Anyone knows how to turn off the email notification sound while on the phone on Nexus S. It's extremly annoying and and the other person can hear it as clear as I can? This is the most basic thing and I never had this problem in last 15 years. Thanks...
goto menu->settings then scroll to notification settings
select ringtone->silent
done
All that'll do is switch notification sound to silent at all times. I just want notifications switched to silent when on the phone not at all times.
Thanks for your answer though
Never heard of this issue and sounds very dumb if an alert plays during a phone call. I can't believe it would.

Well, they do! LOL. I noticed it last night while in a call.
Edit: test it yourself. Give yourself a call from another phone, then send yourself an email.

This absolutely should be user configurable within the OS, but it doesn't appear to be.
There's an app called Tasker with a free 7-day trial version that would allow you to setup a work-around.
Tell Tasker that when you're in a call, to turn off notification sounds, and to turn them back on when you end the call.
I'm just now testing the app myself, and it's amazingly powerful in its potential.
edit: On an admin note to the mods...this thread is an example of why even some of we seasoned forum members get confused over where a thread should go. It's clearly a question, seeking a specific answer to solve a problem, and it hasn't been moved to the Q&A section, yet posts that are more general in nature intended to spark discussion are moved to Q&A just because they have a "?" mark in the title or first sentence...
but this is clearly a nexus s specific issue, correct? i'm just trying to think, no other android phone does this that i can tell. certainly my nexus one does not, and i have 4 active simultaneous emails accounts going all day for the last year, exchange account and all. but isnt this something the OS would handle and be common across all devices?
unless its a gingerbread thing...

It appears to be a gingerbread thing.
I just tested it on my SGS with Doc's ROM. No sound heard by either myself or the other party on both email and SMS receipts.
Bug #103 in Gingerbread...?
Is there a website where one can submit bugs like this one so that it can be addressed in the next update? Sounds like an easy fix

Yes, you can go here, but honestly, don't expect quick results. The Google Help forums seem to get more attention, or at least feedback, from real live Google employees.
Thanks distortedloop! I just went to the website and it looks like someone already submitted the bug. Hope it gets fixed soon. Thanks again.

"Star" the issue on there to show you have the problem too, if you haven't.

Same thing happens on my Captivate since I've been playing with Froyo Roms. It's kind of annoying since I use loud, high pitched ringtones because I work on loud environment.

Videoplayback works completely fine for me.
Videcalls never were and probably never will be supported in Android.

About the Video playback, I haven't had any problems at all. Maybe try freeing up the Ram?
Video calls are not supported by Android, but if you want to try it out you can use Tango (iOS, Android) or Skype

i really want to buy this device....but i think they need to drop the price a little
but what i am really worried about is everyone is obsessed with the upcoming dual-core phones & i am afraid we wont get a community as good as for the htc desire
what do you think guys? will the desire S get a good community ?
(& also can you guys tell me if there is any restarting issue or wifi issue?)

I can't comment on the community (as I can't see the future), but as I've got the phone now I really hope that one forms!
I also share your community concern, but hope that not everyone is obsessed with these larger tablet sized phones. (DHD etc...)
I've not had a single restart and the I've had the phone for over a week.
But, the wifi drop problem is real, I don't use the phone in landscape myself so its not that bad, but, I've seen the wifi signal strength fall when I place the phone on my leg when connected to wifi. I only use wifi on the phone when in my house where the signal strength is very good, so the drop doesn't ever cause me to fall off network. (read the tech radar review conclusion).
Battery life is ok even with multiple widgets and email accounts syncing all day and fair internet usage. currently getting about 20hrs...from full charge.
Still a great phone.

any idea if sense will be updated on the s?
edit looks like its up to date but not from the first look
I got my Desire S yesterday for $400. It feels and runs smooth. It's a little small like a wildfire(I have an SGS i9000,Nexus One,Galaxy Spica i5700 and LG Optimus One). Good thing the N1 has almost the exact same screen so I used that as a screen guard. Battery isnt that great. My N1 and Galaxy S lasts for almost three days on normal to heavy use. Im happy with it.
where did you buy it from?
My friend got it for me in Singapore. I sold it. Screen too small and the camera wasn't that good. Got an LG Optimus Black now.

