Unknown Vibration - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

I keep my phone on vibrate most of the time. It vibrates periodically but I have no idea what is causing it. Nothing shows in the notifications. Any idea how to figure out what's causing the vibration?

I had that issue with my first 6T. Have not had that issue with my new 6T.
Read this and follow the link provided in Reddit. They talk about clearing cache in download manager. I did that with my last 7t and it worked.

Music from unknown origin - not killable :(

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!

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

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!

[Q] Rooted S5 on 5.0.1 with Lightflow

Over the weekend Lightflow was being wonky. Showing I had notifications when I had none.
So I uninstalled it, and hit restart to let the phone refresh..
Upon doing so, it bootlooped.... I think. After 3-4 minutes it came up with a Force Close window and said "System is Not Responding would you like to close? [Wait][OK]"
Has anyone else seen this or experienced it first hand?
As a fix, I removed the battery and let it set for a minute or so. Re-assembled, powered on, and it took a minute or so to boot fully after the removal of Lightflow and the bootloop, I think...
As the system hadn't loaded, I was unable to get SS's.. But does anyone have any insight on this?
Question: Do you have a Developer edition ? How are you on 5.0.1?
But the system not responding issue has also happened to me. Fixed it with a battery pull.
Not sure what causes the problem though. Maybe check logs?

Phone Freezes and Screen Becomes Unresponsive

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 on AT&T with the September security update and for the past month I have been experiencing a repeating issue where the screen will occasionally not turn on after locking it, even with the power button and home button being pressed. Sometimes by spamming those buttons the device will buzz and turn on again, but recently it has not even responded to this and will completely restart after about a minute. This seems to happen frequently with Snapchat opened but sometimes it does this behavior with other apps open. In the past, messages have also sometimes shown up either saying "System has stopped responded. Would you like to force quit?" or another app that is currently open. If anyone has been experiencing the same problem and has advice it would be appreciated.

I had this issue as well. The phone had a lot of force quits. It would lock up, vibrate then reboot. I would recommend getting it exchanged.

I would do that but I can't exchange the phone at this point, I've had it for a while now.

Can you call in for a warranty exchange?

Notification LED Issues

Has anyone had issues with the notification LED blinking when you don't have any notifications? This is really frustrating and I can't figure out how to fix it. I've restarted, cleared the cache for the phone and cleared the cache for messages.
Is it supposed to blink with the phone turned on? It only blinks while charging with the phone off

It is not a notification LED, it is a special purpose charge indicator.... It should only blink/light when the battery is too low to turn on and it is charging... If it is doing it at other times the problem is a hardware fault (usually moisture related).

I don't think it's a hardware fault. It only happens when then screen is off.

Boot in Safe Mode or factory default... if it still occurs, it's a hardware fault, if it goes away it's an app conflict.
We have seen this before though, it is almost always hardware when the light comes on when it shouldn't because the stock ROM has no provisions for any control of the light.

Definitely an issue with my ROM or an app. I ran a backup then Factory Reset which fixed the issue. I'll ask this question in the rom thread.

Sounds good... Good luck!
I just assumed you were stock since you didn't state differently in your OP.

Random reboots

Anyone here had experienced random reboots? It constantly happening to me different days, with no reason. I do not know what could be wrong.

Using this device for 3 weeks and I've been experiencing this since last week. It hasn't happened during the day yet but at night it does. When I wake up my phone is either at the 'unlock sim card' screen when it's connected to my charger or just off and I have to boot it up. The latter is very annoying as my alarm doesnt work then.
I fear it's a hardware (battery or mobo) issue but hope it's a software one as it's happening only during the night so far. I'm in the process of unlocking my bootloader as of an hour ago and hope a clean install / flashing an older version of miui or flashing miui.eu may fix this.
I have low hopes for Banggood customer service where I ordered the phone...
Edit: please do chime in if others have experienced this or have advice on troubleshooting like logging the crashes or smth, I'm a big noob in this regard.
It happens to me randomly. No specific time of the day, but not always, its been getting frequent though. Before its like every 2 to 3 weeks, now i'am having it every week. There are also times that the phone becomes hot, not very but noticeably hot, then it freezes so I have to force reboot it. If someone out there knows whats going on please enlighten us.

Okay it seems I was pretty dumb and had the auto-schedule turned on under Security -> battery -> settings -> schedule on/off. Had it set at turn on at 00:00 and off at 07:15. However, I thought this settings was to turn on and off the battery saver mode lol. I turned the whole thing off and hope I won't find my phone rebooting at night now.
Did you find a solution? It has been happening to me too. When I am playing a game, or doing skype calls, or just randomly, It happened a few times also when I tried to use google photos, it is more and more often.

Yeah, see my comment above. For me I actually accidentally set it up to reboot. Random reboots often point to a faulty battery, possibly loose connectors.
