Hi All,
Since upgrading to Windows Mobile 2003 SE I have been experiencing a really annoying problem where the ring tone resets to the default "BASS" ring instead of the one I set. The one I want normally stays set for a while but after a day or so I find that it has reset back. The strange thing is that I don't hear the BASS ring tone at all, the phone vibrates but the phone is silent. That is the worst thing because I can't tell when i'm getting a phone call!
I have tried doing a hard reset on the phone but the problem remains. Everything was fine before upgrading to Second Edition I don't want to have to go back.
Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong here?
Many thanks,
Richard.
I'm amazed that no one else has seen this problem on an XDA II. I just have the standard WM2003SE downloaded from this site.
Its driving me nuts. Can anyone help please?
Thanks,
Richard.
next time post on the right place plz
If your setting using MP3 for your ring tone, you should set windows media player for your default mp3 player. Otherwise the ring tone keeps resetting to default bass.
hope it can help
Thanks for the reply. I'm using .wav ringtones rather than mp3 ringtones though.
Cheers,
Richard.

My phone suddenly can not play mid tone when I set my incoming ringing tone to mid, instead of that it just beep a sound !
Anyone know how to rectify this problem beside hard reset of the phone !
Also I thought XDAII able to play 32 polyphonics ringing tone but seems like the playback midi tone does't sound like polyphonics tone, compare to Nokia phone ?
are you using the default mid files that came with the phone ?
because it seems that not all mid files wil work
I went through this with the XDA I, but what I found may be helpful for the XDA II:

Back up your contacts and files that you need from your ppc and do a Hard Reset it will return as it was my friend had the same problem and I fixed it with that.
Hi guys, thanks for all the respones !

When anyone is ringing my phone I have a serious problem with any ring tone it cuts out and stutters very often.
I have tried a hard reset and a number of soft resets and this problem is always there. I have almost given up on the exec and I have only had it for 2 days it seems very slow. I even used corp mode which seems to help a lot and help would be great. If I can't get it resolved by tomorrow I will be shipping the phone back to o2.
Dude, use a .wma ringtone. You can even use big long tones as long as they are wma, they will play fine.
any ringtone

Hey
. I have an XDA2i. The problem that I am encountering, is to do with the ringer. When I recieve a call, the tone comes on, but it cuts out for a split second every 3 seconds (i've timed it, it's every 3 secs) which makes for a very broken up melody lol!
The onboard sound is working fine and all tones play fine in the sounds and settings window, and when txts come through it's fine too... seems to just be incoming telephone calls.
can anyone help me with this problem please??

Good vibrations...?
Hey Bane,
Do you have the ringer set to "Ring and Vibrate"? The vibration at times could interfere with the ring-tone, and would explain the 3 second thing. Another option is the tones sample rate, is this an mp3 ring-tone? I have noticed that the driver to play incoming call tones does not support high quality files, try down sample the tone and see if you can hear a difference.

RE: Good vibrations
The phone is set to ring and vibrate, but I have tried it every which way... same problem. And I know that it isn't a result of the file, as it is a problem which has manifested within the past 2 weeks. I have been using the same tone for the past few MONTHS. Quite odd, the file incidently is a WAV file also.
I'm gonna try a hard reset when i get the itme. ( can't remembe how long the backup battery takes to deplete to give me a proper hard reset, but I'll give it a go)
Thank you very much for the tips mate, I had great hopes that the answer WOULD be one of the few you suggested, but no such luck

SORTED!
Hello there. For anyone reading this topic who had the same problem as me.... I eventually found the time to make a back up on my SD card and perform a hard reset, and this has sorted out the problem! weird though it was... a hard reset works

