Volume autosets itself to silent - HD2 General

Today I experienced a strange issue with my Leo. The ring volume autosets itself to silent. I manually increase it to max (both ring and system) using the volume keys but immediately after exiting the volume control window it sets itself to silent. I tried to set it to vibrate only but - same thing, it goes to silent again. The sound icon in the taskbar shows normal volume (i.e. not silent). When I receive a call it does not ring nor it vibrates. Its silent. The device plays music and sounds normally. I believe there must be a registry key that somehow was changed but I'm not sure which program might have caused that.
I use Phonegate call filtering app and Iconsoft PhoneX but cannot find anything in their settings that would cause it. Also tried removing them - no effect. Soft reset - many times
HR may be?

are you sure it is setting to silent? it could be that the chosen ringtone doesn't exist anymore? Try changing to a different ringtone and back again.

Tried that but still with no success

hmm, could it be that you have an appointment set, and the phone set to go silent during appointments?

Stupid me! In the windows sounds and notification settings, Notifications tab I found that for the Incoming call event the ring type was mysteriously changed to NONE when it should be set to RING. I don't know how could this happen by itself... But thank you, samsamuel for your logical suggestions and sorry for posting before thoroughly check my device.

hehe no worries, it generally turns out to be something simple.

Maple vibrates instead of ring in Normal mode

Hi.
Here's the situation: I'm using 3VO rom build 2.00.
My phone works as it should when in Vibrate mode. When I change it to Normal mode, the vibrate icon in the top bar is still present. When I get a call or a message, the phone is still vibrating and it doesn't ring. I've tried to reset profiles to default, I've tried changing the ring type of a certain profile (its set to Ring, I've changed it to Ring and vibrate and then back, same situation).
I've tried switching on the vibrate mode with a key (on my model this means tab/#/vibrate key), and the vibrating icon is still there.
When my profile is set to Normal, I get a sound when i send a SMS.
What else can I tell you? Oh, I've also tried a reboot, same situation.
It worked fine for a month with this new rom, now it's not working... And it bothers me sometimes because I cannot hear when someone calls me, it's just vibrating (same with the Outdoor or Automatic mode).
So can someone please advise? I've used search on the forum and google and couldn't find a similar description of the problem.
Thank you so much in advance!
change ringtone sound to something other than vibrate
the default ringtone i believe was vibrate. change the ringtone to something else in the sound settings. if not reflash the rom works well for most everyone else.
soclean, you are my saviour!
Indeed, I had to change the "Ring tone" setting under Start/Settings/Sounds (it was set to Vibrate).
Thank you man.
no problem. happy to hear i was a help and it wasnt something else wrong with the phone.

Alarm, profiles and sounds problem/question

I noticed something last night after setting my alarm for the first time. If my phone is set to vibrate or silent the alarm doesn't sound, even if I tick the box "sound alarms even when the device is set to silent or vibrate" in the cloks and alarms folder in "All settings"
I've found that this is becasue in the profiles silent and vibrate, the system volume is set to 0. The only way I can get my alarm to sound is if I turn the system volume up. However, if I increase the system volume up on either of these profiles (eg select vibrate, keep rinder on 0, and set system volume to 50% for example), after about 20 seconds it automatically swaps to the profile "Normal". the normal profile then has the settings I set for vibrate ie, ringer 0, system volume 50. If I select vibrate again it goes back to the default vibrate settings, ie ring 0, system 0. Why does it automatically go back to normal, and thus altering normal, and can you personalise each profile?
I want to be able to set a profile where the ringer is off so I'm not disturbed by phone calls in the night, but where the system volume is on so my alarm will wake me in the morning. I can set it to profile and adjust the ringer volume using the side volume controls, which is my solution for now, but I would like to be able to do it by selecting a profile.
Cheers
I’ve got exactly the same problem. Having Xperia X1 previously windows had a simple option to set off the alarm even when the phone is in the night mood, so I wasn’t bother by anything during the night and have my reports in the morning. Not anymore with my new HTC HD2. If anyone have a solution please share it with us.
There is another problem of mine. As previously Xperia X1 let me show the time across the whole tabs in the tab/notification bar, again HTC HD2 doesn’t seem to have that function, or does it?

I'm sure I came across an option for this whilst exploring my phone, but I can't remember where. If I find it again I'll let you know, unless I'm totally losing the plot and there isn't the option and I've just made it up lol

[Q] Ringtone Problem and Changing Profiles

Long time now I am having a problem with Ringtone "Muffling" while phone rings after 1-3 seconds...
It goes like .AMR sounds...
Ringtone clarity enhancement hotfix does not working for new roms.
I heard about disabling HTCvolume.
But then you can't have a good control of HTC volume...
Questions:
-> Is there any program that works the same as Volume Control
with the same Keys and options for making the HTC volume disable works?
Is there another way of fix that?
-> I go when the Sound Profile is in "Vibration" mode
and change it to "Normal" mode (full volume up).
SOMETIMES
When I end a call that started in Normal mode,
it goes by itself to Vibration mode...
And when I recieve an SMS Message, it goes to Vibration mode again.
I switch it everytime but, with new message, goes to Vibration again.
It stops when i Restart the phone only...
(what the heck, this phone has many problems... )
sounds like its realy muffed up. is it still within warrenty? if it is take it back

[Q] No notification/ringer sounds

Hi All!
I have heard about similar issues around, but now I have one, and the problem is that I run stock android 4.3 on my Nexus 4.
The issue is not always there. It happens occasionaly and then dissapears.
What exactly happens: sometimes I stop hearing sounds of notifications and ringing. Media and alarm are working at the same time.
When I try to change the volume in Sound-->Volumes I get the situation on the image in the attachment.
So whatever I do, I get "silent" ringtone. After clicking OK, and opening the Volumes once again, the ringer volume is set back to "silent"
I have also looked a bit into the adb console in my android studio and when having the issue I have a couple of lines, that don't appear when The issue is not present:
Code:
audio_hw_primary: out_set_parameters: exit: code(1)
Not sure if it helps but still.
Does anyone know what could be the cause? Where should I dig? Thanks!
The icon means your ringer has been muted. Have someone call you and then use the volume rocker to turn the volume up

Thanks for the answer, but I believe it's not what you say. I am able to talk using the phone with no problems, without even touching the volume rocker. So this is not muted. However, the situation on the picture results in muting the notification and ringing sound.
So I see it as a different problem.
I meant the icon means it's on silent

I understand. But the behavior should be as follows: I drag the volume level and the icon changes, right? This is not happening. However I drag the widget, the "muted" icon does not change.
But I will still try what you suggest, though I am sure it is not the source of the problem, as in your case it would not turn on and off by itself.

[Q] Ringtone is irregular volume unless i switch vibrate on?

Ringtone is irregular volume unless i switch vibrate on?
I help with a friends phone
We both just upgraded
Her phone has an odd problem that when it rings the volumes goes up and down to nothing loads of times. If vibrate when ringing is turned on the problem stops
I tried the "disable increasing ring" app it still does the same
I have an odd similar problem with mine (on another post)
is the ringtone volume fading out because something is trying to go over the top (like the text to speech)
How can i fix this irregular ringing volume (the vibrate when ringing is a quick fix)
I used "my backup pro" to copy across setting for mine and her phones. Does this cause problems like this?
how can i fix it?
Cheers
