Random notification sound question - HTC EVO 3D

This had been bothering me more and more lately so I thought I would ask to see if I am the only one having this problem or if there is a solution.
Ive had my EVO 3D since release and it would randomly beep the notification tone , after a few days I narrowed it down to roaming notification and I took care of that by turning off the notification.
Well ever since than , when I go to sleep I plug my phone in the charger and at some point during the night/morning it will start beeping the notification tone for no reason , it seems like it does it constant every couple minutes for a while and than stops , depending how good I am sleeping depends on if I hear it or not , I think it happens every day but not 100% sure , I know if I ignore it , eventually it stops , but there has been times I've been woken up , got annoyed and unplugged the phone/turned on screen and it stops than.
I've been through all the settings on the phone I think and hadn't seen anything , it seems like its beeping showing that the battery is charged 100% and needs to be taken off the charger maybe ????
Any input would help , my phone is 100% stock no root !
Thanks

Maybe it's hungry and want sth. to eat? =D
..mhh, sounds weird, sure it's not an app or alarm you set?
Download alogcat from market, and when it starts to ring, open alogcat and save the log and post it here.
Maybe we can see then, whats causing this.
Only other suggestion (besides feeding it - lol), I got at the moment is to do a factory reset and look if this issue still persist.

Do you have a battery calibration app installed?

No apps that I have installed would do this I don't think , I will try running the app and getting a log , I will get back to you on that, thank you

Same once
It happen today for first time just one sms notification and I get really surprised when I see is nothing on the screen. And yes I have a battery calibrator. Can it be the reason for this strange case?

My EVO has to go back

Just wanted to make everyone aware of the sleep issue with the EVO 3d , even after the ota the phone fails to sleep at all, spent an hour on the phone with HTC and they said it was a software issue and needs to be replaced, if ur your phone is saying the same up and awake time in the battery menu take it back, apparently they said the phone needs 2 mins to go into sleep, and if thise numbers havent changed after that you have faulty software

Looks good.
Glad they are recognizing it as a h/w issue and letting you get another one. Hopefully your next one is like mine.
That's interesting. I have this problem on my EVO 3D, but I am pretty sure I didn't before. I started noticing it yesterday morning after I woke up.
I think I'll try a hard reset, but if that doesn't fix it, then I'll go ask for an replacement.
Well?
Up time 163.35
Awake time 89.09
Good or bad?

Good/Bad?
This is happening to me too after I took the OTA, my phone died in about 6-7 hours yesterday, steady decline on the battery graph. I thought it seemed fine before the OTA tho. I should take it back?
I believe mine was fine too until the ota, i cant 100% confirm it though, to check this out go into menu>settings>about phone>battery make sure the up time and awake time arent the same ive tried hard reseting with no success and also have tried killing all tasks, call htc about this issue, or just try to take it back

Nevermind, I just tested it and it seems to be sleeping fine now. It was just not sleeping while on the charger, but sleeps fine off. I think my issues yesterday might be battery calibration issues, will test out today to see if that is the case.

Thats too bad about your cell.. bad hardware or bad run etc.. at least its not a wide spread or close problem. The 10 I have seen since release sleep well with great battery life.. still jelous..just waiting for root before i get mine
Even with this phone not sleeping i still get like 8 hours out of it with moderate use, so i can only imagine how good its gonna be when i get one that actually sleeps

Its only if the numbers are the same, i called in this morning and they tried to troubleshoot it but nothing worked, just told me to return it just to be safe id keep an eye on it to make sure it is sleeping

I think it's just a software bug. Should be fixed in an OTA by HTC. I have it too but my battery isn't affected so I'm not worried about it and neither should anybody else. Unless your battery is being affected.
Not to be a smart Ass, but how would I know if battery is effected?

Basically if your battery doesn't last very long. Its just like keeping your screen on all the time.
Yeah, I feel like this should be software related since I'm pretty sure it wasn't happening on my phone before.

Issues after OTA

well i know i read somewhere the phone tends to be slow to wake up, has anyone encountered other issues, mine just feels sluggish everytime i wake it up, it takes longer than it used to and once it does it takes it a second or two to become snappy, didnt happen like this before the OTA.
oh don't tell me that. my phone is flashing the update as I was reading this...
Lol I knew there was a reason not to take the ota I told myself to wait until the xda community had a look at it
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Weird. I flashed Juggs update and haven't experienced that issue.
Does changing the battery to performance making any difference?
So far, no silent calls, so that's great! The phone seems pretty solid now. But I' still probably going to trade it for a Epic 4G Touch
I do find it a little slower when unlocking but other than that the OTA update addressed every problem I had.
My phone is now extremely sluggish when waking up after the update.
Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk
I too have noticed the phone is a little slower at first but I can live with that. My biggest problem since the update is my battery life seems to have deteriorated. When I look to see battery usage now phone idle is always over 50%. I've tweaked everything I know to tweak and it won't improve. The battery life was what I loved the most about this phone and since the update it's definitely not as good as before.
Dont know if this is due to the OTA update but I have had my phone "turn off" twice. I went to use it and the phone wouldnt turn back on. I held the porwe button nothing pushed it many times... Nothing. So i thought the battery must been dead and plugged in and said it had 60% power and then i was able to power back on. And then it did it all again when i had 90% power. Weird. Either way im going to be taking it back to BB and getting a new one.

