Hi
Since about a week ago my SGS2 answer an incoming calls with the speakerphone turned on by default, and there's no way I can change it.
I use lightning rom 1.5 for a few months and everything was perfect until now.
Please help!

Oh I had this same issue just last week, out of nowhere. Here's what I did: plug the USB cord in & out the phone a few times, it should get okay. Just google it too, there's a bunch of HTC users who have reported the same issue but the plug in/out solution works for S2 as well.
Do you all use Go SMS Pro?....if so then its a software issue...
Update the application to the latest one and your issue will be resolved.
I used to have Go SMS pro, but I removed it long ago.
I heard about the problem it makes - similar to mine, so I tried to install and uninstall it again, but it didn't help.
I tried the USB connect/unconnect advice - didn't help.
I tried to install several auto-speakerphone apps to bypass the problem
Most didn't succeed, except from "save your brain" that worked OK for a while and than stopped. It also had annoying notification icon, and many Chinese notes, so I uninstalled it too.
Can't find the solution yet
I'd love more suggestions.
Thanks.

i had the same issue for about the same period, it started kinda a week ago, but in the past days i noticed that it just returned to normal
i updated gosms on 29aug to the last version, i guess this was all the fix i needed, stock 2.3.3 atm
Hi
I Managed to solved the problem using Elixir widget.
One of the possible widgets is Speaker widget.
Once I turned it off - the problem stopped.
Hurray.
Hi everybody! I have the generic GB installed (rooted) and I installed xRecovery on it yesterday so that I can apply the audio stutter fix. It worked wonderfully and my phone got rid of the annoying problem and I want to thank everyone that made this possible. But... after the install for some reason I have the following issue. When my headset is plugged in (which is all the time) and I receive a call or a notification, the sound doesnt come out of the phone's speaker as usual. It only rings through the headset. That was not the case before. I couldnt find any settings to change this and put it back as it was. I really dont know what happened and how. Can anyone that has the Generic GB installed and xRecovery and the stutter fix installed on top of it please confirm this? Thanks everyone in advance!
A while ago I flashed Wolfbreak's 2.3.3 rom on my X10 and all seemed to work absolutely great. That is until I let the power on my phone run out. When I plugged it in and booted it up all the widgets and shortcuts on my homescreen (LauncherPro) were gone and replaced with 3 default ones. It has happened twice so far and suffice to say that it's a tad annoying. This doesn't seem to happen when I reboot the phone or if I turn it off myself.
Was just wondering if anyone ever experienced something like this and what you did to fix it? The apps in question aren't being saved to the SD card as far as I can tell, so that can't be it. Hope someone is able to help me out
Hope someone can help.
I recently started to re-use my HTC HD2 after almost a year of non-use.
It is a stock handset running WM6.5 on the O2 network in the UK.
As I hadn't used the handset in a year, I had factory re-set it so, once I inserted my SIM card, I had to run through the set-up process.
Once done, the handset was working fine.
After a few days, I decided to change the ringtone from the default O2 one, to another one.
However, since doing this, the handset never rings when I get an incoming call and only vibrates.
I have factory reset the handset several times but this makes no difference.
I have searched on the internet and found some details of people with similar issues, but the recommended fix of creating a 'volatile' directory is not working for me.
Does anyone have any experience of this issue and can advise how to resolve?
have not experienced the same but some thoughts below ...
Does the speaker work when playing audio file via music player or from file explorer.
If no sound from speaker try blowing into grill left of camera or taping that area while a file is playing.
If speaker plays sound try removing SD card & test, also check & try a few changes in, Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications & see what results you get !
Final option could be HSPL4 & load HSPL2.08 & try a smooth running standard style custom ROM such as CleanEX RV Standard 1.02 as should be a far better WM experience than the O2 branded ROMs ...
Thanks for the reply Mr B.
I have only just got round to checking this post but, yesterday, for some un-known reason the phone is now ringing as normal.
Very bizarre!
Hey all,
A few days ago, I noticed my phone was only vibrating during incoming calls. I checked the Ringtone section in the sound settings and found that the selected "Tone" was "Silent."
I've tried changing the ringtone to various different sounds, but it continues to revert back to silent. The ringer, itself, ISN'T on silent. It's just the ringtone that seems to get changed somehow.
Anyone else encounter this issue and know how to get it resolved?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Are you trying to set it to one of the built-in ringtones, or a custom one you added? If it's a custom one, is it on the SD card? I've had problems in the past with phones "losing" ringtones that were installed on the SD card, rather than internal memory.