Hi, I've got an issue with Skype since I installed ICS, everybody I vodeo-call is reporting seeing me green, apparently the video-stream is corrupted somehow, is this a known issue and is there a way to fix this, it is REALLY annoying, the video is also quite slow, "lagged" (Not sure there, I don't really trust Google Translate on this one...) the video is "offset" by a second (tell me if you don't understand this last sentence, I didn't knew how to tell it so I used Google Translate ;-) )
Thanks in advance
Try different kernel .

Its a known issue with ICS. Skype needs to upgrade their software.
Use Yahoo for video calling for now. Its more clearer and louder sound!
skype green screen sucks
Yeah, i got the same problem here and having read here and there, it's been a known issue (to us users and to them, skype developers) for a while now, so they really need to speed up things, otherwise they'll be witnesses of the greatest migration ever of users from skype to other (better supported) video-calling apps!

Hi,
This is a known issue with the ICS Sensation ROMS.
Not all ICS ROMS are affected.
It works absolutely fine on my Transformer Prime.
I love my pixel 3a, even the front camera selfies (even though it has a fixed focus). The phone takes awesome pictures, also with the front camera.
However, during video call (whatsapp or snapchat), the video quality is very very very bad. I mean like there is water in the lens or something or it just can't focus or its trying to smooth out everything till infinity. I don't get how this is possible. I know android doesn't have the best social media camera (compared to iphone, which is better optimized), but my galaxy s8 is doing whatsapp and snapchat video's just fine and in focus.
Other people have experience with this? it's really a pity, because it's the only thing i really dislike at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated.
With kind regards
Bengaal

Thanks for your reply Asep,
I am running the same build number as you. Yes I hope it's fixed in the next update. Have you heard other people have this problem? can't seem to find many people with this problem. I would assume many people would have this issue.

Just updated to the July patch. Unfortunately still have the same problem. I guess we're just unlucky and it's somehow a hardware issue. I can't imagine that the rest of the pixel 3a owners have the same thing but aren't bothered by it. I read on reddit of one guy who was talking about blurry front camera, but after phone was replaced the problem was gone.
I've had the same problem! My build number is QQ2A.200501.001.B2. I just got a new Pixel 3a as the last camera just died, but it was also an issue on the previous Pixel 3a as well.
Any news on this? I've found several threads on Google support sites regarding this issue but they've ve all been closed without a solution. There must be more people with this issue though and I'm not sure at the moment if this is a hardware issue or not.
Since last night we're in a serious lockdown here in the Netherlands and this is becoming a dealbreaker, cause the front camera is our most used lifeline with friends and family.
I'm on RQ1A.201205.003 and using WhatsApp for video calls.
Edit: see for example this thread from Google support: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/63843045?hl=en
Hello, I have a problem with Revolut. I have an error message when I try to upload my selfie. I checked permissions but I was not able to solve the issue...
Hi Evenshop.. Same problem for me..
I tried everything but always get stuck at selfie uploading.
I tried:
1 - Clear app cache and data
2 - Uninstall and reinstall app
3 - Download a older version of the app
4 - Update Miui to 13.0.7
5 - Copy ./android/data from previous installation
6 - Logout from older device and retry in the 12su
Nothing helped
I even tried to contact Revolut support yesterday, and this is the answer I received from the support guy:
"I have asked the relevant team to look into your concern and they will soon work on that. Since the process can take a while, they might not respond right away but I can assure you that we will be constantly monitoring your case. As soon as we receive any update either me or one of my colleagues will let you know by responding in this conversation. Should you have an further please feel free to ask".
Btw.. I also posted a question regarding the problem in the Telegram group t.me/Xiaomi12SUltraOfficial
But apparently nobody in the group is using Revolut. :-(
It's good to see that I'm not alone. I managed to login using Chrome but it's not a viable solution since you have to login whenever you want to use Revolut...

