Its been a while since I've needed to ask a question regarding my phone, but this one has me stumped :confused2

On my Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, I will be listening to music on the bus for instance, with the phone being in silent mode. If I recieve a text from someone, the music will briefly blast out of the loudspeaker at full volume for a couple of seconds. This is extremely irritating, as not only does it defeat the purpose of silent mode on the phone, but I can't help but feel embarassed when I get half the bus staring at me :crazy: ...

I have checked the silent mode profile settings and have ensured that all options have been set to their lowest values (either 0 or off). This has had no effect on the issue. I decided to do a Google search on the matter and whilst I could not find anything relating to the 5800 on the issue, I discovered a few select people were having this problem with their N series phone. However, they were able to resolve the issue by creating a new profile with the same settings as their silent mode profile and it would stop the issue from occuring. I have tried the same method on my 5800, but this has sadly not made a difference either.

My only solution currently is to set the phone to offline mode and check for messages when I leave the bus. Since this is less than ideal, I'd rather have the problem sorted. Any suggestions would be appreciated. By the way, silent mode works fine - it is ONLY when I have my headset plugged in and am listening to music that it occurs.

Thanks in advance ;)
 
I have exactly the same problem with my new 5800, did you ever find out a solution to this problem?

Thanks


Jeremy.
 
Nope, unfortunately I'm not sure what's causing it, nor how it can be solved. I'm hoping that it will be ironed out with a new firmware patch. Thanks for letting us know that you have the problem also - at least that establishes that I'm not the only one experiencing this problem.
 
Dear Zaphor92,

Try This:

Select "Pager" from Settings > Personal > Profiles>Silent. Personalize it to turn the warning tones off and then apply. Do not forget to set Vibrate On, so that it vibrates, and does not blast with sound.
 
I have an N series, N70 and others. I also had this problem and tried this method and it worked out for me. You should try this zarphor. Who knows it might also work for you..
 
Thanks for the tip, I shall be trying this as soon as I have some spare time on my hands ;) . I'll post back with the result after testing :) .
