Stock N1 just stopped ringing (playing the ringtone). While the phone is receiving a call...pressing the volume button doesn't do anything. When in settings to change the ring volume, it works (plays the ringtone). I've rebooted twice...pulled the battery...and still no ringtone (even changed ringtones). Notification ringtones work...it's just the call ringtone.
Hoping to not Reset the phone. Any Ideas? (haven't installed any new apps for weeks)
Are you sure the volume for the ringer is up? It is possible for the ringer and notification volumes to be separately set.

When listen from phone setting, the ringtone i set is loud. but actual incoming phone call comes, the ringtone's volume is soft 1 stage from setting (ie, set phone and system sound volume at 4th-stage, but actual just 3rd-stage)
-System and phone sound volume at 4th stage
-The Equalizer setting is activated and configed. If not, the ringtone is more worst.
-This "problem" found in 20060426 and later ROM. Previous ROM didn't has this problem.
-Tried set max for ringtone, the actual incoming call's ringtone's volume is loud enough, but once become miss-call, distortion sound appear.
Any solution to solve it?
Thx for helping
Today I experienced a strange issue with my Leo. The ring volume autosets itself to silent. I manually increase it to max (both ring and system) using the volume keys but immediately after exiting the volume control window it sets itself to silent. I tried to set it to vibrate only but - same thing, it goes to silent again. The sound icon in the taskbar shows normal volume (i.e. not silent). When I receive a call it does not ring nor it vibrates. Its silent. The device plays music and sounds normally. I believe there must be a registry key that somehow was changed but I'm not sure which program might have caused that.
I use Phonegate call filtering app and Iconsoft PhoneX but cannot find anything in their settings that would cause it. Also tried removing them - no effect. Soft reset - many times
HR may be?
are you sure it is setting to silent? it could be that the chosen ringtone doesn't exist anymore? Try changing to a different ringtone and back again.
Tried that but still with no success
hmm, could it be that you have an appointment set, and the phone set to go silent during appointments?
Stupid me! In the windows sounds and notification settings, Notifications tab I found that for the Incoming call event the ring type was mysteriously changed to NONE when it should be set to RING. I don't know how could this happen by itself... But thank you, samsamuel for your logical suggestions and sorry for posting before thoroughly check my device.
hehe no worries, it generally turns out to be something simple.
Hi,
I searched the forums and found few threads for this windows mobile issue but no solution or what so ever.
Issue is with Overall Volume settings and controls.
I was previously an IPhone owner and i just recently moved to this amazing phone, however i do miss my Iphone for its few simplicity and user friendly setting options.
When my iphone was use to be in idle situation (not silent) and i use the volume rockers it use to change the ringer lever but it didnt change the media playback volume or in call earpiece volume. And When i was in a call, using the volume rockers would make adjustments to just the earpiece volume without changing any other volume setting. And when playing media it will just change the volume level for the media. This is a very natural behavior as we all would expect from our device.
But with my HD2 it gets really confusing and annoying at the same time that i dont have indivisual level of volume setting for in call, ringtone, and media playback.
I understand that we have the option to seprate the system/ringer volume level but still it doesnt work at it should.
I want to keep my ringer type/level to be at vibrate most of the time and my system to be at full or wtv level based on my preference at that time. But i want my phone to vibrate for text messeges and emails or wtv alerts i turn on. Just like how it was with iphone, if my phone was on silent(and vibrate setting on) my ringer wudnt sound and neither wud my text msges wud sound but my phone wud vibrate on text messages when vibration was turned on.
But with this phone if my ringer is at 0% volumes and system is anything above 0% my text messages wud vibrate and sound. how ever my text message sound should be attached to the ringer volume level not the system level volume.
Scenarios:
1).
System/ringer level same == no.
ringer level = 0%
system level = 50%
sms notification = on
In this above scenario if i receive a call my phone shud only vibrate and not sound. if i receive a text message it shud only vibrate but not sound. and if i play media it shud be at 50% level and my call volume shud be at 50% aswel.
But right now if i get a phone call my phone wud not ring but it will vibrate.(which is good). If i get a text message it sounds and vibrate (not good). media is at 50% level (good) and my call level is good aswell.
i am looking for a solution that would give me 2 things. First thing is to allow me to choose if i want vibration at all or no. And secondly make my notification attached to ringer volume instead of system volume.
i am sure alot of ppl are looking for this solution and would agree that this phone lacks volume settings and options.
thanks

Volume controls
Same gripe here..
Unable to get unilateral volume control on this magnificent phone.
Sometimes, its as if the smarter the phone, the dumber the remedial tasks can be.
Its not the perfect fix, but this is what I have mine set for.
Under Audio and display settings:
PROFILE: is set for normal
VOLUME:
ringer volume at zero
system volume at 50%
RING AND NOTIFICATIONS:
Ring type: Vibrate only
Notification Sounds: OFF on all..
That way, sms and email only display the green light on ear bar, rather then the chimes..
and music volume is adjustable without triggering the volumes back on..
Hope that helps.
You can choose to set independent settings for system and ringer volume control or set them up to be the same with the vol rocker keys. It is available in the settings.
I have a rooted SM-G900V with 5.0. The ringtone volume for incoming calls fades up and down - LOUDquietLOUDquiet. When I select and play that ringtone, the volume is consistent. I've tried different ringtones and get the same results: varying volume. I'm using the stock phone and dialer apps.
Help wanted.
Tthe ringer volume setting is being changed as the phone rings. If I hear the ringtone and answer when the volume happens to be down, then check the ringtone volume setting, it's almost off or even down to "vibrate only". What is going on here??
Still looking for help with this...
Okay so hopefully someone here knows how to do this. Did some googling but couldnt find something specific. I link ringer and notification volumes.
Previously on android phones, when setting the ringer volume to Vibrate, my phone would vibrate for all notifications/calls, and media would be completely muted. Alarms would still play sound.
Now, when I set my ringer to vibrate, media will still play sound as if i didnt set the phone to vibrate. Alarms still function as expected. Do you know if there is a way for the phone to silence media as well when put in vibrate mode?
