Sound when disconnected, deafens me!!

[Guest DREES]

When someone on the other end of the line during a phonecall disconnects, I am deafened by a descending tone!!! No matter what I try, I cannot change the volume of this noise!! :shock:

Does anyone have any ideas which sound option I need to change to get rid of this problem?? :?:

Thanks! :?

I've got exactly the same problem ,sooo annoying :evil: , i have to hang up before the other person does :lol:

I went into settings/accessibility and turned the in-call alert volume off just to get rid of it. This probably disables other in-call alerts which might not be a bad thing ? (saves the ears from tone bashing)

There should be another way to amend these, it might be worth checking the registry ?

I still have a loud click on answer which I'll have to try and get rid of too.

I eventually killed the calldrop sound seperately through the registry.

HKEY_CURENT_USER/Control Panel/ Sounds/Calldrop

I copy/pasted a script into the calldrop values section and left the value data blank.

This calldrop sound has an association with the Category Incalll whose values can be found in SoundCategories. I wasn't sure if this new calldrop script (no p) would override the Incall script (with p), but it did.

I had previously tried InitVol set to 1 in the Incall category but the calldrop sound was still annoying. Alternatively instead of disabling it, you could change the calldrop sound to another midi file as its using windows/PegDisconnect.mid at the moment.

Thanks Martin! :lol:

I tried the in-call alert setting. That should save my eardrums from bursting. Dont think i would dare tinker with the registry just yet but your suggestion should get me by just fine.

Thanks again.

Oh Martin, one more thing.

I dont know if the in-call setting handles this as well. If you receive an SMS during a phone call the freakin' sms alert goes off and would even make your other ear go deaf. Will the in-call alert thing handle this as well??? I've yet to have someone send me an sms while am in a call so i really dont know yet. Just throwing this concern up in the air in case any of you have encountered and solved this problem.

Thanks again. :lol:

In-call alert volume' adjust all sounds which are associated with the InCall category.

I think the SMS sound has an association with the Notification category.

Go into settings, profiles and select Normal

Menu and edit to change notifications volume.

I wonder if these deaf tones are set by Orange as default as a lot of people have complained about this.
