Hello,
My LG GM750 (with stock WM6.5) doesn't ring anymore, nor does it vibrate when set to "ring and vibrate" - it vibrates though when I set it to vibrate only. Reminders don't ring/vibrate either. G-alarm pops up an error message that the sound file cannot be played. WMPlayer does not even start. When I try to make settings in Wireless Manager / Phone Settings, the OK button in the corner of the screen does not work (the settings window just stays on the screen).
During phone calls everything is ok and other applications can play sounds.
I have installed quite a lot of applications, but everything worked just fine for at least one month, then it suddenly stopped ringing: G-Alarm, SPB Mobile Shell, mRing, S2U2 (with caller ID) etc.
The same problem happened to me some time ago and the only way I could fix it was by doing a hard reset (soft reset is useless).
Any ideas on how would I be able to fix it this time without performing a hard reset and taking it all over from the beginning and hoping it will not happen again?
Thank you!

So I received a phone call and decided to ignore the call with a sms. Well the phone app freezes, so i go start>messaging>write a new sms and sent it out. Now the hang up key wont shut the screen off! the only way for me to do it is to press opt+hang up or just wait for the backlight to turn off! i've soft resetted and pulled out the battery!!
should I hard reset?
did you install any new apps recently? my keyguard did the samething when I installed the msgled app.
recently no, but week ago or so I did. HSDPA cab hack, HTweak 2.1, opera 8.65, mini mo, spb alarm clock, and verichat.
ultimately I hard reseted the phone and all is well again...short of setting up my email and the programs. Did not install spb alarm clock and mini mo. hopefully it wont do it again!
thanks for the reply!
I have just one issue after switching to Windows Mobile 6 (at first "Faria real thing", now "Crossbow Reloaded"). Sometimes the phone behaves as if the sound was switched off.
I read various discussions about which radio ROM is better etc. for not missing calls, but I guess it is not that problem. The call gets through (so I guess radio rom is ok). When having the phone in such state, I checked it by calling from the fixed phone on my desk - the call got through, there was message on the display that somebody is calling (just the ring was silent).
Once in such situation I tried to switch on/off the phone application - no change. The one thing which seems to cure it reliably is to go to the phone settings (I usually try the ringing tone I use - it works ok - and press ok). Afterwards it is normal (the phone rings).
I have not found yet any pattern when this happens... Is it possible that the phone somehow loses setting (about the set ringing tone, or about volume) and it is fixed by going to phone settings?
Has anybody else such experiences?
Othewise I am happy with WM 6 (especially I like "Internet Sharing", quicker booting and the fact that when running "Opera Mini" in "Midlet Manager" it no longer ignores hardware soft keys). Just this think is a bit of nuisance.

I've seen this a few times myself, and yes, just playing your ringtone via the Phone Settings will fix this issue. I can say that I haven't seen this issue in some time, and thats since I stopped using the press & Hold of the CommManager button (upper left side of the phone) to switch my phone in and out of Vibrate mode. I used to use that to do a quick switch and it seemed sometimes after coming back out of vibrate mode, this issue would happen (not always, but a few times). I've now quit using that button that way and I don't think I've had the non-ring issue since.
Thanks you for the information, I will try it. It may have been the problem with that button - I mapped there task manager which I use often and pressed it sometimes a bit longer...

i'm looking for a way to have the touchscreen on my smartphone disabled when a call comes in. I usualy have the phone in my pocket. When a call comes in and i'm taking the phone out my pocket, i accidentely touch the screen. And that's mostly not in the "accept" spot off the screen
So i would like to accept or decline the call by pressing the hardware keys only with the touchscreen disabled.
Been searching the forums and googled my way over the internet. Without luck so far.
Any ideas?

S2U2 uses a slide to answer feature, very nice.
Installed s2u2 and it sure looked great... until the first soft reset (after nightly backup). After the soft reset the phone freezes every time a call comes in, having to soft reset again. Whenever a call comes in (when phone is locked or switched off) the normal s2u2 lock screen pops up without the call notification and that's it. Phone freezes and soft or hardware keys don't work anymore.
I even uninstalled SPB Mobile Shell to see if that was conflicting with s2u2. No luck.
Couldn't get rid of this problem so i uninstalled s2u2. Shame, i liked it...
Any other options to answer my original question?

I have an HTC Touch Cruise. The first problem occurred when I dialed into a system with a touch tone menu. For some reason I couldn't access the menus. It was working fine earlier in the day.
Now it cant even dial out, the phone makes the tones, I hit send and its just blank. Also, when someone calls the phone will ring, I can hit answer but I can't hear them and they can't hear me.
I am on my home network, I have lots of bars, etc.
I have tried a soft reset and even a hard reset.. same deal. I also tried changing settings in the registry for DTMF HKLM,"Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","EnableDTMFSupport" I have changed it to 0 and back to 1... neither setting works.
Thanks,

Hey guys, i've got a problem. First off, KforTouchPro works fine on my HTC Touch Pro, i can configure buttons fine for Morphgear, PocketGBA, SmartGear etc, it works wonderful. And as everyone that uses this app already knows, you have to switch the setting to MS IME before you launch your game emulator, or else you can't configure the keys. Well, my problem is, after i'm done playing a game, sometimes I forget to switch the setting back to default, and whenever i do a reset or shutoff my phone, it hangs at the screen right before it shows your homescreen and touchflo3d tabs.
Basically, for those that use EnergyROM, it hangs at the screen that shows you the black & blue background with the word EnergyROM 3.0 in the bottom left (or something like that, can't remember). That means you can't do anything at all, since there are no buttons etc for you to press as the home screen is not fully loaded, so basically you got a semi-bricked phone as no matter how many times i try to turn on the phone, it just hangs there, which results in me having to do a hard reset in the end.
To prevent this, you MUST restore the KforTouchPro setting back to the default setting, but sometimes ppl forget and this will cause a semi-bricked phone, which is very risky and quite dangerous.
So, is anyone else having the same problem as me?? Is there a solution to this??
And lastly, what's the difference between KforTouchPro and KforRaphael??
