On my W810, while using a wired stereo headset (the included one or the HPM-82), I don't hear my custom ringtones over the headset when a call comes in. The music pauses, and the phone speaker plays the ringtone instead The call itself still works through the headset, though.

Is this common on phones? If so, here's something else I want to fix. I can't hear the phone ring while on the headset, especially when using those "earplug" headphones.

when you plug in your headphones the profile will automatically change to port handfree, then you press and hold # key until it changes to silent mode. the profile will be updated. so, when a call comes in, the ringtone will sound throu the headphones

Yes, the profile automatically changes to "Port H-free," but what's this about later manually engaging Silent Mode

when the headsest is plugged in, u press # key till it turns into silent. now, everytime you plug in your headset it will automatically turn silent.

This is how I got the ringtone to ring through my headphones.

Menu>Settings>General>Profiles>Select Profile>Handsfree>More>View and Edit>Accessories>Select>New Accessory>Add>Portable Handsfree>Select>Done

Also make sure that you have the silent mode selected on the Handfree profile. Keep your phone set to normal profile or whatever you choose but now when you plug in your headphones the profile will automatically switch to handsfree and when a call comes through the music will pause and you will hear your phone ring through your headphones. Works perfect on my W810. And I also had to have someone on this forum explain to me how to do it when I first got my handset. Cheers!

"Silent Mode" was the trick.

Funny to need that to get the ringontes to play through the headset...

Oh, well. Thanks!
