I have BA with Xplode's WM6 ROM installed and i have installed HTC Home plugin some weeks ago i found something strange: whenever i sync (i use calendar sync) it changes from vibrate (my default "ring") to sound on.

Also when a calendar reminder appears, it does not vibrate as i have select it but rather plays a sound.

I've never noticed this problem before installing HTC Home.

I've searched and found this threads with similar problems, sometimes the oposite, changing from ring to vibrate, whenever changing something on calendar, but with other phones:

It seems that there is some problem with HTC Home + Calendar/Reminder and vibrate / ring options.

Is anyone experiencing the same ? Any solutions ?

I'm experiencing the exact same problem, but I cannot find a solution. I posted it in the ROMeOS forum for the Kaiser and no one had any ideas there. I didn't have this problem with stock. It is 100% reproducible on my device. I leave mine on vibrate 24 hours a day all of the time, however I started noticing (after flashing) that many times my phone would adjust to ring from vibrate. I realized if I ever changed appointment settings (even if I open an appointment, change the time, change it back, and hit ok), it will automatically change from vib to ring. My phone still vibrates whenever there are events coming up, but so far my phone hasn't gone off in any meetings yet :-/

When googling I found this similar post at ppcgeeks: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=190440

Still not much info there, someone mentions some fixes but doesn't say anything more about them.

I tried turning the "Reminder" under Sounds & Notifications settings to not include a "ring" option (unchecked it) and now I can edit calendar events without it changing to ring.

Eh I changed the time of a calendar entry today and after hitting ok, it changed the ringer back on :-/ Sorry I must have had a tard moment earlier.

It happens to me sometimes that creating a new appointment won't change vibrate/ring settings, but shifting an appointment will.

But that doesn't always happens, oddly.

What happens all the time is that when synchronizing with Outlook calendar, it will always switch to ring.

Syncing w/ my outlook calendar does this too. This is getting annoying enough to almost want to go back to a rom from AT&T :-/ I have been searching and searching and I haven't found a solution yet.

Looks like HTC Home might be the culprit. There is supposedly a fix:
