Maybe you should look better on this forum...there is an easy way to increase the volume of your omnia...!

I dont know if whe can do something about the increasing ring but sure you can boost the volume!

Because this isn't an issue. It's a function that's installed on many modern phones incuding Nokia and i doubt that you can turn it off.

Even worse, you actually have "increasing ring" in the phone options, but Omnia just ignoring it.
Its actually more like a bug.

All of the Samsung phones I've had have worked the same.

Works okay for me. I just need the phone to make a noise loud enough so that I know I am getting a call. Most of the time I see the call before I hear it as it normally is sitting in front of me on the desk.

Don't need fancy musical scores etc... just a ring which is what I use "Classic Bell".

For other alerts, I use Phone Alarm so that I get repeats...

Not a big deal.

well, at least i know its not just me being an idiot now. i thought for sure that i had set it at something and just didn't know it.
but that 'increasing ring' option is annoying as hell since it does that anyway.

Yes some phones has this function and some hasn't. I know that some Nokias have and another company but i can't remember the name now. It's supposed to start quietly so that you won't need a hearing aid in the future. :rolleyes:

I know that i like this option because it happens a lot to me and it buged me on my P910i because it was really ear shattering. Even runing out of battery was literaly a pain.

Yes, point is that on WM you supposed to have this little combo box in Phone option, where you can actually choose, if you want increasing ring or not.

It works on every WM device, except Omnia.

Is it just me or is it that My Ringtone is too loud? Someone calls me and it starts 1-2 seconds normally and then gets much louder all of a sudden?

I used Ring as an options in Sounds and Notifications.

When I used "increase Ring" its at least slowly going louder, not jumping from low to loud as normal "Ring" does.

Anoying!

Well there is an easy solution for our problem. Decrease the ring loudnes and you're set.

I suppose what you could do is create a ringtone that is much louder for the first second (or however long the quiet bit is) and then drops down so that when it actually plays as a ringtone it's consistent.

Lot of effort that though!

OK, i dont want to be funny here, but I just feel like i must say...


Is this REALY an issue??? Is this slight decrease in volume on your ring tone realy hampering your experience with your phone that you are actually unsatisfied?

I actually dont mind it. At all.

It is such a SMALL detail that it doesnt actually bug me, and that I can live with it.

I think its meant to give you a little pre-warn before the phone kicks in full volume - which can be argued as understandable.

And I feel that all the people that can sit here and complain about such a relatively small issue, can find the time to solve the issue themselves. Either by making the first couple of your seconds louder than the rest, so it balances out, or even cut the first few seconds out completely, leaving the begining blank, so when it does start, it starts full volume.

Those are my solutions. Hope some of you can be constructive and find your own solutions.. Or wait until someone finds the registry hack and announces how to change the delay.

But all this complaining is not constructive and is driving me insane....

[end of my 2c]

This is a discussion. If you are happy with the way the phone works in this regard then fine but this thread is for people who are trying to find ways around it. Discussion is the best way to share ideas and findings but also good to just vent frustration.

People ARE trying to resolve the problem but not everyone is technically skilled enough to find the solution or even know how to try so they come here to see if there is a more skilled person who has managed it. And be sensible, it hardly takes the same amount of time to post a comment in here as it does to resolve a problem like this in software?!

If it's "driving you insane" why are you even reading this thread?!

the thing was frustrating me here (if people can get frustrated about the software, can people get frustrated about the users?) is that people are offering solutions, but it seems like its not good enough people, and so they keep on complaining.

Like I said, if there was some sort communial desire to fix the 'problems or issues' then great, I support that, but when comments are made 'trash talking' the phone just because no solution works best for them, it gets a bit much.

The reason im reading this thread is because im extremely keen on the improvements people are making here regarding software tweaking and hacks, etc.

and while i have seen this topic being an 'issue' before, im interested to see if some software guru out there has found a solution yet to make the people who are annoyed by it happy.

Like for instance, im waiting patiently for some techie to improve on the soft 'send' button during typing messages, as i have often sent half messages. But till the solution has been found, im not going to spend my time bashing the phone, comparing it to others, but spend that time constructively doing more research around the net and in other forums to see if some one else out there has found the solution, and the share it here.

Like I said, my 2c.

Just want to see people WORKING together, than a collection of people who whine because no solutions people offer are good enough for them...
