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...
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.

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.
Hi all,
I just wanted to share an app I've been using for quite a while and I think it's great and might be useful for some.
It's called Phone Profiles Plus, it allows you to set sound profiles based on time of day, location, connected devices, connected to WiFi or Bluetooth and also when connected to a charger, you can also have it launch apps based on what it's connected to.
Example 1: When I got to the gym and connect my Bluetooth headphones, it will automatically launch 2 apps for me, Google Play Music and my workout app (but doesn't close them when disconnected, unless I didn't figure how)
Example 2: When I connect my phone anytime between 11pm and 8am to the charger, it will set all sounds to silent and then revert back to the previous profile once I take the phone of the charger.
Example 3: If I go the the movies (I usually go to the same 2 theaters) my phone will automatically change to vibrate based on the location.
Anyway I thought I would just share.
Phone Profiles Plus at Google Play Store
Yes, it's great but unfortunately has no good help file. For example I totally cannot figure out what 'shared profile' is. And why bluetooth is constantly switching on when nothing is triggering it and there is absolutely nothing on the log file.
I just installed this app and it seems awesome. I, too, am having some small configuration issues and was looking for a subreddit, user forum, wiki, or some other place where users could help each other. Does anyone know if this exists?
I'm using the app without events until I get the profiles working like I need. I want all notifications off at night (Sleep profile) except for my ringer and alarm. I enabled the "Unlink Ringer and Notification Volumes", set notification volume to 0, Ringer to 1, but I can still hear all of my notifications. Am I missing some other setting somewhere?
Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this!
I would try to set the system sounds to 0, silent sound notifications, 1 ringtones, but silent sound and ring only for those who have a ringing tone assigned, the alarm clock works, and other announcements are quiet. It works fine for me.
This app is surely great, I have one problem: my home and my work places are very close to each other and there is only one mobile cell that covers both my home and my work. There are around 10 totally different cells for home and 10 other cells for work but this only one common cell that is in use in both home and work areas is spoiling the whole profile change process because my profiles are changing based on mobile cells. It would be very easy if my GPS sensor was enabled at all times but it is not and don’t want to be enabled constantly. Any advice of how to solve this problem without GPS enabled will be greatly appreciated! My phone is Samsung Galaxy S9+ and it is rooted with Magisk.
I like this app, but I am having similar issues here. Bluetooth activates/deactivates unexpectedly. Events sometime trigger unexpectedly. Can't find support.

I'm using this app too and potentially it should be great, however I cant get events working as they should. Finding some sort of support would be handy.

What issues are you having with getting your events to work? Are they activated? Did you set priorities for them?

Thanks for your response. My events sometimes don't activate and you are correct, it could be to do with the priorities which I didn't pay too much attention to before. I thought as long as the active parameters were met the event would activate the profile. For example I initially had my home profile activated by the area then I tried mobile cell censor, I also set this to be active between 7AM and 2300. I had a 'night' event from 2300 till 7AM which only seemed to activate when I restarted events. I had a work event which should have activated on the area where I work but wasn't. Even when I tried manual activation it wasnt changing. Yesterday I cancelled the time activation on the 'at home' event and left the times on the 'night' event and gave a higher priority to the 'night' event and this seemed to work last night, but I have previously had things working for one activation before then it doesn't again, so we will see. Also I have switched to 'order events by priority' rather than start order, so will see how that works over the next day or so when I am back at work.

I found using the priorities helps a lot with event, here's some examples of events that I have setup and their priorities.
Event name: Work (activated by time: Mon to Fri, 8am to 6pm) / Priority: P6
Event name: Car (activated by Bluetooth connection to my car) / Priority: P8
Event name: Bedtime (activated by time and if phone is charging: 7 days, 11pm to 7am and phone must be also be charging to launch event / Priority: P7
So here is where setting Priorities is important:
Let's say it's 11:30pm and I'm home and put my phone on the charger, my Bedtime event will activate which switches my Profile to the DND that I set up.
But if it's 11:30pm and I go into my car and connect my phone to Android Auto (USB cable) or to the car charger, my Car event will launch and not my Bedtime event.
My Car event is set to P8 and Bedtime is set to P7, so the Car event takes priority over the Bedtime event.
I've been using Phone Profiles Plus for a few years now and have about 10 events setup.
If you have questions, I'll be glad to try and help, I learned how to use it by trial and error.

Thanks for your help. What I have done seems to have things working now though there can be a delay of about 20 minutes at times before a profile is switched, have you found that to be the case too?
What switch do you use for your 'order events by...'? Does this matter?
I did delete the car profile as it wasn't activating at all now but I'm going to create it again and try it now other things seem to be working.
Thanks

I am using redmi note 7 now, I used the app b4 on redmi Note 4 and it was perfect, when I changed to note 7, I took the saved profiles with me and granted every possible permission to it, however when I change profiles and there is a brightness change within the new assigned profile, the screen dims to the lowest brightness after few seconds of activating the profile... Everything else works perfect.. Only the brightness issue.. Any help?
Hi,
I started using Phone Profiles Plus as a replacement of Llama. Unfortunately it doesn't detect connected cell unless I press RE-SCAN button. Is it related to specific phone model (I have Xiaomi Mi Max 3)?
VIP or Starred contacts
I've been using this app for quite a while now and I have a good setup that's been working great. However there is one thing I can't for the life of me figure out. I have certain numbers (VIP or starred contacts) to allow to sound even when it's on silent (zero volume).
Any ideas on how to make that work?
Thanks!
Edit : So finally figured this app out and dang, I must say it's pretty darn good! This and Audio Profiles (found on the Play Store - not free) are the only two Profile Apps that I have found that work w/ A11 that lets you control the screen brightness & sound levels. But this app here, PhoneProfilesPlus, let's you control much much much more than that and is more configurable than Audio Profiles but is more confusing to set up, however. But once you do figure it out it's totally worth it as it does work better than AudioProfiles (for me at least).
The only feature that I wish I could find or make happen is that when I manually switch profiles that I can choose a beep to sound when I do the switching. I see that I can make it beep when it changes Events, but how can I make it beep when I manually switch profiles? (I left a suggestion on Github).
Gotta say it's pretty crazy that more profile apps such as these don't exist.. PhoneWeaver was the bomb way back in the day
Btw, you gotta find it here now : https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/sk.henrichg.phoneprofilesplus
Hi all,
Wondering if there's an app that can tell what can turn ringer on by itself...
At night if I turn my ringer off, texts wake me the next morning by vibrating.
If I turn on do not disturb texts wake me with full ringer notification sound. Changed dnd schedule to off later in day, didn't do anything. Changed dnd to priorities off and no schedule, still wakes on texts.
I have no idea if it's the texts pushing through, or something turns it back on through the night.
I've not installed anything prior to the issue. Since it started I installed a new router app and cam app, but again was happening before.
Losing sleep is getting to me so I'm ready to do a hard reset. Hoping however there's a way to track via a log what could be causing this.
I did update a large amount of apps, so I'm guessing that is the trigger. Just zero clue what is really causing. Would take ages to install a few apps at a time then wait for morning to test...
Any guesses?
Thank you,
Sleepy android user...
