Phone vibrates on call even though ringer is completely off? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Cingular 8125, WM5, 2.25Rom from HTC site
Photo Contacts Pro PPCv4.01
If Photo Contacts Pro is running, whenever I turn my ringer off (No Sounds, No Vibrates) and I get a call it still vibrates even though it's only supposed to light up. If I close Photo Contacts Pro and I get a call everything works like it's supposed to. ONLY LIGHTS, NO SOUND, NO VIBRATING. I have seen a lot of discussion about this program on the forums but I couldn't find anyone else who mentioned having this problem with this software. I tried the demo version of their update, v4.03, but it gave me the same problem.
Please tell me there is a way to fix this without uninstalling this wonderful program. By the way I sent an e-mail to their customer support and I will update if I ever get a reply.
UPDATE: Through testing I have discovered that Photo Contacts Pro only causes this problem when the person calling has a custom ringtone, which is about everyone who is in my Contact list because I have groups and group ringtones :'(

HTC Home/Calendar Vibrate/Ring problem

I have BA with Xplode's WM6 ROM installed and i have installed HTC Home plugin some weeks ago i found something strange: whenever i sync (i use calendar sync) it changes from vibrate (my default "ring") to sound on.
Also when a calendar reminder appears, it does not vibrate as i have select it but rather plays a sound.
I've never noticed this problem before installing HTC Home.
I've searched and found this threads with similar problems, sometimes the oposite, changing from ring to vibrate, whenever changing something on calendar, but with other phones:

It seems that there is some problem with HTC Home + Calendar/Reminder and vibrate / ring options.
Is anyone experiencing the same ? Any solutions ?
JP
I'm experiencing the exact same problem, but I cannot find a solution. I posted it in the ROMeOS forum for the Kaiser and no one had any ideas there. I didn't have this problem with stock. It is 100% reproducible on my device. I leave mine on vibrate 24 hours a day all of the time, however I started noticing (after flashing) that many times my phone would adjust to ring from vibrate. I realized if I ever changed appointment settings (even if I open an appointment, change the time, change it back, and hit ok), it will automatically change from vib to ring. My phone still vibrates whenever there are events coming up, but so far my phone hasn't gone off in any meetings yet :-/
When googling I found this similar post at ppcgeeks: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=190440
Still not much info there, someone mentions some fixes but doesn't say anything more about them.
I tried turning the "Reminder" under Sounds & Notifications settings to not include a "ring" option (unchecked it) and now I can edit calendar events without it changing to ring.
Thanks, i will try it.
JP
Eh I changed the time of a calendar entry today and after hitting ok, it changed the ringer back on :-/ Sorry I must have had a tard moment earlier.
Jason
It happens to me sometimes that creating a new appointment won't change vibrate/ring settings, but shifting an appointment will.
But that doesn't always happens, oddly.
What happens all the time is that when synchronizing with Outlook calendar, it will always switch to ring.
JP
Syncing w/ my outlook calendar does this too. This is getting annoying enough to almost want to go back to a rom from AT&T :-/ I have been searching and searching and I haven't found a solution yet.
Jason
Looks like HTC Home might be the culprit. There is supposedly a fix:

Incoming File/Bluetooth Problem

Hey evry1. I've got my Mogul running the "official" 6.1 update and everything was working fine until i noticed that i cant recieve any "incoming" bluetooth files anymore. I can add/connect/send files and pics to other phones, but when someone tries to send me something, their phones all say "unable to connect". I dont see any incoming notifications on my phone screen and i have them added on my "known devices" list. Anyone have any ideas? I did a hard reset and reinstalled my programs and still the same issue. Appreciate any info...!!
This is normal. Incoming OBEX is disabled by default in all sorts of Windows Mobile phones for some reason. I should tell you to search because this has been covered many times, but here are the registry keys:
HKLM\Services\OBEX
(Change the "Keep" setting to "0")
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Obex
(Change "IsEnabled" to "1")
thats the thing, i did search prior to my post and my registry does have the entries you posted and i still dont get any incoming beams..not quite sure what the deal is
You do have the accept all incoming beams tab checked right?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
See I have some of the same problems you are having - both with the mogul and with the touch.
but I cant even SEND contacts or pictures at this point, let alone recieve them.
I used to be able on 6.0 to open a contact.. hold the stylus on them - click on send and click bluetooth and presto - sent.. I cant do that now..
Supposedly there is another fix around xda according to another tech that I talked to during the HTC training we had yesterday.. and btw - the htc rep had no idea there was a mogul / touch bluetooth issue.. jerkoffs..
anyhow - thoughts? comments? Links to the fix that lets me send photos and contacts via bluetooth?

