Don't feel alone, I have the same problem sometimes. For example; yesterday I got a text message and it audibly informed me, a few text messages later I noticed that the screen would light up and tell me I got a text and even vibrate but no sound? It's a little flaky! I am going to post feedback to Apple with this problem.

I would also suggest that anyone who is having problems with their iPhone to inform Apple via their feedback form at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

i think its all the 3G phones, it has to do with the firmware, but im just worried that its hardware, but it shouldn't be.

Well I updated my 1G iPhone to 2.0 on July 11th. I haven't had any problems with alert sounds.

So the new update has been out and I assume most everyone has updated. I have updated and still have the alert sound issues. Anyone else have comments? :confused: :confused:

Funny you bring that up. I had similar issues and was given a replacement at the Genius Bar.

They went through a full restore and the problem persisted. I was given a new phone and I have yet to update it 2.0.1

Well, doing a restore solves this issue for the time being, but the problem always come back. I don't live close to an apple store so I have a feeling when I go, they will reset it and it will work for them right then.
