[Q] No ring tone - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Atrix is not ringing. No noise at all. No joke. And I have no idea why.
- It isn't switched to vibration
- Ring tone volume is on maximum
- In the menu where to choose a ring tone, the ring tones are working perfect.
- The sound is working fine with video or audi player. So no defect.
What is new, the alarm clock sound isn't very loud as well.
In my opinion momentary there are the following possibilities:
- It is in some way related to my upgrade to Gingerbread
- There is an application, I installed, blocking my sound
Probably the the last one seems to be very likely.
Any idea ? Somebody with the some experience. Please help. It is so stupid a phone which can not ring.

I understand this sounds stupid or as I am joking. But I am not. When my phone rings there is no ring tone, only vibration. Of course I checked all the settings. Can not find any disable of ring tone.
No ideas where to investigate ?

Try changing your ringtone. I had selected "Digital Phone" ringtone and it would only ring once. I changed it to "Bell Phone" ringtone and now my phone rings like it should.
This issue comes and goes for me, not a biggie since I'm pleased just as much with a vibrate-only alert. My biggest concern is that even after the volfix, I still have unbearably low volume.

[Q] Ring only once

I do not know if someone met with something like this, but my X10 with original ROM 2.3.3 a bb .71 play ring tones correctly. But when I use any of customized roms X10 plays ringtone for incoming calls only once and then by setting only vibrate or do nothing. It does not matter whether it is a mp3 ringtone own production (short or long) or internally ring or notification sound. But the caller hear ring at least 6 until they hear the answering service.
Any ideas?

[Q] Question about volume types

Under settings>sound>volume,
there are 4 types.
i only know 3 of them.
"incoming call" is the ringtone volume when the phone receive a call
"Media" is volume of apps, games, music player etc
"notification" is the notification sound like sms, reminder, calender etc
but what is "system" sound?
i notice that the system sound is related to the camera sound,
if i turn system sound all the way down to minimum, the camera focus and shutter sound gets turn off. (i love it that way)
as much as i like to camera shutter sound to be off, i am worried that i might mute some other "important" system sounds, so may i know what are the apps that are related by the system sound?
also, there seem to be many tutorial on how to mute camera sound, why is that needed if this simple way of turning system volume off can do the trick? perhaps is because it cause more harm than good? (such as muting other "important" apps sound)
Hmm....no reply from anyone.
no one knows the answer? or this is too stupid question?
anyway, i left the system volume off for few days now, it seems normal,
viber notification sound still on, only difference so far is the screenshot sound is muted as well.
for fyi for any one who is interested

Ringtone and vibration

How come you can't have both ringtone and vibration on simultaneously. I like the ringtone, but sometimes I can't hear it in a loud environment and would love to have vibration as well.
Yeah I know... I really hate this too. I have to turn it to vibrate only when I am in a loud area. We can only hope a firmware update comes soon to allow both ring/vibrate simultaneously.
I doubt it. Neither the Gear 1 or 2 ever had an option to use both at the same time.
But why? Such a simple and straightforward thing that's also the norm in every mobile phone. The only thing that works both vibration and ringtone simultaneously is the alarm (set on the watch not on the phone.)

Question Notifications don't work when ringtone is set to silent vibrate

I just upgraded from an S10 Plus. I have my audio settings set exactly the same. When using Google Maps to navigate I have it set to alert only. On the S10 while driving the music would drop in volume, I would get the alert tone and she would say "speed trap ahead" along with the pop-up on the screen asking if the speed trap is still there. On the S23 I only get the pop-up on the screen, no audio notification and the music volume stays constant. Is this a known bug? I would also get notification tones for messages as well, nothing on the S23. If I set it to be completely un-muted the turn by turn directions come through as expected but I have not yet driven through an area where an alert notification would come through while un-muted.
That sounds like a bug because I have a macro set to run everytime I connect to my car to turn down notification volume to 0 so it doesn't mute audio for notifications but calls still ring for me just fine.
