Your SIM Played a Tone

Hello everybody!
I have a message few times a day with text "Your SIM played a tone" and two options (Cancel, Accept). Nothing happens for any option I choose.
Could you please clarify me what is it about? and how I can switch it off?
thanks in advance

Dear ios7 users,
I have found a fix for this.
Go to settings-->Privacy---->Location services-----> scroll down for System Services and turn off Location-Based iAds.
This will definitely work.

  • Sound has stopped working; failed to play test tone; format not supported by the device (Vista x64 Ultimate)

    I can no longer hear any sound from my speakers/headphones. This happened suddenly yesterday without any hardware changes or noticeable software updates.
    -- The sound is not muted and the volume is set to full.
    -- In the device manager, my SigmaTel HD Audio device has no warnings or errors.
    -- I can't find any related messages in the Event Viewer.
    -- The primary audio device is selected as the default for playback. The mixer shows my media player as being mixed properly to the device.
    -- In the sound control panel, under Playback > Speakers/Headphones > Properties > Advanced:
     - I get the error message "failed to play test tone" when I try to Test my Default Format (dvd quality)
     - I get the error message "format not supported by the device" when I try to change my Default Format
    -- Note that unlike others who have similar problems, I'm not joined to a domain
    I've tried
    *  rebooting
    *  uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the sound card
    *  "disable all enhancements" in the sound control panel

    Dell confirms it's an OS issue after troubleshooting with me for a couple of hours (wow)
    Is there a way to look at this EVM file _without_ installing the Windows Driver Kit??

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet Windows Vista Forum.
    Upon your description, I see that you have done a lot of research and tests. Unfortunately, none of these troubleshooting works.
    Based on my experience, this issue related to "failed to play test tone" can be related to several reasons. It also includes hardware defect. I am confusing why Dell confirms that the issue is related to Operating System. Could you let me know what operation Dell had troubleshot with you?
    Meanwhile, here I just provide more troubleshooting except what you performed. If it doesn't work, I may also need to recommend that you contact Dell for support.
    1. Microsoft has released a Hotfix to troubleshoot related to "Failed to play test tone".
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930883
    2. Make sure that these services are started.
    Windows Audio
    Multimedia Class Scheduler
    Remote Procedure Call
    Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
    3. I noticed that this issue occurred not long ago, I may need to suggest that you perform a System Restore to the previous restore point when the computer without any problem.
    System Restore
    ==============
    1)     Please click on Start and choose All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and then Windows Backup.
    2)     Click Restore on the left pane.
    3)     Choose Basic Restore.
    4)     Follow the wizard and click Next.
    5)     If you would like to restore everything in the backup, we can check the box “Restore everything in this backup” on the top of the window.
    6)     We can also browse and choose certain files and folders to restore. Then, click Next.
    7)     Then choose the folder to save the recovered files and click Next.
    8)     When we see a “Restore is complete!” message, click Finish.
    Meanwhile, as I know, I'm afraid that there is no other way to look at EVM file except Windows Driver Kit. Maybe there are some third-party software that out of my mind can look at EVM files, you may need to perform more research on Internet.
    Hope this helps. Thanks.

  • No HDMI Audio, Failed to Play Test Tone, Can't Change Default Playback Device

    Hello, I'm experiencing some real trouble with my HP Pavilion dv6-2160us (with the i3-330M, no dedicated graphics) Windows 7-64 bit, SP1 PC, and I would greatly appreciate some assistance.
    I've created a new thread because, despite the fact that many other people have experienced a problem similar to this and have posted what worked for them, nothing has worked for me.
    The Problem(s):
    My main problem is that I cannot get any audio to play from my PC to my HDMI HDTV.
    When I plug my HDMI cable into my PC and TV, the TV is recognized in Playback Devices, but nothing can play to it.
    When I try to test the TV in playback devices, I get a "Failed to play test tone" error.
    Additionally, I'd like to mention some other odd behavior that I think may be a part of the main problem.
    In Playback Devices, I cannot change anything. I can't disable or enable a device, I can't set default playback or communication devices, and I can't save changes inside device properties. Every time I try to change something, like the default playback device, nothing happens or the changes are immediately reversed.
    The Question:
    How can I get audio to play over HDMI on my PC (It's not a problem with the TV, my other HP machines play audio over HDMI to it just fine.)?
    What I've Tried:
    I have tried:
    Changing the default playback devices, which I'm unable to do
    Running the Windows 7 Audio Playback troubleshooters from within a clean boot state
    Uninstalling and reinstalling the Intel(R) Display Audio driver
    Uninstalling and reinstalling the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    Uninstalling the IDT PC Audio program from Programs and Features
    Disabling the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    Nothing has worked.
    The drivers I have are the latest issued by HP
    How can I get this working? I would really appreciate some assistance.
    I'm at the point where I'm ready to try pretty technically-involved suggestions, so, please feel free to post those.
    Your expertise is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • How to play a tone in FPGA

