Ringtone sound not working

I just purchased this phone not a week ago, then this problem cropped up. I can't get sound for either my ringer, or notifications. I tried various volume settings, different ringtones, but it didn't solve the problem. Then I attempted a hard reboot, but that hadn't solved the issue either. Anyone have any ideas for a possible solution?

It happened to me with my new tour within the first 3 weeks I owned the phone so they gave me a new phone. When it happened again with the new phone ( now beyond the 30 day trial period) a tech at the store removed the battery for a while then put it back in. It worked. The phone rebooted. It has happened one other time since october. He said he never heard of this problem which must have been bull. Others have advised to make sure you keep the phone off every once in a while ANd to make sure and do the monthly software update .(I have verizon.)

  • Ringtone sounds not working correctly

    I don't know what happened to the ringtone sounds on my iPhone 3gs. I'm wondering if there's something wrong in the settings.

    What does "not working correctly" mean?
    Is the silent switch on?

  • Text messages ringtones are not working in the Storm Two

    Device:  Storm Two running OS version 5.0.0.713 on the Verizon Wireless network.
    Recently, I upgraded from a Storm One to a Storm Two because of a multitude of issues with the Storm One; not enough memory, constant lock-ups; dropped calls, etc.  On the Storm One I had customer ringtones for contacts; so when a contact calls me the phone will sound a specific ringtone for that contact; the same for text messages from that contact. Now that I have the Storm Two the text message tones for the contacts are not working. In fact, even when I select a ringtone for text messages for a contact the phone will ring the generic ringtone that comes with the phone. If I go into the sound profile and change the generic ringtone to one of my own and the contact sends me a text/sms message the phone will ring the ringtone that I selected in the profile that is being used at the time. This is not the way it worked on the Storm One.  On the Storm One; if I have a specific ringtone for the contact and that contact sends me a text message it will sound the text messages tone for that contact. These ringtones have worked for previous devices including my Treo and Palm devices. The ringtone files worked well in the previous Storm One.
    So to make a long story short; I want to know why my text message ringtones are not working as designed/setup-up. If a contact calls me the phone will sound the ringtone for that contact; but if that same contact text me it will not ring the ringtone for the contact. This is annoying and I am at my wits end trying to find out why this is not working.

    Hi Jain....
    Field separator is for separating the fields.That means it will effect every field in the node.
    But end separator is not like that.It will apply at the end ofall fields of a node.It will effect node not a field.
    according to ur scenario if u use data.endseparator 'nl',output will come like this
    2008/0701$101
    2008/0701$102
    2008/0701$103
    2008/0702$105
    if u want new line for every field try to insert a separate node for second field.That means
    MT_DATATYPE:
    Data -
    1:UnBounded
    . .OrderDate----
    1:1
       <Data2>                   1:1
    . ....OrderNo -
    1:1
    now give data.endseparator  'nl'
                data2.endseparator 'nl'
    if possible try like this....

  • Ringtone is not working

    it looks like that since the new update my second ringtone is not working any more. I have a special ringtone for my wife calling me but ist is silent. Only vibration is working. It's an iPhone 4S. I made my own ringtones, but it also does not work with the original tones.

    Ankit103,
    It sounds like your phone is not ringing when it is locked. From what you're describing it sounds like you may have Do Not Disturb configured to only allow the phone to ring when the phone is unlocked. In the settings is where you can configure this:
    To make changes to your Do Not Disturb settings, tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.

  • Iphone 4 sound not working

    The sound on my iphone 4 stopped working. It does not ring when I get a call and no alerts when I get text messages.
    I checked my sound settings and it is set to receive all sounds and alerts. Why would this stop working? Anyone have this problem.
    Thanks.

    If you have tried the usual (reset/restart/restore...tried the restore without using a backup to restore from if doing it from a backup did not help) then you should still be under warranty for at minimum another month (if you got your iPhone 4 when it first came to VZW in February 2011). Contact VZW or Apple for assistance. If the problem is due to a defect not caused by something that would void the warranty then it will be replaced under warranty. If you have insurance from VZW that covers accidental damages not covered under warranty then you can use that option if the issue is declared to be due to non-warranty covered problems. When you say your sounds aren't working at all I assume you mean you not only can't hear the email/text alerst, but you also aren't able to hear when a call comes in ringtone sound not playing). Is that the case?

  • Message tone, music, lock/keyboard sounds not working...tried everything =[

    Hey all, iPhone 4s has gone mental!
    I have read through many posts on sound not working and i have tried everything, previous back ups, complete restore, clean out the headphone port, hard restore, also the volume buttons on the side when pressed will show ringer but no volume adjustment bar pops up =/ and the change volume with buttons is 'on'
    unless my headphones are plugged in nothing works, except my ringtone.
    any other suggestions to fix this would be massively appreciated =]
    Cheers all

    same with me
    what we should do??

  • AUDIODG.EXE hogging 80-100% of CPU and sound not working in Vista . . .

