Can my java application play sound if phone is silent.

[antas512]

i have made an application that plays some sound files.

it plys the sound file if the profile is GENERAL.
but when the profile is SILENT it does not plays the sound.

It is the "Warning tones" profile setting that governs this.

Right. And, as far as I'm aware, there is no way from a MIDlet to turn on/off the warning tones profile setting.

Hi,
When the profile setting is silent the resources will not be available for the application to have the sound.You cannot play the sound when the profile is setted as Silent.

Thanks

cant we play the sound even if it is not a warning tone but a ".amr" audio..

same we do to play our sound files other than provivded by NOKIA phones like .amr ringtones etc.

If the warning tones setting for the profile is off, the MIDlet will not be able to generate any sounds no matter how you want to do it. There is nothing you can do about it, except that Symbian/S60 devices you can, of course, switch to C++, instead of Java.
