Help Phone only rings once

[dm33]

My Incredible usually just rings once. If I pick it up, it says the person is still calling, but the phone isn't ringing. There's some setting about stop ringing when you pick it up. I do not have that set, so it should keep ringing to matter what.

It is not consistent. Sometimes it just rings once.

Any ideas?
Anyone else have this problem?

Mine does this sometimes as well. I noticed it usually occurs when the call is from the same person who last called. My problem is also not consistent.

While looking for a solution to this same issue I came across this thread...No resolution yet but consistent behavior for me. Call is still incomming, but the ringer only cycles one time. Things I have tried:

*Moved all my ringtones from SD back to system/media/audio/ringtones (previously moved to save space but was functioning well with many other ROM's)
*Tried multiple ringtones
*Fixed permissions via ROM manager
*Tried multiple kernals

Maybe related, currently on 2.2 ROM (Using NEXFRO) Moto Droid
Maybe related, not able to hear the new "Screen Lock Sounds"

Any help or new ideas are welcomed

Found the answer...Ring delay in default.prop needs to be >100

Could you explain how this is done?

Thanks

I do apologize for this most late response but I too had this problem and it was not the ringer delay (which btw is done in build.prop not default.prop and is coded into the system area of the file with string "ro.telephony.call_ring=500") it was the .ogg files meta data. Thanks to "siwahem" at XDA for this!
