I have installed the Car Locator app on my Desire (stock ROM). It is a great app and is very usefull, however it has a really annoying problem I'm hoping someone can help me with.
This app has a feature to set an alarm after you have been away from your car for a certain time, should you be parked at a meter or something. Nice idea but....
The alarm works just fine, but now it has set my default ringtone to the alarm sound! I change it back, but then the next time someone rings me, its this alarm sound again. I have since uninstalled it, but the problem persists!
I believe there is a newer version (2.92) but I'm wary to update to it.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? Will updating fix it?
New to Android and XDA. Please excuse my ignorance!
I seem to be having an issue with the notifications and ringtones on my new Moto X Pure. Ringtones are 'ascending' and start out very quiet. and some notifications seem to be the same way but the tones are so short that all that ends up happening is that you don't hear them at all. It also doesn't seem to affect every app - I don't hear anything when I get a Facebook message, but emails and texts seem fine. Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing?
Most apps have their own sound settings. Check the apps that are giving you trouble and see if there is a setting for sending ringtones.

I checked everywhere to see if you can turn this off and failed. It's something that's very annoying to me
This is a serious issue ....I am considering returning the phone because I cannot even hear my notifications ...spoke to motorola and of course they said they are not aware of any issue
.....if they would acknowledge the problem and address it in a software update I wouldn't care but since they don't even acknowledge the issue ....

That app seems to work for everything but Facebook which is fine for me. Give it a try. Hopefully once some custom roms start dropping this issue is fixed
Someone else and I are having similar issues with low volume: http://www.reddit.com/r/motox/comments/3maaw1/_/

I have had ring tone volume going down to zero and not being able to adjust it 3 times now. I think I just figured out that this happens when moto assist puts it into "driving" mode and I'm wearing my bluetooth headset. Only way to fix it is to reboot the phone. So annoying!

I don't mind the ringtone volume as much as the low notification volume. It sucks. I constantly miss messages and email. The buzz sound you get from vibrate is louder than the darn notification.

This seems to be a good workaround. To get it to work check "New normalization method." I was also getting an annoying notification in the status bar that the app was waiting for a call. I was able to get rid of this by going into settings-apps-disable increasing ring and then deselecting "show notification." App still works.
Now onto trying to reduce the vibration intensity or pattern of this phone. If anyone knows how to do that, please advise. Also wish this phone had separate volume control for the ringtones and notifications.

I don't know how well this will be in the long run. But I disabled moto voice and restarted. The ascending issue is gone all around. . I will keep you posted and see if this isn't just a fluke

Im not sure if this is related but Ive noticed the ringtones are coming out on both top and bottom speakers but notification tones are onlu coming out from the bottom speaker are you having the same issue?

The workaround I'm using is to add ~2 seconds silence to the initial portion of the MP3 file for my notification MP3s. This means that during this initial 2 seconds of an MP3, while the XT1575 volume ramps up, there is nothing playing, then the actual sound plays at full volume. Works like a charm.
I use my own MP3s for notifications and ringtones. Used an old version of Goldwave to do this (and other useful things) to the MP3s, then loaded them on to phone.
If you're rooted this is the fix I through together thanks to the help of the moto x play thread. Check it out and make sure to thank the guy who created the original file

I had the same issue with every nexus 6 I had (3 of them, all returned). Motorola has something very wrong going on with the speaker hardware/config file.
For anyone who happened to install a custom ROM or the OTA Marshmallow update, do you still have this ascending ringtone issue? I cannot hear my notification sounds, but after installing the "Disable Increasing Ringtone" app, it seems to have helped for most notifications except for FB Chat Heads.
If your rooted, AICP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=63842724 has the setting built in.

Found a fix for this if you are rooted. Worked great for me to fix this bug http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/general/mod-disable-ascending-ringtone-t3218683
Still not fixed? Motorola you useless twats.
Not even fixed after the 6.0.1 update (Moto X Style, reteu version). Why is it so hard to give us a toggle for this... As much as I like this phone, there are a few quirks that will make me never buy anything non-Nexus ever again, starting this fall.
Ok, so I've been running the stock Lollipop (rooted) on my Sprint S5 for a little over a year. Recently unrooted, then did the OTA update to Marshmallow which for the most part went well.
However, since updating to Marshmallow, I'm getting a random notification sound that is happening. There is no visible activity, action or notification when the notification sound happens. It happens if the phone is on standby, or even if I'm actively using it. The sound is kind of a "drop" noise. Sounds somewhat like the Facebook or Hangouts message notification sound, but a deeper tone. I've disabled tons of settings, looked through all the menus and options, and nothing so far has identified what it is that is causing it. Thinking maybe if I could find the sound file for the notification it would help figure out what was causing it I've even searched the entire storage of the phone for all audio files and can't even find that specific notification sound, so it must be something embedded in the OS or an app/service.
Any thoughts or similar experiences?
Thanks in advance for any help or insight.
I can't be the only one experiencing this. Anyone? :/

