[Q] Major problem with Cyanogenmod - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey i am haviing a major problem with cyanogenmod 7 and i have selected a song as ringtone. firstly, a wrong song plays as ringtone and that song will play always even if i change the ringtones. the default ringtone was ok then i changed to a song and from then a new song from my list keeps on playing on call. secondly, when i miss a call, my ringtone goes off but a random song is played on my phone n when i check, my music player is off. the only way to turn the new song off after the missed call, is to drop down the notification bar.
please hlep. my cyanogenmod version is 7.1.0
thanks

It has to do with the profile settings.
Go to settings, Profile and put the profile on default
You'll be good 2 go.
And it's not an issue with CM7, There are so much options available in this ROM.
You can see it as a disadvantage, but it's definitely not.
I also had this issue of my own ignorance

Silent Ringtone Selected

My Phone seems to have itself stuck with the Ringtone on silent. Every setting says its up. Audio Manager has all the volumes up. Message tones work and so do system / media and alerts. But the ringtone will not make a noise..
When I press the volume up button on the home screen.. it comes up with Silent Ringtone Selected..... Is there any way to get rid of this?
Thanks in advance
Solved....
Just Wipe data + cache
reload ROM and restore all apps back from default and bingo...
I know this may seem over kill but it works and I really need my ringtone on the phone (wife due to go into labour any day soon)
Thanks

Try fixing it with "AudioManager Widget" from the android market.

Silent Ringtone
I'm actually having this same problem, and it's 2 years later. I believe that I have found the solution though.
I'll start out by saying I got my Droid Pro about a week ago.
I downloaded the "Voice Recorder" app by Mamoru Tokashiki.
I would record audio for ringtones (generally song snippets because I'm too lazy, or stupid, or I like to make more work for myself than downloading the actual ringtones). I would retitled the files (.3gp) and hit "Set as Ringtone." Then if I toggled my volume rocker it would say Silent Ringtone Selected.
I came to these forums and immediately knew that I didn't want to root my phone or do anything like that. So a lot of people suggested it was the software. I ditched the software and downloaded "Tape-a-talk" by Markus Drosser. It records in both .3gp and .wav. I use the .wavs because they sound so much better.
It worked for me once, but then I started getting the same message. It couldn't have been a problem with the software because I ran two different apps. It's something with the way that the android system saves the files.
I tinkered around with a process that is working for me now (it involves a lot of turning on and off which is annoying, so get prepared).
1. Open recording app (I use tape-a-talk) and record your audio. It shouldn't matter the duration (I thought I was getting the silent ringtone error because my files were too long, but that's not the case).
2. Immediately set the recording (labeled with some generic date like 03-19-2012.wav) as your ringtone. Toggle the volume rocker to check if you get the silent ringtone selected. (If you do, then try re-recording as .3gp. If that still doesn't work then this process probably won't work because something else major is wrong with your phone).
3. Turn off the phone.
4. Power back up (30s downtime).
5. Open up Settings>Sounds>Phone Ringtone. If 03-19-2012 is set as your ringtone then you should be pretty okay. Go back to the home page and toggle the volume rocker again to double check.
6. Turn off the phone then power it back up.
7. Go back into your recording app and find the generic file, rename it to what you want.
8. Set the newly titled .wav or .3gp as your ringtone.
9. Toggle the rocker to make sure it saved properly.
10. If it did, then turn your phone off. Turn the phone back on and open Settings>Sounds>Phone Ringtone.
If everything worked it should have your ringtone set and saved with the new file name.
Then you're free to enjoy.
That process works for me.
Some people may still claim it is the software, but in my experience it is a matter of how your phone ends up saving the recorded files.
This information is useless if you're talking about downloading a ringtone, btw.
Hope this helps anyone in the future.
solution
i had the same problem so i searched in every option from settings
so here are the steps...
settings -> sound -> ringtone -> phone ringtone
when you open the "phone ringtone" you will see that your phone is set on "silent". well all you have to do is to choose another ringtone from that list, or, if you want a song from your music player you just set a random ringtone from the list and then go in "music" and set as ringtone your favourite song.
hope it helped ^_^

Music Playback interuption

Hi everyone,
I've noticed when I listen to my music (using HTC Music player), the music got paused when a notification sound comes up and when the notification sound is done, the music resumes.
I love those notification sounds, but if I get a notification like every minute, my music keeps pausing for a few seconds and resume back.
It gets annoying :-s
Is there a workaround or a fix for this?
I hope someone can help me
I dont know if its the same on sense as i am using cm7, but there is an option to always play notifications over a certain speaker etc.
Alternatively, you could use Tasker or something similar to disable notifications when music is playing

[Q] Can you listen to Pandora and get notifications without interruptions?

Hey everyone, quick question. I recently starting using Pandora and notice that when Im listening to Pandora and get a text message or email, the music pauses for a few seconds to let the notification sound. Is there a way to not let this happen? Thanks
Pandora has always been like that. As are most apps, they lower the volume to allow the notification tone go through and than jump back to full volume. I don't think there's a way to change that. Just be glad your Pandora doesn't auto change songs every 45s after a 'taste' of every song because the update has an issue with a rom.
just turn down notifications sounds to vibrate or silent, no interruptions

Set mp3 ringtone= phone/acitivity media storagecrash

hi, im on the latest nightly cm10.1-20121231 and apparently each time i go into a music player and set a song/mp3 as a default ringtone, the "activity media storage" crashes and freeze up my phone
-Another case is when i go into the sound setting and trying to set the ringtone again, the phone also freeze up
-Also once u set the default ringtone to any mp3 songs that does not come as default to CM10.1, when someone call, the phone app locks up and continuously vibrate none stop
-all these goes the same for the clock app, and yes i did try to clear data from both clock app n apollo app, but they still crash. I tested this with another music player app, it can play music but once i set the song as default ringtone, everything crash again
-Lastly, the problem is only solve when i change the ringtone back to one of the sound that came with CMod, only then all phone call goes through again n it will play the ringtone
ANY HELP / IDEA IS APPRICIATED

why is my ringtone reverting to the default?

This is a strange one.
I have uploaded some songs onto my phone's memory (not SD card) and set one of them to be my ringtone for all contacts.
It works OK for a while, and then suddenly when someone calls me, I hear the default ringtone of the device (instead of the one I set)...
Then, when I go to the device's Sound & Notifications settings, I see that the ringtone that's displayed as the selected one is still the one I manually selected, but when i try to play it, it plays the default phone ringtone instead.
I can only get the real song to play after i remove it from the list and re-add it.
Any ideas?
I already turned the Ringtone ID setting off, and I have no SD card installed on the device.

It happened both when saved contacts and unsaved numbers called me.
Thing is that when I go to the Sound & Notifications settings, my selected ringtone now plays the default ringtone instead of the correct song. -:0
My selected ringtone is called "Stone the Crow".
When I go to the Sound & Notifications settings I see that this song is still selected, but when I click to play it, it plays the default device ringtone instead of Stone the Crow...

The songs are standard mp3 format, but I'll give it a shot and notify -
Ok, so I think the issue is solved, following your suggestion.
There are several possible reasons, in case any one else ever has the same issue.
My original files' extensions were in caps (MP3) and were transferred to the phone via Airdroid to the Music folder.
My fix was that i converted my MP3 to a FLAC file and saved it without caps. I also saved the file in the download folder instead of the music folder.
For now it has been over 24 hours without the ringtone being reset, so I'm guessing it was either the MP3 format, the extension or the music folder...
Thanks! -
