BB Bold :: Only Rings Twice And Just Vibrates In Between On Incoming Call
Jan 1, 2012
When I call my phone I hear 4 rings on the phone I am calling from. However the blackberry itself only rings twice and just vibrates in between. I do want the vibrate option but would like to hear four rings instead of two.
My BB 9700 doesn't catch the first 4-5 rings of an incoming call. It's so bad that incoming Google Voice calls go straight to Google voicemail. If I call myself, I hear 4-5 rings on the calling side before the BB begins to ring. I've changed the ringer settings from vibrate but this seems to do little.
Before this phone I had a Sony Ericcson k850 that had the same problem. Before that I had the SE k550i that did NOT have any problem. If I take that old phone and put my sim card in it now, it still has no ring lag.
So I believe it has something to do with the phone settings within the phone, though this BB is the first phone I bought that came from AT&T (branded probably). Can I change some setting for the phone to ping the towers more often? I don't see anything for slot cycle on the phone...
I have a Blackberry Bold 2 9700. Till 2 weeks ago it worked perfectly, 2 weeks ago while I was sleeping my phone ranged, then I pressed a button(I am not sure but should be the mute button) and suddenly it started to ring only once(then it starts the vibration) while in holster. I looked every setting of it but could not find anything wrong.
This is pretty frustrating - anytime I get an incoming phone call when my 9700 is set to Silent, it still vibrates. I've gone through the profile settings and alerts menus, and they all have vibrate set to OFF under the Silent profile. Battery pull has no effect. Anything else I should try?
I have checked the side button and that's not the problem. I get no sounds with incomming calls or when i receive texts or emails. My phone does vibrate. There is sound when music is playing. I've check all of the settings in 'calls' and 'phone'.
When my phone rings while incoming calls, I am niether recieve income calls nor disconnect it, the whole screen hangs off n tapping of any where on the sscreen dosen't work.
I am unable to set the number of rings on incoming phone calls. I can adjust the count for vibration, but no "count" icon is available in the ring tone section.
I am a new owner of a Blackberry Bold.When I receive a phone call, the phone only rings once and if I don't answer within 4 or 5 seconds I get a "missed call message". I've explored chanding ring tones accessed from the "Loud" icon without success.How do I get the phone to ring for longer like normal mobiles or landlines?
Basically none of my contacts are showing up on my contact list, they seemed to have all been deleted! Also I am not using any filters. As well as this, all my text messages have no contact names assigned to them, just their number. However in my call log, my contacts names come up... And when I click on view contact through the call log, the contact's details all come up!!! For example, one of my contacts, John, is saved on my call log and when I click on view contact through the call log, his address and number comes up, so it is saved. However when he calls, his name doesnt come up...So I'm assuming my contacts are saved on my phone somewhere, but they dont seem to come up on my contact list or text messages!! I recently added my gmail account to my Blackberry.
A few days ago out of no where my phone stopped ringing in calls and text msg.The phone is on loud profile and when i put some ringtone it sais "An illigal ringtone was chosed, please choose another ringtone" - thow it's the same ringtone i used for like a year with this phone.how can i fix it?
I've got a bb9900 and have a plantronics Pro HD device now the headset constantly rings as though an incoming call is coming through. I can still make and receive calls but the ringing continues throughout the call. I've tried using a different headset but in vain.
I recently downloaded the new update for my Blackberry Tour, and I have noticed that my phone is not remembering its settings (im assuming). When I have my phone holstered, it only vibrates twice and does not ring (though I have it set to Always for the ringtone) for my MMS/SMS messages. When its out of holster, it will only do the default text messing sound. I am not sure how to fix this though I have rebooted it twice in attempts for the settings.
The issue I am getting is frequently mobile is getting silent automatically No ringtone is ringing, when I am getting incoming call only display is coming, when I am receiving call I cannot hear anything. So everytime I have to switch off mobile and remove battery and restart the phone again, for sometime everything is working fine but after some hours again getting silent.
My 8330 vibrates after I answer the call. From what I've been told, its extremely loud and annoying from the caller's perspective. I have attempted several hard/soft reboots with no success. This has been occuring since I updated the phone in May.
A few days my Xperia Play stopped working.When I try to call it, it vibrates, but does nothing, the screen does not appear.I've tried the hard reset and nothing too try to connect it on the PC but it does not recognize, to put it in USB it is recognizing that sound that emits recognizing the device, but then makes the noise as if I had removed it.
My friend and I talked Monday and Friday, but Friday she said she had to go for a brief 3 seconds, and then call me back. When she attempted to call me back after about a minute I was able to answer, but as soon as I answered it hung up. I tried calling back several times but on my end I just get a ring, and then 3 beeps -- then it hangs up instantly.
On her end, however, it doesn't start ringing until about 20 seconds in and then it claims to not be able to reach the signal. This is baffling because this started doing this Friday right after she had to get over for a little. I called her earlier in the week (Tuesday) and it was fine, it rang correctly but suddenly we're having this signal issue. I have a Galaxy S5 but hers I have no clue, I know it's an old model -- but it is a smartphone.
