I just received my 750v today. The problem I'm having is that when a call comes in, I'm used to pressing volume up or down key to have the ringer and/or vibrate silenced. This works fine on my treo 650. When I do this on my 750v, it just lowers or raises the volume but that's it. My ROM is 1.12.0a.00. Any ideas on this??
I don't own one yet but I know there's a switch on top to totally silence the unit, but vibrate will continue to work as long as it is activated. This has been a trademark of Treos.
Every treo I've had, I've been able to silence both the ringer and the vibration simply by pushing either the volume or up down key. Yes the switch silences the entire unit but I like silencing individual calls so the ringer isn't going off more than what is needed to let me know someone is calling.
For Treo 750v, it is very straight forward but it took me a week to realize it. To silence the ringer when calls come in, just press any key on the QWERTY keypad.
On my treo 650, I could silence the ringer by simply pressing the volume key. This was very convenient as I didn't have to take the phone out of the case which saved time as well as having the ringer go off minimally. If I have to take the phone out of my pocket or a case, the ringer basically goes off long enough for EVERYONE in the room to notice. Anyone know of any fixes for this? My treo 650's original firmware did the same thing, then I updated the firmware and voila, it worked the way I wanted it to.
Silence a Treo 750V
In order to be able to silence and stop vibrations of the 750V you will need to do the following
from the main screen select preferences then phone settings, this as long as you have a sim card in the phone will take you to settings screen you then need to select the ring tones link for incoming calls, you then need to work your way through the list of possible events suck as phone:known caller, phone:missed call, phone:unknown caller and then delsect the vibrate when ringer is off option, this will stop the phone vibrating when ringer off and funny enough ...
To silence a call on the 750 (Cingular), all you do is press the spacebar.

I recently built a ROM using mUn's 5.2.968 (Build 17217) and the kitchen. It has been working fine but today I managed to hit the volume control and put the phone on vibrate. Anyway I put it back on ring but it seems to be stuck on Vibrate. I have the volume control set to the middle for the PDA, and one step higher for the phone, also with the phone screen on and click menu, options it is set to Ring Type 'Ring' and Ring Tone to one of the built-in files. However it refuses to ring when I get an incoming call; it just vibrates
Any ideas?
Thanks

This actually happens periodically in all WM6 roms I've tried. For me, I've only noticed this happen when I've pressed and held the Comm button to switch to Vibrate and then switch it back. To fix the problem you can either go to Settings > Phone and play your ring tone (just hit the play arrow) or do a soft reset.
I used to see this more on NTS and XPlore 1.1 than I've seen on Faria Vanilla (not sure I ever saw it there) or on my Crossbow Reloaded (I've seen it once) but to be honest after realizing it appeared to be tied to the press and hold of the COmm button to enable and disable vibrate, I've pretty much quit using that feature. I don't know that I've ever seen it happen if I drag the volume (not ring volume but phone volume) to Vibrate or off and then back.
I've chalked it up to one of the "bugs"/"features" of WM6...
Hi,
How can I have a profile/setting which will Ring once and then Vibrate, currently both work hand in hand, I want the phone to ring only once and then continue vibrating. This is there in all Nokia phones...
Basically this is very useful in office where The phone will beep once and then Vibrate.
Thanks
I'm hoping there is already and answer to this question but I long for the winmo days when i had the option to silent my phone without vibrate, now it seems the only option is volume up or silent with vibrate, sometimes I need the phone to be silent without vibrate, like when i'm interviewing or a in a training class and people near me don't need to hear my phone vibrate incessantly.
is there an option to put the phone on silent with no vibrate?
i've been using my wp7 hd7 for several months

Click to expand...

settings - ringtones + sounds - turn both ringer and vibrate to off. should work.
You can disable vibrate there.. and to switch between ringer and silent press vol up or vol down and tap on the bell icon in the top right of the pull-down shade..
I wish we could go from vibrate to silent right from the volume control though....
Sent from my SGH-i917 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I'm only using NoDo, but I'm pretty sure if it's set to vibrate, and I turn down my volume all the way, it won't vibrate at all.
I've been looking all over xda but can't seem to find the next thing:
Is there allready an app or a homebrew app available that let's WP users mute their phone very easily? As well as sound ass vibration.
It is pretty annoying I always have to change it in the settings.
Regards!
There is a volume-control app (in the dev&hacking sub-forum, I believe) but I admit to finding the request odd; why not just hold down the Volume Down button? If you have vibration enabled and want to turn that off too, you'll also need to turn on the screen for a sec (no need to unlock it, though).
Normally my phone is on vibrate + ring
When I'm in a normal meeting it is on Vibrate only
When I'm asleep/ important meeting/... its muted completely. No vibrating, no ringing.
It is pretty easy to switch between the first two. But to get it completely muted I always have to go via the ringtone settings.
If I hold the volume down to zero it will always keep on vibrating. I don't seem to get your point?
Ah, my bad. It used to toggle between Vibrate and Silent when you tapped the button on the screen. Now it just toggles the ringer; you can't disable the vigrate from there anymore. Dumb...
