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.

Hi.
Here's the situation: I'm using 3VO rom build 2.00.
My phone works as it should when in Vibrate mode. When I change it to Normal mode, the vibrate icon in the top bar is still present. When I get a call or a message, the phone is still vibrating and it doesn't ring. I've tried to reset profiles to default, I've tried changing the ring type of a certain profile (its set to Ring, I've changed it to Ring and vibrate and then back, same situation).
I've tried switching on the vibrate mode with a key (on my model this means tab/#/vibrate key), and the vibrating icon is still there.
When my profile is set to Normal, I get a sound when i send a SMS.
What else can I tell you? Oh, I've also tried a reboot, same situation.
It worked fine for a month with this new rom, now it's not working... And it bothers me sometimes because I cannot hear when someone calls me, it's just vibrating (same with the Outdoor or Automatic mode).
So can someone please advise? I've used search on the forum and google and couldn't find a similar description of the problem.
Thank you so much in advance!
change ringtone sound to something other than vibrate
the default ringtone i believe was vibrate. change the ringtone to something else in the sound settings. if not reflash the rom works well for most everyone else.
soclean, you are my saviour!
Indeed, I had to change the "Ring tone" setting under Start/Settings/Sounds (it was set to Vibrate).
Thank you man.
no problem. happy to hear i was a help and it wasnt something else wrong with the phone.
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.
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...
Long time now I am having a problem with Ringtone "Muffling" while phone rings after 1-3 seconds...
It goes like .AMR sounds...
Ringtone clarity enhancement hotfix does not working for new roms.
I heard about disabling HTCvolume.
But then you can't have a good control of HTC volume...
Questions:
-> Is there any program that works the same as Volume Control
with the same Keys and options for making the HTC volume disable works?
Is there another way of fix that?
-> I go when the Sound Profile is in "Vibration" mode
and change it to "Normal" mode (full volume up).
SOMETIMES
When I end a call that started in Normal mode,
it goes by itself to Vibration mode...
And when I recieve an SMS Message, it goes to Vibration mode again.
I switch it everytime but, with new message, goes to Vibration again.
It stops when i Restart the phone only...
(what the heck, this phone has many problems... )
sounds like its realy muffed up. is it still within warrenty? if it is take it back
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.
