Hey everyone.. I am currently experiencing randomly missed alarms. Sometimes in the mornings it'll go off and sometimes it makes a small beeping noise.
I am not sure what is causing this because this is a very inconvenient problem. Anyone know what the problem might be?
Haha you have the same exact problem as I did. Usually the alarm would wake me up because I put it right next me, but on random occassion I would oversleep, and wake up wondering if my alarm went off or not.
Anyways do not use the phone's alarm!! It's unreliable and the button are too tiny for fingers anyways.

I keep getting what seem like random dings and such sometimes while I'm on a call. I thought it might be that I'm getting mail or that battery was dying. However, the battery was near full, and all my mail notifications are set to silent (not even vibrate). Anyone else notice this or am I just hearing things? (ATT Fuze)
Are you squeezing the volume up or down buttons? They make a dinging noise during a call when changing volume.
maybe someone else is trying to get to you during the call
The last few days on my daily walk as I'm listening to music all of a sudden I hear dialing beep tones. I look at the phone and it's dialing a number. The call ends immediately and it dials it again. It's like there's some looping script running. I had to restart the phone to get it to stop. I carry the phone in a case and use the standard lock screen, so there no chance it's some random button press. It's dialing a number that I did call once a month ago, but it's not in my contact list. Any idea what could cause this or how to prevent it?
Take a look at this thread, it might help.

Good find. I don't see any scratches around the hole, but certainly seems like a likely explanation. I'll try the blocker app and possibly the tape fix and see if that solves it.
Thanks very much.
Update: Installed Headset Blocker app and had no problems today. Hopefully that's it. Not ideal if you use headphone buttons, but for me it's fine.
My phone has started dropping the volume to lowest audible setting (not completely silent, 1/7) on its own lately. It's quite annoying. It doesn't even happen due to it being in my pocket and triggering the buttons accidentally. I've been chatting on gtalk for the past few hours, been keeping it out of reach of any pockets and it's happened twice.
It's an unlocked, unrooted One S from Germany and I don't have any volume control apps on it.
Any ideas what could be causing it?
EDIT:
Looks like it's an issue with gtalk, not the phone itself:

Twice now this has happened today:
Phone is on wireless charger for some time (over 30 min, less than 2 hrs)
Incoming call comes in
Phone vibrates but does not ring (I have calls set to do both), but otherwise looks/acts normal (wakes up, displays caller, etc.)
After the call is completed I put the phone back on the charger and place a test call to it. Both vibration and ringtone work as they should.
My only hypothesis thus far is that the phone doesn't ring the first time after the phone locks during charging, but this is probably not correct.
1. Has anyone else experienced this issue; and if so, how should I/we notify google if they haven't been already
2. Any ideas on how to fix this
FYI I have unlocked BL and root but otherwise stock.
This is happening also to me(and not only during the charging), i have set both of them(ring and vibrate),after a long period of inactivity it only vibrates, after this it works fine until it gets a long period of inactivity again..?
Is this a hardware issue?
There is a bunch of other posts about a problem with the speaker working intermittently. I have the same issue (unrelated to charging or not). I can check every ten minutes and half the time sound is working, the other half silence. Seems like a serious bug (or hardware fault?).

I tend to belive it's a software issue, else the speaker works just fine.
Discovered this morning that my alarm doesn't seem to work when charging. Could this be related at all?
It's not related to charging as I have got this multiple times without having the phone charging.
Also, I noticed that sometimes in some apps, sound doesn't work either.
I have the same issue, It doesn't seem to be related to charging for me as well. My phone will ring for one second and then vibrate from then on. I find that it works normal after rebooting for the first call and then after that it happens again for every call there on after. I am completely stock 5.0 btw
I did a quick search but didn't find exactly what I was looking for so thought I'd ask here.
I am currently running the stock rom with gravity box and franco kernel (along with light flow) and have noticed that my notifications are kind of wonky.
First, when you turn the volume up and down using the buttons on the side is there a lag of about half a second between when the volume slider moves and the notification sound plays? (For instance, if you go from 0 volume to full volume the slider will hit the top about half a second before the sound comes out of the speaker)?
Second, when receiving notifications there seems to be a delay in the audio sometimes. When receiving messages back to back sometimes the notification doesn't even play at all the second time around or plays and cuts off halfway through the sound. Does anyone else have an issue similar to this?
I decided to deal with it until the next new android version is dropped and then was going to see if doing a factory reset fixed the issue but thought I'd ask in here to see if anyone knew what the root cause might be.
Thanks.
The one I notice most that seems odd is hitting the power button. The screen collapses to the line, goes totally blank, then it seems like someone says "Oh!, I was supposed to play the turn off sound - I'll do that now".

I have a similar set up minus light flow. I get distorted/ delayed notifications. the phone vibrates first, but then a second or two later I get notification (sometimes, sometimes no notification). Often the notifications are distorted.

Yes! Distorted is the word I was looking for. I'm not sure why this is causing it and I wanted to see whether or not other people were having this issue as well.

I don't have a sound play when I turn off my screen so I wouldn't know whether or not I have that issue. The notification issue is quite annoying though as it causes me to miss notifications.
