Yeah, thats way I think it should work too - however you can get a
usable situation by changing the settings for default to your common
situation (which then become sticky and last through a reboot/most
upgrades).  That way if want silent for default - change all the default
settings to silent and it will boot up as that.  Counter-intuitive ...

"Default" is what you get after flashing. default is what you
get when you don't customize.  And that is fine.

The phone is not supposed to "revert back to default" just because
the user boots it. If you make _changes_, they should stick!

yes. that is why i would like to know if there is a conf file
someplace that overrides the shr-settings profiles. any changes i make
to the profiles, if restarting the phone those changes do not
re-enable. they re-set to noise making profiles.

sorry for the default confusion. thats what the phone states in the
profile drop down when turning back on. even though prior to shutdown
it was set to vibrate.

Actually, you said that it "defaults back to default", hence my
response (i.e.: what else would it default to? Wouldn't defaulting to
something else make that thing... `default'?).

Have you tried just setting the ring volume in `Default' to zero?

I may have misunderstood, but I took the `Default' profile to be
similar to the `turn-on volume' setting on my car's audio-system.

Apologies if I was curt, before.
