[Q] Official ICS Notification Issue

I'm not sure why but my notification sounds will stop working at a random times. I have to restart my phone to get them working again. I'll have text messages and email without a peep from my phone. Notification volume is at Max and will even play the default tone when adjusted but will not play a notification sound or vibrate for any event until I restart.
I can also now confirm that both my at&t GSIIs with ICS do this but mine seems to be more frequent.
Anyone having this issue?

have ya done a factory reset? Pulled battery for a few? checked the water things inside the phone?
all **** at&t will ask you to do.
Factory reset will most likely fix, or its just the fact that your running a stock at&t build.
I've done all of the above and no a factory reset didn't fix it.
Also my phone is not the only phone this issue is affecting. Both of my GSIIs are doing it plus the other folks if you look at the other forum posts.

I wonder the same thing. Why do people think this place is the help desk? Especially for phones running stock. Boggles the mind it does.

I have the same problem.
Upgraded my Galaxy S2 to 4.1.2 yesterday, and I cannot connect to 3G at all.
My contract is with Orange, I am wondering whether it is some sort of switch to EE issue which the update has brought about? I also think that I accidentally clicked something in a pop-up menu after the update. Like, a pop-up menu with 2 options came up on my screen, but I was just touching something anyway, and automatically selected an option (can't be sure, but think I clicked the option other than "Orange"), that could be the problem?

[Q] Lollipop Bug: 'Recent Apps' capacitive button stops working after update.

I updated my stock unrooted Alpha via OTA update to 5.0.2 and my Recent apps capacitive button will not register anything. it still lights up if you touch the back key. I sent to my provider and they reverted back to 4.4.4. I decided to try it again and am having the same issue. I contacted Samsung directly this time who told me that my provider should not be rolling back the OS. They sent me a shipping label to send the phone into them for repair but I do not have a back up phone yet. Any chance anyone has had this issue? anyway to fix it an avoid sending my phone in for another 2-3 weeks?
Its known bug on 5.0.2 but not everybody have this bug, I'm also facing this. No fix so far. Waiting for 5.1 if any.

[Q&A] Mobile Data notification switch disappeared - Lollipop 5.0.2

Hi everyone !
Sorry to tell you that I am upset to discover that my MOBILE DATA TOGGLE disappeared...
I uploaded my Galaxy Alpha to Lollipop 5.0.2 a few weeks ago and the toggle was still there. But today, for no reason, it vanished!
Do you guys encountered the same problem ? Or it was not available anymore at the very moment you updated to 5.0.2 ?
Thank you

Noticed it today in the morning - Two days ago it was there for sure. I've seen that this has been introduced by the operators somewhere in the US (http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-...5-no-mobile-data-toggle-pull-down-screen.html)
Anyone found a solution to get it back without installing any third-party software/custom roms?
Cheers,
EDIT: I have found it xD
Go to Toggle settings and choose "Reset" - the toggle appears then. Anyway, it would seem there was some covert update during the night...
Resolved

THANKS xel666 for your awesome tips, it's now BACK !
It really seems to be a phantom update... But from carrier ? I bought my Alpha is G850F unbranded in France. I am using it in Canada on Public Mobile virtual network (TELUS).
Seems like the matter of French software. I have bought mine in Poland with Polish TMO software (or was it Orange? whatever...) but flashed the FR one to get Lollipop.

Phone will not ring when locked on stock lockscreen

Hello!
I recently switched to the m4 from my trusty LG OG, an it is perfect except for one thing... it doesn't ring.
I have tried all Sony-solutions, including PC software repair, etc... but no joy. My wife also has an M4 and has the same problem.
It is worked-around by using a 3rd party lockscreen (I use Hi-Locker), which is awesome.. but not ideal due to security problems, most notably Android Pay.
My question?
Can I replace the lockscreen at the ROM level? Can I replace the basic function with maybe a lockscreen from the Z5?
Unless someone knows how to fix this
I have never compiled my own rom, but I have a reasonable level of tech-savvy. I can flash ROMS and do work in Linux.
I have rooted and unlocked my bootloader, and I am using Stock Sony ROM
I have the latest firmware
Kernel 3.10.49
build 26.1.A.2.99
I have NOT tried using an old firmware- or an alternate ROM. I probably will, but my wife doesn't love the idea for her. Thus, I would like to work out a precision fix.
My thoughts?
Idea 1. find where the stock lockscreen/security module lives.. and try and replace with something from a different phone.
Possible?
Thank you for reading.. I know some other people have these problems, as I read them in threads here.. but I didn't find much in the way of fixing.
just for reference- THIS is the problem.

My phone doesn't ring when it 's locked. If phone is unlocked ringtone rings and vibrates. When it's locked no sound or vibrate. Whatsapp messages vibrate but they have no notification sound. I have checked all the settings, volume is up. Last resort is factory reset but i'm not there yet. I don't wanna lose all my settings.
E: Okay I used Sony PC Companion and used the Fix phone/tablet -thing and it downloaded the firmware and installed it so I think it reset my phone. Still my phone doesn't ring if its locked. If I press the power button when someone is calling to me, I can see the lockscreen notification on the screen but it doesn't ring or vibrate. FFS. Any ideas guys?
E2: I guess I find a solutions. Or a temporary solution. I noticed that if I disabled the screen lock, my phone would ring and vibrate normally. So I decided to try and download "Next" lockscreen app. Guess what. When I use it, my phone works perfectly. I don't know why it stopped ringing because there wasn't any new updates from Sony but it's clearly problem in Sony's software.

I still have the "silent phone" issue with this update. I have to use third party lock screen app. If I use Sony's lock pattern or pin code and use my gf's phone to call my phone: screen doesn't wake, no ringtone can be heard and no vibration. When I press power-button I can see that someone's trying to call me. Anyone else experiencing this problem? I hope you understand what I tried to say, the issue is kinda hard to explain.

Yeah this is a huge problem and we're not the only ones suffering from it. Now I use CM Locker because Next drained my battery. I also noticed that my phone works fine if I boot on safe-mode. Still haven't figured it out which app causes the problem. Gotta wait for the 6.0 update and hope that fixes things.
Same issue with out-of-the box...
Well, have M4 'out of the box' - meaning - no custom software installed, no customized ROM, no custom lock-screen... and well - to make the ring work back I have to restart phone every few days (as soon as realize that it's not working) - oh Sony, what should I say ....
