Hello,
I'm missing calls with this unit all the time. When I call the unit, it does not even ring until second or third ring... am I doing something wrong here?
I'm with Fido.
Thanks
I had the same whith ELF . The problem is that it has priority for data connection . (and i can guess that you are checking mail every 5 min with sevelal accounts ). so when it use mail-push ----you miss calls
Solution to my mind is to check mail manualy or not every 5 min
I myself have ELF for telefon and reminder and X7500 only for DATA (mail internet massanger) and as organizer (more convinient to write than with ELF)
You can also call your carrier and ask them to add more time before voicemail picks up. My mother had this problem - picked up after 3-4 rings so she never had time to get it out of her purse. She got it extended to 6-7 rings and now she's fine.
My Athena rings on the 2nd ring, but my Jabra starts vibrating on the 1st, so I haven't had a problem.

Make sure you use a .wav ringtone and not a .wma one
normally there is a 3 second delay. Try changing the registry to remove the delay
You've just to edit the follwing reg value:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
edit "Script" value to apw0r
that's a zero in apw0r
Another issue that effects the time to ring is the type of ring tone. .wav files will ring quickest.
I just found a long list of registry hacks, and one of them might be very useful for this thread - you can change how the phone rings/handles incoming calls. Maybe playing around with this you can get your phone to ring sooner?

i found this at one point but i cant find it anymore. has there been a reg edit or a cab to press a button and stop the ringtone from ringing. please dont tell me to make shorter ringtones i am aware of this but sometimes theres no good place to cut a ringers and ir woul just end too abruptly. so if someone can let me know please greatly appreciated. i have a mogul but the telus version
This might have been the thread you thought you saw.

I don't think this does what you want though. Doesn't it stop when you press ignore? I can't think of it right now. Maybe you just want any button to do this, but then you couldn't answer. Maybe explain this one more.
I think hes talking about the same issue im having with my phone. Actually I have two different issues that are somewhat related...First, i think he's talking about the text message ringer. For example...if i set a ringtone to my text messages(songs that is) and i recieve a text message, there is now way to shut the ringer off...it just keeps playing and playing and vibrating and vibrating....the only thing that will make it stop is a power down or soft reset.....whats even weirder is if i recieve a text message while the first message is ringing it plays the ringtone a second time in the background...so not only can i not stop the first one but there a second one that i cant stop either...PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!....now for the second issue....i downloaded mring for my phone and it allows me to stop the problematic ringer from before by pressin any button on my phone (GREAT!!!!!!!!) no, not great...when i set my text messages to ring and vibrate it rings, but no vibration occurs...and if i have it on vibrate only...it doesnt vibrate either....at first i thought it was problem with my phone, but the vibration on telephone calls works fine...it's only text messages...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!!!!!! if anyone can fix the problem im having with mring that would be great cuz i want to continue using that program seeing as how i purchased the product and now that im having that problem its basically useless...

29 views and no responses....does anyone on ths site know anything about phones...obviously not...
hi i am fairly new too this stuff and what i think is happening for the first issue may not be happening.....but only a professional can correct tht....when a txt message ringtone plays it basically plays the whole song or ring..before it stops....it almost as if when u recieve a text message windows media player launches in the background and just plays till the end....but it dose not do that for phone calls because any musical content or data service is stopped the second you recieve a phone call...as for the vibration issue i have no idea what too tell you oon that...but what u can try is use small sound files as ringers tht way they wont overlap each othereaside from tht i think there is a registery key tht you can change to achive a limited time ring when a text message is recieved....
as for the reg key you will have to search the forms for tht i believe....
What i do is crop my songs / sounds for text messages. I crop them to about 2 seconds or a little bit more and I dont worry about ongoing sounds playing.
Also you can change the settings on your phone to vibrate and ring, ring, vibrate and so one. See if any of those settings are interfering with your notifications.
Ive tried all of your suggestions in the past..the whole reason im using songs as ringtones is so that im aware of when im recieveing a text...if i wanted a 2 second ringer id use a stock one...guess the problem is unfixable...thanks for th input tho
First, WITHOUT USING ANY 3RD PARTY APPS
If someone calls from a blocked/restricted number, is there any function in the Titan that would allow me to set it to not ring (or to only vibrate, or have a special ringer for only restricted calls)? I tried making a contact called restricted, but that didnt work.
Second, if the above is not possible, what are some 3rd party apps that I might try? I never pick up blocked calls, and I dont even want to hear it ring.
It's not exactly a 3rd party application, more like a service; check out www.youmail.com . If somebody with a blocked number calls me, it says "the number you are calling does not take calss from unidentified callers, please hang up and reveal your number."

Ummm.... There has to be a million. Ok not that many but seriously There are even some that are developed on XDA! I could find that one though ;c(
Here is one that is pretty popular. Im sure others will chime in with there favorites too.

I could swear I had done this in the past.... But I cant figure it out now.
You can try Ringo... it might do the trick...

If you dont want to hear it ring... I recommend SPB Phone Suite...
It has a blacklist feature to ignore calls.. ignore and never ring.
Also it has a great today plugin for showing your vmail, unread messages.. etc (I recommend turning off the big buttons though.. the default look is ugly IMHO)
And my favorite feature, you can set the phone to vibrate, or silent for a period of time (5 mins, 15mins, 30 mins.. etc) This is a life saver since I often need to silence my phone for meetings, and then a few hours later I realize... I have 20 missed calls because I never set it back.
### Edit ###
I just set SPB Phone suite to blacklist "Private" calls.
I then blocked caller ID and called from my home phone... Nothing.. no ring, no flash, the phone ignored it.
It did ring on the callers end the normal number of rings before going to vmail... I.E. it didn't go right to vmail like when you hit ignore.
Superb. SPB Phone Suite does exactly what I want with regards to calls from blocked numbers.
Thanks!

This site is very slick. Thank you for sharing it.
To test ignoring calls I added my desk phone number to the block list. I called it up, my phone woke up, but never rang and didn't give a notice of a missed call. My desk phone was greeted with the message I left it on youmail.com which happened to be the default smart greeting. Very very cool to have this feature without installing a thing on my phone.
My samsung mega doesn't ring only some time. If it doesn't ring the call will go to voice mail. If the caller hangs up before it goes to voice mail I never know I was called because it doesn't show a missed call in call log. I have read all I can find here and other places. However my problem isn't exactly same as I find. All sound is on and volume is up. I also know this since it does ring some time...
Now on the dialer pad on the # key there is a icon looks kinda like a speaker with a line through it. I can't remove it, what is it. Even though it is there the phone will still ring sometime.
From what I read I might have a software problem. Can I put the KIT-KAT on and perhaps solve the problem
Any help appreciated.
I posted this on the incorrect form a couple days with no answers. Probably because post was wrong forum.

i get two separate ringers when I have an incoming call the one that is set by the system and another that is just a chirping ring. I don't understand where this chirping ring is coming from or how to disable it. Here are some log files that I have been scouring to try to find what sets off the secondary ringer even if Do Not Disturb or total silence is enabled. The chirping ring will stay active through the entire call until you end it. i am using CM13 for the boost mobile samsung j3, sm-j320p.
this is the link to the rom.
