I'm trying to find a Profile Manager App that will let me silence my phone, but still allow my phone to ring only when certain contacts call me.
WHOISIT looked to be promising, but my VIP's don't ring and after I take my phone off Silent, all of the volumes stay minimized.

Hi guys,
I need your help. Im using a Asus p750 running wm 6.1. It seems that the phone dosent care to what profile im using. If i have phone on "silent" without ring signal or vibra still the phone rings at a incoming call. Same on all profiles i use. Always a ring signal!!! Total newbie so hoping for a easy fix. Maybe you expers have any ideas?
I have tryed to use SPB phone suite, same problems with thoose profiles. Phone dosent seem to care what profile i shoose to use.
Cheers.

Are you sure you are turning down the ring volume and not just the system.
Thnx for you answer Joel.
I set profile by Settings - Profile - Silent/Meeting etc. If i shoose Silent (Volume:Off Vibrate:Off) and i go back to the homescreen i notice a speaker icon with a X next to it. So i guess i have shoosen correct to get a silent incoming call? Dosent happen though, phone screams like a pig when i get a incoming call. Im i doing something wrong?
tap the speaker icon in the bar and you should get a pop up with two sliders, one for system sound, one for ringer, turn the ringer all the way down and try it again.
Both ringer and System sound are set to lowest and OFF. Still a ringsignal when a incoming call. Was just in a meeting where i bragged about the meeting sceduler that sets phone to meeting profile by auto. Ye right i had 3 incoming calls disturbing that meeting. Argh.
Ahh im using Inesoft Phone Suite and that stupid software uses its profiler and it seems to override all other profilers. Great, now i know what the error is... to bad you cant disable just the profiler... good software othervise..
Ver 5 let's you turn off the Profiler.... but... it doesn't actually turn off... whatever Inesoft profile it was set to when you disable the profiler remains active...
Really annoying... and their support seems non-existent...
I've been searching for an app that will allow me to designate specific contacts or groups to override silent mode. For instance, I love sleep. I don't get enough of it. BUT, my girlfriend or boss or family need to be able to get a hold of me, so when they call or text it will notify me, even in silent mode. I believe Blackberry's have a feature like this.
this gave me the idea

Ideas?
There is an app called auto ring that will do that. I use it for the same reasons

Just tried it. Perfect!
i use foxyring, lets you set sleep hours, auto silencing, emergency contact list that can ring thru sleep hours with special ringtones. It can even do location based audio profiles. want your phone to auto switch to vibrate when you walk into work? it can do that. It even audio samples your current environment and adjusts your ringtone based on the ambient noise in the area you are located.

I love this app, but I wish it could do something else though, and having a hard time trying to search on it.
Just like Auto ring allows for certain contacts to override the state of the phone, I would like certain APPS to be able to override the state of the phone, for example, I would like my weather app to send its notification sound when weather alerts come out, regardless if the phone is on silent or vibrate ...
Sorry for hijacking the thread ...
Sorry for the Caps, but I asked this question a few months back, and all I got were apps to set up profiles. I could care less about those.
I want a process running in the background that will allow me to silence an incoming notification (MMS, SMS, Email, FaceBook, Battery Low, Connected to computer, etc etc).
Example: Sitting in surprise meeting, and forgot to silence my phone. If I were to get a phone call, I can mash the hard buttons through my pants, and the ringtone goes silent, just like that. I want that functionality for a notification sound. Say, somebody sends me a text message, and for that individual i have "Bye Bye Bye" from N'Sync as their ringtone.
If that were to happen in the meeting, I would have to adjust, pull my giant phone out of my pocket, wake up the screen, unlock it, then pull down the notification bar. By the time I silenced the phone, the song would have through the second verse, and my reputation shattered.
So, if theres any apps like that, I would love to know about them.

Any one?

I'm a guy who likes his phone to be as quiet as possible. It's always in vibrate. However, there are times where I'd like to hear some notifications, say text messages or calls from people I'm expecting, or other events relevant at the time but everything else is still suppressed to vibration. Is something like this possible through an app, or is it something that requires a bit of modding in Android? It's more convenience and definitely something I could live without, but it'd still be nice.
Make sure your phone is set to vibrate on all events. Change the ringtone of what you don't want to vibrate to a silent ringtone, and what you do want to ring to an audible one.

Hi guys,
On my nexus 5, I can set my phone to silent, only vibrate, only ring, ring&vibrate sound modes. However problem I'm heaving is that those modes work only for phone incoming calls.
But for apps like messages, email notification, fb ... I can not make it to go into all 4 those modes. If I go into app setting and for notifications if I check sound box and vibrate box - then my phone would vibrate even if it is set to ring mode. If I uncheck vibrate in app settings - then my phone will not vibrate when is set to ring&vibrate mode. It will only vibrate when is on only vibrate mode.
Is there a way to fix this so I can have silent, only vibrate, only ring, and ring&vibrate mode for calls and app notifications?

I use Llama for this. Tasker would also work.

How did you set Llama to get it to work. I have Llama but it does not do what i'm looking for; that is when set to ring only mode phone calls and notifications would ring/sound only. When set to ring&vibrate phone calls and notifications would ring and vibrate.
So far only way to make this happen is to go to every app and check notification vibrate when i want it to ring and vibrate. But this is pain in the b... to always change for every app.
