 rings!?!

Who designs a phone that doesn't ring the first three times and then starts ringing? What's the point?

And the answer to that would be - HTC

BTW just a suggestion, if it might help ...
You can set alerts for missed calls - Start - Settings - Sounds and Notifications.
So.. in case someone does give you a missed call (one or two rings and then disconnects) - you will be notified with a sound. As opposed to pulling the phone out of your pocket - after 30 minutes and then noticing that you have a few missed calls from people who disconnected after 2 rings
Hope this helps.

the thing is that when the phone starts ringing, I need to react... it does actually happen that it is not in my hand, but on the table somewhere etc..
then by the time it rings the second time I get to it, and press answer.. wm6 then takes 2 years to figure out that the moron holding the phone has actually pressed te button..
by then its up to at least 5 rings on the other end... then a lot of people hang up...
what I would like was to tweak the phone to ring immedeately instead of the initial blinking for two rings...

yea someone do help out in this aspect please...
i for one have free incoming call.. so its pretty wasteful to call back a missed call when actually i could have answered it fast enough..
and im using a mp3 ringtone.. din see much improvement..

As told before: seems the diamond dialer interface is causing most of the pain. disabling it makes it respond faster.
but maybe...
someone made a custom VGA version of our Diamond dialer skin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2365614&postcount=16
perhaps if we install this we get our Diamond skin back but without delay (???). it's worth a try, I will try it later.
disadvantage: 5 Mb extra storage space consumed.

I just did some testing on my Diamond.
I have a .wav as ringtone, am using the new dailer interface and am not using TF3D.
The phone starts ringing after the caller hears the second ring on his end, not too bad is it?
Also, I noticed disabling the new dailer interface also disables the "flip the phone to mute" option?

yes its bad.. or not good enough...
did you notice that the ring on your diamond is in fact blinking for those two first rings?
So the phone knows someone is calling you, but delays the ringing?

It's really not that big a deal..
I mean.. so it rings a few seconds later... I mean.. err.. compare that to.. NOT BEEPING AT ALL when you receive an SMS (thanks for the tweak) or an EMAIL (hoping to find a tweak)..
Yeah, it's a problem.. just not that big a problem.

you can setup notifications in the advanced section of the sounds menu.
and even if you couldnt I dont see how one flaw should excuse another?!

Mate, you SERIOUSLY think that there were tonns of people who DIDN'T think of setting up the Sounds and Notifications Menu!!
Needed a registry tweak (for the SMS) and as far as I know, some are still having a problem with the Email (auto retrieval) - notification.
More importantly, nobody is saying that the delayed ring IS NOT A FLAW..
I just said.. a few seconds delay is not THAT big a deal. It's not a matter of EXCUSE one FLAW by looking at the other. Definitely not. A problem is a problem. I was just highlighting that a few seconds delay in notification is not THAT BAD as opposed to not being notified (by a sound) AT ALL

well for me its bad, and theres plenty of other people that feel likewise..

I agree it is bad and would also like a solution.
Most people who ring me get two rings before my phone even plays the MP3 and 2 rings later the answer phone kicks in.
It would be nice if the MP3 played as soon as the LED flashed like it should..

what do you mean with " new dialer interface", the white Diamond interface that comes with the diamond ROMs or the cab file I referred to?

I mean the default dailer interface m8. I'm calling it the 'new dailer' because the tweak set you back to the old one (default WM6.1).
Sorry for confusion

Ok you guys and dolls with the slow response: what ROM are you using?
I use the 1.93 (from Walshieau) en did the test many times today with the diamond dialer active. Result: the moment the phone goes over my Diamond responds. Exactly at the same time!
I did it with the device on, device off, waited 10 minutes, all the same result: immediate answer.
Are there any guys who use 1.93 and experience the delay or am I the only lucky bastard?
BTW: I use radio 1.00.25.05

Ring problem - solved??

