Is someone else also facing this issue?
New Nexus 4 Silent mode issue
Hi,
Even I got a brand new Nexus 4 very recently as a birthday gift from my sister who stays in USA. I stay in India and even I am facing the same issue.
PROBLEM: The phone automatically toggles between ringer and silent mode when making calls.
Say if I've put the phone in silent mode, on making a call it will go to ringer mode and if im on ringer mode, making a call will get me to silent mode.
PS: Did you find any solution? It really gets annoying during meetings as you said.
Also if i reboot the phone this issue gets fixed for some time but again it starts happening.
I have already done a full factory reset twice. Nothing seems to be working for me. I know it's a software bug but it's a new device.
Any solutions??? Plss... Or did your problem get resolved? How if it did...
Sadly No solution to this problem.. But now a days trend has reversed fro me .. if i have it in vibrator mode and change it to ringer it chnages back to vibrator on its own.. this is frustating
Facing the same man... It's not a new problem... we are facing the same issue...
As I mentioned... if its on ringer it goes to vibrate and if its on vibrate it goes to ringer... But if you reboot it gets fine for some time.... then starts happening again...
Let me know if you find a solution. Otherwise have you experienced any screen Freezing during Incoming calls (Unable to pick up) and all? I'm facing that too...
what about: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2248866
Avg is the culprit according to that forum but.. I need to test it out.. tahnks anyways
AVG SUCKS! - It's the reason for all this chaos
AVG is the cause... Thanks a lot. It never occured to me that what was installed to protect my phone was the reason to corrupt its software.
Uninstalled it and now its perfectly fine. Love my Nexus 4.
Suddenly my N4 4.3 rooted when vibration mode is on and im receiving a phone call instead of vibrating is changing to silent mode, not only on phone call almost on everything SMS, Gmail. I'd mind the rest but phone calls are more important for me then the rest!! Any idea why suddenly my phone decided to do thing like that?
So I have a Galaxy S5 with Android 5.0 Lollipop (OTA update came a week ago).
I need to keep the phone completely silenced during the night except for the alarm which has to wake me up in the morning. While the phone was running Android 4.4 I used the Blocking mode which I could set to affect incoming calls and notifications but not the alarms.
Now that Android 5 is there and TouchWiz has been updated, there is no Blocking mode anymore. I can choose to allow priority interruptions only or no interruptions at all. If I select no interruptions, the alarm doesn't sound at all.
If I select priority interruptions and check only 'Events and reminders' I kinda get what I need, but not quite. Incoming calls, SMS, WhatsApp and Facebook are muted and the alarms sound just like they should. However, Viber and Skype do not get muted. This means that I should manually sign out of skype and/or kill it in order to have peace from the app.
So what should I do? I want to easily silence the phone and keep everything muted except for the alarms. I want to do this quickly - with one touch. Going into priority notifications mode and then manually signing out of apps is no way to go.
Any help would be appreciated
Bump for this, searching for solution....
Sent from my SM-G900F
double bump...
triple bump...
My fiance's GS5 upgraded last night and her alarm never went off this morning... I woke her up and told her - she saw her phone's alarm going off on the screen with no sound. She didn't change any of her alarm settings before/after upgrading so this is a FAIL on Samsung's end in my opinion.
I realise that this is a lollipop feature, but I believe that Nexus ROMs let you pick which applications are priority (to disable Skype notifications, for example), which doesn't seem possible on the S5.
HTC seem to have kept their silent profile for the M8 lollipop update - lucky them!

Select priority interruptions and turn off data/internet. There's a toggle for that in the notification panel.
Or better yet, put phone in airplane mode with blocking mode off. That's what I do.
Airplane mode seems like the easiest solution for your problem.
Use the Do Not Disturb app. Perfect replacement for Blocking Mode.
If you disable "Events and reminders", does it do what you want? You still get alarms with that unticked.

No, with that unticked I do not get any alarms.
Airplane mode is a possible workaround, but not perfect, because the risk of forgetting to switch back to normal mode is high. Furthermore, I enjoy reading my missed notification first thing in the morning... Going to give that do not disturb app a go
Long story short, this is a major fail for the new firmware. I don't know if it is a Lollipop issue or a less than perfect Touch Wiz implementation of the new Lillipop notifications concept...

That's strange, I still get alarms. There's even a message at the bottom of the interruptions page that says alarms are always considered priority.
I also still get all the notifications, just no sounds for them (I run in priority mode most of the day), so I can still catch up on notifications.
I'm running version BNL9 but not sure if that makes a difference.

Huh, I guess you could forget however I don't see how since there's an airplane icon instead of the signal bars.
Has the problem been fixed on Android M?
So we have the new Silent mode which does not let Alarms through and does not blink the LED for Notifications.
We also have the new Do Not Disturb mode. Which is supposed to block unwanted notifications when on (Not working to well with third party apps many people are reporting).
There are some settings for it which are quite different then the old Blocking Mode in KK.
I'd like to discuss the old way you did things (In KK) and then discuss what the options are with the new way of doing things. (In LP).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My use scenarios (that worked in KK):
- Normal - Sound mode, Blocking mode off
Normal setting during the day. All notifications un-blocked and make noise, vibrate, led, etc.
- Working - Sound mode, Blocking mode on
Silenced all notifications and text messages, calls were allowed through. Led light worked so I could glance at my phone and know if I had a new text, email or whatever.
- Temporary quiet time - Silent mode
I would switch to Silent mode if I was out somewhere like a show or something and wanted silence. I could have turned my phone off in these times but Silent mode worked fine most of the time.
The only thing to watch for is if you had an Alarm set, it would still go off.
- Bed time - Silent mode
Everything quiet except my alarm that would wake me in the morning.
I'm very interested to hear how people use these settings and their workarounds with the new LP methods.
Hopefully we can figure out some methods. Even if they are third party apps that you've had to resort to. But ideally while working with what we have.
Do not disturb has a setting to allow alarms on my VZW S6
On silent mode my alarm still rings and my led still blinks

So are you using DND as your Bedtime setting?
If you have DND set to stop all but Alarms what do you do for those other temporary times that you may want different settings for DND?

Wow.. I just tried again and the Alarm did go off with Silent mode.
I swear I tested it all the first day and it wasn't going off. I'm on the newest update now though. I wonder if that was it.

I just put the phone on silent...
What I miss from ( KK) Blocking mode is that it actually rejected incoming calls. The (LP)Do Not Disturb just mutes the ringtone, therefore people calling think you just missed the call and keep trying. Not really a big deal for most but as my work phone it was handy to be able to toggle blocking mode and my employees knowing when they called if it right to voicemail that I was driving or in a meeting. Now they just keep calling lol.
All of the 3rd party apps I've tried do reject calls but generally after 1 or 2 rings, and some have issues with 3rd party apps. I wish we could just use the KK blocking mode again
Do not disturb sucks. When I turn it on it doesn't work like it supposed to be. I still get the notifications on screen
Good evening!
This is my first thread I hope It wont be my last either
So I purchased a brand new Samsung S6 edge +, Do not Disturb Mode (DND) was working perfectly until I updated the system to 5.1.1 lollipop..
Before when I activate DND it would automatically disconnect any calling users, but now when I activate it, It just gonna silence it :/ its frustrating... I did try searching to how-to fix this issue but I couldn't find any solution:crying:
Hope someone out there knows the answer
up up up
any one out there is willing to help?
:C
There's no fix for that, that's just how DND works now. It silences all calls, messages, and notifications so that they 'do not disturb' you, but theyll still come through like normal.
If you want to stop that, just switch the phone into airplane mode.
