I have messed around with the phone and tried everything.. I have come to realize that the voice call rejection and answer works only when the phone is on ring mode, and no vibrate feature is on.
The problem is I keep my phone on vibrate pretty much all the time, is there a tweak or mod that could be made to make the feature work also on vibrate mode?

Any ideas about what we could do about getting it to work while on vibrate?

Maybe edit whatever apk controls the Incoming call screen.
Incoming call probably calls event listeners that check for volume state before initializing voice support.

Even if u tried to edit Pk files just to get it working its no guarantee that it would work since u got 2 things going on.
1: The ring tones which is trying to pass through the the unit so that u can hear.
2: the unit then vibrates but since the sensor doesn't have time to react all it hears is the constant bbbzzzzzz or bzzz bzzz bzz depending on how u have it, it's not gonna recognize ure voice or any sound going through since all it hears is the bzzzzzzz coming from ure phone, only sY is to turn this off.

Could you explain exactly what you mean by bullet 1?
Alternatively, if you change the vibration patter to something with long gaps and short vibration intervals, the sensor wouldnt have to fight to separate your voice from the vibration.
i havent even tried it yet

ment to say that while the sound is trying to pass throught both ringtone and vibration would effect the sensor from being able to detect ure voice even if u have multiple vibrations or just 1 long vibration.........since the vibration is really strong it shakes the phone so it also bounces back and forth of the ground
u could try it by decreasing the vibration to a minimal vibration and try to see if it works, let me know how that works, could change my mind on this.....

If the phone is ringing and you want to ignore the call, simply turn it over and lay it face down. The ringer will go to silent and the caller will be sent to voicemail at the end of the rings.
Anyone else have any other little tricks?
Edit: This is different from the "quiet phone on pickup" feature/preference. This will 100% silence your phone and works wether that preference is set or not.

I like the fact that the screen turns off when it's up to your face.
You can get an app like LED desire light to use the led flash as a VERY bright flashlight

I tested it and it doesn't work for me.
What would be nice is to have it go to speaker phone like my TP2 did when face down.

I'm torn on this, it's a cool feature... but sometimes I feel I pull it away from my face and instinctively go to turn it on when I notice the screen is off, then as I am pressing the power it turns on and then back off!
Thankfully I am slowly getting used to it and subconsciously knowing that it'll turn on...
I forgot to say that flipping it over doesn't shut the ringer off on mine.

wierd it works for me
Wonder if it is a setting somewhere in the phone menu or possibly an app. I am going to guess an app. What happens when you are in a call and flip it over?
Use LED Light with Camcorder and Video with flash.
not really a software trick, but... the fact that fingerprints get cleaned off after keeping the phone in the pocket some some time. Hop in the car, drive around, pull out the cell to do some GPS, screen is CLEAN aka. no glare

Menu >> Settings >> Sound & Display >> Quiet ring on pickup
Check mark it to enable or vice versa.
Does the updated text selection feature count as a 'trick'? I don't remember having it on my 2.1 ROMs for the Hero. Either way, it's infinitely better. (To me).

I already have it enabled. I know that my ringtone goes quiet when I pick it up. I had my GF call me and I flipped the phone over and it didn't go to VM on her side.

Who said anything about flipping the phone over sending the call to voicemail ? It only quiets the ringer, until the call ends up being routed to VM normally

I've only gotten that to come up once for me and I don't know how I did it. It's just like the iPhone though.
Anyone know of an app that will switch the phone to speaker phone if you place it face down? ....found one it is called Flip Speakerphone
Thanks! Flip Speakerphone is awesome!

I don't think a mod is required for this.
Doesn't Settings > Sound > Uncheck "Quiet ring on pickup" do this for you?
not exactly
this option gives you a posibility to quiet a ring when your phone make a move during a call(doesnt matter in which direction).
But even if you turn this option off,ring will end if you put your device on a screen
Untick the above option and it should ring with out quiten ring tone. Works with my Desire.
The OP is right: the phone still goes silent when turned face down even with that box unticked.

Hmmmm intresting....as mine doesn't just tested.
Strange....
so, any interesting ideas?
Hey folks Ive tried everything with this phone but just can't get it to vibrate and I really can't recall it ever vibrating. I've seen in other forums that others are having the same problems but there didn't seem to be a solid fix. The phone will not vibrate during calls or notifications of any kind when I have it set to always vibrate or vibrate during silence mode. I've gone to all of my messaging applications as well to select the vibrate function and it still doesn't work. Need help if possible.
Thanks,
go to sound settings and check vibration intensity...might be off??

Doesn't work, I have the intesity all the way actually. Also when I move the sensitivity levels the phone doesn't give any feedback. I think the vibrate engine may be blown.
Are you on power saving mode?

I've been reading a bit into this and it seems a few people are having issues with the way Jelly Bean handles notifications and vibration.
With ICS, my phone only vibrated when it was in VIBRATE from the drop down menu (imagine!). If I had it set to SOUND, sounds would play whenever the phone rang/beeped/clicked/messaged/emailed/facebooked, but would NOT vibrate.
If I wanted the phone to sound AND vibrate I would check that box under Settings>Sound>Ringtone and Notifications.
Now with Jelly Bean, my phone plays sound AND vibrates (even if this is unchecked in Settings>Sound). I can disable this by unchecking "also Vibrate when notified" under Messaging>Menu>Settings>Notification Settings, but if I do the phone won't vibrate for ANY text notifications, even when the phone is in VIBRATE.
This is driving me crazy. I only want the phone to vibrate if I can't hear it.
Has anyone else run into this and/or figured out a work around? I feel like these are all a bunch of toggle switches and the right combination of them will allow me make the phone operate how I want it to. :\
(shameless bump)
No one has experienced any issues with the notification system overhaul, eh?

I've noticed something odd - after an unknown/random amount of time of using my phone, when I cycle through the Vibrate/Mute/Sound on settings (in the notification window), the phone will vibrate when it gets set to Sound. Previously it would only ever vibrate when it's set to Vibrate. If I reboot the phone this issue goes away. I'm wondering if some app that I had opened has a notification setting where it always vibrates, even when the sound is on.
I have this issue. Not annoying enough yet to look for a fix though. I hipe I dont get a bunch of texts tonight haha

It's driving me crazy! I love the improvements JB has brought but I'm seriously thinking of going back to ICS because of it!
This could be patched with a hotfix I'm sure. Smaller things have been!
Thank you for your post. I have the same problem and waiting for a fix...i wonder if jb 4.2 has a fix?
Hi all. I sent my handset away to HTC for a repair (mic didn't work). I think they updated the software/firmware on it because I can no longer set my handset to silent without turning on the Do Not Disturb mode. Before I could lower the volume to silent and turn off vibrate and it was great. I don't like do not disturb because it puts a stop to notifications and calls. Is there a way to mute everything and have no vibrate but still get all calls and all notifications? Also I can no longer copy custom notification tones into the system folder. It's now read only >.< Any way around this without rooting my phone? Thanks in advance for any and all help
