No ringtone when locked with PIN or Pattern - Galaxy S I9000 General

I was missing calls for no apparent reason. I discovered that if the phone was locked (PIN or Pattern, maybe Password too), a received call woke the phone from the lock screen to the receive call screen but immediately muted the ringtone. This happens for standard or added ringtones. Don't know if this occurs on a untouched phone too or is due to an installed app
Anyone else with the same problem?
update: Looks like it was Andfire v1.2 firewall (not from marketplace)...maybe a setting needs tweaking...

vibration clearing

I have had problems when killing cprog.exe during an incomming call. On some occasions if vibration has already started it becomes hard to stop it. I have found that if I set my own notification to vibrate, then clear it, the phones rinniging vibration will also be stopped.
This would be useful except for the fact that the users notification settings can overide my notification vibration and prevent the clearing effect.
Is there any way to make a phone vibrate without using CeSetUserNotification? Or how can I override the users notification settings? Normally I would not want to override someones settings but the only other way to stop the buzz would be to reset or receive another call.
EDIT...
I found this

And the code works for turning the vibration off and on. I need to do some testing to see if it can reset a calls vibration and if it works on all my devices but it looks promising

Sound / Ring Tone Issue

Hope someone can help....
In Settings -> Sounds and Notifications, I have set the sound for Screen taps to loud and the volume of ringing tone is set to full and on....
After couple of hours, I lost any sound while tapping the screen and can't hear if some one rings me....
It happened yesterday, all worked when I rebooted the mobile.
Today it happened again, but when I rebooted the mobile, the sound came back and now after few hours it is same situation....
I even check the Setting -> Sounds and Notificatons -> Notifications -> Ring type -> Ring
Does anybody know why it is happening..
Ringer problem
I have the same problem too, when I set to ring and vibrate the ringer cuts off. I have now disabled the vibration function but the ringer volume still fluctuates between high and low, or even disappears completely. Any ideas? Apart from this (major) issue, I love the phone...
Just came abouit tis same issue. My ringer seems to fuctuate from low to high and high to low
I've had the complete loss of sound once, reboot helped.
i'm having the same issue!
after going in standby, the phone wakes up but does not ring or play sound anymore (even if you receive a call or a text message).
if you answer to a call, you cannot hear anything in the earpiece and also the microphone doesn't work.
if you soft or hard reset the device, it will work again at the beginning, but the issue will be back in a few minutes.
i verified that if you launch windows media player (or other app that plays audio) when the device has become "silent", will initially result in no sound, then - after few seconds - will make the phone restart (just the phone component, not the xperia) and the sound starts working again.
some times i got also a gwes error, which has made the xperia unresponsive to the touch screen.
btw, i'm very displeased since this device is brand new and was given me by the repair center to replace my xperia (I left it charging battery all night and on the morning was dead...)
I think I'll take it back to the repair center and ask for another replacement...
if you have ms voice command, that could be the cause of your ringer fluctuation.
I had these issues with cooked roms but not the official roms though. recommended using latest official roms with all junks removed.

[Q] Incoming Call - No vibration

Ok this is a really odd problem that I am having with my galaxy S4, running 4.4.2 NO custom roms/root or anything like that.
So whenever I get a phone call (this just started happening a few weeks ago) and I'm on the 'vibrate' profile, the phone will get the incoming call with the person's face on the screen showing me that the call is coming in, like normal. However, the phone does not vibrate at all, in fact, I see the silent logo on the top notification bar (even though the phone was on vibrate) and once I answer the call, the silent symbol is replaced by the vibrate one. This is only occurring with phone calls, not texts or other app notifications. So to recap: phone will not vibrate for incoming calls even though it is set to do so. Anybody have any idea of what is going on?!
Thanks.

[Q] stock phone app often doesnt show its gui when receiving a call

hey all,
a while ago, suddenly one day without notice, my phone started behaving funny when receiving an incoming phone call.
Often, the Phone App's GUI wouldn't appear in the foreground. the phone would ring and vibrate properly, i could silent the ring with the volume rocker, but i have no way to answer the call. i know when it is finished ringing when i can see the missed call notification in the notifications bar.
also, during the ringing, i can continue using the app that was already in the foreground, the home button is disabled, and the notifications shade is disabled (cannot be pulled down)
i have no idea what i did to cause this (maybe playing with Handy Call?) and no idea how to get out of this state.
the worst part is, it seems to be random, i have no idea why it happens sometimes and not others. it is super annoying. ive actually started assigning specific ringtones to important people so i know immediately who is calling.
any one encounter this? any ideas?

Phone restarting because of ringtone being set

Hello,
My Samsung Galaxy S5 is restarting during an incoming call only when I have my ringtone on! It doesn`t do this when it`s set to vibrate..
By restarting I mean, I have my phone encrypted and when I power on my phone and input the password to de- encrypt it shows a locking/unlocking image and that is the same thing I get when I get an incoming call with my ringtone on, shows that locking/unlocking images then brings my phone back to the locked screen.
This happens with any ringtone, my own or phones default.
Any ideas, this is the most asinine error ever.