OK guys,
I just had my "faulty" Diamond replaced - it wasn't ringing on calls, but all other sounds were OK. This is not the same issue that people have had with SMS notifications etc etc.
Basically only a hard reset cured the issue, but it came back after a few days.
Since using the new one I think I worked out what it could be, and it might be very embarassing.....part of it is to do with the stupid way HTC have implemented the volume behaviour in Touch Flo, and their philosophy of "why press the screen once when you can press it 3 or 4 times"! Dismissing email, missed call and SMS notifications from the Home screen anyone? - need I say more.
Anyway, the problem <I think> stems from the way they changed the volume feature. (and operator error).
In WM6.x native, if you turn the system volume off, then the ringer turns off - if you turn it up the ring stays off - BUT both volumes are seen on one screen. So it's obvious.
In Touch Flo there are 2 separate screens!! System Volume, then an Arrow left to "Ring Volume".
Anyone who has the apparent "no ringing" press the up or down volumne, then make sure you hit the arrow left for "Ring Volume".
My sample size is 1, so this maybe coincidental, but I hadn't realised it worked this way.
For those of you with the problem, please check the "Ring Volume" level and get back to us.
See the pic attached.....

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the 'no sound on calls' problem has been seen to happen when the system volume and ring volume have been at maximum. Indeed this has also been seen to happen on WM6.x native, where as you say, both levels are visible.

I was meaning the incoming calls do not ring at all- the sound when speaking still works.
Is that what you meant?
If yes then that's a pain - I was hoping it could be the end of my troubles!

This may or may not be relevant, but, I never change the volume (system or ringer - they're both set to max) and indeed I've even remapped the volume hardware buttons to other functions but on occasion I find that whilst my system volume remains on max my ringer volume has gone right down to zero.
It certainly wasn't me that did it - at least not directly through any positive action related to changing the volume anyway.
I cannot seem to reproduce this problem, and so for now it seems to occur randomly (of course I'm sure there is a definite trigger - I just haven't found it yet!).
Mathew

that is odd - whatever is causing it then, it might be ringer volume related...

This Has Solved The Problem On My Touch Diamond...will Probably Post In A Couple Of Days To Indicate Whether The Problem Has Returned...if You Don't Hear From Me In This Thread Again Then The Problem Can Been Seen As Solved For Good.
All The Best
Sid

no sound.
hi. just got my new diamond. it powered up alright, installed all the necessary apps and sounded great. I also adjusted the system and the ringer volumes to around 80% of max.
but if i use the phone after around 15 minutes, there is not sound. no audio player sound, either songs or incoming calls or sms or anything. its just dead silent.
wanted to go to the shop to have it replaced, but before that, i wonder if anyone can help me and tell if this problem can be solved myself.
i guess i will wait for a reply before going for a replacement.

Bad news mate. But that problem is slightly different to the topic - it's only the ring volume which doesn't work for me and certain other people.
All other sounds work just fine.

Phone not ringing, vibrating or flashing for incoming calls
I am also having the same problem with my Diamond. The phone is not ringing/lighting up/vibrating or anything when someone is calling me. I have tried calling my phone myself to just watch it remain black. I REALLY hope someone somewhere finds a solution to this problem, or I may just throw it against the wall

I also had the same problem with my Telus CDMA diamond - sound worked fine, then after a random amount of time after power off, there would be no sound - no ring, no mp3 audio, nothing. Sound would be restored after soft reset, but would again disappear sometime after being powered down. I tried everything to fix - reflashed various roms, SRS WOW driver, everything - no fix to be found. The only way I could prevent the sound from disappearing was to use the "not suspend power" option of S2U2 - sound was maintained but it sucked battery like crazy. So, I returned the phone for exchange - they exchanged no problem. I haven't had a problem since with the new phone.