Yes i also have slow on wake and still silent call issues. I exchanged the phone 2 days ago, did the update in the store and my 3rd call had the silent bug. I hope there is a fix because i really do like this phone. Only 3 days left before my 30 days. Decisions decisions...
I'm getting silent calls still even after the update

Overheat - Battery Drain - Strange Behavior

Has anyone else had any problems similar to the below? I've had my phone for about 6 weeks and its been fine apart from the standard issues others are having, it''s not rooted and apart from maybe 10 apps installed is as it arrived.
Today I noticed it was exceptionally warm in my pocket (Top shirt pocket not trouser) to the point where I was getting worried, when I checked the screen it had used about 50% battery in less than 2 hours! So I checked what was rinsing the battery and it reported Android OS, the screen and phone idle all as top players.
I decided to reboot to see if that stopped it getting hot, still the same used another 25% battery in 30 minutes. Shut down took battery out rebooted still draining the battery and getting hot.
At this point the strange behavior started when the phone rebooted it said I had 5 missed calls and a text message. Checked missed calls non there, tried to read text message and it wasn't there but the notification was still at the top so I accessed the message from there and replied. Went back to message inbox still no message locked screen and still reports 5 missed calls that are not in the call log!!!!
Battery has now died and it's only been on a few hours!
The getting hot thing has worried me more than anything as the phone wasn't doing anything......anyone got any ideas please?
Restore factory settings or use the pc suite to repair the phone.

I also had a battery problem. It was the facebook application that caused the trouble. I deleted all the facebook's data, and today I have no more problem
Thank you for all your replies, I tried resetting the phone settings and that made no difference at all so I did a factory reset...........just spent the last few hours re-installing everything and setting everything up .
The battery performance has gone back to normal but I think the phone is definately running hotter than it was, I can actually feel it in my shirt pocket now whereas before I could just feel the weight of it.
Total newbie question I know but now the phone seems to be running normally again is there a way to back it up exactly as it is? I.e. keeping all my K9 mail settings, installed apps etc etc, it's taken hours to put it all back and I don't fancy doing it again.

i think this have been fixed by a Touchpad Calibration update by service centers since late last month.
anyone can confirm this? i am about to get a 'grey market' phone that have the exact same problem. if the calibration will have it fixed, then i'm going to get it for sure
yea u can even install astro file manager from android market which helps keeping your application ..
Not much activity here eh?
I just want to find out if the touch screen unresponsiveness, overheating, and crazy menu/back button behavior has been resolved by the touchpad calibration done by SE service centers? Is there a way we can resolve, or update the touchpad drivers ourselves?
Thanks in advance!

harmfull for phone or battery if flash is left on accidentally?

today i was sitting on the train on my way home, suddenly i noticed my flash being on. i dont know when it got turned on since i certainly didnt intend it to do so (must have ticked it by accident). my concern now is that it has been on for ages the phone is brand new so i get easily freaked out by everything estimated time that the flash could have been on is 1,5 hours or so... but i dont think it has been on for that long since i was playing with it only 10 to 15 minutes before i noticed it........ also checked my battery stats and it looked like it hadnt been on for that long , but the stock flashlight thingy in sg3 dosent show up as a process for some reason
please someone tell me that this in no way can cause permanent damage to battery or phone (in terms of overheating, i checked that right after, all is good on that end )
Stop freaking out.. If everything works then your phone if completely fine! :good:
In most cases you'll be fine, although I do remember somehow shorting one of the LED's in my HTC Evo 4G like 2 years ago. Got the phone replaced for that. I used to use the flashlight app on it a lot.
I remember in the S2 thread one user once used it as a night light for 8 hours or so and had no problems.

lol good story ^^ okay... guess ill just chill then ... guess i would have noticed it alot sooner if it had been on for a long time.... i placed it face down on the table infront of me (always do that since my protection case also covers the screen ) so it should have caught my eye alot earlier in that scenario thanks for the help really calmed me down ^^
AHA! ) apperantly the phone has a built inn timer that shuts the flashlight down after 2 min if screen is off! wich means it probably was on for like..... 10 seconds before i noticed it haha ^^

Phone keeps randomly shutting down.

It started happening a couple days ago, but I haven't installed anything new, but maybe a few apps may have autoupdated. Anyways last time it happened was about a minute ago so I figured I should probably try and figure out what's going on. I sat down and launched a game. As it was loading my phone shut off. I turned it back on and put a song on and loaded same game again. I started to play and then it shut off again. Earlier today I was listening to music and was started a different game and it shut off. I turned it back on and relaunched the same game while listening to music and it was fine for hours. Any idea what it could be? My battery is also well over 60% so it's not anything to do with low battery.
Thanks.
i recently have this problem, some say that was stock battery problem or the phone is bad reading the battery status and shutdow, i am from Nicaragua and here is hard to find a stock OEM battery so, i try do a fix permission in recovery and the problem was solved , but most users solved the problem by changing its battery
good luck
This problem has come back again and has been increasingly getting annoying. It will now shut off multiple times a day randomly. For example I'll check the time on my phone and it will shut off. I turn it back on and as soon as I unlock the screen it shuts off. After it does this a few times it will work. I would then open facebook or something and be scrolling down and it will just shut off again. I'm running default ics rooted and unlocked. Never had issues before and nothing has really been added. I've disabled a couple things such as advanced task killer and single cpu thing with the hopes that it would help, but it hasn't.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Bump. Anyone?
Welcome to the amaze. Mine started doing it again. Changing to non OEM battery helped for a while but it's back. I'll never touch a ****ing HTC phone again until the day I die and I've only ever used HTC.

Yeah I'm thinking the same. It is so annoying trying to send texts when it would shut down for no damn reason. I am hoping it's an app that is causing the phone to crash, but I haven't installed any recently. I got a new battery a couple months back but I wasn't having the problem then. This battery should be a few months old so I don't expect it to be the problem.
Love HTC. (even though I'm considering am s4 simply for a change of flavor) but HTC cannot make a good battery. They underestimate by a lot.
