Alarm is not silent in silent mode

Hi,
I have a z3 Compact. After I updated it to 5.01, when I setup an alarm, it ring in silent mode. Does silent mode means keep silent? Are there any solution?
Note: There is no "Alarm in silent mode" option anymore after updated.  
Solved!

@alexdon
I never got my alarms on SW3 and actually I'm happy it doesn't
It takes me like a couple of snoozes to wake up, that's why I set my alarms 30 minutes earlier than normal. If the watch was taking alarms its battery would completely be drained by the time I wake up!
On another note: Setting your SW3 to silent will set the phone with it. I have a mixed feeling about this. As I needed an option to silence notifications on my watch but not he phone, I think that the new theatre mode does this partially. In the meanwhile, it's still usefull to put ur phone to silent mode without getting it out of your pocket in a meeting or so.

  • Do not disturb .silent mode. Alarms

    Please do not reply if you are going to have mini debates I would just like straight info or I will stop using this service it's REALLY ANNOYING ok sorry .. Does the alarm clock still go off if in do not disturb mode also when I answer a contact will I need to remember to press the top button again for it to go back into dndmode because I answered my girlfriend and put the phone down went to sleep and got woken up by a random text I have it just on contacts only and no schedule one more thing because k switched on the silent button because of this will my set alarm go off in silent mode..

    Thanks for first part, the other part was the schedule mode is switched off and not really relevant just letting people know it was so was more informative .. The real question was my girlfriend phoned me up when I had dnd on which was fine cap I allowed for that when I put contacts only but when I put the phone back down after her call I fell asleep and a random text woke me I thought I would have had to switch dnd off for it to not work but just answering a contact seems to deactivate it . I think I have to click the top button after any call in this mode for dnd to activate seemed odd though am I right

  • Ipad air 2 there's no silent mode like the other iPads ?? the button that does it does not exist on the iPad air 2 what does replace it??

    ipad air 2 there's no silent mode like the other iPads ?? the button that does it does not exist on the iPad air 2 what does replace it??

    hi the older button could be set to either "force portrait mode" or "silent mode". now you can do both in the iOS control center (swipe from the bottom of the screen), so the need for a button isn't needed anymore.

    It happens when oracle.install.db.config.starterdb.type is set to TRANSACTION_PROCESSING.
    Apparently "TRANSACTION_PROCESSING" and "GENERAL_PURPOSE/TRANSACTION_PROCESSING" are not valid types, even though the response template file and the response file generated via OUI list the following:

  • How can I change the settings such that the phone does not vibrate when I receive a message in silent mode, but vibrates for calls?

    I'd like the phone to vibrate when I receive a call when it is in silent mode (as it already does) but I'd like it to not vibrate when I receive a text in silent mode. I know how to set both (calls and texts) to not vibrate in silent mode, or choose no vibration for texts when loud or silent, but not what I just mentioned. Thanks.

    Try this - Settings > Sounds > Text Tone > Vibration (at the top) > None.
    Edit - just read the last part of your post closer and I'm not aware of such an option.

  • Alarm sounds even in silent mode!

    Hi,
    I have a 3GS. I'm a bit hard of hearing, and I have an alarm set for evening hours. Yesterday I was in a movie theater. I was careful to flip the switch to silent mode, but the alarm went off anyway. LOUD, because I don't hear too well.
    I silenced it as fast as I could, and the snooze button was the first button I could get to. Then put in the password to make sure it was reset. I put the phone back in my pocket, and the darn thing went off again! The button I pushed was snooze, and evidently you can't silence it after you pressed snooze?
    In the manual, I found out that the alarm pays no attention to the silent switch. What nonsense is this? You give us a silent switch and then have a permanent feature of the phone totally ignore it? It was like a bomb went off in that theater, and the second time around was 10 times worse.
    Somebody please tell me there's a way around this. I browsed some of the other alarm clocks, but they don't seem to care about this problem.
    I need the loud alarm so I can hear it, and I need the silent switch even more.
    Thanks.

