How to Mute the ring

I had the diamond and the HTC Pro2 before and whenever I got a ring that I don't want, I just press on one of the volume buttons and it will mute the ring, but in the HD2, I remember it was working at the begininning but after some installation or tweak I lost it and even the mute ring button on screen is not working any more, does anybody know how to fix this. Thanks

Both actions should mute the ring. Try the third option. Flip over the phone to face it down. It also mutes.

I also have this issue but on text messages.. I have a song as the ringer for a text.. the ringer wont stop unless i actually open the message that was received. =(
If i get one txt after another, both songs overlap

nope, it does that for everyone. Use a shorter sound?

Thanks for reply.. However, to those considering using a shorter sound as an sms. if the mp3 sound is to short or file size to small, the phone wont pick it up, it wont even appear as an option to use as a ringer.

in that case use wma or wav files. the alarms that come built in are around 50k wma files.

Another observation was that if you fo to Setting> All Setting> Sound & Notifications.. Notifications tab, Select Incoming Message, and select Display Message on Screen.. Then the ringtone will only sound for 3-5 secons...
Just FYI..

High Message Notification Tone

I am sorry but I searched and couldn't find any relevant info:
Is there any way to make the message notification sound full without always keeping the system volume to a 100% ?
I dont see the point of having Notification tones linked with system volume.
Shouldn't it be more related to a ringer volume. I am using Dutty's HD V16 COM3 Rom...!!
thanks....

Yeah unfortunately the sms notification is not with system volume. Best solution is one volume setting and not dual.

[Q] Vibrate and then ring

Is there any way to make vibrate and then ring for income calls?

yea I would like to know the same thing. It's a great feature to have and i don't understand why they didn't have it on originally.

not a practical solution could be by adding 3 seconds of silence in the beginning of your mp3 ring tone file

That could be a good solution. Thanks.
I have seen some apps in the market to add the vibrate then ring, as "RingMaster-Ringtone". Anyone has tested it?

Separate ring and notifications

Is there away to separate the Ring and notifications? This is driving me crazy...
Thank you.

Do you mean having two separate lists of notification/ringtone sounds to choose from?
You can use a file explorer (Like ES File Explorer) to put media inside the storage\0\Ringtones and \Notifications folders respectively.
Or are you saying that your ringtone and notification sounds are identical?

Sorry I meant volumes. I would like to turn off notification volume and leave ring on.

Only can be done with a custom rom to my knowledge. That feature was implemented into the rom I'm using now.

What rom are you using?

Settings/Sound &notification/Default notification ringtone/None

I want the phone to ring I want notification off only.

Why not set up your priority mode under Do not disturb for only calls?

This is the same setting that I use on my 6P. My ringtone will go off when I get a phone but my notification is silent.

AOSiP.

XPosed --> GravityBox --> Media tweaks --> Untick the "Link ringtone and notification volumes" option

Anyone else doesn't hear touch tones when they dial?

Yes, it is enabled in Phone/Settings/Call alerts and Ringtones - Play Keypad Tones is checked.

Is the system volume turned up?
