I usually go running and have music playing on my iPhone, and I have it on silent all the time.The problem is just with SMS alerts, when someone calls, I can hear it in the headphones.But when I get a text message, nothing.Is this a bug? Is there something wrong with my phone?
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1
I've tried several things, and may be missing the obvious. When my headset is plugged in, but not in my ears, I never hear any notifications, like mail, or Words for Friends (not on a plane), or an iMessage. It does vibrate, but that's not very noticeable.Is there a setting to make the sound come out of the speakers when notified of something, even if the headset is plugged in?

I keep my phone on silent while in class, and I recently received an audible alert during lecture while on silent. The alert tone was not one that I have set or recognize, and I was only able to view "iPhone alert" before frantically turning it off. Does anyone know what causes these embarrassing audible alerts while in silent mode or know of a way to check past alerts?

I have a need to have text (SMS) messages to wake me, but I dno't want general emails to wake me at night. My iPhone 4s spends most of its life in silet mode, but I need all text messages to be obnoxious so that they will make me. When I had a BLackberry I could set different message notification types for example I can always have text messages loud but could silence anything else. I'm toying aroudn with setting the contact SMS to be the Alarm tone but I'm not sure how this iwll work when I have it in silent...
I've read articles on Google where I'm not the only person seeking this functionality; the most recent article was a doctor that was on-call. While I'm not a doctor, I do work an on-call position.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I have my headphones plugged in, the music plays both in them and still comes out from the phone. This also happens with conversations... When my headphones are plugged in, the sound from the other person speaking comes out loudly from the phone, so everyone can hear it! This does not happen when the headphones are not connected. Then the sound just comes from the phone, and conversations are more quiet.

I have tried different headsets, earplugs and speakers, the problem is the same with all of them. I have tried looking at the settings, both on my phone and other applications. I have also googled it, and I have tried to restart my phone.  And I have checked if they really are inserted correctly. What I can do? I just want to hear my music in piece and keep my conversations for myself.

I also checked this link:Â [URL] .... but it did not solve my problem ...
This has happened without any apparent reason. All settings are as before and I can hear the notification alert on tapping it in the selection mode. It just doesn't appear to trigger when I receive a message.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHave a Atrix HD, about 6 months old. Today I went to make a call using a headset plugged into the headset jack, and nothing happened. The headset was not recgonized and all sound continued to come out the 'speaker'. (Either in "loud" speaker mode, or normal mode.) Tried another headset, same problem. Researched and went through the "check for debris and clean the jack" process with no improvement. Contacted Motorola support and they ended up offering to have it shipped to service center for repair/replace, but that means 7+ days without the phone. So I thought I'd check and see if anyone else has had such a problem.
Anyone else ever have headset jack "failure" like this on an Atrix unit? Oh, it also fails with a music player, or any other sound source, so it appears to be a general unit failure, not specific to any one app/function. I looked all over for some kind of setting to enable/disable the jack, but found nothing of use.
I purchased xperia x10 mini pro and when I plug in the headset provided with the phone after five minutes it automatically starts playing the music....

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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been experiencing a funny problem when charging my N97. I bought my phone in August last year. It had been working fine till now and still is. I really have no complaints when it is concerned to performance and usablity. Initial issues were promptly solved with the firmware updates.
Yesterday night, I found out that I had this problem. When I hooked up my phone with my charger, it did not show any light. I tried to use the charger on another mobile(SAMSUNG) which sports the same USB port as my N97 and it worked ! I also used the samsung charger (though its only 700mA) on my N97 and the charging indicator glowed ! To my surprise, the charger adapter pin that ships with the N97 allowing us to charge the phone with older chargers also allowed me to charge my phone. In short, everything charged my phone(including USB) except the provided charger.
Secondly, of lately the headset has become dogdy. Earlier, even if I ran while having hooked up, the connection was good. Now, even if I move the slightest, the phone looses the connection with the headset and the headset icon disappears. Then I need to plug it out and the plug it in again for about 2-3 times to get the icon to reappear. Now if anyone can explain to me why this is happening and the solution to it, I would be really happy.
the headset icon stays even if i remove the headset. I tried to restart and restore my phone but if i plug in the headset again and removed,the head icon stays again.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm often getting this icon and I can't understand why. It causes problems as sometimes (when the icon is displayed) I can't answer my calls. Does anyone know why this happens and how to stop it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOk, 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...
why is there no headset icon up in the status icon area when you use your wired headset? i've always thought other andoid phones have this.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI recently downlaoded a bunch of ringtones off of the internet, and I also recently added another email account to my tour. I Assigned different alert tones to the 2 email addresses, sms messages, bbm messages, and facebook alerts. I have found that when I get a message, and the assigned alert tone is activated, as soon as that tone turns off anoter different alert is then activated. I cannot figure out why or how to prevent this from happening.
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis is only the second time this has happened since I got the phone a few weeks back.I have all of my messages set to different specific ringtones. My SMS to one, my MMS to one, my email to one etc. So tonight I rcvd an email and instead of playing the tone it always plays that it is set for (one of the generic preloaded notifier tones)... it played my SMS tone (which is an actual song tone) to alert me to my email.
And NO I didnt recieve a new SMS at the same time. That folder is empty and the only red star alert was on my email envelope. Like I said this is very, very few and far between but why would this happen??I went over every one of my sound/alert settings and they are all the way they should be set for my liking.
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?

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?

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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am pretty sure other 3GS users have noticed this before but the is my 1st time ever having a problem with the phone. The battery has almost treated me well and still is. I don't know if this is an issue or not.
So I woke up this morning and I keep my 3GS plugged in over night everyday connected to my MacBook pro and my mbp never goes to sleep so the phone stays getting a charge. I woke up this morning and it was at 98% or 97%. First time ever doing this. Is there a reason for that? I'd appreciat it if someone had an answer. 5 minutes later after using it while still plugged in the charge went back up to 100%
My iPhone thinks my headphones are plugged in, when their not. Their are no stores near me get it checked out, I have blew in it with no luck, removed and put the headphones back in several times. still no luck? it just suddendly started to happen. I didnt even use my headphones?
