Taking headphones out makes phone change sound? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running CM10, but this also happened in CM9 and a few other ROMS. If my phone is on silent and I plug my headphones in, my phone will go into vibrate. If my phone isn't on silent and I plug/unplug my headphones it'll go into vibrate or silent mode. It's really annoying. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

There is an option to "link" both settings. IIRC, they are seperate by default.

[Q] Notification sounds not playing through headphones

Curious if anyone else has noticed this / knows how to "fix" it.
When I have my headphones plugged in, the notification sounds (eg the default new message "whistle") comes out the speaker instead. The sound in the headphone (music) will mute during this. I've had to resort to turning the notification volume off during work hours, so the sound doesn't disturb others at work - surely these sounds should be coming through headphones while they are plugged in?
Hello,
I'm with the same issue! It's very odd...
Any thoughts about this? Btw, I'm not using stock headset (I'm not used to in-ear headphones).
Yeah add another +1 to this....!!!
Not tried with stock headphones I have a set of Bluetooth ones and I get all notifications through them .
I'll take look in settings .

Oh yes of course, seems like a hardware then to me .

Actually I double check again, theres a "notification" sound going through headset. the only problem is it's playing simultaneously with the phone speaker. Really annoying specially if I'm in the office cause others can hear the notification sound too.
An android bug, apparently

This is a long-standing Android bug that manifests on many, though not all, phones. Google for "android notification sounds headphones" and you find many complaints about it, and a Google bug report with comments going back to 2010.
There is a apparently an easy way to patch it if your phone is rooted (though I cannot find info on exactly HOW) and there is a script here on XDA for use with the Tasker app ($6 or so in the Playstore) that can address it.
Other than that, the only thing to do to minimize annoyance to your coworkers is turn notification sounds to silent when using headphones. There are volume profile apps that can do this automatically.
In this bug report https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6696 and this one https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16667 it said that's a problem with ICS, that is supposed to be fixed in JB and that CM have their own fix for this.
Let's hope that S3 JB release will fix it.
this problem has been bugging me too..hope its fixed in the next update.

Truncated / Cut short SMS Notifications

Hi guys,
I'm having a weird bug with SMS notifications on my S3, when I get a text it will cut short or sometimes not even play the notification sound. I've tried various tones, restarting the phone, changing the settings off - reboot - turn setting back on, but nothing is sorting it... Anyone else had this issue and been able to resolve it?
Thanks,
J
Same problem here, its totally random.
I've noticed this myself a few times as well.
I had it, I changed to a different notification sound and that fixed it. Not sure if you can go back after? Whistle annoyed me so didn't try.

Do you keep your phone screen down on a table, there's a motion settings to mute ringtones if the phone is placed screen down on a table.

I am having the exact same issue, although it only appears to do it with custom sounds that I have added, I have not been able to replicate it using stock sounds

thanks for that fireboypr. I've just bumped my message limit to see if this helps the issue and if this resolves it, will have to remember why!

CM10 - ringtones but no other sound

I installed CM10 and it was doing fine for a while, but suddenly any sounds other than the ringtone itself and the click sound of selections nothing plays anymore. Notifications/alerts are just silent even though they show up in the list and are apparently detected. Did I trigger some sort of bug?

I've had the same issue happening. Not sure which nightly it started with as I've been pretty much updating almost every day. I think I may just wipe and do a fresh install with the latest nightly build, though I don't want to
Go into settings/sound/volumes and try moving the sliders around, it seems to re-activate the sounds...

For me just pressing volume up or down fixes it.

The resolution for me (repeatable for the other notes that CM10 was installed on as well) was to go into a sound selection for some notification, pick a sound and then click vol-up a few times while it's supposed to be playing.

[Q] Sound Profile help?

So, i really want my ringer on all the time, i usually don't get many calls but the ones i get are important. So is there a way to set all other notifications (text, email, ect) to vibrate while its still in the sound profile so my phone still rings?

I wanted the same thing. I think the best way to do it is using an app called Smart Profiles. I haven't actually tried it yet though.

Can't you do this natively?
By going into Settings>sound>volumes and setting ringtone to max and everything else to silent (slider all the way to the left should be silent), and make sure Ringtone with vibration is checked in the sound settings as well?
It should make calls full volume (with vibration) and everything else on vibrate only.
Or am I mistaken/not understanding the request?

Good call. I was thinking he wanted this profile only at certain times, but that's not stated in the OP, just my assumption.

Go to Settings-> Sound and then turn haptic feedback on.

And if that doesn't help then take Power Saving mode off.

I think beyond a vibrator (giggle) failure these are the two most logical options.
I have the opposite problem. My back, home and menu buttons vibrate when I touch them. How can I disable the vibration? I'm using android 4.2.1
This are my current settings.
