BUG:NO RINGTONE COMING,HELP PLEASE...

There is a bug on my Qtec 2020(FW:166)-
when someone calls me no signal goes to my QTEC(But the beep signal goes from calling phone)-sometimes signal goes only at the end of the call,and i see a call as missed.
what is it :?:

It is difficult to say exactly what could be causing this kind of problem.
Might I suggest some troubleshooting tips?
1. Backup your device
2. Hard-Reset
3. Try some incoming calls to see if they work correctly.
4a. If 3 did not fix, try flashing your ROM with the newest version.
5a. If that solves your problem, re-install all of your programs and you are finished.
6a. If it does not solve your problem, you may have a hardware problem, contact the vendor.
4b. If 3 did fix your problem, re-install your programs one-at-a-time, giving time for testing between loading programs. Only after you have proven that call reception still works do you install the next program. In this way you determine if a program you have loaded is causing your problem.
HTH!

if I understood you correctly, you have a problem where the Incoming Call bubble doesn't show, not ringing sound when someone calls you. And sometimes, it takes like 5 seconds delay before it shows or rings?
i experienced this after installing some phone related software. i suspected that the system somehow is overloaded, and the memory is somehow insufficient to handle incoming call and notify you in time.
Do you have RingtoneX, PocketZenPhone, IA Caller ID, Caller2Picture, Cell Profiler ... etc installed? What are the phone related apps you have installed? Or perhaps, could you list what are in your \Windows\Startup, let us troubleshoot the culprit.

YES.YOU ARE RIGHT.
From your list i installed only POCKET ZEN PHONE(but i also had this problem before i'v installed PocketZenPhone).
WINDOWS/STARTUP:
AFlashMan
CFlashMan
CheckAutorun
ChgDflnk
IA_Caller_ID(MAYBE THIS IS BUG :?: -but i have not it ins.on my QTEC)
MMReg
NFlashMan
poutlook
stk
TFlashMan
GUYS,Please,help...

So,what causes the bug :?: :roll:

I am running PocketZenPhone also, and do not experience this problem.
Unfortunately, I still believe that a HR is the only way you can prove that the problem is caused by software you have installed and not the hardware. It sounds drastic, but you must start from a clean PPC and prove that it works, then figure out which software is causing the problem.

ok,i'll soon try it.
BUT i wanna hear from chriswo what to do,cos he got the same bug. :arrow:

I've got a similar sort of bug, not sure what causes it though and its a pain,
I cant get the volume slider for the phone to stay above zero, i raise it and it beeps as i do it, and i close the volume control, open it againg and it back at the bottom, If i recieve an incomming call, all that happens is the screen flashes with the incomming call alert but no ringing tone at all?

how are the phone settings set ?
as in ring type ?
and how are the sounds and notifications settings

just checked them and they all appeared to be ok, but i wend back in and changed my ring tone and then tried to change it back and it said
'this ring tone is not working properly, You may want to choose a different one to use.'
Very strange, so i am now using oldphone as my ring tone and it is working perfectly!, looks like one of my ring tones has got corrupted somehow

I had the same problem also
Fix by HARD RESET.
At that time I try to test many Phone edition program. (on XDA 1 2002).
After that everytime when I try to install some new program, I'll backup my data first.

so,i still waiting for chriswo,cos he knows this sort of bug...

Phone goes MUTE. Kindly help

Hi everybody,
I have this one problem. After 2 days of usage, my Hermes suddenly went mute. No vibration or screen click can be heard even If I changed it to the loudest. I missed a lot of calls and sms due to this problem. The only way to solve this problem that I employ is by soft-reset my device.
I really hope somebody can help me tracking to root-cause of this problem and in the same time providing or proposing a solution to it.
Kindly help. Regards
morisa
Device: DoPoD 838Pro

did you unmute it from the speaker icon ?
if you have a backup restore it if not do a hard reset just make sure you backup your contacts/ stuff first

Phone goes mute
I think I'm having that problem too. Just out of the blue it happened. Didn't install anything extra the whole week. But when someone calls it rings, and if it's missed, it doens't play the miss call tone... or any other sound in that case.

