Why does Windows Mobile changes to vibrate automatically?
 

I have an HTC Titan running WM 6.1 (with nueExtROM), but had this problem with Sprint ROM as well.

I use the HTC Home Plugin with the Normal sound profile. However, when my phone is idle for a long time it will switch to vibration mode automatically. This is really annoying because I'll miss calls when the phone's on the charger in another room. If I switch back to the sound profile tab, Normal is still selected. How do I prevent my phone from going into vibration mode automatically?

Also, what does the Automatic sound profile do?

I remember someone once saying that maybe this had to do with appoinments you had in your calendar. i.e. the phone is being slick by going to vibrate mode when you are in an appointment. See if your appointments correspond to when it goes into vibrate mode. Another question (cause I've had this issue too) is does this only happen to people with the HTC Home plugin?

I don't think the appointment thing is true because I've had my phone go off plenty of times in the middle of meetings.

On the other hand, I can't remember having this problem when I didn't have the HTC Home Plugin.

I also have the home plugin installed and exhibit the same symptoms.

Same problem.

I'm using the sound option on HTC plug-in and it still reverts back to vibrate without prompting.

After reading the previous posts, I will try to cycling through the settings again.

Do we have details for the automatic setting on the HTC plug-in?

See this thread:

It is a bug in HTC Home Plug-in. Remove the Profiles tab to fix the problem.

The automatic setting worked along with your calendar. If you set an event and say you are "free" then the sound will be On. If you say you are "busy" then the sound will switch to vibrate. Several other posts around here explain it too.