    I am trying to play a tone(either a 4kHz or 7kHz) in a FPGA vi in Labview 2010.  Below is the logic that I am currently using, however, I hear no tone when running the vi.  Does anyone know why this is not working or have any other ideas to use different logic?

    sound output FPGA.png ‏47 KB

    Hi joes51385, 
    First of all, what kind of a speaker do you have connected to your analog output. This could be a problem with the speaker. Also, your logic looks correct, but why are you multiplying the sine wave by .3? Are you using the full-scale amplitude for the sine wave amplitude? Your sine wave amplitude may be too small, which could cause you not to hear the sound. A screenshot of the sine wave setup window would be helpful. Also, it may be more convenient to use frequency values of 0.000175 (7 kHz) and 0.0001 (4Hz). 

  • "Failed to play test tone&qu

    Ever since I installed the new drivers I get this error " Failed to play test tone"? Has anybody experienced this problem. Please help me get my older drivers installed. Everytime I try to uninstall the beta drivers and restart, DEVMgr instantly reinstalls the drivers. THANKS

    I don't know how to solve the test tone error, but to prevent device manager from installing the same drivers again, do this:
    After uninstalling all Creative products via the Control Panel -
    go into Device Manager
    Find your Sound Blaster entry - right click -> uninstall -> check box to delete driver software -> OK -> restart computer.
    Those drivers should now be gone from your computer; your OS my install default generic audio drivers, but the Creative ones should be gone.

  • Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone?

    Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone? I wanted to see if I could upload my old information to the iCloud, by putting the new sim card into the old phone, since I didn't before I updated my new phone.

    Any metal clip will do. Insert the tip in the little hole next to the Sim Card and press FIRMLY. The SIM drawer will pop out.

  • How do you know if your SIM card is an NFC capable card?

    I recently had to get a new SIM card, but I didn't pay attention to know if it was an NFC type card. Is there any way to find out via MyVerizon account or with the SIM card number itself?

        I'd be happy to help you with options for figuring out if you have an NFC SIM Ann154! This is something that customer service can confirm for you. Please follow & DM, and I'd be happy to check your information and determine if your SIM is NFC capable.

  • Failed to play test tone

    When ever I try to play any sound, nothing happens.  When I go into the control panel and double click on the “sound” icon, it shows my speakers.  And when click on my sound device or speakers, and hit test, the message I get it "failed to play test tone".
    Now for some background. 
    1. I had a different soundcard that was doing the same thing, but I thought maybe it just "went bad", so I bought a new one.  I’ve installed it with no problem.
    2. Yes, all the drivers are up to date.  I've run Windows update numerous times and I've double checked the driver version against the one on the manufactures website - they are the same.  Everything is up to date.
    3. The device manager can see my speakers/sound card and it says its working.
    4. I started out on another forum "Media foundation development - Re:Vista/No Sound/Failed to play test tone" and read the whole thread, did everything it told me to, and I even e-mail Microsoft to get a hotfix.  I installed the hotfix, to no avail.  Nothing has changed, my sound still does not work.
    5. The posters/answers at the above thread said they weren't really audio experts and were directing everyone to this thread.

  • If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    That doesn't lock the SIM card, it just locks you out of the device. 
    If you forgot (or don't know) your passcode, restore the device from backup on the last computer it was synced with when the passcode was turned on... this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, you will have to force it into recovery mode & restore as a new device.

  • My iphone says your sim is not valid. How can I solve it?

    I bought a second hand iphone and put a 2degree sim bit it says your sim I not valid. How can I activate it?

    The phone is locked to a carrier different from that for which the sim you are trying to use.  You need to find out which carrier the phone is locked to and contact that carrier to see whether they will unlock it for you

    Typically this indicates a device that has been hacked to be unlocked or jailbroken.
    If that is the case, no support can be provided here.
