Hi,
I have a sim free galaxy s4 on Vodafone and updated to 4.3 yesterday.
Since today I've noticed that exactly every 5 minutes without fail I get a message notification sound. I don't actually get a notification of any sort but I keep getting that message sound. If my phone is on silent then it vibrates like I have a message.
It took a while to figure out why my phone was randomly vibrating in my pocket or sounding message notification while it was placed beside me but after an hour of constant observation, I've finally managed to pin it down to the fact that it is just making the sound exactly when the clock turns to multiples of five and also it is in 5, 10, 15, 20 etc not other random times. .. .
Does anyone else have this problem? This is not only a weird problem but is getting extremely annoying.

Nobody replied. But I've solved it myself

How have you solved it?
It was in settings> accessibility>notification reminder. I had it set to 5 minutes hence it kept going of every 5 minutes. So I just turned it off.
Only thing I can't explain is why it kept going of when it's supposed to be a reminder of unread messages. But I didn't have any unread message but it still went off.

Thanks for the solution Jayman1986. I had the same problem. At first I thought it was random until I took the time to time the noitfications alerts.
I couldn't figure out why it was alerting me either. Thanks for solving the problem.

Hey guys,
For the last month I've been receiving text messages late. Ranging from 10 minutes to 3 hours. I've had the NFS rom installed on my phone for about a year and its been fine. Any ideas what would cause this or how to fix it?
Are you sure? Because i have the problem with sound notification.The green LED flashed ,but without sound.I receive message without sound.
I'm 100% because the phone makes the sound and everything. I'll get a text message from someone I'm sitting with and talking to and they'll claim they sent it hours ago. Or I get messages like "ok i'll see you there" well after meeting with them.
Hi guys! I've been using WP7 for some time now and I've noticed that it doesn't display notifications properly on the lock screen. It displays my missed calls always, but it displays my new messages & e-mails after I restart the phone. I've enabled all notifications. Set sounds on everything but still.. the phone doesn't notify me. Today I saw that I had a sms 2 days ago.. Any solution? Thanks in advance!
i had the same error
reset the phone to the factory settings, now it works

I Had the same problem. I just make a factory reset few times, but problem is still here. No one issued the same? no one has a solution? thank u very much! the rest is pretty cool and with no problem.
Will try! Thanks for the responses guys!
same here. sometimes i just dont receive sms. Its not all the time but happens frequently my smasung focus just stops receiving sms for a long time. im guessing for some reason i had no signal the carrier tried to deliver the message and couldnt then for some reason the time between the next try is long hours of waiting.
Good morning everyone !
Since about a week, every time i get out of the network (i'm living in a small village) my Nexus 4 keeps vibrating every 10-15 mins.
I already search in the settings but i didn't find anything that shut this off.
I'm using the PACman rom and if anyone got the same problem and solved it, I would like to know the solution
Thanks a lot !
I have the Samsung GalaxyS5 from Verizon. Recently I noticed I have been getting notification sound/vibrate when I don't even get a notification. I have tried what seems to be everything and just can't seem to get it to stop. I also noticed that it happens every 5 minutes - on the dot. Even when I put my phone on silent it still vibrates. I know this in right, I'm thinking I have some type of bug or virus. I have the Verizon Protect which scans for viruses and such. According to that, I have nothing wrong. I had a system update which I installed a week ago. This hasn't been happening for that long, only about 2 days. But every 5 minutes exactly I get the sound of a text, with no text.
If anyone has any idea I am up to all options. I have went through numerous threads on different websites and nothing seems to be working for me.
I just need someone with a bit more tech skills than what I have!!
Please help me out. Thanks a bunch!!!!

It's not so easy to identify an app that make a notification sound/vibration. Just some suggestions:
- If there is any notification message on the notification bar, long tap on it and select "App info" to see it belong to which app.
- Check yourself what apps you have installed recently. Try to uninstall some apps that you suspect.
- Use Permission Explorer to check for apps that have "Vibrate" permission.
So lately I have not been getting hangout notifications and it's driving me nuts. I have it paired to my android wear watch and 80% of the time it works fine but other times I get text messages and nothing, no buzz, not even a notification in my task manager letting me know I have a unread message, totally blank. It's not until I go into hangouts and I see the bold text that I know I got a message. Even when not paired to the watch,same thing, no buzz, sound, notificiaon icon, nothing until I open hangouts and see it.
Anyone else having this issue?? Driving me crazy and I already missed plans with friends because of it. Fully stock and on 6.0.1 as of a few days ago and still the problem.
Are you logged into hangouts on another device or computer? Also check to make sure you didn't snooze their notifications.

I had this issue. Try turning off wifi and see if it works. Mine did on cell data only. The messages would come into me on wifi, but I would just not get notified. I did a roll back on it and a re-install and it started working again normally. The first time I had this was on my Nexus 6. This is a LONG running hangouts problem ( various posts out there show it going back to 2012 ).
