How do you unselect the SILENCE feature "Only while iPhone is locked" in Do Not Disturb?
So. I'm starting a duplicate question, with its own answer included.
When you are on the "Do Not Disturb" page, an option seems to stay selected no matter what you do.
Even if you disable "Do Not Disturb" the phone will continue to silence phone calls made in the locked mode. There is a section titled "silence" with two options. "Silence: Always" .... or "Silence While Phone is locked."
The correct way to get all of the "Silence" while locked options disabled is to scroll down to "Allow Calls from:". Click that button, and select EVERYONE. There, no more call screening while the phone is locked. PERIOD.
... and when you return to the previous page POOF that checkmark is GONE from "silence calls"!!!!!!!!!!!
I haven't confirmed if this is an issue with messages, phone, but I know it is with hangouts, gvoice, and every third party app out there. They respect the setting to silence calls while locked regardless if the phone is in "do not disturb" mode.
So back to the other post I copied and pasted the title from (you can bring it up on google or search here I'm sure). Once again Apple Forum administrators have chosen the WRONG answer, let un-knowledgable users promote it to the top answer, then locked the thread so that no one else can give the correct answer. I'm sure the correct answer is hidden somewhere in the "list all replies" section, but what good does that do when you've got what looks like a good answer 20 people saying it is ... and it's staring you right in the face without any clicks down to read the 50 other replies and entire conversation.
I'd like Forum admins to start verifying these answers, especially the simple ones like this that require just an iPhone and 30 seconds of your time. Of course the more technical hardware questions, should probably just be deleted outright because we simply don't have apple techs (other than the few and proud like myself) on these forums. Like I've seen 100s of questions about what to do when you wipe your HD and your laptop/imac screen is broken, all of them .... ALL of them are the wrong answer. Most of these computers are stuck at the flashing ? mark which doesn't allow external keyboards, screen mirroring, and so on ... so the only fix is to remove the broken monitor connector and plug a screen in directly before firmware loads.
I searched for that answer for 5 years, with ALL of the MANY threads having things ranging from absurd to just plain wrong. "I tested this on my perfectly working and undamaged MacBook, so it should work on your blank HD and cracked screen MacBook 😃" ... that was the top answer on most of these questions and just obviously wrong for a number of reasons. The broken users aren't stuck at the login page or recovery page, they are stuck way early in the firmware boot process!!!! So your perfectly working MacBook, isn't exactly a good way to verify your solution works!
Yet once again. Locked, promoted to top answer. .... and is sitting at the top of google search pages if you enter any of the related keywords!
This is a problem (BLATANTLY wrong answers) that is PLAGUING these forums. I don't know how many of the answers are partially or fully incorrect but I'd put it at well above 80%.
I have yet to come across an answer promoted to #1 that is correct, and I've seen stuff ranging from recommending high proof alcohol cleansers on plastic screens (cough staingate cough ... you say it's not your fault, but these forums say otherwise)... to just wild wacky non-sense that I couldn't even to try and replicate for you in short hand.
