Silent phone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Does anyone know of an app that I can configure so it auto puts my phone on complete silence say 8 in morning till 5 at night, this will save me doing it manually as I might forget and get in trouble in work
Cheers

Tasker will do this job.

Or you can make an alarm just to remind you to silence your phone before getting to work

use free quick profiles to setup a silent profile, i think the pro version may do it automatically

Your issue is odd and would rarely happen..
Apart from asking you to reboot or even factory reset,
of course I've got a clue for you, just making switching modes a bit inconvenient, but solving the problem is the most important isnt it
download VIBRATE MODE BY FORCE from the market and check the boxes you want
(ignore the market previews, it will translate itself once it goes to your phone)
This app can also help other ppl who wish not to accidently turn on their volume when they are in meetings / schools!
hope this will help you, mate
Uninstall audio manager. (If you have)

Auto-rotate problem

I was wondering how many other people are having problems with this. It works when I do a full wipe and then stops after 20 minutes. And now won't rotate

it appen to me for no particular reason, after the update i think, all you have to do in the setting is to re enable the option. its probably only disable

No I have it enabled. Tried many options.

I started a thread about it also, search it. After the update, my auto rotate and auto brightness stop working. Did your auto brightness stop too?
I returned it and bought another. It might be software but I rather not risk it.

In almost every app there is a notification setting and some even let you choose how often it updates

Phone, settings, accounts and synchronize
Turn on both Background data and Auto sync.

Do you use juice defender? I will only get my notifications when juice defender connects back to the net. But I do get them soon as that happens..
on sync i have both checked, and no i dont use juice defender any one else have issues with notifications? only thing that seems to be on point is gmail
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
All my notifications are fine. It sounds like you have a bad phone or a bad ROM.
it isn't just this phone my sg2 did the same

Silent but Rings

if the phone is on silent, is there a way to make certain contacts ring? So meaning bypassing the silent mode?
This is one odd request, why would you want this function?
create profile using apps in playstore. u remember nokia??
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
What ascariz said.. or maybe try to set the notification sound to a silent one or something close.. you can probably download a tone that is blank .. then just assign a different tone to a contact. .. maybe
Good luck

sorry for the late reply..
my thoughts are around if i am in a meeting i have my phone on silent but set a ringtone for someone important, e.g. mum/dad and the phone will ring.
ill check out some of the apps on playstore.
You can with tasker. I just created a profile for night that silents the phone but allows anyone on my favorites list to by pass it with a phone call. One of android 's more pricey apps but well worth it in my opinion. Examples on how to do it can be found on tasker's wiki.

Search "selective silence" in play store. Been using it forever and it works great. Just add the numbers you want to ring when your phone is in silent mode. Very small and free app. By ChainsDD I think.
Hope that helps

There's an app called Tasker, I've set it up to go off silent with a certain text

Using profiles

I can't get these to work on any of the ROM's that I've tried. I basically want my work profile to have certain ringtone and notifications and night to have the fun ringtones. Are there detailed inductions on how to utilize profiles? Thanks
