Nokia 3600 Slide ringing volume low

Whenever i choose the ringing tone from my list with mp3's and i get the 'preview' of the song, the volume is great, is loud so i can hear it (the phone has a speaker on the back). And also i can hear the mp3 loud when i play it with my media player.
But when someone calls me, the volume is lower than what i heart during the preview (the ringing tone is set to max), it also starts sort of ascending even if the ascending tone option is not activated. (it starts by using his regular (don't know where it is) speaker, then moves on that big speaker from the back that i was telling about).
I realise that this might be just the way the phone works but i thought maybe i can somehow make the ringing tone as loud as when i play files with my media player.
I honestly can't hear the phone when i'm in a louder area or when i'm sleeping. Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Most recent Nokia phones will automatically be in "ascending mode" if you choose the very highest volume (meaning that the ring will begin quiet and increase to maximum).
If you are not hearing your tone well enough choose the second highest volume setting so that it starts at the set volume instead of working up to it? Also, the choice of tone is also important - if you are often in noisy places or carry your phone in a pocket or bag, then you may need to ignore personal favourites like the tune you first danced to wit your partner and just go for something noticably loud from the first note.

  • Nokia 3600 slide --- how to manually change networ...

    I just purchased a Nokia 3600 slide and want to set the phone so I can manually select the network.  I have a SIM card through a company called eKit and while I am in France, I need to be able to manually select the network with the best coverage.  The phone automatically selects a network with little to no service in this area.  I used to own a razor and there was a function where you could set the network manually.  Can anyone help me locate this function on the Nokia?
    Thanks.

    try menu/settings/phone settings/then operator settings select manual rather than automatic.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

  • Nokia 3600 Slide Playlists + Firmware Updates

    When I update my Nokia 3600 Slide with new firmware, my playlists no longer work, or show up in the media player. The gallery doesn't support viewing them. I don't want to have to rebuild my 70 song playlist again (I have over 500 songs on my phone). Is there a way to get the old playlist working?

    probably not, should have done a backup of the playlist to your computer, as firmware updates clear all data on the phone.

    I have just brought a nokia 3600 slide .. I have selected the plum theme and selected the slide animation on ..but unfortuantely i do not get any slide sound .. i only get the animation when i open and close the phone ..do i have to use another theme .. can i use any sound for the opening and closing of the slide phone .. where do i get slide sounds from or animations .. plz help its driving me round the wall

    as pointed out there is some themes avalable that do give a tone but these are specially built themes a had one myself on the 5610/6500 slide i got them from zedge maybe your phone is not equipped for the theme in question
    the slide animation is just a picture that comes up when you open and close the slide
    look at the following
    Select Menu > Settings > Display and from the available options:● Wallpaper — to add a background image for the standby mode● Active standby — to activate, organise, and personalise the active standby mode● Standby font colour — to select the font colour for the standby mode● Navigation key icons — to display the icons of the scroll key shortcuts in thestandby mode when active standby is off● Notification details — to display details in missed call and message notifications● Transition effects — to activate a smoother and more organic navigationexperience● Slide animation — to display an animation and sound a tone when you open orclose the slide● Screen saver

  • Nokia 3600 slide ringtones too quiet

    I had a Nokia 6100 until a week ago when I upgraded to 3600 slide (which is awsome, btw). However, ringtones and alerts on my new phone are irritably quiet. Consequently, I miss calls.
    I want the loud rintones from my old 6100 back. How can I get them on the 3600 slide?

    Hi,
    Please do these couple of steps - It might improve things slightly:
    Select Menu > Settings > Profiles > Personalise — to personalize the profile.
    or
    Select Menu > Settings > Tones > Ringing volume> then set it to the maximum value. Then just save it.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, it might the phone really behaves like that. Some Nokia phone really does have a quiet ringers - like the Nokia 5310 (No offense meant!)
    Hope this helps =)

  • Nokia N97 Mini - Ringer Volume Control Bug?

    Is it normal to not be able to change ringer volume when you're on the main screen, simply by toggling the volume up and down toggle button on the side of the phone? Seems like a very basic feature that was on early 2000s Nokia models, but not in this one.
    THanks

    Yes this is normal. Ringer volume is set from the profile settings.The volume buttons control volume for various functions and applications so toggling them when you are using that application will only affect the volume setting for that function. Example, toggling during a call changes the speaker volume. Toggling them when you are in Maps changes the voice guidance volume. Never tried this but you could try toggling them as the phone is ringing to see if it changes the ringing volume.

  • Ring volume low & people cant hear me very well even on speaker???

    Howdy, I have a iphone 4 version 4.3.5 (not sure how to find operating system..) I am having problems with the volume. The incoming call ring is really low, I have increased it to max in the settings with no luck and people are finding it hard to hear me? I just hooked it up to itunes to sync. I am not sure if there is a problem with the speakers at the bottom - how do I take the back or bottom off - maybe it needs a clean out. or Is there a download update?
    I am not very iphone savy so any assistance wld be appreciated.
    Cheers

    The fact that it works with Facetime means your microphone works.
    You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

    I am using Nokia Ovi Suite 2.0.2.42 and although the contact address appear in the Ovi software they do not transfer to the phone. Everything else seems to!

    It's the basic log(press green button on standby) that shows the last occurrence. The one you get by going through the menu to the log and pressing the right button as stated by Jimmy above will have a lot more detail. I don't understand the reasoning behind this one log with everything seems a lot simpler to me
    Show your appreciation. Hit that kudos button real hard
