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?
I just had the need to hard reset my phone.
Since doing so I have 2 odd issues. Firstly, I cannot set the voicemail number in the phone settings. When I try to I get told that it has failed. This also means that when I press and hold 1 on the dialpad to go to my voicemail, the phone doesnt know what number to call.
Also, when I make a call, the call status screen if not positioned at the bottom anymore, it seems to be positioned just above and you can see the screen behind kind of peeking through underneath! Its very odd.
Can anyone help?
I case that when I talk with some and then another one call me. Yes it have notification sound to alert me that another line call. but the problem is my first line that I talk before can hear this notification sound. I try to use bluetooth headset and smalltalk but they also the same result. Anyone got this problem too? and How to solve?.
incoming call and contacts freeze
Hy
The problem is as it follows.
The phone was in idle when I received an incoming call. Immediately the ringing stopped and the phone froze. I couldn't answer and had to force close. Then I tried to get into contacts and showed nothing black screen, as in call log. I also tried to get into messaging but since it is linked to contacts it would not work either. I played with it for so long that it eventually froze so i had to reboot. After reboot i can access the contacts normally. But this is an inconvenience that i have to get rid of. It happened to me twice now.
I'm asking you if anybody had similar problems and how to get rid of them? I'm waiting on formal release of froyo for updating so I preserve my warranty.
I'm running stock firmware that i received with the phone:
2.1-update
I9000xxjg1
2.6.29 [email protected] #2
Eclair xwjg1
Thanks
Running ViperROM: if the phone is set up for PIN unlock, with screen off, I've got an issue with calls.
Call goes to my phone, screen turns on and I get the regular dissmiss/answer screen. If I hit dismiss, it answers the call. So does answering the call.
Anyone else having same problem?
Recently I have not been able to use or see an on-screen keypad when I am using Android auto for phone calls during the call. I can get to the screen that is shown in my picture but there is no place to press a key pad during the call or an option for hanging up the call. Anyone else have this problem where can tell me how to fix it?
I usually initiate phone calls by telling Google to call a certain person.
Update: Well after a quick Google search I found that it was the Samsung car mode app that was interfering. So I uninstalled it and everything is fine. Let's just leave this here in case anyone else has the issue.
