Debugging a Note 4 problem. - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am a noob when it comes to rooted phones and while exploring the possibilities I discovered that when trying to access the sound and notification I get an error "Unfortunately, settings has stopped." every time I try to access sound and notifications. I can control the volume of ringers and notification but that is about it. What is the best way to share my bug report here?

fresh rom 0.7+patched 2 "Forced Closed" on settings

when i got to settings > sound & display > Ringer Volume or Media Volume i receive this message "Application Settings - process com.android.settings" then it makes me force close. Can anyone help me figure why this is happening?
Just tested on mine with no FC on either. Please keep issues with the rom inside of the rom thread instead of making a whole new one. Thanks.

Force Close Error - Help Please

From Setting -> Sound and display -> System Volume/Ringer Volume I am getting the following error:
The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. dumpstate_app_2010090612216_com_android_settings.log has been saved. Use *#9900# to copy out log.
I want to change the volume of the power on/off sounds because they are stupendously loud. Can someone help me?
EDIT:
Had to flash the firmware. Its now working.
Thanks for the help.

Rooted unrooted ? Flash a new ROM or anything?
I'm rooted, haven't done any ROM flashing. The only noteworthy things I've done like that would be installing SetCPU (conservative; min 100 - max 1000), lag fix, gps fix, and I used Titanium back up to remove some bloatware.
Cheap fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=759156 this removes the sounds that are made when you turn off and turn on the phone. Doesn't fix the FC though.
You can try Odining back to stock or flashing eugene's Vibrant Hybrid of Vibrant9 and that would probably fix the FC.
The audio removal thing failed, and I can't delete the .wav.
I didn't want to flash a ROM already because it is just my 3rd day with the one and I wanted to wait until a build that used the official Froyo build was made but I guess it flashing time unless there is another solution.
Did you try a factory reset?

If you have Rom Manager installed (and you should) open it, select FIX PERMISSIONS....let it finish...and reboot...and see if the problem goes away..
The Rom manager trick didn't work.
I'll try factory reset.
EDIT:
What persistence. Still getting the error. I just I will flash.
EDIT 2:
Can someone tell me which I need to use to get my phone back in its original condition.

You should look for an email you just received that may be corrupted somehow. If you figure out which one, try to delete the email (online). I got similar messages repeatedly after I created a Google contact on line and it appeared in my phone's contacts. I had left the year off the person's birthdate and apparently there's a bug in the Vibrant such that it chokes and core dumps when it encounters an empty year field. I deleted the contact (on line, because I couldn't get to it on the phone without force closing) and the problem went away.
I don't know if you're still having this problem but I too just had a similar issue. Long story short I found out that my volume was force closing because somehow my notifications sound didn't have any sound associated to it. Once I changed that I was able to access the volume settings again.
I also get force close errors on my phone (Vibrant from bell Canada) I sent it for repairs about 6 weeks ago... They flat out replaced the phone after 4~ weeks of waiting! Now after 2~ weeks of use its getting all kinds of force close errors AGAIN!

Anyone having notification tone issues?

I haven't added or changed any apps recently. But today, my phone has started sounding the default notification tone about every 3 minutes or so, any time I have a notification icon on my phone. Sometimes even when there's no icon displayed. The only way I've been able to get it to stop is to turn off ALL notifications in ALL apps.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this before, or have any idea what I might look at?
Thanks.

You can try to silent the sound settings/sound/silent
um....why not restart .-. could just be a glitch what are your installed apps if u dont mind me asking.....
I've restarted multiple times. I'm not exactly new at this. Restarting did nothing. As I said, the only way to stop it is to turn off all notifications.
However, after trying lots of things, I used the "Reset settings" option in the Backup and Restore menu. That seems to have resolved it. I still have no idea what triggered it, as I haven't change any settings in weeks.

Yeah, that might have worked, but I didn't want to silence all notifications, just the meaningless, repeated sound that didn't appear to be tied to anything specific.

Separate notification volume from ringtone?

This is the main thing that annoys me on this phone, there is no separation of the notification volume from the ringtone. I tried multiple apps on the play store, none of which worked correctly.
1. Set all notification sounds to none
2. Lots of apps still play sounds, wtf
3. Go into each app and turn sounds and vibrate off
4. Google apps still play sounds, wtf
5. Go into each google account, per app, and turn off sounds and vibrate off
6. Sounds still play from "system" events like plugging in the phone, unplugging it, turning mute off, etc
I would like no notification sounds ever anywhere anytime.
When you get any notification from this application that annoy you,pull down notification bar,hold long press on notification and chose more options,and you have many with options to:
Turn off on sound
Turn on off vibrate
Change sounds..
I cant remember what else have, I took a screenshot shot when I get first notification..
For every app you can set how ever you want

Thanks immensely. That was really helpful. Just continuing my phone setup and tried all kinds of settings but couldn't lose the notification sound. Now it's silent. Ahhhhhhh peace at last. :good:

Constant notification tone when up/downloading

Recently started using the 8pro, first time with a OnePlus so just working my way around its peculiarities.
One thing I've noticed which is incredibly annoying is that when uploading or downloading anything at all, I get a constant repeating notification tone until it is complete.
This happens when sending vids on WhatsApp and downloading files on Google so it doesn't seem to be one particular app responsible.
Anybody else experiencing this and know how to fix it?
I don't really want to individually switch notifications off for WhatsApp everytime I want to up/download something, etc.
I also have this issue, also everytime I use Whatsapp on my computer, the phone beeps.
Everytime a notification refresh, ding.
It's very annoying and only thing I found is to mute the phone .
1. Longpress the downloading notification.
2. Click the gear in the top right.
3. Click on downloads.
4. Click advanced.
5. Click sound.
6. Change sound to "none".