Ok guys/gals, this is my first post ever and I'm pretty sure I've looked and searched all of the Xperia threads for a solution to this issue I'm having with my X1i.
If i'm playing music (using WMP or the Media Panel) with the Headset plugged in and a new SMS, MMS, e-Mail, or ANY type of notification pops up, the music (or any other audio) halts/stops/pauses/interrupts the music playback to prioritize the notification sound and then resumes the audio playback. I've looked at all the sound settings to see if there was a new option (headset options) to prevent this from happening but have had no luck...
Is anyone else having this problem?
The only solution I've had to work with so far is to uncheck the Play Sound box for all the notification options available in Sounds & Notifications and check the Display message, Flash light, and Vibrate options to let me know when I get a new message.
Xperia X1i
ROM Ver: 1.02.931.3
Dated: 08/29/08
Thanks in advance peeps..
I don't think it's possible to shut this off, Sony Ericsson phones have interupted the music since the first Walkman Phone.
Thanks Burrn, but since this is now a Windows Mobile device, surely there is a registry setting that could allow for the notification sound to be heard over any already playing audio.
At least every other windows mobile device I've had does this; so if music is playing and a notification pops up, the notify sound plays right over any audio simultaneously.
In other words, right now, if I'm using Windows Media player to listen to music and I get a text, my track pauses; I hear ONLY the notify sound; and then resume the track.
I want to be able to listen to my music, get a text and hear the notify sound over the playing track without it pausing the track to notify me of the event.
If one of you experts can perhaps look into the registry settings, I'm sure there has to be a way to modify this annoying setup. I think it would to do with the headset settings since it doesn't pause my music to notify when the headset isn't plugged in; it just plays the notify sound right over the track.
Any help?
Anybody else having this issue? Any more feedback would be greatly appreciated...thx.
I encountered the same problem with my X1,can anyone please help us?

Hey togcbu, I just recently found a fix for that; but you have to know how and be willing to go into the registry; I use Total Commander to go into the registry
HKCU
ControlPanel
Sounds
InCallBuzz
open Sound (this should show notify.wma); and simply erase the sound file name and save... presto, no more annoying sound during your call when you get an SMS.
Ever since I purchased my HD2 (Telstra) in February, I have had a problem where the ring volume intermittently switches off and I cannot hear incoming calls. At some stage after with no attempted fix, another call comes through and the phone rings fine at the volume I have set. The problem doesn't seem to be attached to certain callers, it seems to do it at times no matter who calls.
The phone actually rings (albiet silently) when the problem occurs as I see the phone go to the incoming caller screen, but there is no ring volume. When I check the volume of the ring tone on the phone after the call it is still set to a bit under half way.
I have the original Telstra ROM installed. haven't tried the new one yet.
Has anyone else had this issue and found a solution? I don't want to go to all of the effort to reinstall everything just to find out that the problem still occurs.
Thanks.
Same here!
I have the US version but have had this issue with both the stock US rom as well as the offical update they just posted.
A soft reset fixes it, but its totally random and is a major pain in the ass.
Any tips? Please help!
i have the same exact problem with my leo.
does someone have a resolution for this?
Me too!
Glad to know it's not just my HD2 that has this issue. I run the UK stock ROM and have suffered with this since I first got the phone! Most of the time it's fine, just every now and again goes quiet and I miss a call... I have even had the ringtone start loud, and then fade out. Would love to know if there is a fix for this......
Hi boys,
i've a similar issue with my Acer S200 with Manila ROM (OS version 5.2.23123, Manila version 2.5.20153712.0).
In a randomic way, suddenly the ringtone volume goes zero. I have usually ringtone+vibration, and vibration disappear too, together with ringtone....!
So with a new call, i can see the "incoming call" sceen but no sound and no vibration alert me...
With a soft reset i can solve, but i cannot understand what is the condition that triggers this problem....

Erm.. try this
Settings > Sound & Display > look for "Single Volume" and turn it OFF.
whenever I press the volume key it has the option to switch between System & Ring Volume Level.
Hope it helps!
nothing helped.. performed a hard reset, now the problem is gone
No ring volume
try this: HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay --> Set "Default Page" to 0
It works on my T-Mobile hd2
