Yeah, I've been fiddiling with HTC Home (not much to fiddle with) and I came across "Automatic". What does it do for your ringer?
Don´t have the manual at hand, but if I remember correctly it checks your calender and if you have appointments marked as "busy" it automatically switches to silent mode during that period (don´t know about the vibration settings...)
Oooo! Just what I wanted! So it goes directly to silent? Not vibrate? Be sweet if there's a registry change to make it vibrate instead.
It switches to vibrate. In my opinion, a register change to make it go to silent instead would be very helpful.
You know I experimented with Automatic today. It didn't switch to vibrate or silent when my class (scheduled as Busy) started. In actuality, my phone went off during a quiz...
Something wrong?
Alright check this out. I found a set of reg keys for "Automatic" profile under HKLM>Software>HTC>HTCHome>PROFILE>AUTO. There are three keys here called "Disp", "Path", and "Type"; first two being strings, the last being a DWORD (mine set as 0). Since my phone just stays in vibrate when Automatic is switched on, without changing regardless of appointment, shouldn't a change be done here?
i remember the thing with me is that when ever i whiched it to auto it would never switch back... the sound settings would still be vib and it wouldnt go back to normal
On my Touch it switches to vibrate when there is an appointment in my calendar. It works fine in that respect but it doesn't care about the status of the appointment so it will go to vibrate also when I'm available. When I have a birthday for example, which is an all-day event, my phone will not ring all day even though it should.
Documentation
The HTC TyTn II manual says nothing about 'Automatic profile'. Anyone have ANY information on this feature and how it's supposed to behave? Could save us from buying third-party software to do the same thing.

Does anyone know of an app for PPC that will make configuration changes at set times?
I'd love to be able to program the phone to switch to silent for either a specific interval, or on a daily schedule. For example, if I'm going to the cinema, I want to set it to switch to silent for the next 2 1/2 hrs, and then switch back to normal volume and notify me if I missed anything. I'd also like to be able to program the same on a daily schedule (e.g., switch to silent between 11pm and 7am).
Any ideas, anyone?
i think pocket zen phone will do what you need.

PhoneAlarm works very well as well.
Hi Guys,
Using WM6, when I have a meeting scheduled, my Imate JAMin changes to vibrate mode for the duration of the meeting.
Is there a way I can disable this functionality?
I'm running SPBDiary (dunno if its that software, or base WM6 doing it, but I can't find an option in either to stop it).
Thanks for the help!
Further to this, using the HTC Today plugin, I have the "Normal" sound profile loaded, not the "Automatic" one. I would have assumed that the "Automatic" on would automatically change, but that the "Normal" one should not?
Yes, I am experiencing the same issue with the HTC 6-Tab Today plugin. I usually have my profile set to "Normal" but after awhile it switchesw randomly to "Vibrate" and assume that I am in a meeting. 90% of the time I am in an appointment. However, when I manually click back to "Normal" it would always switch back. The other 10% of the time I am not in an appointment and it would switch on its own. When I uninstall the Today plugin, it's fine. Problem is I like the Today plugin and would like "Normal" use of the phone and NOT have automatic switching, especially when I did not select "Auto." Is there a fix or a registry hack??
Hi all.
I hope I didn't miss something while searhing, but here goes.
I'm looking for a time based profile manager, I know of G-Profile and it's not exactly what I'm looking for. While it does change profile by time, it needs to be setup differently for each need.
I need to be able to set my profiles for an X-amount of time say 3hrs 20 mins and then switch back to "normal" again, alternatevly, being able to swiftly set "mute" or "silent" until specified time, say 15:00 hours and then going back to "normal"
The reason being, if I go into a meeting, I know approx how long it will be, but I always forget returning from "silent" resulting in missed calles. Also, I want it to be on silent when I go to bed but need it to see what SMS came through the night and then by morning, automatically set it to "normal" again.
This is made difficult by the fact that I work shifts and need the phone to be silent at different times every day, making it hard to use G-Profile. (unless I totally overseen a setting in it)
I was wondering if any of you guys know of a program/application that easily can do what I need.
I think you mean G-profile.
And for putting it to silent/vibrate during meetings, I just rely on TF3D's sound settings where it can be silent/vibrate during appointments. I sync my calendar with Google and my outlook so anytime I am busy, phone is in vibration mode.
Phone Alarm - is not free tho.

Yes, of course I meant G-Profile.. Sorry..
Yup, that would have done the trick, if I had the same shedule at all time. If it is to do its trick for me now, I would need to make an appointment of my sleep.. And that's taking it a bit far, I think...
But thanks for your reply.

Any more suggestions out there?
Hello,
I am searching for a way to automatically set vibration from 8am to 5pm (during work).
Like the sense option to automatically set to vibrate during appointment but without having to set an appointment for work everyday, it would look to confusing.
Do you have any ideas?

There's an app called Mute4 that will set your phone to vibrate for up to 3 h; maybe you could ask the developer to increase the mute time to 9 h, or have it adjustable. Otherwise, you can definitely do it with SK Schema.
I used to have a program on my old blueangel that used to allow me to change ring tones etc according to which cell tower i was in, I think it also had a time based scheduler)
Give me a couple of days and I will try to find it.
The downside was that it sucked the battery (back in the wm2003 days)

You can change profile based on time and (in paid for version) location
The last few nights, I've noticed that my phone is on vibrate before I go to sleep(or when I wake up) and I don't recall putting it in that mode. Is there some sort of auto change to vibrate setting in the phone that I may have set at one point and forgotten about? Or am I really just going crazy and I set it to vibrate and somehow keep forgetting?

Do you have Do Not Disturb set to turn on on a schedule?
That's what I checked first but no.
Samsung use to have a location based app called My Places that would let you set profiles based on location, seems to be missing in Nougat. I wonder if you have something similar installed.
