Sometimes I need to have alerts silent, and be able to tell that there is a phone call, other times I need to have both message alerts and phone calls be audible. I'm looking for a way to quickly do this.

So I downloaded Tasker and created a profile that's supposed to silence my phone when it's plugged in at night, and it almost works. Tasker says the profile is active and I can see the "silent" icon in the notification bar, but texts and emails still make noise. As far as I can tell, Silent Mode is also supposed to silence notifications, but it's not working for me. I'm using Handcent SMS and Gmail.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Captivate I was running with out of the box software. I installed a profile timer to control sound (mainly because of the "fully charged" notification going off of a night). Since I installed it, I have not been able to get my phone out of Silent Mode. If I long-press power to get the Phone Options menu and Silent Mode is enabled, then I disable it, I get the Silent Mode icon in the notification bar and Silent Mode in Settings is checked, but shows as "Off" in Phone Options. If I turn off Silent Mode in Settings, then it shows as off in Settings, but "On" in Phone Options.
Because of this, the phone is always silent. I did a hard reset, but that did not straighten it out. I've also tried a couple of different widgets to force it to ring or vibrate, but I'd like to actually get the problem resolved. I even did the upgrade to Froyo 2.2 to see if that would fix it, assuming a whole new firmware would straighten it out. It worked until I restarted the phone, but then went back to the out of sync Silent Mode settings.Does anyone have any suggestions?Thanks, Mark
So I factory reset a while ago, after 2.2 really bogged my phone down or so it seemed. So I deleted all apps and when I went to install my favorite ringtone app (Mabilo Ringtones), it was gone. I don't know if they are getting rid of the app all together or if they are in the works of making a brand new app but I'm pretty bummed cause I used to love the app.
Now the question is, what ringtone app should I use? I like to download the ringtones already made instead of editing my own (that takes too much work right?! lol)
I downloaded one called Ringlert or something like that and its really similar but everytime I assign the ringtone as default ringtone it makes everything silent for some reason? What is everyone using?
I have a Google Nexus running Android 4.1
I can set default ringtone and default notification both to silent so only people with custom ringtone can make my phone ring
I just got a Note 3 running Android 4.3
When I go to set the default ringtone there is no 'silent' option. Under default notification I can set that to 'none' which is the same as silent but there is no 'none' option for ringtone.
Can I set default ringtone to 'silent' or 'none' with Android 4.3 ?
Two issues that are bugging me...
1) Is there a way to avoid notification sounds to take place during media playback, mainly music player, without having to change my sounds profile to silent, or vibrate?
2) All of a sudden my phone is taking a little long to load SMS conversations. Is there a way to fix that? I feel as though my Snapdragon shouldn't lag when I open a text.
I don't see an option for Silent under Phone Ringtone or Notification Ringtone? What if I want to not have an audible alert for phone calls / text? I guess I could just create an .mp3 with 1 second of silence, but is there I could have sworn I saw a "silent" tone for each in the list before, but it's not there now.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOn my HTC desire, when I'm choosing a notification sound I no longer have the choice of just having it silent while I can still have the phone ringer on. I was able to do this with my old Droid back in the US and just wondering if anyone knew a way setup their Desire this way. Just I'm at work all day and still want to be able to hear calls but don't want a ping everytime I get an email or a text msg. Really appreciate any help people can give here.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy phone has a really annoying habit. Every night before I go to sleep. I switch it to silent mode. But if a call or a text message comes through overnight it vibrates. The next morning I find that the phone is now in vibrate mode. I did have Foxy Ring installed, although it was not activated. I wondered whether it could have anything to do with this, but I've now removed it from the phone, but the irritating behaviour persists. Short of turning the phone off overnight, how can I get a quiet night's sleep?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAny way to quickly hit a button to mute the phone when you go to sleep? Don't like my phone ringing when I am sleeping. On my G2 I just hold the power button and the mute option pops up. Or if I power on I can slide it to the right which mutes the phone. Side it left and it powers on. My gf has the HTC Desire Z I cant seem to find it. Only way I found out was to adjust the volume to lowest setting but this takes time there must be an easier way.

Issue: Since updating to Froyo, I've had trouble with my earpiece - it seems to not have any sound at all when making calls - only when I'm turning 'speaker' on, when making calls can I hear anything at all. 'speaker' is rather prone to distortion whilst in use. But I'm more concerned about how I can't seem to get any sound to come out of my earpiece.
This seems to be directly following installation of Froyo - my phone definitely worked a day or two ago, prior to the update. I've tried to toggle the 'in call' volume up and down, but have had no joy - it's just silent. Haven't done any resetting as yet, but have powered off/removed battery.
I've seen a few threads which suggest possible hardware fault, but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how to verify this? Seems a bit of a coincidence that it's ... well, at least as best I can tell 'since froyo'.
First post today. And it's a question. Is there a way to make the Desire wake up (ie light up the screen) when I receive an SMS or e-mail when in silent mode?
I like to have the phone sitting beside my computer at work so I prefer it in silent mode, but all I get is the flashing LED which I'm never going to notice!
Is there a way to get rid of the loud "bling" on the Telstra start up screen?I got "silent boot" from the App store, , but it doesn't work.I dont want to have to put the phone to silent every time I turn it off.

It would seem that when someone updates their profile pic in Facebook now, I lose their picture in my list of contacts.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor my closest contacts, I use the People widget that shows a "big" thumbnail photo for each contact. Most of my contacts are set to display their Facebook profile photo, and yes I'm one of the ones who has complained to HTC about it not updating.
However, a couple of days ago I noticed my Dad's picture had gone missing. He's not on Facebook, but his photo is synced to his Google Account picture. But now there's just the standard grey "no photo" icon. He definitely hasn't updated his photo, it's still there in Google Talk.
Just today I've noticed that 4 more people on this small contact list have also lost their photos. Weirder still, those contacts all have their picture set to Facebook ...
I've just run a "sync all" on my Desire and only one of those contact photos came back. A few still show the "no photo" icon.
Even weirder, is that other contact photos on the list did update to the most recent Facebook photo! Weird. I'll keep track to see if they update automatically. I don't have high hopes. (and my own profile pic still hasn't updated from a month ago)
(the sync all has also reset heaps of my contacts names back from their Google contact name to their Facebook or Google Account name.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOn my Desire I have changed my default incoming ringtone (in Settings> Sound & Display> Phone ringtone, click Ok) and when I go back in to settings the change has been saved, but for some reason when I receive a call I still only get the original impatient 'ringring' tone.

Has anyone else had this issue and know how to resolve it?
