IOS 6 do not disturb, repeated calls feature implemented badly

I tested the "do not disturb" feature. Apparently, it hangs up an incoming call almost immediately. This renders the "repeated calls" portion of the "do not disturb" feature almost useless. This is because a caller is most likely to call a second time almost immediately if the first call gets terminated so quickly. Apple should allow the caller to continue to hear the ringing tone while keeping the callee's iPhone silent.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • IOS 6: Do Not Disturb and Clock app

    Hi all,
    Does the Do Not Disturb feature stop the default Clock app from sounding an alarm?
    Thanks in advance!

    DND apparently means "do not disturb me with phone calls or notifications". Alarms are viewed as being so important, they sound even with DND on and even with your Mute switch on silent.
    I don't know of any way to keep alarms from sounding except turning the phone off. Be careful when you're at the library or an important lecture or a symphony concert.
    And by the way, if DND is turned ON and your phone is not locked (for example, you're running a travel clock app all night) phone calls and notifications will come thru and are NOT silenced. DND only works when the phone is locked with the screen off. Some people think that's great; others feel it needs improvement.

  • HT5463 ios 6 do not disturb favorites not working

    i cant get it to work..

    This is not working correctly for me either.  When I have it set to allow favorites, favorites do NOT ring.  Had to switch the setting to allow everyone.  Going to try the new contact group solution to see if that works.

  • Transaction FBL1N not displaying offset account  after implementing BADI

    hi everyone
    I have followd the SAP note 112312 to implement a BADI  FI_ITEMS_CH_DATA in a BTE to make the fields Offset account to display
    When I went into debug mode, the table in the BADI is well populated with the offset account - gkont and gkart but on the report
    the fields are not getting displayed
    The ALV list which is displayed is taking the structure RFPOSXEXT and this structure does contain gkont and gkart but the report is without the 2 fields
    Can anybody help for this issue?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi,
    Perhaps it is related with ALV buffers. Read Note 122975 - Resetting buffering of ALV field catalog for a futher information.

  • TS4510 Do not disturb feature

    I turn on the do not disturb feature but my phone still rings normally.
    Why advertise it and have it on your products?
    What is being done wrong?

    I think your Favorites List is automatically set as an exception list for Do Not Disturb, so their calls will ring through even while your screen is locked (but other alerts are still suppressed).  You can go to:
    Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb > Allow Calls From > and see if there's a group enabled.
    You can set any self-made group, your favorites list, or your whole contacts list as exceptions. 
    This could be why your phone is ringing even while the screen is locked. Hope this helps.

  • How do I remove silence feature in do not disturb

    I need to lock the 4S so to not butt dial, accidentally send messages etc when phone is in pocket, messenger bag.  When I do this notifications, i.e calendar reminders are not audible.  Do not disturb is not enabled.  My only choice at bottom of DND screen in SILENCE area is 'ALways' or "only When IPhone is locked"  How do I disable this?

    You stated that DND was not enabled.
    Therefore any settings in DND are irrelevant.
    There is no Never in the Silence section of DND because it defeats the purpose of DND.
    I think you are misunderstanding DND.

    Essentially turning off DND is the Never Silence option.

    Is your iPhone locked when the calls come through?
    As this paragraph from the iPhone User Manual states, the iPhone must be locked for "Do Not Disturb" to be in effect:
    Turn off all notifications: Go to Settings and turn on Do Not Disturb. When it’s turned on and iPhone is locked, all notifications and calls are silenced, but alarms will still sound. You can set the following options in Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb:
    Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb: Set the starting and ending hours for when you don’t want to be disturbed. iPhone turns on Do Not Disturb during these hours each day.
    Allow some phone calls during Do Not Disturb: When Do Not Disturb is on, calls are silently sent to voice mail. To allow some callers to ring through, tap Allow Calls From. You can allow calls from your Favorites list or other Contacts groups you define. For information about Favorites, see Chapter 25, Contacts, on page 100.
    Allow persistant callers to ring through: Turn on Repeated Calls. If the same caller (based on their Caller ID) calls you twice within three minutes, iPhone will ring.

  • Do not disturb

    In iOS6 the do not disturb otion was working fine. But in iOS7 the call rings even if the phone is Do Not Disturb mode.Helpless.. :/

    Also, there is currently an issue with Do Not Disturb (and Call Block) in iOS 7 on the Rogers network in Canada. It's related to Rogers Name Display feature.
    If you are on Rogers or Fido, you may wish to check out this thread for more details and a temporary solution.

  • My iPad does not ring when locked.  How can I take off the tick in the silence do not disturb

    In the do not disturb box is a tick for silence when iPad is locked.  Therefore I do not know when I am being called as there is no ringing sound.  Can anyone help please.

    If you change Settings > Do Not Disturb > Allow Calls From (e.g. to allow from 'Everyone') then it should still ring if the iPad is locked.
    For the 'Only While iPad is locked' and 'Always' options on that screen, one of those two has to be ticked.

  • How can I change "do not disturb" 's auto reply message?

    When I turn on do not disturb in my iphone 5, then when someone
    call there is auto-reply that “the number you dial is busy now”. How can I
    change this auto- reply message? Could I change to “the number you dial is
    power off”  ?

    What do you want to do? If you turn on Do Not Disturb, this is the result - your phone is busy. Turn off Do Not Disturb or allow those callers you want to get through in  Settings > Do Not Disturb >  Allow Calls From.

  • Is it true that music pauses when a phone call comes in even when the ios6 'do not disturb' feature is activated?

  • In do not disturb option what does repeated calls option mean

    I had been facing problem of second Incoming call not received.
    But when I went to do not disturn option, I found repeated calls option was enabled.
    This says that if enable a second call from the same person within 3 mins will not be silenced.
    What does this mean.
    Is it related to my problem ...... What should be the status of repeated calls.....
    Also explain the silence feature in settings option >> Always and only while Iphone is locked.....
    Thanks

    Please explain what you mean by "second incoming call not received". Do you mean that if you are on a call and another call comes in to your phone you do not have the option of seeing it or answering it?
    This means that when you terminate the call to the Iphone user within say less than 3 mins you get to hear the annoucement that your phone you are trying to reach is out of network coverage area....
    And then you try third call it matures....
    Thanks

  • DO Not Disturb Feature is not working

    Fellow IPHONE users ----
    Anybody else having the same issue? I'm trying to use it on my 4s.
    Thanks

    When I first tested the Do Not Disturb function, I discovered two ways it could seem like it was not working. One, as mentioned above, was that my screen was not locked. The other was the settings under Settings/Notifications/Do Not Disturb. If your settings allow calls from favorites and then you try to test the feature from a phone in your favorites list, it will not block the call. Similarly, if you are testing multiple times and the allow repeated call option is set, the call will also get through.
    And one other observation. All of the material I have seen describes the action of the Do Not Disturb function as silencing the notifications. For incoming calls it does more than that; it actually rejects the call so the caller goes straight to voicemail rather than just ringing silently.