Phone not ringing for incoming calls
I've had this problem twice in the last couple of days. After testing a few scenarios I have been able to reproduce this problem on my TD. Like other users, the problem that I was experiencing was that my TD would not ring upon an incoming call. It would flash the screen and show caller ID, but no sound. Ring volume and system volumes were both at max.
I have been using an alarm application, G-Alarm v0.6.4. This app was installed to the device memory. After setting a test alarm and cancelling it, I then called my TD and the problem was reproduced. Are any other TD owners with this bug also using G-Alarm? (I also found that the G-Alarm was not stopping by pressing "Stop", so thought it was a bit buggy.)
I could restore the phone ringer by opening Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Notifications. I found that my original ring tone for an incomming call had changed by itself. When I restored the ringer to my chosen ringtone, problem solved.
I uninstalled G-Alarm and so far so good.
I'm interested to see if any others with this problem are using G-Alarm or any other 3rd party alarm app.
Regards,
Paul

Paul, I also seemed to have run into the same issue with g-alarm. I say seem because although I did a hard reset the issue has persisted. The issue seems to frequently crop up when I switch sound profiles.

I've the same problem. No Sound after some call or others sounds play. When this happens and if I receive a call the others not listen my voice. This means that when audio disappear, speaker and also microphone not work, like the system can't comunicate with them. The volume control not resolve my problem. I've done HR and with nothing installed in my phone the problem come back again after few minutes. So it's not a problem of third part bad software, but htc orginal software or hardware problem.
Anyone solve it o have idea?
Thanks!

Perfect solution sickboy555 - I feel a right twit!!!!

no sound
So, for me, the Diamond is a dead brick - just good to look at, with no sound after 15 or even 10 minutes of standby.
can anyone just tell me if this type of a problem may be related to 1. Hardware, or 2. software.
I've given it to the shop from where i bought it from, but they keep on returning me the phone after a week to 10 days, telling that it's been fixed now. But the problem still persists, and I keep on giving them the brick back again and again.
Frustrated, i wonder if I can fix it myself, or just go to the shop, and throw it against the wall and count the pieces !!!!!!!!

glad to have helped!
I'm not sure if there is a real hardware issue as well. Are the others with the "same" problem sure they followed the guidance????

Hi Sickboy555,
yes I checked your advice but this wasn't the cause of the problem for me. As posted earlier, for me it was caused by my G-Alarm application. It's been over a month now since uninstalling G-Alarm and the problem hasn't returned since.

you are the man,thank you.

Thanks. My incoming ring tone problem has been solved.

er...sorry..wat is the solution again?? i dun really get it...

Disabling vibration during a phone conversation...

(Having your phone in vibration mode) Have you guys ever experienced the 5 sec mail notification vibrating in the middle of calls annoying both you and the caller??
The Japanese phones over here usually disable vibration notifications during phone conversations by default...I'm confused as to why the Diamond does not act the same way...
Has anyone else experienced the same? If so, is there a solution to this problem?

Was anyone able to figure this out? or I am the only have this issue

Nah.. i have this problem as well.. it gets pretty annoying when there's a constant buzzing while I'm trying to talk... lol...
A similar thing happens when an SMS is received while i'm on a call..
Unlike the other non-windows phones i've had where it might simply make a beep, my diamond actually plays the entire SMS ringtone from the speaker over the voice of the person who i'm talking to.... (I dont know if the other person actually hears it...)
hopefully someone has a solution to either of these problems....

No incoming call notification on Lumia 925

Hello. I recommended father Nokia Lumia 925 and now he's expriencing some weird bug. Sporadically when incoming call should trigger vibrations and ringtone the phone makes only clicking tone and that is all. No vibration, no ringtone. Only the display is signalizing incoming call. As you see, it is kind of problem when you have your phone in pocket. As for me I am android user so my knowledge of WP are limited.
Problem is persisting even after upgrade from WP8 to WP8.1. I tried setting ringtone from custom MP3 to some system sound with no result and now I wipe the phone. Still no luck.
Sorry for my english, hope you understand the problem and I am looking forward to your suggestions how to deal with the situation.
Thank you, Míra.

Sounds like a hardware problem, actually. Take it back to the store?
