i have had my iphone 4s for about a month.in the last coupla days it has started giving me notifications without sounds, not "clicking" when i type, not playing the sound in Internet (not even showing a volume slider.pic attacehed at the bottom),it is not switched to silent, and i can still flick it to silent which still shows the "silent" symbol on screen, and in turn the "unmuted" symbol when i switch back.i also cannot change affect the volume with the side buttons.if i got to "settings" / "sounds", i can hear the ringtone when i adjust the "ringers and alerts" slider, so i know the internal speak is working, but doesn't affect my problem when i go back to the home screen.still totall silence upon incoming calls/texts/emails.i really don't expect this to be happening to a brand new phone, especially one that cost me £200.00 in-store with my renewed 2 year contract.
A few months ago on my 3G, I tried switching my silent switch over and it wouldn't stay silent. The switch does go fully to the left side, but it doesn't do the typical vibrate and show the silent graphic on the phone. BUT if I ever so slightly nudge it to the left it does go to silent but there is no way to keep it in place.
It is almost as if there is something in the way or maybe there is a short?My warranty is no longer valid, but the phone is in perfect condition, has been cased. It makes no sense.
Anybody have any advice, because I would like to sell the phone soon but obviously do not want to sell it without the silent working. I guess I could go to a cell phone repair shop but they charge a $30 diagnosis fee and then apply that to the repair. I do not want to get screwed.Anybody have ANY advice or experience with the switch conking out on them. Any home remedies?
I set my iPhone 4s on silent every day for work. In the last few days any text messages and phone calls have been playing out loud. I've only had the phone two months. It also randomly vibrates for no apparent reason sometimes repeatedly.
Ok so i bought a BB 9630 Tour couple days ago. and i have a question.so i set my girlfriend as a specific ringtone. but i usually use silent when i am at home, and one day she called me and guess what, the phone rang.so here is the question, how do you make the contact ring when it is in like when my normal is activated BUT NOT MY SILENT. cuz when i do silent and when she calls me and my phone rings... it doesnt really make sense cuz i put it as in silent.
Ok, so I'm trying to work out how the silent modes work on my Z3. I'm failing. Â So it seems you can press the volume key and by clicking the 'bell' icon I can scroll through 3 different modes: Loud, Vibrate and Silent. Â Seems simple enough, only none of these modes silence apps or games at all. Â I just want to put my phone on silence/vibrate and know that even apps and games will be silent too. Â I thought I could put into vibrate mode and slide the media volume down to zero and it would rememeber it... then putting back into loud mode would make media slider go back to normal volume?... Nope, I have to change it back to loud mode and remember to slide the media volume back to normal...
It was 5 weeks old and developed a screen issue, went back to repair centre, came back fixed.....All good.....Well no.Now, when the silent icon on the drop down curtain says silent, its not, when you select to change this from the long press of the power on/off button (It gives you a turn device off option, deactivate/activate data, Airplane mode and Silent off and on)The turn on silent mode actually does the opposite?
I have a bb torch and when I set my cell to "Silent" or just "Phone Calls Only" from Select a Profile and I still hear my text, email & facebook alerts.
How can I fix this, so I just hear the phone ringing?
My iphone 3GS will not go on silent mode. Everytime i slide the button, it stays on loud, however it still vibrates. Does it sound like a technical fault?
How can I silence the ringer on my iPhone4 when I have a call and don't want to answer it? The only thing my phone will let me do is "slide to answer", and there is no option showing to no answer when I get call. How can I delete all the messages in my inbox on my iPhone 4?
My iphone got wet in my pocket today and now is permanently stuck on silent. The sound is still working when I check ringtones in settings so that's not damaged and everything else seems to be working....
when the iphone is sleep, and a call comes in, the only option i have is to slide the bar to the right to answer the phone, then i have to press the end button. isnt there a way to stop the call from ringing and let it goto voicemail from sleep mode?
is there a way to make a specif person's phone number ring even if the phone is on silent mode? I have a baby due any time and would like tohave my phone ready anytime.
I just purchased an iPhone 3GS. It came with iOS5 preinstalled. I haven't been able to make it go into silent mode. Is there some setting I need to switch?
In my 1st generation iPhone, all I had to do was flip the switch on the side of the iPhone, so that the orange dot would be seen, and it would display the crossed bell graphic and go into silent mode.
When I flip the switch on the iPhone 3GS, nothing happens. It still makes noise when it rings. I tried toggling the setting in "Sounds" which said "Change with Buttons", but the switch still doesn't work. Toggling this setting seems to affect whether the "speaker" graphic is on screen when I press the volume buttons.
It seems that there is no way I can get the ringer switch to do anything. Is there anyway to make this work? Or have I received a defective unit? =S
My iphone 3gs keeps switching between silent and regular modes when I have the silent button depressed. It seems to have a mind of it's own. I'm currently using ios 5.1, but I don't know if this is a software problem or it's something with the phone itself.
IVe been getting robot sales calls many times a day. Im on the do not call list and I've filed several complaints but the calls keep
COming. The calls come from 4 or 5 distinct (out of state) numbers. I thought I might save them to my address book and assign a "no ring" to them. But there's no option for that. I'm stuck with hearing some kind of ring if I use that method
my phone (4S) will not go into silent mode when it is switched onto silent. It sometimes goes back and forth between being on and being on silent. If I tap the upper left corner it goes crazy between the silent mode and sound mode?
just realised the silent button on my 2 week old Iphone 4 has gottin loser and loser to toggle.what gives? i remeber on the 3g after a few months its so easy to bump it in your pocket and turns the thing to silent. what to do?
so my friends iphone button for the silent/ringer popped off, his iphone 3g is over a year old and the button looked like it fell off, he can use his fingernail to move it up and down but thats really digging ur nail in, its like the cap popped off or something, think we can take it back to apple to get it fixed?
I have read that Auto Silent is comparable with Ios4. But I am having no luck making it work. I have reinstalled it but nothing. Never get am active profile. I live this app. Had it on my 3GS and have upgraded to the new iPhone. I hate losing one utility app I relied on
So this just recently started happening. When I slide the switch down (thus putting the phone on vibrate) it'll freak out and go back and forth between loud and vibrate. Touching the screen or the phone causes it to switch back and forth as well (i'll vibrate to signal). The other day the physical switch showed it was on vibrate but it was audible and playing sounds. The switch isn't actually broken off, and I don't think it's a software problem. Has anyone else had this issue? Phone hasn't been dropped and doesn't have any water damage
