Jason Dunn Executive Editor Join Date: Aug 2006 Posts: 23,554		Silence is Not so Golden on my SPV Riddle me this: silent mode should be completely silent, right? When I put my SPV into silent mode, I don't want it to make a SINGLE sound. Totally silent. So why is it that when I put my phone into silent mode during an operatic recital, it made a beep when I was selecting a contact while in Inbox? Or that it beeped when I stopped a recording? Come on Microsoft, I know that you understand what "no noise" means... :roll: Does anyone know of a patch/hack that will make silent mode truly silent?

Generally, as long as you choose things by their menu items and not the action button, it's keeps shctung, but it still sucks. __________________ TANKERx in pictures TANKER's Thoughts, Meditations and Brain Dumps

Copy it to your PC and make it 0 seconds long using the soundrecorder. (and keep it stored at your storage card to overwrite it again whenever you reboot your phone)