I thought you might be on to something there, so I made sure that all of my ringtones and notifications were copied to internal storage and deleted all sounds from my SD card.
I rebooted, setup my sounds again, and had my wife call me a few times over a period of about 2 hours. Rang every time.
Then, just now, I noticed I had 3 missed calls from clients. NOT good. Checked the ringtone settings and it was back to "Silent" again! Infuriating.
It's not the location of the file. And, now that I think about it, if it HAD been the issue, I would've been experiencing loss of notification tones in all of my other apps too.
This problem has seemingly arisen out of nowhere. The ringer worked perfectly fine during the first few weeks I've had the S9+. It just started doing this to me a couple of days ago. I'd really rather not go through the annoyance of a hard reset...
Damn it, this is getting REALLY annoying
HaaaaLP MEEEEEH!
I'm having the same issue on my Samsung Note 8. Began happening after the device received the Android 8.0 update. I've tried everything and it seems to happen completely randomly. HELP!
Mine is working fine. I have mine on the internal storage in the Ringtones folder /0/Ringtones/ it's an mp3 less than 2MB in size. Not that I know any of that makes any difference.

I hated doing it, but I just performed a factory reset. Been setting up my phone again for hours and I'm not yet done.
So far, it's ringing, but I'm going to be really disappointed if it reverts to silent again. I'll keep you posted.

Tried that too. It worked for a while then randomly went to silent again. It will stay on the ringtone I set for sometimes as long as a day, but eventually it reverts to silent.

So far so good. I've had 7 incoming calls and the ringtone I've selected has stayed in place. For me, before the reset, it would revert to "Silent" after the 2nd call. Fingers crossed.
Same exact thing is happening to me on my HTC U11.
It started happening right away after a full wipe and install of Bad Boyz ROM (Android 8.0). No one else in that ROM thread seems affected.
I have tried just picking a built in ring tone too, and that will also revert. Sometimes it happens within a few minutes, sometimes it takes hours.

That is exactly what happens to me. Custom ringtones make no difference. I've assigned rintones to all my important contacts and those ring through no matter if on silent mode or not. Like you, sometimes it stays put for hours and other times it changes back after a few minutes. Rebooting seems to help it last longer, but I find myself checking my phone all the time to be sure it hasn't gone to silent ringtone. Frustrating!
Hard to blame Samsung if you're not running their software.

I don't believe anyone is *blaming* Samsung although the thread did begin in a Samsung forum. We're just trying to find out why our phones are behaving badly and hoping to find a way to fix a really frustrating problem. Do you have a suggestion on where we might look?
Well, I think it's safe to say that the hard reset did the trick. Ringtone is sticking now. Hooray.

Glad to hear this seems to be working, but not glad that the answer is factory reset. I really, really don't want to go through that. I think I'll suffer along a bit longer and see if someone comes up with a work around or perhaps an app that can lock the ringtone. One can hope.

Yeah, it was a bit of a pain in the a$$, but worth it. Reset definitely did the trick.
I have the same problem on my S9+ since the last update. the basic sound settings revert to Silent as do custom settings. Has anyone contacted Samsung to dee what their excuse is?
Hi Folks, I've been having the same issue since 3 weeks ago. Called Samsung and was told to delete my customized settings. That DID NOT WORK. Finally a Fix. I wipe my cache partition and it worked.
Turn off your phone. Turn it on while holding Power, Bixby, and Vol. Up buttons until you get the menu. Use volume down to get to Wipe Cache Partition (NOT wipe Personal data/factory reset.) Press PWR to accept.
This does not erase anything and it's worked problem free for about a week. I read in other forums that changing the SIM has fixed this issue, but changing your SIM will clear the Cache as well.
Hope this works for you.
The solution is to quickly remove the old ringtone and replace the new ringtone for the phone
