how to silence ringer
 

ok all i want to do is silence the ringer lets say im talking to someone in person and i get a call. i want to answer the call but i dont wanna listen to the ringer i just wanna silence it till im ready. or if i miss a call i got this long annoying ringer for voicemail and sometimes it interrupts something and i just wanna silence it real quick. how do i do that

hitting the left side scroll wheel will do it for you

Are you sure? I am trying to find out how to silence the ringer (or vibrate in my case) without hitting "ignore" and I can confirm the scroll wheel doesn't work for me.

Scroll the wheel, don't click it.

turn down the volume does it. (scroll wheel)

I loved this feature on my a900...phone starts vibrating in class QUICK push every button in my pants till it stops before the ringer starts...wonder if there is a program out there to make every button a silence button while getting a call.

Yep, loved that feature with my a900 too. sigh....:(

yea it works wit incoming calls but no other notifacations...that sucks cuz i want to silence my voicemail notifacation sometimes.

Does this actually work for everybody but me? I've tested and tested and can't get the scroll wheel to silence a call. I've pushed it, spun it, cursed at it, everything you can think of.

Would you guess hardware of software issue? Any way to test that you can think of?

Thanks chopstick89, spinning the scroll wheel worked for me.


I LOVE the Search feature.
