Question about Sony Ericsson S710a

1 Answer

CHANGES PROFILE on its own; callers can't hear me, and I can't hear them

When I turn off and on my phone, it automatically switches profiles to "port. handsfree", thus disabling my ability to hear/speak without some sort of handsfree device plugged in (I can also use speakerphone, and it will work). I have to manually go into my profile and change it back to normal in order for me to answer the phone regularly (With the sound coming from the handset, and not the handsfree device). NOW my phone does this all the time, as well as not even allow me to hear my caller, or have them hear me. I tried to make a call, I could see that it was connecting and ringing, but I couldnt hear anything. Even though the handsfree icon (that says I am in a profile other than "normal") is no longer there, I still cannot hear anything unless I put it on speakerphone or with a handsfree device. WHen I power on, it starts to play the startup music, but cuts off as if the speakers go out. I can't listen to any of my MP3s, or recorded videos, however I can still hear the shutter sound when i take a picture. How can I fix my phone so that I can hear people speak on it???

    My phone was fine last night and this morning, when I woke up, it had this problem. Also, the "Magic Word" icon was on top too -- I didnt even know what this feature was and had to play around with it to figure out how to make it go away. What causes the speaker to suddenly stop working?

When phone rings there is a voice that tells the number that is calling me.
That is the caller ID function, you may be able to turn it off by changing your ringtone.

    Change Ringtone Automatically when charging
    The BlackBerry gives few profiles to choose from; e.g. Normal, Loud, Quiet, Vibrate.... my recommendation would be to configure each profile separately and just enable/disable the profile you like when you enter/exit your car...

    The phone itself is not capable to switching the profile on its own once it is plugged in to your car charger...

    Hope this was helpful...

    I can not get an outside line or receive incoming calls. A caller just hears ringing but it does not ring in the office
    Hi,
    Actually the profile you are using during the office hours is set in such a way thatall the incoming calls are silient when that profile is switched on. So just go to profiles and change the settings of that particular profile as per your requirements. your phone will act in the same way as you set.
    Thanks
    With regards

    I need help with volume
    You may have selected a profile that does not alert you audibly when you receive messages. You may select a different profile, edit the current profile or create a completely new profile. I'm attaching instructions for creating a profile and editing would be similar except you would select a profile then select "edit" for the menu. Be use you have "tone" or "vibrate and tone" selected and that the volume is not on mute. Always save your changes.

    Create notification profiles
    1.In the profiles list, click the trackwheel.
    2.Click New Profile.
    3.Type a name for the profile.
    4.Click an item.
    5.Click Edit.
    6.Set how you want to receive notification for that item.
    7.Click the trackwheel.
    8.Click Save.
    9.Click the trackwheel.
    10.Click Save.

    To turn on tones when pressing the keys, follow the following instructions:


    Turn on tones when pressing keys
    In the device options, click Screen/Keyboard. Set the Key Tone field to On. Click the trackwheel. Click Save.
