Hello all... Ok, as I stated in the subject of this thread, my vibration isn't working on my MDA. I don't know what is going on. I've tried ticking all the checkboxes that say vibrate... moved the slider down to vibrate only... etc.. I don't know exactly how to troubleshoot it properly as I don't really know the full capabilities of this phone. But as far as I know, if you put the phone on vibrate, it should vibrate when someone calls right? Not the case with my phone.
Please could someone help me figure out what is going on... maybe it's a hardware issue that is unfixable... but maybe, just maybe.... it's some sort of registry thing where I can get it to vibrate... I don't like missing calls due to my ringtone being drowned out by street noise (thank God for voicemail and call history)... Thank you again, hope someone has a solution for me
I had the same problem happen to my 8125. The phone would vibrate when I held the comm button to change it from ringer to vibrate. But, when I recieved a phone call or text message, the phone would not vibrate. I knew the vibrate was working because it did vibrate when I changed the ringer. I had to do a hard reset to fix the problem though, so that may be your only solution.
Same here. Can anyone tell me which part or component on the O2 XDA II mini is responsible for viration?
Soft vibrate
In my case, the vibrate is working, but it's lost all it's power....feels like the motor is giving up. Is this normal? Does a vibrate motor on a phone have such a limited lifespan?
If it's used a lot then it's feasible for such a tiny vibrate component to burn out after a while maybe after a year or more.

Hi everybody,
I have this one problem. After 2 days of usage, my Hermes suddenly went mute. No vibration or screen click can be heard even If I changed it to the loudest. I missed a lot of calls and sms due to this problem. The only way to solve this problem that I employ is by soft-reset my device.
I really hope somebody can help me tracking to root-cause of this problem and in the same time providing or proposing a solution to it.
Kindly help. Regards

did you unmute it from the speaker icon ?
if you have a backup restore it if not do a hard reset just make sure you backup your contacts/ stuff first
Phone goes mute
I think I'm having that problem too. Just out of the blue it happened. Didn't install anything extra the whole week. But when someone calls it rings, and if it's missed, it doens't play the miss call tone... or any other sound in that case.

Hi,
I noticed that the problem started to happen when I long-press the "Green" Button to activate the speakerphone during a call instead of pressing the "Speaker On" menu on the screen.
I've no idea why but maybe that could be the problem. Presently, I have to press that "Speaker On" on-screen menu to activate the speakerphone to avoid this problem.
Maybe other users can confirm this problem.

Got the same issue here and I don't use speakerphone
my pda´s auto mute so
No sound although speaker icon no in mute
I have the same problem. Out of the blue no sound is heard at all. I tried changing volume but it did not do any thing. Had to shut down (not soft reset) and restart device and it works fine. This happen several times and I can figure out why it does this.
If anyone can help...

Same here, I'm using a X01HT Softbank variant TYTN flashed with the latest HTC WWE rom and after about like 12 hours of use the device goes mute for some reason, making calls it works perfectly but playing sounds or ringers the speaker does not work. Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking of maybe re flashing the device since most of my information is on my storage card. I'll see if that fixes the problem :-\.
same problem here....
Same here. Only a reboot fixes it.
I have the same problem but it only happens when using the speaker phone. After the call ends, then there are no more system sounds etc. I then have to soft reset, which pisses me off as I use the speaker phone plenty in the car.
If i dont use the speakerphone, then there is no problem. Kind of strange....
Has anyone got any ideas on how to solve this?
I have same problem. I thought it was software related, but seems that it is caused by the speaker phone. I had the exact same problem with my old IPAQ 6515. It must be a software issue with WM although the 6515 had WM2003SE and the TYTN has WM5 so I do not know. Really annoying though as I use this phone for an alarm and it never goes off because the sound turns off sometime while I am sleeping - Uhggggg!
I also have the problem. Only a Softreset brings the speaker back to live.
my new problem...misery loves company
same here; curiously 2 pages into this thread and there are no real solutions.
I have solved the problem on my TyTN.
The Midlet Manager is the root cause for the Phone Mute issue on my device.
lol I just started getting this issue out of the blue after a couple of months and I didn't install anything :|
yeah nothing but a soft reset brings the sound back
Happens to me too. Strange coincidence - I've just checked my m3100 and it's giving me the silent treatment now. Time for another soft reset
I never use Midlets, so that rules the above theory out for me. However my battery was almost dead. I was using WiFi at the time, which turned itself off when the warning notifications popped up. Maybe when the battery drops below an acceptable level it turns the sound off to save power, but doesn't restore it after charging?
nope it happens to me even if my battery is fully charged
this used to happen on my i-mate PDA2k, and my JasJar (Universal) running both WM5, AKU3.2, 3.3, 3.5 and unfortunately even WM6 :S
Hi All,
After checking and testing the phone. I found out that the only way for me to solve the muting problem is by silencing the notification sound when a new email arrives. Since I have an unlimited EDGE/GPRS, my push mail is working around the clock. Thus, by not having the new email sound notify, the muting problem gone. This is caused by the notification event locking up the sound and not releasing it even after I read the mail. Previously the only way to resolve is by soft-reset but now, no more.
I have no idea whether this work or not for others but you might try and post your solution here.

