Hi everyone, I'm currently unlocked and running the latest CM9 by jokersax. I usually set my phone to silent overnight, but I need to find a way to have a certain number always ring, regardless of the silent setting. I've tried a few market apps like SemiSilent and Selective Silence but they don't work. I don't know if it's the phone or ICS causing them not to work. Does anyone know of a way I can accomplish this? Thanks!

I use Tasker, but it's got a hell of a learning curve. However, you can set it up so if a call comes through from a specific contact it will temporarily turn the ringer volume up, then turn it back down. If you're genuinely interested, I can help you out setting up a Tasker profile to do that. Otherwise, not sure what else does what you want.

Night ringer... its in the app store works great you can set up to 5 different contacts and it will also let those contacts texts to you come thru also if you want.
Please try Automateit
Try AutomateIt available on google play and customize it as per your requirement.
Select a silent ringtone as default then just edit the contact you want to ring loud with another ringtone, done.

I've tried a few different apps and selected different sounds but they aren't playing. Any ideas why?
Because you're on vibrate?
Kidding of course. Try seeking out your own notification sounds online. Down load them as mp3 files, plug in your phone, then drop them in /media/audio/notifications ringtones would go into /media/audio/ringtones....this is o n your internel storage, btw. They should then be applied in the usual way.
Much better options are out there online vs market apps. Just google "notification tones"

I don't follow, I just want to use my built in notifications. For example i'm using trillian for an instant messenger and want to use my Facebook pop tone. I select it and all the other tones I tried as well, none of them play.
It's actually not playing any notifications, in my sound settings I have the volume i'm sliding up and down and still didn't make any sounds
Strange. Is the phone stock, rooted, etc?
Have you recently run an update?
And last, does it make any sound when you receive a call?

Hi guys:
Since I am quite new to here with less posts, I can not post this question to the development forum yet. But I hope someone can help me on the Rom modifications.
The AT&T Note is my first Android device. I like it and rooted and flshed with the modified Saurom VIIa already. But I just could not find a way to ture off the voice alarm on new email arrival.
In stock rom, I only hear a pin drop sound notification of new emails, which is perfect. However, in the Saurom, I now get a female voice alter "one new email" which is annoying when it is quiet or during a meeting. I search almost everywhere on my note and just could not find a way to turn it off. Did I miss anything or is this a "built-in" feature for the Saurom?
Again, I am sorry to post the question here, since I could not potst in the development forum yet. Thanks a lot for your help!
Turn off driving mode in settings.

I had the same problem if you're talking about a sound notification of a new email, only mine was set to a loud and irritating siren noise.
You have to open up the email app and go to menu -> settings and there is a notification section where you can disable or change the tone.

Thanks for the reply. But I was talking talking about "sound" notice, which is fine and can be turn off. I was talking about the "voice" notification, which tells you (in a female voice) "one new email". I can't turn the lady off. Not sure where and how to get rid of it

Where is driving mode? I could not find it in settings......
Sorry this is my first Android device, and not very familiar with the settings yet......
Do these steps:
Settings
Voice input and output
Text to speech settings
Uncheck driving mode
That should take care of it!

Thanks! Got it!
Is there any way to turn the voice prompts off? That is, when I open a folder or go to edit home screen, my phone "talks" and it is quite annoying.
Thanks!

Having the same issue
I'm also having the same issue as you. I think there might be an app in the app store to fix it. I'll try to do some research about it. If i find out any more info, I will let you know.
I have problem also, is this allready fixed somewhere?
+1 this is really annoying! Only way to make sure its not going to shout at you in silent situations is to put media volume to 0. Still effort though, kinda ridiculous.
Driving mode on/off
Or
In setting, accesebilities Talkback ...on/off.............It's for blind and/or disability.

Just go to app manager and disable Samsung TTS and Google Text-to-speech. now my touchwizz dont talk anymore
Before the ota I used volume ace for managing my profiles. I'm on call.moat nights and I am able to just have it ring, and everything else is silenced. I have tried quick profiles, toggle profiles, profiles etc. Everyone I am having the same issue. I set a profile and after an incoming call.comes in, the profile goes back to something else and all my notifications are audible again. Frustrating at 3 am when I get an email from sams club and it wakes me up, thinking its a call for work.
So my question, does anyone know of a profile app that I can set specific profiles to have certain things ring and others vibrate or be silent? It was possible with volume ace and gingerbread.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, in ICS, Ringer and Notifications are linked together.
They are unlinked on CyanogenMod9, but not on any Sense ROMs.
The easiest workaround is to set the notification sound to be a silent mp3 file.

Okay, that is completely idiotic. Is that actually in ICS or is it something HTC did?
I hope they fix that.

It was a decision by Google for ics.
That's why we have cm9.

You could set the mail app when to check for mail overnight. Change the off peak times to when you would be sleeping, and have it set to manual to check for messages. During the day from 7 am to 7 pm are my peak times and it's set for push. Off peak is set to manual. I have no need to auto receive emails at night. If I think I'm going to get one I need, you can check manually. This won't work if you use the native gmail app, but you can add your gmail through the HTC mail app.
Just a side note, I use handcent for texting and I've discovered (never knew it before) that you can set individual tones for specific people when they text you. That was one thing I missed from my blackberry. Not anymore

I use audio control 3.00 in the play store but well worth it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ce.volume.master&feature=search_result#?t=W10.
Also a Free lite version

Hope this helps
there's also ringer control. only difference is not able to adjust speakerphone
Hello, after a full day of googling, messing my device up, and headaches - here I am.
Before I go any further it would probably help to explain my device configuration. I have a galaxy player, which has no mobile data or cellular capabilities (essentially a phoneless galaxy S), running unnoficial cm9 ICS. Because cm9 hasn't been optimized for media players, I still have the phone features such as the dialer built-in.
My goal is to get google voice working with the sip feature on the cm9 dialer. Through the help of pbxes.org and trial and error, I have mostly succeeded. The one minuscule yet painfully crippling issue I have is the ringtone doesn't play when I receive a call, even though it vibrates and shows the call screen normally. Now before you ask the painfully obvious; YES I tried setting a new ringtone, NO my device isn't in silent mode, and YES my volume is turned up.
I haven't tried a data reset yet, but that is last resort as I have no way to nandroid. I was wondering if this is a bug with cm9 or ICS in general, or a device specific issue I have. I would be so thankful if anyone that has experienced this and possibly found the solution could share it! Thank You.
I'll take silence as a sign no one else has this issue?

You know I do use a third party app but to have this ability would be kind if awesome. Right now I use groove ip but have the dialer would be cool. Have you tried with another dialer or do you not want it?

I have looked at other dialers but none of them have the sip capabilities. I also tried some sip clients like sipdroid - which rang fine, although interestingly simplecsp fails to ring just like the stock dialer. I am thinking it is a bug with our cm9 since system ui sounds also seem to not play.

There is no settings with in settings that allows you to put the ringtone so you might have to do it the way I did it. The way was is you have to download zedge and find the ringtone you want and then download it and then it hit set as and it will ask you what you want to set it as and set it as your ringtone and it'll work

Hmm, I have no problem setting ringtone.
I have made several important discoveries;
The reason the system UI sounds don't work is because the system volume is set to 0 and can't be adjusted in the system settings, but I used AudioManager to turn it up. Now system UI sounds work fine but still no ringtone.
Another discovery is when I set poweramp to not pause for incoming calls, I hear the ringtone! It plays over poweramp, but this is a huge clue to my problem.
