You'll still get vibrates and sounds if the phone is not locked, even if DND is active. This was true before iOS7. But, they added an option to not disturb you even if you're using the phone. Make this change:


Settings > Do Not Disturb > SILENCE: Always


The default is Only while iPhone is locked


This is great if you're using the phone in a quiet place and do not want alerts coming thru.

Double check all of the settings and that they match what you are trying to acheive (Allow Calls From = Everyone vs. No One vs. Favorites, for example). If that doesn't correct the issue, try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.


You might also post back with your exact DND settings and a detailed description of when you get calls that you think you shouldn't.
