Nokia Lumia :: Easier Way Of Putting 800 On Silent - Any Shortcut?
May 26, 2012
Is there any easier way of putting the nokia lumia 800 on silent instead of having to go into Settings -> Ringtones+Sounds ??? I asked this because i think its really silly that on the top right hand corner you can only change the setting from ring+vibrate to vibrate and not Silent!
In the last week or so my phone keeps putting itself into silent mode, so it doesn't ring when someone is calling me or make a sound when I get messages. This is a nuisance as I keep missing calls. The only way that I can get the phone to ring is to restart the phone, however it will then randomly set itself back into silent mode at some later point in time. When I go into sounds and notifications it will not allow me to increase the ringer volume.
Following the update to my sony z2, putting my phone on silent causes my sony smartwatch 3 to disable all notifications. I do not want this to happen! I want my phone on silent (not vibrate) but my smartwatch on vibrate and cannot figure out how to do this.
I hope this hasn't been asked before; if it has and I searched on the wrong keywords, my apologies.Is it possible to set the Lumia 710 up so that it ends a current call when I press the button on top of the phone to put it into standby mode?
I've been caught a couple of times when leaving voicemail messages by the fact that I press the button, the 'phone plays a "ker-lick" noise and the screen goes black; but when I switch it back on again, the connection's still open and the call is still on-going.
Normally, this isn't an issue, as the call ends when the other party puts their phone down, or the voicemail reaches the end of the available message time; but I recently called someone who's got an honest-to-goodness answerphone on the shelf next to their phone, and it was happy to leave the connection open for well over an hour. As a result, I've just received a bill from my provider costing two-and-a-half times as much as usual - money I can scarce afford as I'm currently "resting" between jobs.
It would be neat if switching the phone off (or, at least, putting the phone on standby) ended the current call.
I cant get any sound from my Lumia 800! Music, videas and ringtones are all silent. The ringer is on loud but still no sound is coming through. Last time this happened I reset it and it worked but its done it again. I cant keep resetting my phone as I lose all my downloads.
I recently downloaded a couple of apps of my Lumia 800 and I noticed that the app list view has been rearranged in to groups by the first letter of the apps name. Although I find it functional and overall it looks well, I'd like to know if this can be turn off. The only downside I see is that I find myself scrolling down a for longer period of time.
I just switched to the lumia 800 for few days the ringtone was working properly but for past 2 days the ringtone automatically stops playing after 1 or 2 sec when a call rings especially when the phone is kept flat against any table, bed or hand.
Does anyone know if there is a shortcut to change my Blackberry 9520 profiles? I want a quick button that puts my phone onto silent. I've owned a Blackberry Bold 9000 before and it has it's own dedicated silent key. Is there such key/shortcut for Storm2 9520?
i have Nokia 1520 just i don't know some how my phone doesn't unlock itself after putting the correct password nothing show and u cant delete.other button like camera or volume or start button or to see notification all work but screen wont unlock.
I got an unlock code for my 1020 from ATT to use with local sim card on my holiday, but can you unlock the phone without putting in a different sim and waiting for the popup about entering the code? I want to make sure it works as it would suck finding an issue with the unlocking once I am abroad.
The shortcut widget for having shortcuts for apps in the symbian 3 or symbian Anna platform is made for having four shortcuts and nothing less. If at all, one doesn't assign a shortcut to it, still there's an icon that is shown as default when nothing is assigned.Here's what you do...1. Download the app called vacuum.sis from the web. Try this link...www.mediafire.com/?a01dw4w4azasjmn2. Install the app anywhere in your phone, phone memory, mass memory or memory card.3. Now go to homescreen and press and hold to go into edit mode.4. Tap the desired location for adding the shortcut bar and select it from the list of widgets available.5. Once the shortcut bar is added, tap it and go into the settings for adding the shortcuts to it.6. Now if you want to add only one app in the shortcut bar, select the desired location from one to four and add the app. In the rest of the locations, add the vacuum app.7.
Now close the shortcut and return to home screen. You should see only one shortcut in the shortcut bar. This way you can place any one app at any location on the grid with app.What's actually vacuum app? Its a dummy app which when installed, results in an app which doesn't do anything on installation and has a transparent icon. So an unknowing tap on the shortcut also will do nothing. Tada! You've a shortcut bar with just one app... Its customizable between one and four apps. This has been tested and works in my Nokia C7 with Anna. So should work in other symbian
How do i get music onto my X6 from my PC? I've installed Ovi Suite, tried all the updates for phone and different connection settings(mass media, pc suite etc) but my PC and Ovi both say i don't have a memory card installed? I'm not good with phone and tech in general, but doesn't the x6 16gb have 16gB of memory??? How do i get my PC to recognise this so i can transfer from my PC to my phone?
Does the Icon have Restart option? Silence (Vibrate) option? If you hold down the Power button it says to slide down to Power Off. How do I restart the phone? Is there quick way to put the phone on silence (vibrate) option?
When I have to text and I have to input a series of numbers in a row I have to press the alt key every single time. Is their an easier way to enter numbers?
Can anyone help me on putting my Hotmail calendar onto the my Nokia 5630XM?
I know that this is an extremely idiotic question but looking online, there are web pages on how sync between Google calendar, but no sign of hotmail!
I saved my calendar onto the computer and I got an iCal(ics) file and apparently, nokia PC suite don't accept this file type! I tried to use sync, but the only half the calendar came out correctly while some meetings came out as saying tentative or nothing.In some parts of the calendar, there are two meetings at once, this displays fine on outlook, but will this affect the view on the phone?
Your typing text and you want to go back a few words previous, its difficult to push close to the word to get the cursor to flash next to the word or letter your trying to fix, does anybody know an easier way to get to the word or letters your trying to add or repair. My cell phone has a rollerball that gets you there quickly, but my xoom is much harder to fix text
I recently bought a used N8 to replace my old one that got stolen, although it works perfectly, I've had a couple of occasions where it has switched itself off overnight, & I cannot switch back on until putting on charge, despite the phone being well charged the day before.Is it possible that an app I've downloaded could be causing the battery to discharge overnight?
I received a replacement phone yesterday and the screen was amazing. I type faster on my replacement then my computer. Problem is the silver molding was all rough as if someone forgot to replace the molding. So I called it in. My 2nd replacement is brand new. The screen is very similiar in touch except I have to push down a little harder. My question is, does anyone know how to make it click easier? Also the screen is not as, "white," as the replacement and original. Thanks for any help...
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.
Is there a way to assign a specific ringtone to 25 out of 100 of my contacts without doing it manually one by one? Is there a quick way to assign them to a group and just assign that group the ringtone?
Is there a way to do it on Outlook so I can do it easier than on my little BB? I assigned about 100 pictures to contacts on Outlook and since the 2 sync, all the pictures showed up with the right contacts. This saved me soooooo much time...I was wondering if there was a way to do similar with ringtones
I can renew my contract and I'm able to get a C903, C902 or W705 for free. I actually want the C901 GreenHeart, but I'm not really keen on paying extra money for it. Maybe by the end of the month it's price will come down so that I can get it free, but else I'll have to choose between those two.
I'm not really looking after a daily phone, just something for my collection and to use occasionally. I know the differences between the phones, but the thing I'd really like to know is which one would be easier to trade for some other SE phone? Anyone any idea on that, or even an offer yet?
