[Q] How to disable the lockscreen sound?

There is an extremely annoying sound/notification that plays sometimes when I unlock the lock screen. I've looked in the settings and can not seem to find anything to turn this off. Anyone point me in the right direction here?

Thanks for the reply but I've already checked that and it's unchecked in there. I've tried checking it then unchecking but no matter what the dam sound remains.
Mine hasn't ever made a sound unlocking it

Weird.. And when you restart your phone its still there? Could be a problem with the Sense app that can be fixed by restarting it

I think you have to manually set it to do that

Yep, I've tried turning it on and restarting the phone. Then turning it back off and restarting. Also did those steps and pulled the battery. Got frustrated and just reset the phone and still no change. It's weird too because if I simply flick to unlock the screen it doesn't play the sound as often. If I take my time and slide the unlock screen and slowly release the touch then it almost always makes the sound.
Guess I can just live with it till I can through another ROM on it. Probably just an isolated issue within my Sense.

Thanks for the try
*bump
Sorry to bump this up but it's seriously annoying and I'd rather not take the phone in for exchange.
Has anyone else had this issue or anything even remotely like it? Any other suggestions, etc? I appreciate any help offerings in advance.
The only help I can offer is disabling the Lockscreen all together. At least until we get full root and you can just flash a ROM or figure out what the problem is. Screen Mode Widget (free in the market) will do that

Has anyone figured this out? It's extremely annoying. It happens every time I unlock the phone.
The lock screen sound setting someone else mentioned in this thread is an additional little beep that gets added on if you have the sound option checked. This noise is completely different and plays regardless of whether or not you have the option checked, or whether or not you have a lockscreen pattern.

over six months since your OP and you still haven't fixed this?
have you rooted? tried different ROMs? If your going to bump this topic at least update everyone on what you've tried.
Have you tried to delete the lock sound sound from system/media?

Problem with hard key's.....

my hard key lights are not working in th3bill's cm10 4.1.2...somebody Pls help me
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Have you tried flashing the ROM a second time, after a full wipe (if possible)? Sometimes these things just have the tiniest little glitches and nobody can figure out why they happen, yet a second flash miraculously fixes/solves whatever happened the first time out.
I've yet to see anyone mention any issues with the buttons - they're still considering "soft" buttons, however. As soon as I saw "hard keys" my thought was problems with the power/sleep, volume, or the camera button and not the capacitive touch ones under the display.
Just so you know...
Also, I note you say they're not lighting up - the real question then becomes are they still functional even though they're not lighting up?
Yes the soft buttons are functioning...but not lighting up....but few hours ago it was fine....but now it's not lighting up....maybe some setting issue....anybody know how to solve this in setting's mode?

If your stock root, you might be able to try hitting on your phone keypad *#0#* it will take you into your phone hidden settings theres all your sensors in there...im pretty sure that's the numerical sequence,theres a video on you tube search galaxy note 2 tricks

Or just take it back for warranty repair or replacement.

Gyroscope/rotation issues

When I got the phone ~9 months ago and rotation worked. I flashed CM13 and rotation stopped working. I figured it was the rom. It was annoying having to manually rotate photos and had to find a 3rd party program to rotate video... but I lived with it. But now I need it to actually work.
Flashed the new PE1 stock rom Friday. Rotation worked. But I had a few issues that ended up having me start over again. Then it stopped working.
Now after multiple multiple reflashes, factory wipes, complete wipes of system and all, flashing over and over, looking up and finding a ton of 'fixes' that I have tried. I still can't get it to work.
As it sits right now, it is the 100% stock flash from sammoble. Stock bootloader and all. Not rooted. Nothing fancy going on at all. And it doesn't work.
*#0*# shows the gyroscope as constantly reading all zeros.
Suggestions?
Nothing?

Yeah, that doesn't help either. Thanks though.

Have you tried recalibrating the gyroscope ?
I've done everything I could find to try. Recalibration was on that list. As was slamming the phone around.
All three sensor axis read zero all the time.
