Bug Description
Using the latest Marketplace release of Astrid (v2.11.1) on a HTC Hero (UK T-Mobile G2 Touch), I cannot get notifications to accept the "Silent" option for their ringtone. It allows me to actually select the option and seems as if it's worked, but as soon as the notification triggers, it sounds the default ringtone for text message notifications.
Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create new task / edit existing task to include any kind of reminder (absolute deadline, periodic, fixed, etc).
2. Menu button > "More" > Settings > Notification Ringtone > Set to Silent if not already.
3. Wait for notification deadline, sound will play so long as phone is not set to vibrate only / sound off.
A few extra details:
- Happens irrespective of whether ringtone is an pre-included or custom tone.
- When using a custom ringtone from SD card, renaming this wav to wav.bak caused Astrid to simply vibrate and not play a sound (the desired effect).
- Astrid respects "Vibration Only" / "Sound Off" when set for the entire phone.
That's all the info I can think to include; if there's any more specific information I can provide, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