No SMS notification...maybe due to photoContacts pro?

Hi all,
it's a few days that my new htc hd2 doesn't vibrate and doesn't ring when a sms arrives. It's seems to be occasionally and not always.
I've noticed that seems to be bound to data connection. When data connection is active, I have no vibration/ring.
I'm not sure... I can think it's maybe a problem due to Photo Contacts Pro.
I've installed the last version, 5.50
Someone can help me?
Thank you!
No one can help me?
I'm having problems after installation of 5.5 also. In the previous version of Photocontact Pro I had it setup to play the Sportscenter theme whenever I got a notification from ESPN. Never, ever was there a problem. All my sms tones don't work anymore on this new version. Now it just plays the windows mobile default sms tone. I would revert back but I like the slide to answer. I'm using a Treo 800w. Hopefully somebody can help us get a fix for this.
I dont have that software installed but I have the same problem, sms tone intermittently working/not working. I think its a bug, I've seen others complain about the same issue.
Bagheero,
Quickest way to get an answer to your problem would be to deinstall the software you think is the culprit. If you get SMS sound and notification back then you know you will need to do some tweaking in the settings of that software when you reinstall.
If it's not the problem then install BSB Tweaks (can be found on here) and use the relevant settings to turn on notifications.
Use this to find it...http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all.
Let us know how you get on.

G1 Problem

Hello Guys,
First I just want to say I love the forum, read many threads on here last night and despite being a total noob to flashing, developing etc I thought I'd have ago and flashing my G1.
Well it went well, love the new software, but I have one problem - I can't download from the Market place - whatever application I choose to download just stays as 'downloading' but nothing actually comes down - my data connection works just fine, with normal internet browsing working normally.
I wonder if anyone could make a suggestion - please find my phone set up data
HTC G1/Dream
Firmware 2.1-update1
Baseband version 62.505.20.17H_2.22.19.26I
Kernel version 2.6.34-cyanogenmod
Mod Version CyanogenMod-5.0.8-DS
Build Number EPE54B
Thanks again!
Also noticed that despite inside the notifications menu, I have the LED turned on - when I receive a text the light doesn't flash?
Thanks
Ok, thats one problem fixed - the issue with downloads looks like a Marketplace issue - so that's all good!
So, just one other thing - when voicemails or texts are received the light doesn't flash - even though I've got it set up correctly in the settings....
Anyone else with this problem or have any tips?
The notificaton LEDs only work when the screen is off. You really don't need them when it's on.
Sure, but even when my screen is off and I get a text the LED doesn't blink.
Try checking that the missed call LED is checked under call settings.
All of a sudden without doing anything at all, it's working now - very odd.
This new OS is pretty Juicy on the battery, but not sure if its the fact I've been getting to know it all day.
A bug found by the looks of things - none of my contacts will save?
I've added the same person 3 times and it says saving contacts but when I got back in to contacts it isn't there .......anyone offer some suggestion(s)?
I've tried to synch with google and nothing happens - why doesn't the contact save to the phone or SIM? I'm not overly interested in storing contacts on Google - the standard firmware for the phone stores them on the phone/sim - where in the settings does it dictate where a contact is stored to ?
Thanks
Solved, the contact wasn't displayed as some of the boxes under contact settings weren't ticked - why on earth would I want to "hide" my contacts?? Oh well ......thanks
