My G2X randomly makes a shutter sound while in standby. No apps are running. Last night it did it while the phone was supposedly on silent, so I turned it off, but during the week I rely on my phone as an alarm, so this won't work. Any ideas? I'm running stock rooted Gingerbread.
You don't have an app for screenshots do you? I know when I had a screenshot app it would make that sound when it completed it.

Hi guys,
I'm using Valhalla 1.1 ROM (2.3.4) with adrenaline shot X.
My ringtone is a 22 seconds mono MP3 located on my SD card.
When i get an incoming call - it starts quietly for 1.5-2 seconds and then
turns loud. I defined it to be the loudest.
I also noticed i get ringed after caller hears 3 calling tones (but maybe that's just fake tones, curtesy of my network supplier).
I searched the forums and couldn't find anything.
I'll appreciate your help.
Itzik.
Pretty sure that happens to a lot of us

That's normal on Gingerbread I believe. Never happened on Froyo, but since upgrading to GB, happens to me too.
I get the same... running GB Audiophile. Same ringtone I used on Froyo and it did not do it.
I actually kinda like it - when the phone is on my desk, I get a second to act before it jumps off the desk screaming at me.
Yes, I agree, it's nice to have a little delay so you don't bother everyone.

I learned to like it myself for the same reasons stated above.
Whenever I'm in a phone call my phone does a short vibration two times then the screen lights up and does it again happens all the time when I'm on my phone and always does a two vibration tone. I check setting and there was nothing in it :/ I'm running absolution 3.7 and Idk its just annoying anyway I can. Get it to stop?

That may be a notification. I think by design, while your on a call, notifications go to vibrate mode to avoid blowing your ear out with the tone I have had this happen to me in the past and wondered what it was, then figured it out when I realized I had new email after the call. It seems strange though, because I always thought data was off during a call.
No its both a notification and just a dual vibration :/ it just is annoying hearing it go off even on silent it does it -.-

Just noticed in another thread that CM7 has a setting for vibrate on outgoing calls. Is it possible that could be in your ROM somewhere? Just a guess.
I have everything unchecked and its vibration seems to happen whenever the screen turns back on during a phone call like ill lock the phone but randomly the screen "rotates" and comes back on and the it vibrates :/... I'm thinking of just reflashing the rom because I don't even have a ringtone for when people call :/ blah

heres a weird one that may only bug me.
I stream the Sirius xm radio app all day through my phone while im at work.
When I get a phone call the app pauses for the phone to ring and phone call to happen.
when i finish the call , the Sirius app is supposed to restart where it left off.
It works about 20 percent of the time with my VERIZON GS3.
I often have to completely exit the app and restart it to get the app to work at all.
I take 10-15 calls a day so it becomes frustrating and distracting to have to mess with my phone after every call.
the app works perfectly on every phone ive had.
razrmaxx gnex charge no problems.
same problem with stock or with any of the stock ROMS.
with or without imo kernel.
It doesnt happen all the time but MOST of the time.
Anyone have any ideas how i would begin to fix this?
thanks!
bump
Anyone?
I don't think it's the app all music players do this on gs3 it's a known issue. For me Pandora doesn't start back playing music. Try unplugging head phones then plug back in and hit play in the app again.

So is it on anyone's list to fix? Thanks for the info. I'll try the headphones thing. Lame. I hope that it gets fixed

Anyone else having a problem with their sounds after "un-muting" the phone? Example being I mute the phone at night or for a meeting, then when I turn the volume back up I notice my sounds for texts, fb, emails, etc do not work anymore, and I have to go back and manually reset them. The phone ringer does still work though. Just curious if it's something I am doing wrong or have overlooked. Not rooted or unlocked. Yet.
My phone does the same thing with the sounds. Except ive never muted my phone and im unlocked and rooted

The only thing I've noticed about sound is that ringtones and notifications go thru the head phones or bluetooth device when one is connected, instead of the back speaker.
Further Observations
Last night I tried turning the volume down to the lowest setting, but that was no good either. Today I have received a handfull of emails with no sound at all after I turned the volume back up. I can't verify texts yet as I haven't received any to this point. If it makes a difference or not these are all custom alerts or tones, not "factory" sounds.
Mine r factory tones i still hav the problem. I believe its a software issue the brand new phones have

Moto or ICS?
Hypothesis
After several weeks, I think I may have figured it out somewhat, at least for me. It seems if I have the phone plugged into my computer usb either in mass storage or media mode, and get an alert of some kind (sms, email, etc) it will cause the sounds issue. If I just use the wall charger, I don't seem to get the sounds issue.
So I bought the Ultra yesterday. The speaker sounded great at first. Tonight I started a song on Google Music and it was loud at first. Then it seemed to autocorrect the volume. The volume is now the same between half and full. I cannot get it to turn up any louder and it is pretty quiet.... About half of what my S3 could put out.... This is between both the Pandora and Google Music apps. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a setting I am not seeing to turn this "feature" off?

try a different app then you will know if its the phone or the app.
for what it's worth I've had google play music do weird things with the volume on some songs. (not a droid phone)
So I called VZW tech support last night and they told me to take the phone back and get a new one. And it also started doing it on speaker phone too.

Isn't the phone supposed to do that? I believe I read somewhere the phone adapts to how you listen to songs... Will look for the article.

I did a factory reset and that seemed to fix it for a while. Music played normally for about 6 hours then it randomly started cutting the volume level again. It gets so quite it sounds like the volume is only at 10-15%. I went to Verizon and couldn't get it to reproduce the effect in front of the agent. They said to come back if it keeps happening.

I honestly believe that the phone is supposed to do that. It supposed to adapt to your listening preferences. I can't find where I read it but I will.. Just return it before your 14 days are up and see if the new one does the same. They shouldn't charge you.

Turn off the equalizer and surround under Sound > Audio Effects
Effects Profile: custom
Surround: off
Equalizer: off
Soooo.... sometimes it has no volume at all. I tried suggestion from the post above and it didn't seem to help. Too bad I really like the 5" screen. I think I going to return it and buy the Moto X instead though.

My volume does weird things using Google Play music as well. I was walking yesterday and had it on full volume. Never had it that way on any other device.
Past Moto phones have had a "High volume can harm your ears" warning that turns down your music unless you shut it off. Maybe that remnant of Blur stuck around and needs to be disabled somehow? Just a thought.

i do get a message that says that when i'm listening to bluetooth audio and go to turn the volume up on the phone. but, knock on wood, it still lets me turn the volume up.
edit: actually it looks like this: http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-4/229041-how-do-i-disable-unsafe-volume-warning.html - so if it happens on a NEXUS, then it's not motorola, it's Google (oh wait i forgot, they are motorola...and all of freaking android)
