Incoming call - no alert (no sound) - only vibrate works

[ecoenator]

Incoming call: no alert  - After upgrade to Kernel 3.0.08+  build 6.1.1.B.1.54 incoming calls don't give any sound. I can manage to get the 'Vibrte on Ring' working but no alert sound ! Hence I miss many incoming calls. Silent mode = 'Off' Please help.

If I select a different ringtone using Sound Picker - the 'music' doesn't play neither.

Please help

Hi there,
Seems like everyone is suffering with the new contacts app and phone. There is a trick with stamina mode, but that also show's some bug's from time to time.

I personally replaced the original phonebook application with this one (xperia z's phonebook) -

After replacing it, calls are working as they are ment to. You can also add some applications at stamina mode, it will make it better but not fix it. Replacing it worked perfectly for me.

Also tried Repair with SUS, Factory Reset, you can try it too, but for me it didn't work.

This method does not require root.

Xperia P - After upgrade to Kernel 3.0.08+  build 6.1.1.B.1.54

No ringtone on incoming calls

No alert when receiving SMS

So the most basic function of a phone is missing and makes the phone useless.

The issues and problems with Xperia P keep on coming.

If SONY goes bankrupt I wouldn't be surprized.

I will never advice someone to by a SONY Xperia - My advice will be : Stay away from this junk collection.

Tried PC Companion - reinstalled update and NOTHING

Still the same problem of no RING tone remains - no SMS alert

Why did I buy a SONY XPERIA P ? Sure fits in the 10 dumbest things i did in my life.

Can only hear incoming ringtone call when head set is connected !

So I will need to carry an external loud speaker - very practical for a mobile phone !

PIECE of SHIT

Well, if you're going to go ahead and keep whining about your life choices it's your choice, go ahead. I'm pretty sure this can't even be called a problem. Seriously doubting now if you are one of those guys who Samsung pay's to leave bad comments on forums. Just take a look at this topic. Look at your self.

Rubin Owniz: what's the purpose of a phone that doesn't ring ?

So I'm looking for help

I can only watch movies or hear the ringing when the headset is plugged in.

So this must be a software bug as I can hear the person during the telephone call.

Did you follow my advice to fix it? If it didn't work tell me what up?

I don't know what to download from that page.

And what will work on Xperia P ?

Good, you finally started understanding that doesn't matter how much you whinne ur not gonna win anything. Anyway, before you have to do a factory reset. It might fix everything. You can do a Factory Reset from Settings.
This will probably fix most of the issues you have. If it doesn't fix, go to the link of the page above, and scroll down to Downloads and download v03. Unzip it, throw it at your phone and install it; That's pretty
much it.

One question: Is your phone rooted and what's your current android version? If it's rooted make sure you back up everything.