    I'm sorry, but the only way around this is to turn the alarm off when you don't need it, like in a theater, in church, etc.
    Some like an alarm that can't be silenced, some don't. You can send Apple your preference here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • When phone is on silent mode, my vibrate feature is not working....any suggestions?

    When I put my phone on silent mode, the vibrate feature is not longer working....any suggestions?

    If it's a software issue and your settings are correct then the next step would be to restore your phone to new. Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings If it's the switch itself then try moving it back and forth several times. Perhaps there's a bit of pocket lint or dirt preventing a good contact. If that doesn't work then you'll have to take the phone into an authorized Apple repair centre or Apple store and have it checked out.

  • DBCA in silent mode gives "template does not exist" error

    We successfully created a database using the DBCA in silent mode like this:
    dbca -silent -responseFile dbca.rspThen, attempting to create a second database on the same machine with a slightly different response file, we get the following error:
    dbca -silent -responseFile dbca.rsp2
    Template General Purpose does not exist. Please specify an existing template for database creation.The "General Purpose" template was used in the original database creation. It does exist. No logfile is created. Any ideas what could be causing this?

    We never did get to the bottom of the mysterious "template does not exist" error, but went with a solution that is better:
    1. we used the already-existing database to create a clone template:
    dbca -silent -createCloneTemplate -sourceDB OLD_SID -sysDBAUserName sys
       -sysDBAPassword XXXX -templateName old_sid_copy.dbc
      -maintainFileLocations true
      -datafileJarLocation /local/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/assistants/dbca/templates (Note the use of the -maintainFileLocations switch)
    2. edited the template file, replacing all instances of OLD_SID with NEW_SID
    /local/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/assistants/dbca/templates/old_sid_copy.dbc
    3. create the clone using the new template
    dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName old_sid_copy.dbc
      -gdbname NEW_SID.MYHOST.COM -sid NEW_SID
      -datafileJarLocation /local/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/assistants/dbca/templates
      -responseFile NO_VALUE -characterset WE8ISO8859P1

  • 5310 loud speaker is not silent in "silent mode"

    Hi,
    I just got a 5310 (FW 5.91) and love it. One annoying querk I would like to get resolved.
    When I have the phone in silent mode (and have set all sounds to "off" in the silent profile), the loud speaker still plays music when the "play" button for the music player accidentally gets pressed. I can lower the volume to the lowest level, but I cannot silence the loud speaker.
    When in silent mode, it seems that you should be able to silence the loud speaker.
    Thanks for any help.
    Eric

    Silent profile is designed only to silence call functions, it dates back to the days when phones were only phones.
    Perhaps it is something to be reviewed now that so many models have multimedia buttons on the phone itself. I'm not familiar with that model, does the keypad lock perhaps deactivate the music buttons too?

    Any can help me. Thanks in advance

    Hi ,
    If you are facing issue during silent mode install , you can do installation in below manner also ,
    Make a tar ball of installation directory from some other server.
    e.g. If you have installed OMA in server A in /agent/OMA directory then make a tar ball OMS.tar.
    scp the tar file on server B and then extract it.
    After extraction , you only need to make changes in $AGENT_HOME/sysman/config/emd.properties file.
    Just replace server A with Server B in this file and do the agent discovery again using
    You can use <AGENT_HOME>/bin/agentca -d
    to rediscover the targets for this agent
    Regards

  • IPhone Will Not Power Off or Go Into Silent Mode

    Yesterday I discovered that I had my phone switch flipped to Silent Mode, and my phone was still making the General Sounds and Still Ringing. No matter what I do I can't get it to Vibrate instead of ring.
    Also it will not power off, no matter how long I hold the button nothing happens, it wont even lock. I tried performing a hard rest by holding the Home Key & Power Button, but instead of reseting the Voice Control pops up and my iPod starts playing.
    Any Help Is Greatly Appreciated ♥

    - Try another cable.
    - Try on another computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
