[Q] Ringtone is irregular volume unless i switch vibrate on? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

Sound / Ring Tone Issue

Hope someone can help....
In Settings -> Sounds and Notifications, I have set the sound for Screen taps to loud and the volume of ringing tone is set to full and on....
After couple of hours, I lost any sound while tapping the screen and can't hear if some one rings me....
It happened yesterday, all worked when I rebooted the mobile.
Today it happened again, but when I rebooted the mobile, the sound came back and now after few hours it is same situation....
I even check the Setting -> Sounds and Notificatons -> Notifications -> Ring type -> Ring
Does anybody know why it is happening..
Ringer problem
I have the same problem too, when I set to ring and vibrate the ringer cuts off. I have now disabled the vibration function but the ringer volume still fluctuates between high and low, or even disappears completely. Any ideas? Apart from this (major) issue, I love the phone...
Just came abouit tis same issue. My ringer seems to fuctuate from low to high and high to low
I've had the complete loss of sound once, reboot helped.
i'm having the same issue!
after going in standby, the phone wakes up but does not ring or play sound anymore (even if you receive a call or a text message).
if you answer to a call, you cannot hear anything in the earpiece and also the microphone doesn't work.
if you soft or hard reset the device, it will work again at the beginning, but the issue will be back in a few minutes.
i verified that if you launch windows media player (or other app that plays audio) when the device has become "silent", will initially result in no sound, then - after few seconds - will make the phone restart (just the phone component, not the xperia) and the sound starts working again.
some times i got also a gwes error, which has made the xperia unresponsive to the touch screen.
btw, i'm very displeased since this device is brand new and was given me by the repair center to replace my xperia (I left it charging battery all night and on the morning was dead...)
I think I'll take it back to the repair center and ask for another replacement...
if you have ms voice command, that could be the cause of your ringer fluctuation.
I had these issues with cooked roms but not the official roms though. recommended using latest official roms with all junks removed.

Volume autosets itself to silent

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.

[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

Phone ring tone is intermittent on incoming calls?

Just got a factory replacement g2 and my ringer is acting really funny... Rings some of the time and even then, will only ring once before it quits ringing (even tho it still is showing that I can answer on my screen). Sometimes it doesn't ring at all. And no, I don't have silent or vibrate mode enabled lol. Any ideas as to why this is happening?
Found it... It was an experimental setting in my "Call Control" app that would "remove partial ring". Just fyi j case anyone else runs into this

Disable silence mode

My question is, whenever I get a call my ringtone goes but when I click on the side buttons (volume up/down or power on/off) the ringtone is silenced. The call is not disconnected but I can't hear my ringtone anymore.
I've searched and I think this is what they call the SILENCE MODE, but I was wondering if I can disable this. Because I have my phone in my pocket and sometimes one of those buttons is pushed by accident which means I don't hear that someone is calling me.
Is it possible to disable this?
