Hi Guys,

Just noticed today that my when i set my phone to 'silent mode' it switches back to general mode after a few seconds (the silent icon in the status bar disappears and phone defaults back to general mode).

Tried using desktop command widgets to set phone to silent but still have same problem?

Can anyone advise/suggest what i could do to fix this problem?

Thanks

The only short term measure i've found is too set desktop command widgets to update interval - every 30 seconds. Gives me greater chance of the phone being on silent when i'm in the office, on train, etc

sure you don't have any misbehaving widget, misbehaving event (alarmed), or any profile-related addon?

post the output of maemo-list-user-packages here

not sure about any misbehaving widgets? i have been adding alot more calendar entries lately (alarmed events) but not sure whether this has any relation to the problem?

BUMP

Any ideas or am i left with 'reflash' only option?

it's a looooooong shot but worth a try at least

per-contact-ringtones 1.0.3-0 user/system 296
digiclockwidget 0.5.0 user/desktop 244
desktop-cmd-exec 1.10 user/desktop 144
volumecontroldaemon 0.1.2 user/utilities 108

try removing those. they're the only packages that ring "change profile!" to me

Thanks for ur support man. I remember installing a headphone volume booster app recently? Can't remember the name but i think i'm gonna try remove that first becaue the other apps u mentioned i've had for a long time with no issues?

On another note, i use alot of desktop command widgets. Maybe 40 + some of these use the command script for 'general profile'. I have double-checked each widget to make sure its not automatically switching the phone back to general when switching desktops etc. You don't think that a high number of desktop command widgets could be causing the issue?

thanks

you just could have missed one while checking.

Turns out i had 2 dcw widgets that were still interrupting the silent mode! Everything is back to normal again
