My wife has the MoPho with the latest updates. Bone Stock and not rooted. Every couple of days all notification alert sounds just goes silent. This includes text, emails, alarms, timers, etc... It's as if it goes into silent mode. All settings appear to be in order and the only way to fix this is to reboot.
Does anyone know what's going on? This is a real inconvenience esp. if audible alerts go dead causing her to miss her wake up alarm.

Thanks! Removing scramble solved my problem! You're a life saver!

I had this same problem up until about three weeks ago. After doing some research, I found Scramble with Friends to be the culprit. I uninstalled it and haven't had the problem for weeks. Hope this helps.
Thanks i'll give this a try. Currently on one day without the problem creeping up again.

This is an incredibly annoying issue. I've got a GSM Galaxy Nexus, and it is playing a random notification sound constantly. The strangest thing is that the sound isn't mapped to anything. Like, if I set the default notification to silent, it still plays the same random sound all the time.
I've tried using an app that tracks notifications, but it didn't find anything. I've checked through every app, and none are set to use this sound. And, I'm not using Yahoo Mail (which I've read is often the culprit in things like this).
I'd rather not have to do a hard reset, because the issue started just after a hard reset when I set up the phone for my wife. It's running stock Android 4.2.2, not rooted.
Anyone have any ideas what's going on here?

I'm having the same problem. I haven't checked yet to see if it's just the one notification sound by changing my settings, but my default notification definitely goes off randomly. There is no associated notification indicated on my phone, just the sound. I too downloaded an app that tracks notifications and it didn't find anything either. Nor am I using Yahoo! Mail.
Sometimes it's just one random notification sound. However a few times it's gone off about 10-15 times in a span of 30-seconds. It's really annoying. I too would love to avoid a hard reset, as I just got this phone brand new less than a month ago.
Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4, not rooted, Android 4.2.2
Weird issue came up this morning. Didn't have this before, didn't install anything new, didn't visit any "strange" sites.
Screen is off, but phone lets out a notification sound ( sounds like "click-clack"), didn't get a SMS or a mail, just sounds off now and again. Restarted the phone, automatic sync is off, but i cant for the life of me figure out whats going on. Changed all tones to different ones for a test, and still this same click-clack pops out, screen stays off.
Ideas how to approach this issue? What app to use to check for latest activity using sound or something?
Hey all,
I'm stock 47a, no root... Things seem to be okay with 47a, but I noticed that even if I have my phone set to vibrate or silent and someone calls, the ringer is still audible anyway. The audio levels change to the ringer at level 1. The little vibrate icon goes away as well as my audio manager pro toggle goes from "Vibrate" to "None".
This is maddening. I can't seem to figure this one out. Can anyone take a couple minutes and see if that happens with them? I'm thinking it's a bug...but maybe it's a quiet-time/DND setting somewhere (I've never messed with those).
I'm rooted and debloated on 47A, so who knows, but I use Vibrate and Silent all the time without a problem. Other than starting fresh by flashing the 10B TOT etc, I don't more what else to suggest.
So for some reason my Note 8 isn't giving any notification sounds. It doesn't vibrate, either. What does work is device sounds and incoming phone calls, during which sound/vibrate are both working as expected.
This is a new issue as of ~3 days ago. The only thing I can think of that would cause this is that I recently encrypted my SD card. Has anybody else experienced this? I'd like to keep my sd encrypted, but if it means that I can't receive notifications, I'll just have to bite the bullet.
I've checked my sound settings, notification volume is turned up. I've confirmed that all apps are enabled for notifications, and that a sound is set for each notification type. Interestingly enough, when I try changing a notification sound, my phone doesn't play the notification, it just stays silent.
Let me know what you think I should do, I appreciate everyone who took the time to read through my rant. lol.

Settings>apps>messages> scroll down to 'app settings' and make sure notification says ALLOWED. Some how my wifes Note 8 got switched off and we dealt with same issue. Hope this helps.
What he said,i have had the same issue as well,there is another setting for pushing buttons while the phone is in your pocket as well
Hi all,
Wondering if there's an app that can tell what can turn ringer on by itself...
At night if I turn my ringer off, texts wake me the next morning by vibrating.
If I turn on do not disturb texts wake me with full ringer notification sound. Changed dnd schedule to off later in day, didn't do anything. Changed dnd to priorities off and no schedule, still wakes on texts.
I have no idea if it's the texts pushing through, or something turns it back on through the night.
I've not installed anything prior to the issue. Since it started I installed a new router app and cam app, but again was happening before.
Losing sleep is getting to me so I'm ready to do a hard reset. Hoping however there's a way to track via a log what could be causing this.
I did update a large amount of apps, so I'm guessing that is the trigger. Just zero clue what is really causing. Would take ages to install a few apps at a time then wait for morning to test...
Any guesses?
Thank you,
Sleepy android user...
