Since I've upgrade to DCD 3.2.x ROM's I've had a weird issue with my phone randomly switching itself into vibrate mode. I seems to occur less frequently with the 3.2.6 ROM, but in the last few days it has definitely switched into vibrate mode more than a few times. I've been unable to track down any more details as to why this is occurring (i.e. a program I'm using or something I'm doing and not realizing). I am using HTC Home, I doubt this has a bearing on the situation, but I thought I'd throw it out there. Has anyone else experienced this problem? More importantly has anyone found a fix to this annoying issue?
Thanks folks!
same here
I have had that same problem here recently along with the radio turning off periodicaly for no reason. Had DCD 3.2.6 installed since it came out. No new programs have been installed since the install so I don't think that is it.
HTC Home has a feature to switch your audio profile to vibrate when you have an appointment in your calendar. Ensure that you are not set to "automatic" on your sound tab.
Other than that, no ideas.

I second the suggestion. I had accidentally put mine in automatic and every time an appointment reminder would go off, 10 minutes later it would go to vibrate... took me about 3 days to figure it out.
Now I use it all the time, if your calendar appointment is set to busy, with automatic it will do this. If you don't want the auto-vibrate, set your time to free (that is what I do with kids sports schedule's)...
Not Using Automatic Sound Setting
I'm certainly not using the automatic sound setting in HTC Home so it must be something else...

I am currently running dcd3.2.0, aand Radio 3.42.02. Since my flash of dcd3.16.0, the phone has a weird way of switching itself into silent mode. I dont know why or how, but it goes to silent and none of my calls, messages or etc ring. Has this happened to anyone else? any ideas on how to disable silent or fix it?
Are you running HTC Home? It has a automatic ringer feature that turns off the ringer when your calendar shows an appointment. I know there are a couple other apps that do the same.

Yes I am, is it a feature of HTC home or do I have to uninstall it?
It is a mode on the sound tab called "automatic". Go to the sound tab and see if it is selected. Change it to ring if so.
hmm this is actually happening to me too, but i thought i was just crazy. sometimes my phone will randomly go completely silent, but i don't have any appointments scheduled or HTC home installed. i use profiles with SPB phone suite, and even on the Normal profile, which normally rings and such, the phone wont ring even on this profile. if i select that profile again, even without switching off of it, the rings come back

I removed HTC Home and it is still doing it, is it something in the firmware that can be changed? I've searched the net, and couldnt even find a key as to try and disable the silent setting. Any other ideas?

That's all I have for ideas. Hopefully someone else on here has seen this before. I know there are other applications that do this other than Home, but don't know which ones. Have you tried a hard reset to go back to the default install of DCD without any added CABs? Perhaps it is one of your applications causing the issues. Try running for a couple days without adding any applications and see if you have issues. If not, add them one by one until your problem comes back. Also, if you are going to hard reset anyway, you might as well move to DCD 3.2.2 and radio 3.42.30 while you are at it.
I wanted to see if this is a common issue. My Touch Pro has done this a few times so I know it has to be some sort of glitch and not just a one time fluke. I wake up to find my phone with the ring lit up solid (indicating full charge), but the phone will not turn on so I have to reset it. This is a problem because I use it as my alarm clock and it is just freezing at random. It does not freeze at all throughout the day.
Any help or enlightenment on this problem is greatly appreciated!
Are you using something like G-Alarm or the standard alarm on the phone? Also are you using S2U2? If so could be a setting in there.
my phone does this occasionally too without any alarms or anything set...
I have s2u2 installed, but not in use. I use Klaxon for the alarm which also sets the standard alarm for the phone. I use it every night, but it only freezes on occassion.

