Both correct. It depends on what you're describing.

"I didn't ... " means you're describing the fact that you, yourself, did not hear the phone ring.

"You didn't ..." means you're describing to another person the fact that the other person didn't hear it ring.

"I didn't hear the phone ring" is correct. The sentence is in the first person singular, which is why "I" is used, not "you."

In English which one is correct 'i didn't hear the phone rang' or 'i didn't hear the phone ring'?

The correct sentence is "I didn't hear the phone ring." In this context, "ring" is the correct form to use because it is referring to the action of the phone making a sound (ringing), not the phone itself as an object.


May you hear from your sister soon. Is this correct English?

From what I believe this is not correct English. 'May you hear from your sister soon' isn't correct. May is used for asking permission. ------------------------------------------- I hope to hear from my sister soon (as in :I am worried about her, she has not called me recently) Will I hear from your sister soon (as in :asked of a brother) I may hear from my sister soon (as in :I am expecting a phone call this week) Your version, apart from being incorrect English (as said above 'May you' is wrong and even if you were asking permission it would be 'May I' not 'May you'), leaves the exact meaning of what you are trying to convey ambiguous.

Is it correct more correct to say you are going to or you going to?

In the first place, "gonna" is not correct, except as a phonetic spelling of the words "going to" said rapidly and/or informally. In informal Standard English you will hear "You are gonna," but in some non-Standard dialects, where the the copula ( form of the verb to be) is not necessarily used, you may hear "You gonna."
