Anyways if it is android press the volume key at the side or if it is a button phone look for profiles and activate the profile general or loud if it is iPhone. Flip the little switch at the side to toggle between silent and normal volumes hope i helped :)
To switch off silent mode please follow the below instructions
Menu > Profiles >
You will get following options in it
Normal/General
Silent
Meeting
Outdoor
Pager
Scroll through the normal/General profile and Press selectonce the normal/General profile is highlighted. Scroll to Selectand press Select. Now you are out of silent mode. If the mobile is still in general and in silent mode then follow the below steps. Scroll to the normal/General profile and press Select. Scroll to Customize and press Select. In that you will have an option called as Ringing Option. Please set it to ringing and save the settings. You are done
Silent can be turned ON/OFF by turning the Ring/Silent Switch up/down.
Here's where you'll find the Ring/Silent switch:
Take a look at it and if you see a small red dot, that means you iPhone is in Silent mode. Push the switch upwards to turn the silent mode OFF and to activate your ringer.

Check if your iPhone is not in silent mode. Push the Ring/Silent switch upwards to turn off silent mode. You'll know that the silent mode is not on when you don't see the small red dot at the Ring/Silent switch which is located just above the volume buttons.
i) when phone is ringing, you have only two options either to 'answer' the phone or to 'reject' the phone, otherwise you dont have any option keeping ur phone in slient mode at that point of time(when phone is ringing).
ii) however you can keep ur in slient mode without going to your profiles by just selecting(# button) from number key pad(where u normally dial phone number......), you have to press hold # button to go into silent mode and press hold same button to come to ur general profile
iii) I'm using same CECT A8+(IPHONE), you can ask me any questions in future.............
There is a very small switch on the left side of the Iphone, just above the volume lever. if it is accidentally switched down, it will be put on silent mode. Flip it back up and it should be OK.
You will also notice a bell shaped figure appears when you flip it up. When you flip it down, a line will go through the bell letting you know you have set it to silent mode.
you can actually move the button , on the top left hand side of your iphone, over the ringer volume, you will see a red or orange dot, this means the switch has you iphone in silent mode, I was stuck on this, until I found it is a actual switch, look at it closely, you can move it. So where you see the red dot, put your finger on it and move it the opposite way, and I do not mean press the button, I mean, flip the switch on it, then your phone will not be in silent mode anymore,,, this was very annoying, I hope it helps anyone that has the same problem.
cheers!
