IOS5 sms alert/ tone issue

Hi


My sms alert tone (IOS 5) seems to hae an issue. The tone repeat itself (as if like a broken record or stammering) multiple times when i receive any sms. Whenver i restart my phone it does sound normal for some smses, but then again it starts stammering.

I found on other forums that other users are also facing similar issue.


Any solution yet?

There is a temp fix to the solution that I have tried on my 4S:


Settings --> General --> Reset --> Reset Network Settings


This fixes the issue but in doing so loses all the saved wifi networks (extremely annoying!)


However, since getting my phone on the 14th Oct, I have had this issue crop us 3 times and the fix clears up for a couple of weeks.


Needless to say it is extremely annoying. Wonder if Apple are working on a perm solution.

See the issue never comes up in all the handsets. Never did this battery drain issue was encountered by me or my friends which apple claim they fixed in IOS 5.01. Only thing being that became a news in media and these bloddy apple people tried finding an instant solution. I am only upset since I wroter to apple and shared the feedback on this notification sound issue, but no one bothers to reply back, since we are just another poor common man for them..

Has anybody tried to write the complaint to the Apple customer care? If yes, then have they responded? I think they wouldn't. I am also getting fed up of such nonsense. Since, i've bought my phone, it has encountered several issues. I am pleased that we have this platform where we can share our troubles and many a times get a proper solution too. But this time, it seems, we are doomed. Apple is getting hopeless day by day!!
