Samsung S5 sound problems

A

AC Question

When I had the S4 mini, I could turn off the ringing sound by turning over the phone. Especially very helpful when in a meeting and forgot to turn sound off. Now I have an S5, and this facility does not seem to be available, or am I missing it?

Another problem I have is that the reminder sound on the calendar cannot be set to 'repetitive'. It is very useful to have a repeat of the reminder until stopped, as one tends to ignore or not hear the single sound and miss appointments this way. This seems to be a shortcoming on the Samsung phones. The Blackberry and Nokia phones have this facility.

I would appreciate any feedback.

I don't know about the repetitive reminder sound, though.