Hi,
I noticed that the problem started to happen when I long-press the "Green" Button to activate the speakerphone during a call instead of pressing the "Speaker On" menu on the screen.
I've no idea why but maybe that could be the problem. Presently, I have to press that "Speaker On" on-screen menu to activate the speakerphone to avoid this problem.
Maybe other users can confirm this problem.

Got the same issue here and I don't use speakerphone

my pda´s auto mute so

No sound although speaker icon no in mute
I have the same problem. Out of the blue no sound is heard at all. I tried changing volume but it did not do any thing. Had to shut down (not soft reset) and restart device and it works fine. This happen several times and I can figure out why it does this.
If anyone can help...

Same here, I'm using a X01HT Softbank variant TYTN flashed with the latest HTC WWE rom and after about like 12 hours of use the device goes mute for some reason, making calls it works perfectly but playing sounds or ringers the speaker does not work. Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking of maybe re flashing the device since most of my information is on my storage card. I'll see if that fixes the problem :-\.

same problem here....

Same here. Only a reboot fixes it.

I have the same problem but it only happens when using the speaker phone. After the call ends, then there are no more system sounds etc. I then have to soft reset, which pisses me off as I use the speaker phone plenty in the car.
If i dont use the speakerphone, then there is no problem. Kind of strange....
Has anyone got any ideas on how to solve this?

I have same problem. I thought it was software related, but seems that it is caused by the speaker phone. I had the exact same problem with my old IPAQ 6515. It must be a software issue with WM although the 6515 had WM2003SE and the TYTN has WM5 so I do not know. Really annoying though as I use this phone for an alarm and it never goes off because the sound turns off sometime while I am sleeping - Uhggggg!

I also have the problem. Only a Softreset brings the speaker back to live.

my new problem...misery loves company
same here; curiously 2 pages into this thread and there are no real solutions.

I have solved the problem on my TyTN.
The Midlet Manager is the root cause for the Phone Mute issue on my device.

lol I just started getting this issue out of the blue after a couple of months and I didn't install anything :|
yeah nothing but a soft reset brings the sound back

Happens to me too. Strange coincidence - I've just checked my m3100 and it's giving me the silent treatment now. Time for another soft reset
I never use Midlets, so that rules the above theory out for me. However my battery was almost dead. I was using WiFi at the time, which turned itself off when the warning notifications popped up. Maybe when the battery drops below an acceptable level it turns the sound off to save power, but doesn't restore it after charging?

nope it happens to me even if my battery is fully charged

this used to happen on my i-mate PDA2k, and my JasJar (Universal) running both WM5, AKU3.2, 3.3, 3.5 and unfortunately even WM6 :S

Hi All,
After checking and testing the phone. I found out that the only way for me to solve the muting problem is by silencing the notification sound when a new email arrives. Since I have an unlimited EDGE/GPRS, my push mail is working around the clock. Thus, by not having the new email sound notify, the muting problem gone. This is caused by the notification event locking up the sound and not releasing it even after I read the mail. Previously the only way to resolve is by soft-reset but now, no more.
I have no idea whether this work or not for others but you might try and post your solution here.

Hi,
Couldnt find any suitable sub-forum so I just try my luck here.
My incoming SMS doesnt have sound despite having it enable in the sound notification. any help?

have you adjusted the master volume?that is the speaker sign at the top of the phone in the today screen.that is the master volume.if you didnt turn it on,it wont ring.

Nothing to do with the volume!

Do other notifications work (ie e-mail, reminders)?
Are you using any profile software like sbp Phone Suite?
If you have a bluetooth headset, are these notifications been routed through it instead of the main speaker somehow?
Just some thoughts.

did you install wisbar advance?heard there have been cases where PPC installed with it just wont ring.