Not too familar with that one, I use G-alarm which is pretty nice and it works with the standard alarm too and is pretty friendly with the HTC Touch Pro and Diamond IMO. I have never had my TP freeze using this alarm.
Mine does that if there is a bluetooth capable pc on in the same room at night. Strange thing. I just disable bluetooth on my pc and my phone stopped freezing.
Thanks, I'll try switching alarms and see if that helps. I doubt it will do much since I use Klaxon every night and it does not freeze that often.
Hmmm...the bluetooth thing is definitely weird. I rarely have bluetooth turned on on my phone, and I always shut down my computer at night. Did your phone do this even when bt was not on?
Mine does it also and I don't even use the alarm. (Verizon TP)
me too
i have had this happen and so has my girlfriend both sprint touch pro.
she uses the stock alarm i dont use the alarm at all
its only when charging overnight and only about once every 2 months
also we both dont have blue tooth active
i always assumed it was a random wm error
same issue with 6800
I had the same issue with my 6800 (I get the 6850 next week). It turns out that it was some conflict with my podcast software. When it was plugged in and trying to do an auto download it would freeze. I changed settings on how often it checked the net and bingo, the problem stopped.
I think some people have resolved this issue, by going into Today settings and under the Items tab unchecking the Today timeout.
Thanks, I have changed the setting. I will give it a little while and see if the problem persists. Thanks again for your help.
Ive heard of this happening on my ROM as well. It happaned to me once.... And it was on a stock ROM when it did. Dont know if there is a fix.
well so far so good....changed the today timeout under today screen settings, and the phone has not had the issue yet. I will update again after a little more time passes.
I also have this problem on the Verizon TP. I use G-alarm. The problem first happened after I set Sprite for automatic backup at 3 AM, so I thought it was related to that. I stopped automatic backup and went two weeks without a night time freeze, but this morning it happened again. I have just unchecked the Today timeout as suggested here, hopefully that helps. Does anybody have any more to report on the effectiveness of this fix?
No luck with the Today timeout check box. I unchecked on May 8, I once again had the TouchPro freeze while on charge overnight last night. Worked fine for 6 days then the problem recurred. Any other ideas?
this happened to me as i woke up this morning. i am using a far from stock setup with the rom thats listed in my sig & a bunch of other things. i would have a real hard time narrowing this down with all the extras i have going. but i would def like to figure it out. so i'm bumping this to keep people posted.
thanks guys
TP freeze
I am having the same freezing issue. It mostly happens over night while charging but it has happened during the day as well. hopefully someone finds the issue.
having the same problem here. Sprint on MightyRom 4.1x.
I only charge the phone from the AC brick. About once every couple weeks I come downstairs to a locked up phone.
First noticed this a week ago.
I have installed CHT 2.0 [didn't seem to happen] and then installed the Dinik task manager and Touch of Glass homescreen theme.
I then put a toggle switch for wifi in the quicklinks and sporadically noticed wifi would be on.
As the quicklink was on the first row of the home screen I thought maybe I was touching it accidently [although I didn't really believe it].
Moved it to another screen anyway.
Since then I have done a hard reset having installed latest wwe rom and reinstalled cht 2.0/diniks taskbar and the TOG theme and the toggle switch [on a 2nd screen].
I have noticed today that the wifi seems to turn on when there is no phone reception so nothing to do with touching the toggle switch etc.
Never happened before though in the year I have had the phone and obviously it is not ROM-linked.
Anyone any idea what the cause might be and how to stop it?
Yes I do have my gmail account on push email via activesynch BUT I have had this from day dot and anyway push is supposed to be turned off overnight but I occasionally wake to find it on in the morning.
I have just set up the phone exactly how I like it so am loathe to remove cabs one at a time to find the culprit if there is an easier way!
Help appreciated.

Hi, Nothing is wrong just remove Gmail, and add it as normail mail, see if this stops. Then re-try it again via sync to see if the prob comes back.
Russ
But I have had Gmail as my Activesynch account for nearly a year with no problems.
Why should that be a problem?
As i happens Activesync had a bit of a freak-out this morning so I had to do this anyway (remove Gmail account and add it again)
Hi.
On my old Samsung Fascinate, I used to use ToggleSettings, but apparently that was discontinued and doesn't work at all on my new Galaxy S3...
Here's what I need:
In short, I need ALL sounds and vibrations EXCEPT phone calls (and maybe the alarm clock if possible) to automatically be turned off at a specified time every evening. My wake-up time is different on many days, so I need to be able to turn them all back on manually without it disabling the automatic quiet mode in the evening.
What I used to do with the previous program was to turn off all Syncing - no Syncing, no email sounds.
I tried Profile Scheduler, and it's a nice program, but it has a few limitations that don't work for my purposes - it will buzz at every profile change, it let a calendar notification through when all sounds were supposed to be off (except alarm - I figured alarm was clock, not calendar, maybe I'm wrong there...), and when I manually turn Night mode off in the morning whenever I get up, it disables the schedule to turn Night mode back on later...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm in the same situation as you now with my HTC One. I've moved from an iPhone where the DND service works exactly as you described above. Profile Scheduler does not do the trick. I guess it's not a good sign that this has sat idle for so long!
I ended up using Llama.
After some tricking around, I figured out what I needed.
I have Night Mode as an Event - it turns off syncing (no email sounds) and enables the Profile Night where most sounds are turned off.
I'm not 100% sure that the phone whitelist works, but I haven't really needed it lately.
Also, I setup a folder on my Home screen with shortcuts to my Night Mode EVENT (not the Profile) and Day Mode.

Thanks, I'll take a look. Found this thread too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40570994
Guys please help: I recently purcashed a LG Vista LG-D631. Within the next 24 hrs the phone was changed to 5.0.1 without my knowledge. That's when I started to notice that the sound changes to Priority, or No Interruptions automatically. Most of the time, the settings get changed at around 500am. My alarm is set for 530 am so I do not have any sound to wake up, only vibration. I have checked almost every morning, in the settings, Sound , Interruptions, and it is set to ALL, no check marks on calendar, incoming or new messages. The schedule section remains unchecked for all days of the week, and the From and To times are not highlighted. I have gone through each of my apps to determine if one of the Apps has a notification set, but none of the apps have check marks next to them. Lately I have rooted the phone, which works great, except for the NO INTERRUPTIONS that turn on by itself.
I have been searching the internet on how to change the settings with no luck. Please give some ideas.
Thanks in advance.
