New Sound ?!

[socialcarpet]

This is one of the most stupid sounds I've seen on a Nokia, why would I want to know it's stopped charging ? I'd know that would happen because I'm picking up\unplugging my phone, I don't need a reminder that I can't switch off. I do hope this gets sorted out very soon..

Email Stephen Elop immediately and demand a new phone that doesn't make the sound.

the delay in the sound from taking it off the wireless charger is the time the wireless charging technology inside the phone takes to register a disconnect from the charging plate. so the sound doesnt go off til seconds after you've picked it up from the wireless plate. this makes sense and is intended.

OMG, I noticed the same thing the past two days, and I gotta say I really don't like the new sound ... it sounds more like an error-type tone. Unplugging is NOT an error, lol.

But seriously, I'm glad to know that it wasn't just me going nuts.

BTW, going to Settings and unchecking the "Other Notifications" would shut it up (as well as some of the other random sounds).

by the way can anybody tell how should i know that the phone is full ?

 

[theprawn]

When the battery indicator, top right, is full. To see the absolute % level, go to settings -> battery saver. There's no full audio queue.

Actually it's one of the two sounds the phone makes even when on silent. Taking a screenshot (power plus home) makes a loud 'shutter' sound. . So far one in three don't mind these sounds. I'm not one of those.

You can get rid of the screenshot shutter sound (and all shutter sounds) by going to system-ringtones and sound-uncheck camera shutter at the bottom of the screen

I noticed it as well. It took a few seconds to question myself if I've been hearing it the whole time and just never noticed or if it was new, before coming to the assumption that something must have happened causing it to trigger cause there was no way I never noticed that before. I just didn't know *what* caused the change until reading this.

I think it is cool. I like something that makes my devices original compared to others. I also changed the Voice on the phone to English (UK) because having a female british voice vs a normal US female voice when using voice command and the sort is just something cool compared to sounding like everyone else. Kind of gives it a female jarvis kind of feel.

Also, the lag.....ya it doesn't bother me a bit either.

OMG... ha! I guess I derped out on this until reading your post, but I just assumed that I could only make the Nokia Drive voice british... I guess I just though there was no way to change the phone voice - until your post! New language installing right now... thank you! I have a whole new way to fall in love with my phone now

I noticed it to, made the correlation it was after the last plus update

 

[lordofthereef]

It is an odd feature - im not sure what the benefit is other then making sure the phone stays connected I guess?

My guess is that this was implemented specifically for the wireless charger. It gives you notification when it's charging, but if it gets bumped slightly, or loses connection somehow, you are none the wiser until the phone dies on you later in the day.

Why are people so angry about this? I'm happy that we have a company that are releasing updates on an almost daily basis for an awesome phone

How did you manage this ? I set my phone to US by mistake and regretted it as it doesn't do kisses

 

[david90531]

it scared me the first time, I thought my phone had an issue xD

Exactly. People complain there's no updates, and then they complain there's too many updates.
Just plain strange.

So....has anyone figured out how to disable this? I don't care that they added this feature; I just want to know how to get rid of it.

Speaking of unknown sounds, I had my 920 connected to a bluetooth adapter plugged into my aux jack in my car, and as I'm driving down the road, I kept hearing a "beep." Could not figure out what it was. A few days later, I heard it again. By the third time, I associated it with Nokia Drive, so I checked the settings and found the "Speed Limit: Alert On" setting. Problem fixed.
