SMS notification sound goes to silent in some time after 6.1.1.b.1.54 and 6.1.1.b.1.75 update.

Is is due to other sound notifications (in many aplications like facebook, yahoo, etc).

You can try to fix it by SUS or PCC but the problem comes back...

It is STILL NOT FIXED...

SONY, please fix it in Jelly Bean !!!!

It is one of two most annoying problems (the second bug is half-dark photos on 8 mpx) Slightly_frowning_Face

The problem still continues. Not fixed till now.

The various steps that I have done is below:

1. Checked whether its in silent mode. But its was not in silent mode.

2. Checked and changed the notification tones. No use.

3. Unistalled all the suspected apps like nimbuzz, alarm, sms pro etc. No use.

4. Repaired using pc companion. ie went to factory setting. It worked out for some hours. But after certain hours, the problem again started.

So I request sony to take necessary corrective steps to solve this problem in the next update and provide us the update as soon as possible.

frnds..i have found a workaround for this problem..the issue is because of the USSD code running after we make a call. So what we can do is set default notification tone to silent and keep separate notification tone for your text messages, email, fb notifications, gtalk etc by individually going into the setting of the respective apps. It will work fine after that. The defect is not a Sony one. It is present in all android ICS devices and hence it is google to be blamed.

as i said earlier put your default notification to silent or none !! then choose different tones for messages, your facebook apps, watsapp etc and reboot once and your problem is solved !! Nauseated_Face

I got the same problem with z2, no sounds from any selective default ringtone.. Only alarm.clock is working.. I reset the phone twice and there is no.problem right after the set up, but after a few hours it back to a previous problem. Now, I am just using the phone vibration for incoming calls and notifications.
