    Are you sure the silent/ring switch isnt on silent? The silent position also works as vibrate. Slide that switch up, if that is the case.

    I have the same issue from time to time, if I have either used the App store or loaded the GPS in Google Maps or Loopt, I either have to reboot or force it to make a sound. I have noticed since I changed the default text tone, I haven't had an issue. I can't figure it out either.... they are bugs that will be fixed with patience
