[Q] Ring Once Only - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I posted this the other day. It never showed up? Did someone delete it?
Anyways - My phone just seems to ring only once when I call it. It will continue to ring through but only without ringing. If I put vibrate as a choice it will vibrate but other wise it just is silent and rings until voicemail.
I don't have a profile setup for ring that I can see.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Noticed this myself, it doesn't seem to loop the ring tone but will continue to vibrate

I think the problem may lie with the audio file. It seems to loop with the default ringtones but not with custom. May need to set the audio files to loop?

What kind of audio format are you using?
In a German board some guy had this issue with .ogg and could fix it by using . mp3 instead.
Haven't checked by self cause I always pick up the phone instantly.

I am using the the standard ring tones with the Nexus. It's called Digital Phone.
I have tried all the rings tones and they all do the same exact thing. Ring once and then silence or If the setting is changed to Ring and Vibrate then it will vibrate..
Update: I did notice something after playing around with it a little longer. Even though one of the included ring tones is Ditigal Phone and many others. There are many tones that start from D-Z do not loop when you are testing the tones. Any ringtone from Digital Ring Tone and below do not loop in playback.
So that must be the case for me at least. Anyone test it out and confirm?
When playing ringtones to see if they loop - I can't get anything from Digital RingTone and below to play in a loop for testing.

[Q] Phone Ringer only Rings Once

Has anyone experienced this problem?
The phone rings Once and then is silent for the rest of the rings.
I have several ring tones so its not that. Just thought maybe just maybe it was the Digital Phone ringtone.
There isn't a setting for ring once that I could find.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I'm experiencing the same issue using the regular digital phone ringtone. Has anyone figured out how to fix this?
Is this with stock ringtones or your own? If the later you're probably missing the
ANDROID_LOOP TRUE
field in your file info.
See here for how to fix it:

Why does my ringtone sound funny? [Solved]

Problem: Instead of playing the selected ringtone when I get phone calls I hear the bonk sound hear when I adjust my volume? This remains even after reboot.
Solution: It was an application called CallBlocker. I had enabled a setting called Pre-Mute Ring which was causing the issue.
Call controll does work very well, however this feature does have a caveat indicating it might not work correctly on all phones. I think the purpose is to mute the ring until it can identify if the call is on the blacklist or not. After that, I think it's supposed to unmute so you can hear the ring.
I finally figured it out after numerous reboots and a kernel upgrade. The problem remained so I figured it had to be some piece of software that messed with the call settings.

Ring loud for specific contact(s)

I would like my phone to ring loudly when certain contacts call.
I have tried AutoRing. Tried using Tasker profile from http://tasker.wikidot.com/alwaysringonimportantcontact
Nothing seems to work at all. The phone rings but no sound. If my (Tasker) profile switches off silent/vibrate mode at 7am, then ringtone volume works fine. It's only when I'm in silent/vibrate mode that volume does not increase/go loud for the specific contact.
It appears to be happening on SGS devices. My auto ring/whitelist never rang loud when I had an SGS3 either.
Has anyone successfully been able to have their phone ring loudly from a specific contact with their TMo SGS4?
I'm stumped! Help...please!

How about if you put a custom ringtone on for the specific contacts you want, and just make that ringtown a louder MP3?
You can even use the same ringtone as everyone else, but make a new file that has the levels turned up. Take the current ringtown, put it on your computer, raise the volume and resave it as ringtone2.mp3 and then apply that louder version to the specifc contacts.
It's a more circuitous route, but if the easier stuff isn't working it's worth a shot.

no ringtone on phone calls?

So kind of a weird issue that I've never experienced even on custom Roms. My phones ringtone has stopped working. It will vibrate and always receives calls, I have notification sounds and alarms work just fine but the phone never actually rings it only vibrates. I've tried all the setting thru the quick menus and digging thru the settings. I've tried changing ringtones, using different ringtones, vibration on and off and I can't figure it out. This is a recent problem as the the ringtone did work before but has stopped since. Any help would be appreciated.

get zedge from play store get any ringtone download then set as default ringtone see if that works
I'm pretty sure that I've been having issues with it not ringing properly when in my pocket. Either it's not ringing at all or it's so quiet it's inaudible. I just turned off "pocket mode" and "quiet ring on pickup" in sound settings. Haven't got the chance to test whether one of those settings is the cause yet, but I have a feeling one of them is.

[Q] "Kimchee" ringtone keeps ringing. On my LG G3 for Sprint

So this problem I have had I am assuming since the first day I bought the phone. Everytime I try to change the ringtone, no matter what ringtone I change it to, it somehow always defaults to this "kimchee" ringtone. It would sometimes ring to the ringtone I change it to but for the most part it would ring to the "kimchee" ringtone. The odd thing about it is that I can't find this "kimchee" ringtone anywhere on my phone. It's nowhere to be found, so I dunno how it's ringing to that ringtone. I am not rooted so I can't look too deep in the system files. I've tried a hard reset and clearing the media storage cache and none of those options work. Clearing the cache worked for a day and then somehow went back to the "kimchee" ringtone when I get calls. Anyone have this happen to them or have a fix? Thanks.
No one else has run into this problem?
I read your post yesterday and to be honest, it was rather amusing reading your post. I don't really know how you got this kimchee ringtone. By the way u know what kimchee mean?? Its a traditional Korean side dish which is chilly pickled cabbage lol... Maybe u got that ringtone specially made for you by LG??