It sounds strange, but did you set a ringtone and check if it's working in ringtone settings and also the volume of ringtone isn't too low?

This issue doesn't happen always. Sometimes it will ring. Sometimes it will not. without changing any settings.
Sometimes changing the Alert Slider to Silent position and bringing it back to Ring Mode helps.

? Everytime or not?
Please give also information about your rom, gapps version, additional mods and apps. Bootloader unlocked and magisk installed?
Have you tried to clean install the rom?

Phone is not rooted. Bootloader is not unlocked.
Android version: 8.0.0

Any suggestions? i have seen many OP5 users facing the same problem and complaining in oneplus forums. Looks like they are deleting many of the threads related to this issue.
Anyone else faced the similar issue here ?
Me too, it only gets solved with a restart. Totally stock OB5.
Its known in OP forums, I hope it gets solved in next releases.
I have that issue too, but probably happens with Whatsapp messages. And yes, the only fix seems to be a restart. I've noticed this starts happening after a couple days of no restart. Cheers!
Its a known bug, you can solve *temporarily* by setting a preinstalled ringtone. This bug happens only when you set a custom ringtone.

This was a known bug for oneplus 5. They released a new update to fix this.
Not sure whether it is same for oneplus 6
I recently updated to 5.1.5 and the no ring problem started for me (
Does anybody face this bug" notification sound automatically go into the vibration mode,restart to get everything back to normal"??i tried cear partition cache but didn't help this method..help plz
I also have the same issue. In my case, notification sound or ring comes from earpiece speaker instead of main speaker so it's too low to be heard. Not sure about the root cause. Reboot definitely helps but quick way to fix it is to call any number(like 111) and hang up after putting it on speaker. Is anyone else facing the same issue?
I can confirm that notification/call ringtone goes silent automatically in v323 also. DND is not activated and no power saving module/mod is enabled. This is an annoying bug and frequently causes me to miss important calls and notifications
Same here.
I solved my problem this way..i dont know if it will work for you friends..
Step 1 download the zedge app from playstore
Step 2 download the htc reactive notification tone
Step 3 set it via phone setting but select zedge app
I dont have the call ringtone problem i set "RING 1"
check it guys ..and tell me if it is working or not?
Thanks. sorry for bad english!

Didn't work for me. Do you guys have any smartwatch connected via Bluetooth? I do and may be it is the root cause of this issue?
I think this issue definitely has something to do with Samsung gear S3. Whenever I turn off and back on the Bluetooth, issue appears to be gone for few hours.
Guys i think the new 326 update fixed this issue..whats say?
I still have this issue but it's not so frequent now. It comes back in 2-3 days after reboot.
Issue is there. Randomly no notification. 326

I experience it too. But in my case, I don't have to restart the phone, only turn it back to ring mode works to fix it although only temporarily.
It happens randomly, if I'm not using my phone for about 15 minutes, not always happen but randomly, occasionally happen.
I don't have any smartwatch apps or alike installed, but I'll check for other apps that might causing it.
I wish whether it's a bug from Asus or mistake from my side, it can be fixed somehow, because it's annoying.
Still looking for the solution.
=========
UPDATE: SOLVED (A long ago actually, sorry I just write this now)
An app caused it. It has to do with timer and notification sound triggering at some preset times a day.
After I uninstall the app, all is OK.
Hey guys, I am too facing the issue. But root cause seems to be this.. When I open any app that gives some audio output, n I immediately try to reduce the volume. Somehow the ringer volume also goes down along with media. N after this whenever I press the volume rocker, it doesn't work on ringer volume but on media volume. Once I restart it works fine but same thing repeats if I do what I mentioned.
Hi guys anyone experience after the update or Android become Android 8.0 my phone do not have signal anymore
