My iphone will not play any ringtones either dowloaded or pre loaded when a call comes in. It will however play them if i click on them in settings on the phone

Make sure that its not in silent mode.

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.

No ringtone when receiving a call

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.

Take a look at this:

Cect a8+ unable to put on silent mode when phone is ringing

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.............


Thanking you

Hi, i have an iphone 8gb 2g and the silent button is broken and stuck in silent mode, the switch turns easly but it dose not do any thing. is there any way of geting the sound back up, as the mobile wont...

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.

Hope this helps

İPhone not ringing

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!