I think phone suite doesnt affect it, but rather another SMS program that prevent the sound notification. In the end, I reinstall the firmware. Dont think is wisbar advance as I install it after firmware. But the wisbar has got problem in uninstalling it.

i think the problem arises when wisbar is installed regardless of when..

My Trinity stopped ringing

In between testing Karmba and Schaps ROMs on my Trinity I realized that it was not ringing any more. Income calls get through, I can see the pop un in the screen but no audible ring. Music and every other audible notification is working fine.Last night I flashed back to Karmba a7.2 elias, and it started ringing, but this morning problem was there again. Any idea? Will be that soft or hard problem?

No ring
I have the same problem. I cannot get my phone to ring. I what WM6.1 and when you try and change the ring, it will revert back to "Ring-WindowsMob" and you can not exit the screen by hitting the "OK" button or the "OK" on the screen. Any help would be great.

I just have the same problem after a couple of moths using Faman 4.0 with no mayor issues, it stopped ringing, all other sounds or music are ok.

I had the same problem, because tha wma file format was associated to another player and not to the standard player...

The Notification bug in Windows Mobile 2003 / WM 5.0 that causes slowdowns and alarm problems, i have resolved my problem with pmclean .
See also in main menu "Tools > Automatic Start"
sorry for my bad english,i'm italian people

Happened on my Xperia
I lost the incoming rings and the ability to change ringtone when I associated wma files with mortplayer.
I unchecked it in mortplayers settings and now everything is fine again.
Thanks speederi.

guys, it might be a 3rd party software that causes the issue. Did you guys install any other softwares that relates to audio before the problem occurs?
Like myself, i installed SRS WOW (and might did something wrong to it) - sounds were ok but after i turn off the device and wake it up, sounds are gone - actually it still plays, but very2 soft and you can hardly hear (even if i set the vol on max).
Doing an uninstall doesn't help at all. Luckily i had backup (using SPB) before installation, so i just restore back those data and got everything working back as normal.
Maybe more info would help for the rest to troubleshoots?

No ring volume on HD2

Ever since I purchased my HD2 (Telstra) in February, I have had a problem where the ring volume intermittently switches off and I cannot hear incoming calls. At some stage after with no attempted fix, another call comes through and the phone rings fine at the volume I have set. The problem doesn't seem to be attached to certain callers, it seems to do it at times no matter who calls.
The phone actually rings (albiet silently) when the problem occurs as I see the phone go to the incoming caller screen, but there is no ring volume. When I check the volume of the ring tone on the phone after the call it is still set to a bit under half way.
I have the original Telstra ROM installed. haven't tried the new one yet.
Has anyone else had this issue and found a solution? I don't want to go to all of the effort to reinstall everything just to find out that the problem still occurs.
Thanks.

Same here!
I have the US version but have had this issue with both the stock US rom as well as the offical update they just posted.
A soft reset fixes it, but its totally random and is a major pain in the ass.
Any tips? Please help!

i have the same exact problem with my leo.
does someone have a resolution for this?

Me too!
Glad to know it's not just my HD2 that has this issue. I run the UK stock ROM and have suffered with this since I first got the phone! Most of the time it's fine, just every now and again goes quiet and I miss a call... I have even had the ringtone start loud, and then fade out. Would love to know if there is a fix for this......

Hi boys,
i've a similar issue with my Acer S200 with Manila ROM (OS version 5.2.23123, Manila version 2.5.20153712.0).
In a randomic way, suddenly the ringtone volume goes zero. I have usually ringtone+vibration, and vibration disappear too, together with ringtone....!
So with a new call, i can see the "incoming call" sceen but no sound and no vibration alert me...
With a soft reset i can solve, but i cannot understand what is the condition that triggers this problem....

Erm.. try this
Settings > Sound & Display > look for "Single Volume" and turn it OFF.
whenever I press the volume key it has the option to switch between System & Ring Volume Level.
Hope it helps!

nothing helped.. performed a hard reset, now the problem is gone

No ring volume

It works on my T-Mobile hd2
