NO SMS/EMAIL Sound :( - General Topics

So a few hours ago i stopped receiving any kind of sound when getting SMS and Emails. It will only vibrate. I have done a reset and double checked all audio notification settings under Personalize and i am still having this issue. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

reboot your phone and try again. Can you hear something with your headphones?
maybe it's your phone.

Every once in a while my phone randomly changes my notification ringtone to "silent". Did you actually check your notification ringtone to verify an actual tone is assigned?

Fuze does not ring...

On incoming calls, my Fuze does not ring. I have it set to 'vibrate and ring' and it only vibrates. I have changed ringtones, ring settings, turned it off and back on, soft reset, pulled the battery out, etc and nothing will make my phone ring. All other notifications work (alarms, text messages, etc) and it will work on speaker phone once a call is connected. Is there any advice? I am trying to avoid a Hard-reset because I have the device set-up perfectly to my tastes...

What format is the ring tone in?
My ringtone is the 'Oldphone2' and it is set at'vibrate and ring'. It just spontaneously started this non-ringing thing this morning prompted by no changing of settings. As I said, I tried messing around with the setting after it stopped ringing, but to no avail. And the frustrating thing is that everything else seems to work fine. Argh!
This may seem silly, but have you checked your ring volume? I've had a situation a few times, for no apparent reason after disconnecting from Activesync, where my ring volume was down to 0. Just a thought.
I HAVE SAME PROBLEM, when you turn all to vibrate only and turn it back up . the ring stop working
Yes. all volume settings are up. ringer volume, call volume, media player volume.... Any other suggestions?
i had the same problem just now.. but changing the ringtone back to the ATT default one fixed it. I also use S2U2 and changing the setting for "vibrate when answered" or something like that seems to have fixed it as well.
Hope that helps.
what is S2U2? I have tried changing the ringtone back to ATT default and fiddling with the settings... No help there. This is frustrating. I have to keepmy phone on my desk in front of me so I dont miss any calls. I miss them if the phone is in my pocket.

this happened to me too and i hard resetted. that fixed it , then it started again. come to find out th eproblem was when i hit the volume key on the side i turned system valume up and didnt click on ringer volume to turn it up . i had to smack myself
do texts ringer still work?? if so then im pretty sure you have the same problem i had, check it. good luck though
Do you have the unit face down? It has an auto mute when face down.
I also have an alarm problem, although lights go off, the alarm doesn't ring. I also have problems with ringing on incoming calls. The speaker otherwise works fine. Volumes are turned on appropriately. I have Natfv4.0 installed. Do any of the roms fix this problem?
So somehow the problem fixed itself. Dont know how as I didnt even touch my phone for two days. I just turned it on and -BOOM- it rang a few minutes later. Totally spontaneous issue. Really strange this phone is sometimes...
Boy, do I feel dumb.....Never even noted the un hi-lighted RING volume TAB...
I guess I can't use THAT excuse for not answering calls...
Thanks

I've been having the same problem. It's very baffling to say the least. I believe it was caused by the newer versions of S2U2. Don't know if it's been discussed in that thread or not. Both times this ringer 'glitch' has occurred, it's been when I've password protected S2U2 in settings. The issue was fixed by turning the password protection off, restarting S2U2, soft resetting my Fuze.
I am having the same problem with incoming calls not playing the ring tone and missing calls. I can guarantee you that the system/ring volume controls are at maximum. I have switched ring tones to no avail. It seems to have something to do with changing the ring type from ring to increasing ring and or visa versa. When I change ring type the problem exists. If I turn system/ring volume to silent and then back to maximum it plays the ring tone just fine. There is a bug in there somewhere! I also see a 'send text' lower left of screen and I hear a blurp sound or two in the background wihile the ringtone is playing when the phone is ringing. Anyone else have any issues like this? If so or you have a fix please send it to [email protected] I'm new to this forum stuff and don't really know how to use it. Hope I didn't break any rules.
Thank you,

I just have the callers complaining that I take too long to answer the phone. I called myself, and it took 3 1/2 rings for my Fuze to ring...anyone else?
Great PPC, Lousy Phone
Mine too. I just tried it and it does not ring until seven seconds after the light starts flashing. Not only that, it will not retain a custom ring tone. I try to use Old Phone 2 but it reverts to the default on its own.
My vario iv also suffers from the missing ring tone- reboots sometimes help but not always.
I too have had to learn not to rely on the alarm- goes off some days and then not on others.
Just now I thought that I would try to play an mp3 to see if that works- I pressed play and then waited for the track to start- no sound- seconds later the screen changed and touchflow launched itself (again) went back to the home tab and the sound is back?????
Same problem... it stopped ringing...
one thing I notice is that if the number calling is private or block it will only light up (no ring) but from a caller with Caller ID open the phone will ring...
strange...

[Q] No vibration on notifications

Hello, I have a SNS since four days and I notice a bug (I believe): when phone is in Silence mode it not vibrate on notifications. No on sms, no on gmail, no on every notification types.
I tried to set "vibrate always" in every application, but the issue remains.
Can you hel me to resolve my issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hey, try with this...
messaging>menu>settings
all the way down at the bottom check vibrate
I have exactly the same problem. Every setting (main, in apps) is set to "vibrate always" but the phone never vibrates in notifications when the sound is on.
I have been hoping it is a bug in 2.3, but there don't seem to be many threads here about it. On the other hand, how could it possibly be a hardware problem?
it vibrates when i get SMS
and all other alerts when my phone is in Sound ON or Vibrate Only
It doesn't vibrate for me with Google chat, Gmail, pretty much anything other notification wise, than SMS, and my storm8 notification systems doesn't vibrate.

[Q] Ringtone Settings

I set a ringback tone to my phone yesterday (via the computer). When I went into my ringtone settings I then set that as default ringtone (thinking I would be able to hear my new ringback tone). NOW all my phone does is vibrate when it rings (even though whomever is calling can hear the song) When I went to go change it back to something different, I click on Settings, Sound Settings, Incoming Calls, Voice call ringtone and then I get an error message.
Error Message: The application Settings (processcom.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. FORCE CLOSE
I have tried a soft reset, that didn't work. What can I do? Any suggetions
I had this happen and had to do a hard reset

[Q] Call waiting sound notifcation

Hi,
I'm getting a strange issue with a relatives One S and trying to figure out how to address it. Whenever she is in a middle of a call and someone else calls in, the phone no longer makes an audible sound notifying her that there is an incoming call. She has to keep an eye the screen to see the visual notification instead, which results in missing calls since she is not looking at it during the duration of the call.
Is there a method to resolve this?
Thanks
Changed anything recently?

Check settings, call, additional options, call waiting and make sure it's enabled.

Update:
The relative told me this morning, the call waiting audio notification is working again.
In terms of if anything changed, yes I got the phone de-branded using the guide.

Did you ever find a solution to this? My phone has started doing exactly this, and I don't really know how to even begin troubleshooting it.
Yes I did. It was a 3rd party app causing the problem. A call control app that lets you accept and block numbers.....
Thanks for replying. That was my problem too. You saved me going through app by app to figure this out.
