New Atrix owner. Downloaded and installed the 'leaked' GB when it first came out, no rooting or unlocking.
Everything was fine until last night when all of a sudden my text notifications stopped. No sound and no notification light. I've checked, double checked and rebooted numerous times. Nothing helps.
I remember last night I was getting notifications from Google+ and so I turned those notifications off. Thought that might be it so I turned them back on, but still no text notifications. I had some music on my internal memory and recently purchased a 32GB SD card and put my music on that and so deleted the internal folder I had made for music. Thought maybe my ringtones were somehow in that folder and that is why no sound notifications, but all my settings check out. Am using Handcent for texts.
I'm at my wits end. Anybody have any ideas???
Thanks,
George
Just couldn't figure it out so tried uninstalling Handcent and put my settings into Go SMS Pro and notifications started working again.

Have you frozen anything with TiBu?

Hi, I'm having a problem using my SD card in the phone since updating to 2.2.1. The phone detects that there is a card inserted but I can't bring up anything off of it. If I go in the Gallery app, no pictures show up. The phone also doesn't ring anymore, because all the ringers are on my SD card. If I try to open the ringtone settings in the Phone app or the Messaging app, the phone will vibrate once... then about 3 seconds later it will vibrate 3 times in quick succession and then the app will force close.
Any ideas? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
I have a stock, unrooted Nexus 4 which I got about 4 days ago. Up till now everything was working fine and then suddenly the Google Music app stopped showing any of my music other than the one music file I downloaded from within the phone. I don't know what went wrong.
The only thing that has changed has been me inserting sim card. I don't know if that did anything though.
I can still see all the music in the same "music" folder on my computer, on the airdroid app and the astroturf app.
I noticed some .nomedia files in the folders so i deleted all of them, cleared my cache and restarted my phone and that did nothing. So what seems to be the problem?
Thank You!
Update: Sorry, i seemed to have gotten it working by deleting the application data, force stopping and restarting. Thank You Anyways!
Anyone else notice this? I'm not rooted or anything, running the latest firmware (MJE). I turn notifications off in the apps that I can, and also go into the app manager and disable notifications from there. The thing is, randomly after a reboot the check box in the app manager is checked again. Of course I don't notice this until I get a notification from the app, even though they are still turned off within the app. I've gotten into the habit of checking the app manager first thing whenever I reboot now. I should note that I have the apps on my sd card. I'm waiting on it to happen again to make sure it's only after a reboot, then I'll move it back to the phone storage and see if it continues. Figured I would see if anyone else was running into this though while I wait. I figure it's either an issue with the apps and 4.3, an issue specific to this phone, or the apps don't like being on the sd card.
Starting today I at times get some melody that sounds a bit like that Samsung bootup sound, but longer, maybe 10 seconds - and it keeps getting repeated, killing my nerves.
Went into application manager, but wasn't able to identify the culprit, and to my annoyance I wasn't even able to stop it at all (except for by reboot)! Battery stats showed a lot of drain by media server, but it wasn't in the process list. A friend suspected Timely to be the cause of it, but uninstalling that alarm and clock app didn't stop the melody. After another reboot the tablet remained silent - until a minute ago, when I plugged the power plug into its jack. [emoji35]
Anybody here having a hint for me? I'd really appreciate!
SM-T530, Original firmware, rooted
Your tab is haunted. ......lel
Just kidding not sure what could be making that. Do you have any sort system sounds enabled? Try leaving System Sounds off and media and notifications on, and so on so at least you get an idea of where its coming from
Sent from my Nokia Lumia 1520
Hm. Muting notifications makes the sound go away, muting system sounds doesn't.
Is there some tool like lsof for Android?
Silly question, of course it's available.
But - the output doesn't show ogg/wav/mp3
Any hints what to look for?
sounds like an app is trying to push through a notification that might not be coming through. I would try (i know its a pain) deleting and re installing some of the apps that you may have installed around the time the noise started occurring. I had turned off notifications for an app that still managed to do a pop up notification for a game i play (settings still showed notifications off). I had to force stop and wipe the cache and it never did it again.
Hm. Do you think wiping the whole system cache will do as well?

It's worth a shot. You could also just do factory reset
I had a similar problem and it was the Yahoo! mail app, which was configured to play a notification sound when messages were received, but not to show anything in the status bar, which was making me crazy because I did not know why the device was playing a sound without nothing visibly happening. Hope it'll help. Cheers!
Hey all,
Yesterday I reached for my phone as it was charging untouched next to me, and the screen said Android is updating, or whatever it says for example after the install of a new rom and the apps are all updated. Then once it was done all my data and settings were gone, like it factory reset randomly. I still have my pictures and downloads etc, but all sms and call logs, homescreen settings etc were gone and I was signed out of all my apps, like after a factory reset.
The past few weeks or maybe even months I was also having the issue of the phone randomly freezing up, necessitating a reboot, but then all would be well. This could happen when the phone was in my pocket, or even mid stream of a podcast for example. My phone is the Z force and I typically have a battery mod attached as well.
Anyone have any idea what could have happened? How to avoid it happening again? If there's any hope to recover my old data or settings?
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
Do you have an SDCard? Formatted as internal?

Yes, that's right. Things like my pictures and downloads are still there, but no data. My apps are there, but not my settings for example.

I had that on first reboot after the nougat update, and again after a couple of security updates. It happened to a few others and Motorola blamed the sdcard.
Try formatting after backing up.
My issue seemed to fix itself.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one, and that yours seems all good now. I think for now I'll cross my fingers and take your advice and format if it happens again. Thanks for the reply.
Happened to me today
Lost all my settings, Nova theme settings, sound settings, ringers, alerts. All my apps are still installed, but I have to log back into everything.
This sucks.
