this is my concern also, I want my phone to ring and to be able to hear it, so shutting off the sound completely, flipping it over, etc, don't work.

i know I can edit the wave file to a blank file, but use those alerts for other things.
it seems that there should be some reg setting somewhere that can be modified, but I have yet to find it.

so for now I charge my phone before bed and then unplug it.

my battery life hasn't been an issue so I haven't seen the need to leave it on the charger all night.
