Lost Ringtones On Incoming Calls - LG Optimus G Pro

I was running Ressurection Remix 5.1.1 when I noticed there was no sound when a call would come in. I could answer the call and the conversation would be fine just no ringtones will play. I did a factory reset and clean installed and it work for a few hours and then stopped again. I then installed blisspop and the same thing. All sounds work except ringtones. When I go into setting and change the ringtone nothing plays as I choose differnt ones in the list that comes up. This is getting to be a real problem. I even tried wildkernel with no luck. My phone is an AT&T E980 US model.

Phone ringer is silent!

My phone wont ring though, BIZARRE, this is not to do with the rom though as i think it was happening with schaps, really really strange.
Any ideas, I just get a phone icon where the signal strength bar is showing handset. No callerid flashing up, not even an option to accept the incoming call. I go to phone options and test the ring tone and it plays just fine.
maybe i should reflash the radio, on 1.50 at the mo which i recently flashed to downgrade from 1.51, any ideas?
maybe i miss something totally obvious.
bumppppp? anyone?
same happening to mine on ultra ultra lite re-furbished
i had to flash another rom, then it worked. when i flashed back to same rom it didnt work again. the problem started after i added some cabs and did my regular tweaks. even with the fresh install of the same rom after flashing another rom it still didnt work.. i even changed radios
i'm on ultra lite, and it seems nice. So you saying i should flash another rom then come back to ultra lite?
Ok,
I just reflashed schaps, then flashed ultra lite.
I STILL have this wierd problem, what's going on?
Is my fone knackered? Not much good if it don't ring!
the rom has been discontinued and he is fixing it
known bug.....wait until new relase
shame it's a nice ROM, nice un' quick. fixed yet ?
same here..
I noticed that no sound was coming out of the phone when i did a soft reset and the Schap's Rom boot up with the animation + sound didnt sound. Also my speaker phone does not work. Basically and audible sound does not work!!!! i tried flashing it with dutty's rom, still same problem.. any ideas?
Hope this helps in resolving this issue!
Hi. I've run into this issue myself too. Here's my environment:
Cooked ROM via Pandora's Kitchen 7.1 with 3.61 OS
Using Dutty's Touch Dialer (2G) option in BuildOS
Everything was fine with the ringer for a whole week. I then decided to be a bit adventurous and went to look for a 3g dialer because the Touch one is only 2G. I then settled for Schen's 3G dialer 2.0 and followed his instructions in installing it (install OEMSign2007cert.cab first, then the dialer, which was the one with the dialer directory option). I didn't install any colored background cabs as provided by his package.
When I tested the dialer (outgoing portion), it seemed fine. I couldn't test the 3G option because we don't have 3G here yet. The problem began when I received my first call.
I was able to hear the incoming call beep through my BT headset, but that was the only indicator of an incoming call, in addition to the phone icon above the signal meter in the top bar signifying an incoming phone call. Besides that, there were no other indicator such as a pop-up window showing incoming caller's info, phone ringing, or even the vibrate function. I have my phone set to vibrate and ring with the Ringer-Vision.wma as the default ring tone.
I tested the vibrate and ring setting in the phone configuration panel and both the vibration function and ring tone worked. I tried several configurations such as vibrate only, ring only, etc, in addition to other various ring tones of different format (wma, mid, wav). All resulted in success in the phone configuration panel, but in failure when an incoming call came in.
To test the phone function, I used a land line, a cellular line, and SkypeOut. All three resulted in the same failure observed above.
Given that the only thing changed after that week was the 3G dialer, I proceeded to remove it and reboot. It reverted back to the Touch 2G dialer. When the phone rebooted, I retried the above tests and all resulted in the pop-up dialog with incoming caller information (plus the two softkey functions), vibration function, and the proper ringtone.
With the above results, would it help you guys in further diagnosing and fixing this problem? We are slated to have 3G within the next few months and I would like to be able to use this function.
Thanks!
Edit update: One other thing is that I tested the above both with and without my BT headset on.
Quakie
I do understand what you are talking about how you tested out the ringers in the phone options menu.. but for me any type of sound does not work, i ran tests there no sound, speaker phone does not work, MP3 do not sound. The sound only works through a head set. And when im on a call i could hear the other person and vise versa. So the problem is the speaker just went out after a couple of days of having Schap's rom. I tired flashing another rom a couple of days after. No luck. Any ideas?
-thanks

[Q] Notifications tones suddenly stopped

Hi, I'm running the AOKP JB Milestone 1 ROM on my Nexus. I dropped my phone in some water recently, and immediately switched it off and dried it. After a while, I switched it on and glory be, it was all working fine.
Except some notifications. At first I thought my speaker had broken, because it wouldn't play music or some notification tones (Whatsapp). But when I press the volume button, the beep is there. Plus when I receive texts and calls, the tones play. But the phone dialler tones, the UI 'clicks', my Whatsapp tones, Youtube videos and my music player do not work.
Something to do with 3rd party apps and the sound? Please help!
you should try going recovery, backup. then go reset to factory.
if it still does not work then it should be a hardware problem
terrible luck btw, but good luck!

[Q] Sound Settings Problem

About a month ago I screwed up my phone and had to LGNPST it for the first time. I'm not even sure if this is the moment this problem appeared but it may have been the start of something. Before that, I was running a JB CM build with a GPS lock issue that I never got around to fix and decided to fix it before I flashed a Kit Kat rom. That lead to a bad stock-based flash which then lead to the LGNPST fix. I then flashed to a different stock-based rom, updated PRL and obtained a GPS lock, then flashed a few different roms before settling on the offical CM 11 rom.
Somewhere after the LGNPST I ran into problems with the sound volume settings being completely ignored and this issue appears across multiple roms. I'll have the settings set to silent and it'll still play some odd sound whenever I receive an sms. When I try to change the sounds, nothing plays when I am previewing the sounds and if I select one the settings will crash. The ringtone files do exist in /media/audio/ringtones and they play correctly in Apollo. I have also downloaded Zedge and used it for setting the sounds inside the settings screen and it does not play the sound when previewing and crashes when I select a sound. Setting the ringtone inside of the actual Zedge application does work for the notification ringtone, but does not work with phone ringtone (it does appear to be changed in settings, but no sound is played during calls). Furthermore, when I attempt to set the sound in Hangouts for either SMS or regular hangout messages, it does not change from "Silent" but does not show any crash messages or anything.
In a possibly related note, every time I flash a new rom it will get stuck on activation until I just skip it. However, data services work completely fine. I have no problems with making calls, 3G/LTE, sending and receiving sms including pictures.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sometimes won't ring on incoming calls, just vibrate

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)

Sound for messenger calling

What controls the voice / sound settings when making a call over apps like Facebook messenger?
Currently i am running the emotion rom v16.1 and calls over messenger work great. I switched to the noble rom,which runs great... but I was unable to use messenger to make calls. When I made a call,the call "dialed out" then connected and the recipient was able to hear me but I could not hear them. It worked for a short period of time on speaker but stopped when the screen timed out and I was unable to regain it. When I hit the speaker button you could hear the other end for a split second then gone again. I even tried using earphones and had the same results... split second then gone.
I am running the emotion 6.0.1 rom, v3b of Lou's data fix and stock kernel .
Is there a specific file to alter... change... etc?
