so, I recently got myself an galaxy ace, and while I am very happy with it, I have to say I am a little disappointed with the sound customization options. On my old phone I was able to have the phone on silent mode and only vibrate for incoming calls. Is there any way to make the ace do this as well?
 
To do that go to 'Setting'->'Sound'->'Vibrate' here you can select 'Vibrate only when silent'.
A lot of Ace owners find the absence of ‘Profiles’ as they knew it in their older phones a bit perplexing/irritating, the easiest solution is to go in for a App that does the job but keep in mind to check ‘Permissions’) as I have found that many apps want rights to go where they have no business (IMO), of course that can be set at the top the page by selecting ‘Safe Search Strict’ (my choice). Also go in for an app which can be moved to the SD card or else it will just hog (already limited) space in your phone memory. For someone who just wants to put his/her phone on ‘Silent mode’ you can do it in the following way

  1. Thru the menu ‘Menu’->’Settings’->’Sound’-> ‘Silent mode’.
  2. Drag down your notification bar & touch the ‘Sound’ icon second from right which will go grey & become ‘Vibration’.
  3. Go to the ‘Tel’ icon (Green icon, first from left) on your home screen & then on the top there is a ‘Keypad’ tab which will bring on the number screen. Keep your finger on the ‘#’ button & your phone will vibrate & go into ‘Silent’ mode’.
    The second & third option work for me as my settings is that the phone will vibrate on if silent mode is selected. ‘Menu’->’Settings’->’Sound’-> ‘Silent mode’
