Xperia Z3 :: Ring Notification Has Become Very Soft
Jul 3, 2010
Out of a sudden, the ring notification has become very very very soft. Tried changing ring tones, restarted phone and checked all sound and notification settings to no avail. Volume of the ringtone is load when tested in the sound and notification setting menu.
I have a Xperia Z3 compact, all working well. but when i get a message the tone or sound only goes once, then stops,, is there a way to make it ring again at intervals ????? my old phone did this, so if i missed the sound the first time may hear it later,, so i didnt have to keep checking if i had any messages... have tried all the tones to see if easier to hear,, but they still only sound once,
This morning my phone locked up and then restarted itself multiple times. It took a few tires to turn back on before it was fully able to. Now that its on, there are no soft keys or notification bar.
Also the screen will not turn on for more than a second or two and the wallpaper has gone away. When I am able to select something I get stuck in that app and can't get out of it without turning my phone off.
Only update that I got recently was the Hangouts one. Outside of a factory wipe, not sure what to do at this point.
My phone won't notify me of a text anymore. I haven't even had the phone for a week, and it's driving me insane. I've tried turning notifications on/off on Verizon Message+ (which is what I use for text), and I've tried changing the notification tone, too. For some reason, it still won't work. No notification light, no ring. I have to open my phone to see the number of missed texts next to the icon.
I really love my new Verizon LG4 coming from a Samsung S3. It picks up signal clearly where I had complete drops on S3. However, one thing has really annoyed me and I need to find a way to live with this.
The ring sound and text notification sounds are either both ON or both OFF. I have to leave the ringer on for various reasons, but then I get the text notifications all night long. Various volume apps I downloaded did not separate out the sounds. This is a really bad idea to tie these together.
I have tried playing with Priority Interruptions, but can't quit seem to get the phone to ring and the texts to be silent.
I've noticed that when my HTC One is fully charged during the day, it plays my ringtone to notify that it is fully charged. How do i turn this off? Its not located in the sound settings!
My phone only makes noise when someone is calling, it doesn't play music out loud or ring when I get a text. It also has nothing to do with the mute switch on the side, I've flipped it on and off and nothing works.
About 6 weeks ago I went out, dropped my phone and the next day I noticed the ringer wasn't working. I pulled the battery after I had no idea what else to do and the ringtones/notifications worked again. However about every 5 or 6 days the same thing happens and I have to pull the battery. I also noticed that when I check the ringtone options whenever the ringtones fail the BB says "invalid ringtone, please choose anther ringtone"could it be that the loudspeaker is loose? It's not busted because it works most of the time and a battery pull seems to solve the issue.Just now I had to pull the battery again to get the ringtones sounding.
I've had my Motorola Electrify since the middle of November last year and didn't really notice it too much for atleast a couple months, but recently if I dont reboot my phone for more than 2 days, and sometimes sooner than that, it will stop playing any notification sounds and just now it didn't even play any ring sound at all when I just received a call. It vibrated, but didn't play any sound. This is getting frustrating. I have even factory reset my phone a few weeks ago because of other things, and it still hasn't fixed this issue. In fact it seems to be getting worse. At first it was SOME notification sounds after 4 or 5 days not rebooting, now its all notification AND ring sounds after just a couple days. I have the app "Tasker" installed and have sounds associated with some profiles, but don't really think thats the problem because its not just sounds associated with the app, its system events too, like receiving a call, etc.
When I record a Snapchat video while talking and ecord a voice message , the playback can't be heard. I barely heard anything even thought the volume is set to the max. This happened when I've updated to Lollipop.
I have a Nexus 5 32gb for 1 year and 3 months. Since last week my cellphone starts to ring randomly (the ringtone of my alarm) with no notification on screen. It only goes off if I press hold or pressing the screen if it is unlocked. I have put all volumes to zero, set the priority to No interruptions but it still rings randomly (my house, my class, everywhere).
My camera on-screen buttons disappear whenever its trying to focus. It gives me a hard time to take pictures. This happens regardless of the settings or mode the camera is on. Because of this I was forced to use Google camera.
I was wondering if was possible to unlock phone (by standby - black screen) simply doin a soft touch (just accosting our finger, a soft touch on button) rather than touch by a click or long press it to unlock it, pushing it ?