Sure it's an alternative. I did the same with Firefox.. But for sure not the solution..
If I get any news from Revolut I will post it here..
What if you also open a ticket to Revolut support.. Probably if they get more "inputs" they will solve the problem faster..
Hi all...
I got the same problem. I found no solution so far. But on an other (bulgarian) forum I found a similar case with another xiaomi phone. In the forum one user wrote that it is due to security restriction on MIUI. So I am not sure if Revolut can solve the problem.

Hi,
thanks for your feedback.
This sounds a little strange. My previous phone was also on MIUI and had no problems. My wife's phone is MIUI as well and Revolut works fine.
Maybe it's something related to the CN version, but I actually doubt.
What is also strange is that if it would be a MIUI related problem we would probably find many forum talking about it, but this is not the case..
Did you open a "ticket" to Revolut support? If not I suggest to do so. I think that the more they hear from us, greater is the chance that they look for a solution.
Hi folks.. I tried to install Miui EU today. First thing I tried was to install Revolut and see if the selfie problem was still there.
Sorry to say.. But EU version doesn't solve the problem.. :-(
Hello,
Has anyone tried spoofing their device model/brand?
I haven't rooted mine yet but I am wondering if that would change anything.
Regards
OMG...I thought it was just me, that had this problem!! I contacted Revolut, but seeing it's a Xiaomi issue...I don't think they can solve anything...but I'm hoping..
Hi.. Revolut wrote me again yesterday. Saying they are still "studying" the problem.
I doubt that it's a xiaomi problem, because on another xiaomi device that I have it works without a problem.
I also use other apps that needs selfie authentication on my xiaomi and things work correctly.
I think (and suggested them) that Revolut should implement also an alternative authentication method (like many others banking apps do).
I'll keep you updated if and when they will tell me something.
Yes, same here. 12SU China ROM.
On the regular app and the Revolut Business app I get error messages and am unable to get them working on the new phone. All my banking apps and other credit ard apps are working fine. Android Safetynet compatibility test is a straight pass. I made a ticket with Revolut business and will also start one for Revolut personal.
I tried starting a bank account with N26 though, as an alternative, but that also gave an error message. It's a fintech issue somehow.
BTW my previous phone was a mi 10 ultra on china ROM, and the apps worked without a problem, but that didn't run the latest MIUI. So it might be the operating system...
Keep eachother updated!
Hi!
Did anyone got news regarding non working Revolut?
I have xiaomi.eu ROM and the same error after trying to upload my selfie...
I thought this was just me, hate to say it but I'm glad to see I'm not the only one.
I have reached out to Revolut and waiting on a response but I suspect this is a security glitch from MIUI, I am running Chinese ROM, disappointed to hear that the problem isn't solved by switching ROMS - let's keep each other posted on this.

Definitely sounding like a MIUI issue ....I am new to Xiaomi, are the updates frequent - I have raised tickets with Revolut but going to do the same now with MIUI, if we get enough tickets raised we have more chance of it being resolved fast.
I have also raised a ticket with Revolut (it is working on my old device, Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra).
I have the same issue with my Mix Fold 2. Revolut support mentioned they are looking at it...

Thanks - hoping that more tickets raised will have this addressed faster ! I have seen this pop up on other threads with CN / EU & Global Roms so either the next MIUI or Revolut update may solve it !
Hello,
I did contact MIUI through the feedback app and I got a reply (in Chinese) which after translating stated the following:
"Hello,
This phenomenon belongs to the application itself, the application is currently being repaired, please wait for the application version update.
Thank you"
Soo I guess they are claiming that it's Revolut's fault xD