I have a problem: when I put my mda on "loud" the phone doens't make sound when someone calls me. Only the light goes on. In the settings "Ring type" is vibrate and ring, but still no sound. Tried also just ring but nothing happened, only light goes on. Even tried different ringtones, but that's not helping either. I have the WM5SE rom, but don't think that the rom gives me this problem, because I had this on other roms also, like the NBD series. When I first install the rom, everything is working fine, but after a few weeks it starts giving me this problems. I switch a lot between ring and vibrate, could this be the problem? Does anybody please no how to fix this?? Ferreira maybe you have some experience with this? Anyway I hope someone can help me, because I missed a lot of calls because of this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Check your radio version. I think the best is 2.19
And when you said it doesnt ring, does it vibrate (i.e. does the phone knows it has call comming in, and do something to respond to it).. or just a speaker problem?
Try hard reset. If it doesnt work then it may be an issue of headphones slot jam.

I have radio 2.69.11, ring type is "vibrate and ring". It does vibrate, but it doesn't ring. You know what the problem is?

It is probably (as vlodeck mentioned) headphone jack jammed. If thats the case, you should not be having any sound from the phone at all (i.e. no music, no notification sound, no SMS sound). I had this problem before, and I do not want to make this sound dirty, but you can fix the problem by poking it Poke your headphone in and out in and out

headphone works, music works also, even without headphone, so that's not it. I tried flashed radio 2.19.11 T-Mobile NL. No I just have to find someone who can call me to test it. will post the result.
hmm.. that is iiiinnnnnttttteeerreeessstting. from what it seems, chances are probably the ring tone you are using is somewhat, not compatible. Tryign changing it to a default ring tone, WAV, shorter one, that is not in the storage card.

I tried this also, it didn't work. I think I'm going crazy. If I change the ringtone and test it by pressing "play", then it works! But if someone calls me, I can only see that someone is calling, but I hear nothing! And if it's on "vibrate and ring", then it vibrates but doesn't ring! Isn't this crazy??
this may sound crazy, but just to check, is your volumn up? push your volumn slider up? make sure both the volumn controls are up.

I found the problem! thanks to you of course. I did this before but now I no the volume slider is broken. only the right volume was up and the left was all the way down. So that caused the phone not ringing. Anyway, I just have to do this with my finger/stylus in the future, so thank you for your help!
CASE CLOSED.
Its interesting but in WM5 i had all sorts of problems once where my music would not play at all. I had all the volumes turned up and all that and it still wouldnt play, then I turned the volume on Windows Media Player down to 95% and it started playing again, and i turned it back up to 100% and it was fine. Little minor glitch me thinks
hi all
anybody can tell me which tool we used on some ROMs makes the phone vibrate b4 the other part answer it ?
I'm not sure if i entirely understand your question but go to start>settings>phone and change the setting to vibrate then ring.
This has nothing to do with Hermes Mobile 6 so i'm moving it to the regular Hermes forum.
I think he means when the call gets connected, it does a quick vibrate to alert you just in case you haven't got the phone against your ear.
My Xperia does it and it's very useful to have.
Ah it's a feature of the last ROM with MBVarian OpalCanvas dialer I was using. It's pretty handy so that you don't have to have the phone to your ear to wait for somebody to pick up. Your phone vibrates briefly when the phone is answered at the other end.
You should be able to get it by installing the latest OpalCanvas dialer.
Hello everyone,
A small request on my HD2.
I adjusted my settings to vibrate + ring tone, what works.
By cons, when I put my phone on vibrate mode and I receive a call, my phone got a call in silent mode, but does not vibrate. Which means that I often miss my calls.
I wonder if someone has encountered this problem?
Perhaps manipulation in the registry?
In advance thank you,
Franky
My phone has completely stopped vibrating. It just makes a click once in a while when it should vibrate. TMO is sending me a new one.
Now this is not a coincidence!
Just as I read the title my phone - well, does nothing, but shows me someone is calling. It is in vibrating mode but it does not vibrate!
So, yes, I also have this problem!
A very strange and random thing has started to happen to my Nexus S - I like to keep my phone on vibrate / no ring but about a week ago, everytime I make a call and hang up or a call comes in and ends, the profile will automatically switch from vibrate to ring.
This has been very annoying as it has caused my phone to ring at a meeting for example and at night when I'm sleeping. Has anyone had this problem? I haven't loaded any new programs that might affect ringtone...the only thing I have that controls ringtone in any form would be widgetlocker and TouchPal dialer - I've tried default dialer and it does the same thing as well.
Might be something obvious so if anyone knows, please inform me. Much appreciated!
im experincing the same thing on HTC Desire CDMA as well......it annoying as hell....i work for a funeral home and cant really have my phone to ring
The culprit is...
Touchpal. I have it as well, and I have this same problem. Checking reviews since the last update, which just so happened to be when this problem started, a lot of people are mentioning it.
i have the same issue, any solution??
