On my imate kjam, in order to set silent mode quickly, all I had to do was to hold down the left comm manager button for a few seconds and I would be in silent mode. I have tried everything with the TyTN, even depressing the scrolling button, etc... but I can not get anything to work. DOes anyone know which key depression will place the phone in silent mode ?
Ringer Off/On Button
Hi there,
There is a free progam called VibraSwitch which you can set to any button (I have my OK button set)
If you install this you will be able to switch easily between Ringer On and Ringer Off with Vibrate On quickly and easily.
If you can't find the program let me know and I'll email you the .cab file.
Regards

Hi,
I suppose the question has been asked but I don't find.
Is there any cab to put on the phone to turn the phone into vibrate or silence or ring mode?
Thank You
I am not sure if this is what you are after, but you can map a long press of the end call key to set the phone to vibrate under settings --> system --> long press end key
Yes i know this way but this is not what I m looking for.
A button to push to turn the phone in another mode.
Thanks

Built in volume buttons?
Ciao, Andrea
here you go. each time you run this app it cycles through mute, vibrate only and sound profile.
I hate vibration on phones. Period. Hate it. I must be doing something wrong because when I silence my phone, it always seems to vibrate when I get a phone call.
This is how I am setting my HD2 to silent:
Scroll over to setting Tab in manila>Sound & Display>Check Silent.
Sometimes I like to play music (with HD2 in pocket) while I am doing my work but don't want to be interrupted with a vibration from phone call, so I use the hardware button to lower volume to zero (Not pressing the silent button) while keeping system's volume up so I can hear the music.
No matter what, I my HD2 still vibrates when I get a phone call.
Help me get rid of the Vibrations!!
Actually I was just hunting for a solution to this.
I don't understand what the point of having separate options for "silent" and "vibrate" are when silent also vibrates?
I have no issue with vibration for other reasons - I just want silent to be just that; when I want it to vibrate I would select vibrate....
When you check 'silent', scroll down to 'notification sounds' and in there you'll probably see the slider is set to vibrate. turn it off there and see if that works

When I do this, or press a volume key and tap "Silent" at the bottom of the volume screen, my phone stays correctly silent with no vibration.
My usual ring settings are even on "vibrate and ring".
right now it seems that whenever i put the phone into silent mode from the unlock screen the only notification i get is the blinky ball. nothing else. i have to go into the settings to turn on vibration notifications every single time.
is there anyway to make it so i can have the vibrations on and ONLY turn the ringer/sound notifications on and off with the slider on the unlock screen?
i know i can just lower the volume with the rocker to the vibrate middle ground, but being able to handle it from the unlock screen would be nice.
No.........

With the slider only: no. However, you can slide to mute, unlock and hit the volume + rocker up once. Hit it again to restore the original ringtone volume.
...At least that way you won't have to go digging into the settings.
So far I like this phone alot. However my biggest complaint is this:
When you go to messages and click on someone to go send a text and you start typing on the hard keyboard only to look at screen and nothing is there. Why does it not automatically select the box so that you just start typing and go. I do not want to physically tap that box every time I want to start texting. My G1 does it, why doesnt this?
Am I the only one?
Mine automatically goes to the text box after selecting one contact. If I click the To box to add another recipient, it stays in the To box once a contact is selected. This is exactly how my G1 did it. Check the Input Method you're using... I'm finding many strange things based on which keyboard I have selected, regardless whether I am using the hardware keyboard or not. I currently am on Touch Input, and it is working the way you want it to right now.
When im creating a new message to a new contact then yes after selecting a contact it switches to the compose box. I am referring to conversations I already have currently. When Im in messages I have like 4 threads/conversations... with phone horizontal and slide open ready to type with hardware keyboard... I click on my gf's name/thread. When its done loading it i have to manually tap the compose box every time. If my phone goes into sleep mode with that window still there then of course when i power on the phone it will still be selected on the compose box. I tried this with different keyboards and different settings. I checked it with every conversation/thread. I pushed back clicked a new person/conversation and low and behold same thing. It never automatically selects it so i can just click somenes name/conversation and start typing with hardware keyboard
Another thing I find is that if i start typing something phone goes into sleep power back on and phone changes from portrait to landscape it erases my msg that i was currently engaged in. And I dont mean drafts either
Appreciate the help btw : )
Oh I see... yes, mine also doesn't auto focus to the message box... Interesting. I can't recall how my G1 handled that, but I am sure it was the same as your. Not sure what to tell ya there then. The only other suggestion, and this depends on how you get to your messages, but if I open Messages, I can long press on the message and choose Reply, and then the message box is auto-focused...
I just tested it out on my G1 and it autofocuses on the texting box every time. sigh...
I use the google voice app for messaging, but one thing I noticed last night is that holding the VOLUME DOWN button will only turn the ringer "down" to vibrate. On my G1, it would go all the way to silent.
In order to get it to silent you have to hold the lock/power button on the top, select Silent Mode, and then press the volume button once to get the "silent icon" to show up in the top bar.
found another bug:
When in wireless setting, wi-fi settings, menu, advanced setting, ipaddress. when trying to set ip address all the numbers are screwed up 1 becomes 7 2 becomes 9.......? only way to get it correct is to use FN key. Even using FN key twice causes them to be messed up

mine goes to silent mode if you don't go all the way to vibrate with the volume rocker.

LOL this ... Silent mode is above vibrate
Sure enough, you guys are right! Strange, so now it is Vibrate -> Silent -> Volume levels, my G1 was Silent -> Vibrate -> Volume levels

I'm sure this was intentional, and I for one like the change. My phone is either ringer volume to the max, or vibrate. I have no use for no ringer and no vibrate mode. So it's convenient for me to simply hold the Vol- key all the way and it goes right to Vibrate, no more having to go + once to get vibrate now

I agree. I can't tell you how many times I accidentally put my G1 on silent and not realized it. It's still possible though, but I think it less likely since vibrate is the lowest option.
I'd actually prefer if silent wasn't even on the volume rocker. I've hardly ever used it and if I ever need it, I have no problem holding the power button and selecting silent on-screen.