It's also for preserving our power button
I think that accosting our finger sweetly to the sensor fingerprints could be better for our experience and for our HW power button
Ring/Notification tones randomly change after media rebuild
I had to rebuild my media library to get rid of some "ghost " image thumbnails in the gallery. I deleted all data associated with Media Storage and rebooted.
This totally hosed up my Ring/Notification tones. Why should a rebuild of the media library make a difference?
i want to know whether the xperia z5 front camera has the same issue when taking pictures from the front camera like some sort of a "Soft skin" effect, when you are looking at the camera its fine but once you take the picture it looked awful in my z1.
I have been using the Z2 for some time now and totally in love with the hardware design and the nicely laid out interface. Though sony decided to discriminate the Indian users by not giving the noise cancellation head or the LTE model ....considering its 50K phone here ... which is not cheap
Aside from what mentioned above there are 2 more things that’s bother me...
1. There are some bloatware on the phone provided by sony but there are no options to uninstall them. 2. While on call nothing else works the soft keys gets disabled, you can’t type a msg the keyboard doesn’t come up. This was how it was in my Z as well. In the forum some people mentioned that it got resolved in the 4.3 update, however i don’t think it is yet.
the problem is when I turn off the soft skin option but still gave me the same result. I also tried the other camera apps on playstore but nothing change then I reallize it came from the phone itself.especially the front camera.
Soft keys doesn't work but some time its work i have to touch again and again to click home and back button , when i open camera application even i cant go back because there bottom dots not clickable and not working on my mobile, i factory reset my mobile using pc compaing too but still i have that problem, and chekced using safe mode.
Ever since the latest updates, when using the Contacts App and the Xperia International Keyboard, the soft keyboard does not close itself when the user makes a selection inside the app.
HOW TO REPRODUCE: Open Contacts AppClick on search icon (magnifiying glass)Soft keyboard opens -> start typing contact nameClick on contact name in the filtered list
EXPECTED RESULTS: Upon clicking on the contact name in the filtered list, the soft keyboard should automatically close and the contact's info page should open.
I'M SEEING INSTEAD: Upon clicking the contact name in the filtered list, the contact's info page is opening, but the soft keyboard is also staying open covering up the contact's info page.
WORKAROUND: The only workaround I can see for now is to hit the soft "back" button (which appears as a "down" button when the keyboard is open) to close the soft keyboard before actually selecting the contact from the list. Then select the contact from the list.
If you select the contact before hitting the "back" (or "down") button, and try hitting the "back" (or "down") button with the contact page already opened, instead of closing the keyboard it will close the contacts page and the keyboard will stay open (unless you close the keyboard first, you'll be stuck in an infinite loop of selecting and closing the contact, and the keyboard would be open the whole time).
I have made a screen recording to showcase this bug in action: [URL] ....
I am using a ringtone that came installed on the phone. I have vibrate set to off and I am in the loud profile. When someone calls me, my phone rings once and then there is a long delay before it rings again. My daughter has the Bold and she uses the same ringtone and doesn't have this problem. I have Sprint and she has AT&T if that matters. Thank you for any help you can give me.
My X10 does not ring on incoming calls for the last week. I also found that when I checked the ringer volume it sometimes is on silent without me having adjusted it. But even with ringer volume on full it still does not ring. Text & notification alerts are fine...its aaudible...only incoming call dont ring. I`ve done a repair/reload of Android 2.1 & it worked for only a few hours.Should I just go get another one?
I am using Xperia 10 mini pro. It was working fine but all of a sudden the phone is not ringing when a call comes in. Also I cannot hear sound when I am trying to play music.The ringer volume is high but still cannot hear anything. I tried doing a factory reset, but this did not solve my problem.
I have a problem with my twitter notifications, this just happens with the twitter notifications, not with other notifications.Although I select any ringtone, when it's a twitter notification it doesn't ring! (it doesn't sound!)I did a default restore and I repaired my phone with Sony Companion.
Upgraded software to 5.1.1 and since then the ring volume turns itself fully down and won't let me adjust. All other volumes are working fine. Will work for a little while after turning off and on again.
This is my first time with xperia phones. Silent/viration/ring. Toggle is missing in xperia z5. To go in vibration mode we have to press vol down key....
