Sometimes when receive incoming call, phone won't ring, just vibrate. That's happening randomly, sometimes it's ok for 2 days and then start, sometimes on every couple of calls, for 2-3 calls it's not ringing and then start to ring normally again... Of course, I'm not in silent mode, volume is set to max, when enter settings and select ringtone, it plays fine...
This start when I upgrade to Lollipop, on stock rom and custom roms, tried 4-5 roms, all Sense. I run RUU for couple of times, for clean start of new rom, my firmware is up to date, but it happens every time, so I think it is Lollipop problem, not rom.
Is anyone experienced this problem too, or know some solution?
Thanks.
So no one have this problem? For everyone phone rings fine every time?
Try to restart the phone. It will solve the problem for you. My wife's phone had same problem and that's what I did.
Yes, I restart the phone and the problem re-apear shortly, so that is not the solution.
m8 problem
I have the same fcking problem for over 2-3 months now and I think it's lollipop problem, it's very annoying every day I got dozens of missed calls ...i don't know what to do, did you find anything ?? Thanks
Did you set some ringtone which came with Lollipop, or some of yours personal ringtones?
I always use my ringtone, simple mp3 file, but I select one of pre-installed ringtone about 3 weeks ago and have no problem since. Don't know why, but it seems that Lollipop have some problems with some mp3 files. Those files plays perfectly well in any music app on phone, but if you set it like ringtone, sometimes ringing and sometimes not.
I found some program that helps to "convert files to Android-playable" so I convert my mp3 ringtone with that program (still mp3, but larger size) and will see if that helps.
I have done it today so must pass week or two to be sure if it helps or not, will post here.
So, my converted ringtone didn't work. Then I tried to put the mp3 file in to /system/media/audio/ringtones where the other ringtones are, but that didn't work either. I noticed that most of stock ringtones are in .flac format, so I converted my ringtone to .flac and it worked! My phone rings normally for 2 weeks now.
So, if anyone have problem with their custom ringtones, just convert them to .flac format with any sound converter on PC and that will be fine.
Ok I will do it your way, just to inform you, I did a factory reset for nothing same as before everything is working like, notification sound, message sound, music player but still no incoming sound, this is a really fcked up thing, it's nothing to repair the software is fcked up I guess,I am so dissapointed
Just convert your ringtone to .flac format with any free converter (ask Google), and it will be fine. For me, it's working over the month now.
The ringtone sound is fine now(tried it your way), but now I have another problem with mic, when someone tries to call me they can't hear me only on speaker mode, really mad now X(.
It might look silly, but try to make G calibration (Settings>Display & gestures>G-sensor calibration)

I've had a O2 XDA Orbit for about 3 months now without any problems, but it seems to devloped a strange fautl today.
This morning (around 7am) the alarm went off as usual, but come about 10 when I tried to make a phone call the call was placed but I could not hear the other person (and she could not hear me). I checked out the phone and noticed that both volume sliders where set to off, changing them and I still could not get any sound out of the device.
In Settings Sounds & Notifications when I press the play button theres no sound, and trying the built in sound/video/midi results in no sound.
Oddly when someone calls, I changed the ring tone to an mp3 wich will play, but again I cant hear the caller, or they hear me.
I've done a soft reboot, with no help, before I tired a hard reset I was wondering if anyone else had any ideas?
I'm having exactly the same problem. If anyone has any advice regarding this I'd be greatly apperciated!
So I had a TP2 (from Telus) for approximately 2 months with the stock ROM. I put some custom ringtones on it, and set it up to play a sound and vibrate on incoming calls, incoming SMS, incoming e-mail.
When I first start the device, everything works fine for a while, however, after some period of time (varies) the audible alerts for SMS and e-mail stop working...still works for incoming calls (so it's not muted or anything).
Randomly, the vibrate feature will stop "working" as well, it won't completely stop working, but instead of a long vibrate, I get ONE vibrate (like you get when you push a key on the soft keyboard).
I upgraded to an EnergyROM WinMo6.5 ROM last night, and this afternoon this problem surfaced AGAIN.
Any solutions / thoughts?
Thanks
convert your sounds into another format.

What format?
All three (including the phone ringer, which always works) of the sounds-in-question are MP3s.
Try using WMA
though I must say my TP2 works fine with MP3 media as well.
same thing happens mine too. mostly ok but sometimes no sound from my tp2 or different ring tones. I have original rom
Nope. This is most likely a hardware issue, unless you are running a non-ATT device. The format has nothing to do with it; the device can actually play movie files (audio portion) without a single problem, even when on the storage card. It sounds like a hardware problem about the vibrate thing. But, that notification thing sounds pretty much software. Try with the stock sounds and see if it makes a difference then put the custom ones on main memory and try again.
Hi, I've got a question, that is if anyone else knows this problem or how to solve it.
I have an .mp3 ringtone located in the media/mp3 folder on my SD. Now when I receive a call, the ringtone starts but stops after one second or so - display still shows the call, however the phone is mute, doesn't even vibrate.
Any ideas?
is the vibrate settting on ? and is your mp3 corrupted ?
Yep it's one, the mp3 is perfectly fine. Now when I rebooted the phone, it worked correct again, but at some point it's the same issue again.
I have googled, and it seems that it's not a Defy specific issue, but happens on many Android devices. Closing random processes and rebooting seems to help, yet it's annoying...
So this problem I have had I am assuming since the first day I bought the phone. Everytime I try to change the ringtone, no matter what ringtone I change it to, it somehow always defaults to this "kimchee" ringtone. It would sometimes ring to the ringtone I change it to but for the most part it would ring to the "kimchee" ringtone. The odd thing about it is that I can't find this "kimchee" ringtone anywhere on my phone. It's nowhere to be found, so I dunno how it's ringing to that ringtone. I am not rooted so I can't look too deep in the system files. I've tried a hard reset and clearing the media storage cache and none of those options work. Clearing the cache worked for a day and then somehow went back to the "kimchee" ringtone when I get calls. Anyone have this happen to them or have a fix? Thanks.
No one else has run into this problem?
I read your post yesterday and to be honest, it was rather amusing reading your post. I don't really know how you got this kimchee ringtone. By the way u know what kimchee mean?? Its a traditional Korean side dish which is chilly pickled cabbage lol... Maybe u got that ringtone specially made for you by LG??
This is the weirdest problem:
My phone doesn't ring. My phone makes no sound at all. When I change ringtone in Settings I don't hear the tone I select. When I play a song with a player, no sound. And... the player freezes its timer almost immediately, as if it decides to stop since it can't make itself heard.
However, when I pair with a BT headset, all sounds are there. The only salient thing is that ringtones sound very distorted and slow, while sounds from a player or radio are OK.
When did this start? I really don't know. I first suspected Macrodroid (which had a scenario where notification sounds were turned off at night), but I don't think that's it.
What did I try: I even tried a factory reset but even in a pristine state it won't make a sound.
Could this mean that the speaker is broken? Is there a sure way to check this?
Rooted H815, stock rom V10a
Well, went to Service Menu with 277634#*#. Tried Ringtone. No sound.
But... when I get a call and turn to speakerphone, it works. So the speaker's OK. ???
Hello, I just had no sound when playing music/video, when I play them nothing comes out of the speaker but I did restart and everything is ok now. That's weird I almost thought that something is wrong with my speaker/phone. Has anyone experienced same problem?
P.S. Just before doing this I connected my device to PC and uploaded new songs.
