Default Not being alerted of calls or SMS on 8130.

Please Login to Remove!

Starting about three OS 4.5 versions ago, I noticed when someone would call me my phone wouldn't ring when it was set to loud with my ringtone set. I tried other ringtones, it still did this once in a while.

2-3 OS 4.5 versions later, it still does it, and now it sometimes won't sound off my ringtone when I receive an SMS.

Anyone else have this problem, and figure out a way to fix it? I'm missing a lot of calls because of this.

Are you using the preinstalled ringtones. Have you tried to setting up a custom profile? My wife had a similiar issue with her 8130. She ended up getting the 8530 so I didn't pursue the issue.

I'm using my own ringtones. Not sure about the custom profile...all I did was change the ringtones for the loud profile, been doing that since before 4.5OS was ever released. Only over the last few versions of 4.5 have I been seeing this problem.

Still not hearing my ringtones. I can't even manually listen to them, I keep getting told "Media Processor Busy" with "Error Playing" in the top right corner of the screen. Never had this happen before...

If I do a battery pull, it fixes the issue but eventually they'll stop playing again and I'll have to do another battery pull. Anyone else having this issue? I haven't installed anything new, running the most recent OS in the stickies, running GMail / BeeJiveIM / BBWeather...I've been using these apps for over a year with no issues.

Mine has been working lately without needing anymore battery pulls. My guess is that something triggers this issue, and the issue will continue until you do a battery pull. What the trigger is, is beyond me. If I find out I'll let everyone know, including RIM.

The profile in your phone is probably corrupted. At times you may need to go to your desktop, go to a backup and click restore-advanced and move a backed up version of your profile from the PC to your handheld

Mine did it for the first time last week. Approximately 2 weeks ago i upgraded to 4.5.175. It never did it before the upgrade. I previously had 4.5.13something. I reinstalled the upgrade again and it hasnt done it since. If it does it again I will probably downgrade.
