I am using ViperS 5.0.0 but i think this is an HTC sense question in general.
I need notification sounds but i love to have my phone on vibrate only. i have found threads for people who want the opposite. Sound Butler, i have not tried yet. i want to make sure it definitely is not possible without an app.
Any ideas?

Halo everyone, I just flash the new Rom to my 32A magic.
I find everything works fine,,,,but but but!!!!
Lastly, I realise that the speaker doesn't make any sounds out!
No sound when I play music, phone sounds, notice sounds, calling in/out.
None of them works.
I already switch to the Max Volume but still in vain.
What's the problem? Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

Is it happen after you use camera in some app like twitter or google buzz widget?

This happened to me too when flashing cm6 RC1, I have 32a. Tried wiping and reflashing, same thing, no sound whatsoever. Then flashed alan90s cm6-mod just to check, that worked for some reason, now I have sound and everything is normal.
I'm going to close this because it was posted in the wrong section.
Thread merged/deleted/moved/locked!!! This is DEVELOPMENT section not General!!!!
If you want me to open it back up again then I need exe127 to send me a private message requesting where that it should be moved.
Does anyone know how I can replicate the sense function of putting the phone face down to silence the phone during an incoming call? I'm not using a sense ROM any more so would like to add this feature with tasker.
take a look right here man
I've seen that already thanks, but the apps available to do it start ringing again as soon as you turn the phone back over. On sense however it stays in silent until they've stopped trying to call. That's what I'm trying to replicate, hence why I'm wanting to do it in tasker since it's customisable.

If sense could do it then tasker should be able to too, if I knew how to do it of course!
Does anyone know how I could do this with tasker?
I have the following, just made it for you, it's rather simple:
Create a profile, name it like "Turn Down"
Add the State->Orientation:Face Down
Add the task u want to(Silence phone, block calls etc) And done.
Cheers, I'll have a look but I think when I tried last there was no option for it to only silence the ringtone for that one call. I'd actually forgotten about this thread, so I'll have another look.
Just looked again and remembered why I couldn't do it. I can't find any options to choose orientation.
Hi all,
I found a few other people with this issue but no definitive answer on how to fix it.
Just got the ICS update from Orange and all is well (after having to do a factory reset as messages wouldn't load) apart from ringtones.
If I set my own tones for email and txt and ringtones it will work, but any kind of reboot will set it back to default, and it also seems to be if the phone has slept for a long time it will lose the ringtones.
All tones are in either '/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones(notifications or alarms)'
or they are in '/sdcard/ringtones(notifications or alarms)'
These have always worked on previous android versions.
Now, I find what seems to cause this is the SD card not syncing correctly, it is mounted and if I unmount/re-mount it, sometimes the tones will come back.
If I go to 'personalise->sound' The tones say;-
ringtone = quietly brilliant
notification = zeta
alarm = new day
But if I click on the sound set itself it tells me that all my personalised tones are selected.
This is getting very annoying as I will have my ringtone for a few hours, then all of a sudden it jumps back to whatever it fancies.
Is there a known bug or a fix for this, it's only been since the update to ICS.
Thanks for reading and hopefully I have described the issue enough to make sense.
Darren
It's a known issue. I push all of my custom ringtones to its respective directory in /system/media/...
Simple work around.

Ok, thanks.
I kinda knew it would be the answer but wanted to check I wasn't the only one with the problem.
Do you know if this is an ICS issue or is it a sensation issue?

I think it's an issue with the restarting "media" service

There have been guesses for both, but I believe it happens in the senseless roms as well...

You can also add ring tones and notifications by
Settings- sound- phone ring tone - menu soft key- more ringtone - New ringtone
This way you won't lose ringtones when rebooted. You can also add alarms and notifications the similar way

Thanks for all the answers, I will give them all a go.
With regards to putting the files directly on the phone do I need root access (im not near a pc until later) as I don't really root my devices since them seem pretty stable nowadays.
Thanks

Yes, you would need root access.

I have written an email to HTC to explain the issues and ask when they will fix the problems.
I know Android is still classed as 'a bit geeky' in terms of OS but now it is used on so many devices we shouldn't need to root our phones to change the ringtone, it's almost as bad as an iPhone
If I hear anything back from HTC I will post in this thread.
Darren
I wondered if there had been any update on this? I have tried various Android 4.1 and 4.2,2 roms and it always happens after a reboot (currently CM10.1). I have even tried converting the ringtone to OGG format, placing it the \system\audio\ringtones folder (on phone) and fixing the permissions but that did not work!
I'm (obviously) rooted with an HTC Desire HD. Thanks!
The notification and call volume are the same. It has been the case ever since ICS and the only way to over come the issue is to use a custom rom, even rooting doesn't do anything to over come it.
I always sleep with phone on silent but I have started missing important unknown calls and was thinking that I should just keep my notifications silent when sleeping. So how do I do that on a nexus? Well I can't lol. Even if I select silent ring tone for notifications in the settings some apps like whatsapp have their own notification tone setting and will over ride whatever you have selected in settings. So basically I need to change the setting for every app everyday lol.
Now with iOS 6 even iPhone gives you higher control over notifications than stock Android. In the day of increased push services and what not a smartphone really needs to offer robust control over all this.

"Stock" on a SIII would mean TouchWiz, wouldn't it?
He means completely stock Android.

He already said that making the phone silent made him lose important calls. He sure doesn't want it to be switched off
I used an app called volume control in the past to control notification and ring tone volumes individually. There's a free version on the play store. Give it a try

Solution to every problem out there. Go spend that $6. It's totally worth it.
I think a much bigger problem with vanilla android is the lack of a T9 dialer. This is one of the most useful and important features on a phone for me and i don't think there's any way to fix this without a custom ROM.
I wish google would just add this and get it over with. I see no reason why they haven't already done so.
i have no idea if the stock from has this feature but im running paranoidandroind 2.54 on my gnex and there is a option to link ringtone and notifications together or have them separate. But even before using this rom i remember when you go to setting->sounds->Volume you can change ring and notifications separately.

I agree; Android definitely needs better sound/LED notification controls. For an OS so heavily invested in "personalization," it certainly lacks any here But oh wait, the Android fanboys and Google nuthuggers say its fine, so I guess it must be, right?

there's ton of apps that let you "personalize" sounds and led notifications if you just look for them in the play store not to mention the countless roms that include these features. no need to start insulting people because of your ignorance.

You can get t9 with third party dialor you don't need custom rom or even root for that. I use touch pal contacts its a brilliant app and you can theme it as well. The best thing about android is that you can change default system apps.
And people I have used several profile applications but all of them are riddled with bugs. The more powerful an app is the more bugs it seems to have. And some of those bugs can be so severe its not even funny. Like one of these apps "profile scheduler" would sometimes disconnect my network after a phone call lol wut.
However of course I am not giving up I am searching for apps that can unlink the notification and ring tone volume and seems like some of the devs have been able to do it now.
I am rooted btw so I will look into the recommendations put forward by a few posters.

Because Samsung was never stupid enough to link the notification and ring tone volume. Bleh android oem's can be good at times lol.
I am also amazed at the blocking mode in jelly bean galaxy S3. I would like to see Samsung add profiles to blocking mode but in any case it trumps every other phone in terms of the sheer control it gives you. I have realised it really is better for such critical features to be built in instead of using an "app".

I know xposed framework would allow this option but I don't believe it is supported for this device yet. Is there anybody else who has figured a way to separate these two volumes? I need the phone to be able to ring at night as I'm on call but not be woken by email and other notifications.
Thanks for any help.

Try Volume Butler. Lots of settings, works really well.