    I posted this on a Microsoft Answers Forum but none of the techs or people reading have been able to help so far.  I'm dying to get to the bottom of this:
    Here is my computer:
    MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
    AMD Athlon 64 3000+
    2GB RAM
    XFX GEFORCE 6600 GT 128MB DDR3 DUAL DVI & TV OUT (PCI-E)
    200GB WD SATA HDD
    500GB WD HDD in external enclosure via USB2
    NEC ND-3520A 16X DVD±RW Dual Layer DVD Burner
    LG CD Burner
    I've been using Vista Home Premium successfully for some time.  Recently, not too long after I did a clean wipe of my OS, my audio would stop working.  The way it would happen is that everything would work fine until I started iTunes or another audio application and when I would hit play, things would lock up.
    Upon inspection of my system resources, I'm noticing that the audio platform for Vista, via the audiodg.exe, is using close to 100% of my CPU resources, even when the computer is making no sound at all.
    I've had a Sound Blaster Live! card in my computer for some time but I was not using it; I use the Realtek AC'97 audio drivers that are on my motherboard instead.  I thought that the conflict may be the computer wanting to recognize my Sound Blaster, so I took it out of my computer but the problem seems to be worse.
    Are there any BIOS setting that need to be adjusted for my sound to start working again?
    I'm very reliant on the audio processing power of my computer (I'm in the radio industry, part-time) and this is a huge drag on my productivity.
    Any tips would be much appreciated.
    REPLY #1:
    Thank you for using Microsoft Answers forum.  I suggest going to the manufacture of your sound card and download the latest drivers and install them.
    MY RESPONSE:
    Good suggestion.  The problem is this:
    I am running on-board audio.  I have an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard which runs "Realtek ALC Series AC97 Audio Driver" and there is no version for Vista. They have a version for Windows 2K/XP and one for Windows XP 64bit.
    Should I use on of those and if not, then what?
    UPDATE (from me):
    I took a chance and found a Realtek AC'97 driver for Vista.
    http://drivers.softpedia.com/progDownload/Realtek-AC-97-Audio-Codec-Driver-Vista-6183-Beta-Download-18114.html
    I went to install it and the install hung.  So, I closed one of the install windows and then the InstallShield app continued like it was working.  So, I hit "Restart my computer".  Well, the reboot hung too.  So, I reset the PC manually.
    When the computer came back up, the sound worked.  Hard to tell if this will fix it for good but it's promising.  Chaotic.  Unpredictable.  Annoying.
    REPLY #2:
    Before you tried updating drivers, did you try rebooting 1st?
    I'm just trying to determine if rebooting your system is what resolved the issue - thank you
    UPDATE II (from me):
    My computer is behaving the same way it was before.  AUDIODG.EXE taking up 80-100% of my CPU and the sound not working.
    Any other ideas?

    Small update: Despite my intelligence, good looks and vast experience I use Google sometimes. To my surprise this file turns out to be a Windows one. Here is someone who is much happier, and since it is some way in my line of thinking I'll quote it, but you might take my previous advice as well:

    "- Open up msconfig.exe > Manage startup programs.
    - Disable ALL Realtek entries

    - Check the box to disable all audio enhancements

    Hello,

    After I`ve followed David`s  steps my computer`s sound started working again. But it didn`t last. The sound stopped working just one day after.
    I did the procedure again, and it worked. But just for a few hours.
    The second time I reinstalled the IDT codec I noticed at the device manager that there is no conflict at the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC.
    Instead, the conflict appear in another item of the sound, video and game controllers topic: high definition audio device.
    Is there another codec I should reinstall?
    Could anyone help me?

  • My video recording sounds not working but other sounds are working fine, I've tried clearing the little mic thing near my earphone hole and had no success can someone please help me out?

    hhi guys
    my video recording sounds not working at all but it's working for other things such as music. I've tried to clear my sound thing near the earphone hole but had no success can someone please help me out?

    Had an Iphone 4 for about 3 months now. This happened to the first one I had and they ended up having to replace it at the apple store just a couple weeks ago 6/2. It happened again last night to my new one. This time i was able to correct it by going to itunes, backing up the phone to icloud, and then restoring the software. Mine did not work with voice memo, but did work with headphones plugged in, and would also work on speaker. I could hear callers but they couldn't hear me. I had purchased a new case (lifeproof case at $79.99) because it comes with plugs that cover the headphone jack, and the charging port, and is also waterproof. I heard that the root cause is due to lint, dirt, etc getting inside the headphone jack. Well, must be something else. It's a 10 days old phone, and has been in this overpriced case the whole time, and I have not used the headphones. I hope this doesn't keep happening.

  • 5.1 sound not working

    I have a X-Fi fatalty titanium champion series sound card with logitech z5500 5. speakers running vista x64 sp. I cannot fully utilize the 5. speakers for some reason. I have updated to the latest drivers, selected 5. speakers from both windows and the creative console launcher but then i get some butchered sound from only the front left and right speakers. I know the other speakers work bc if i only use 2. then i get the sound but it lacks the entire 5. stereo effects. Please [email protected]

    Ive tried all those options but nothing. Device manager also says it is Creative SB X-fi. whats also suspicious is that if i use the sound card built into the motherboard, i get the same problem.
    When testing the speakers i only have sound from the front left and right speakers. the others are silent. thats through both the vista tester and Creative tester
    If that's the case I strongly suggest you test the speaker's connections out, probably on a separate PC if possible!
