Having a problem with my Galaxy Fit (Gingerbread 2.3.6 FITDROID 3.2.XXKPP by vishwa). The whole thing works just fine, except I don't get any notification sound for incoming SMSs. It used to vibrate, but now it doesn't even do that. I've tried setting the sounds through the Android system, through Zedge ringtones, and even deleting Zedge altogether, as I thought that this might have been causing a conflict, but to no avail. Now completely out of ideas. If this problem can't be solved, I'm gonna have to start looking for a new ROM to install, as my wife is slowly killing me for missing her texts. Can anyone help out with this?

help from french guy
Hi. 1st of all,sorry for my english.
So did you try this?
Go to "Message" then "settings" then go down and "select sound"
And tell me if something happens
Serious "D'oh" moment going on here. No idea how this setting managed to escape me, but thanks. God, I feel dumb.

The name of the thread says it all, i'm not getting any more notification for the sms i get.
No sound, no icon in the notification bar, nothing...
I'm just able to see that i have a new message because i set Handcent to display the number of unread sms on the Launcher Pro dock.
Yes, i have checked all the settings, yes, i have tried other application, yes i have tried to change my rom (tried the stock 2.3.4 , reseted it, didn't work, so i installed the CM 7.1 RC...).
It's kind of annoying, i have to wake up the phone now to check the new sms, it's killing the fun!
Anyone has had the same problem? Anyone knows what could have caused it? I didn't change anything at all, it started with no reason.
FYI i'm french, living in france, Nexus S i9023, and getting pissed off because of that thing XD
Thanks for you help guys!
Come on mates, don't tell me i'm the only one having this issue???
Even on the french forums nobody's ever had it, i can't have that much bad luck! XD
ok, one more try.
My provider kept the phone for one month trying to fix the problem, which they did by "updating the software"... bulls**t as it was already the latest version of anything available on my phone. The problem is still here, i can't get any notification for my SMS!!
The thing is, while they had my phone repaired, i used my old HTC Hero... And i got the same trouble! It seems the problem is my google account! BUT i tried with a new adress i created just to check it out... And i had the same problem...
To be honest, i'm fed up having to wake up the phone to check the sms!
I can't find a reason why my notifications are off now!
I tried a non-android phone (samsung player one) and i got all the notifications!
It's driving me crazy, does anyone have a clue???
i had the same issue ever since I bought my Nexus S but the setting for vibrating when you receive a text message is in the Messaging app after you press the menu key and go into settings
Messaging App --> Menu Key --> Settings --> Notification Settings
Hope this helps!!
Helped on JB4.1.2 by turning SMS notification off (yes, it was on by default, but no Notification) and then on again after exiting the sms app.
I had the same problem...
fullwiped, reflashed gapps, worked again.
If you're not willing to wipe, I remember that Go SMS was the only sms.apk able to notify me of incomming text at the time. You may give it a try

No need for this post. There is a Q&A thread as well as original thread for questions pertaining to Zeus. You may want to start there...
Hello all.
I just bought my galaxy s3 today and i've been having some problems. I've done a search throughout the forums and i couldn't find anything on it so i thought i'll give it a shot by posting a thread.
After i receive a text message the notification won't go away. Even after i have read and replied the notification still stays.
Also i have a folder made to keep all the apps that use on the front screen. after pressing the home button to close an app the folder opens up.
i googled these problems and have found questions without any answers. If anyone can shed a light on what the issue is and how to fix it i'd greatly appreciate it. thanks!
Alright I've searched everywhere and I know there's a cure, but where and how. I've found a few threads with people experiencing my same issues regarding the volume on the verizon samsung galaxy s3 sch 1535. Here's the issue, extremely loud almost echoie and can't find a way to turn it down. Tried every possible option that phone has to offer and can't seem to get this issue under control. I'm currently rooted running superchargedwiz rom kyjelly. Only things I have not tried yet were to disable a few of the audio apps that are installed in this rom, don,t know for sure if they would have anything to do with this issue or not. I know full well there has to be a way to access the root of the phone and possibly make a few volume adjustments, but how. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated...
Try selecting the default app for sound effects in settings /sounds, if that doesn't work, try uninstalling one of them like musicfx, I like noozxide better. Reboot, and check the sound again.

Alright here goes in playing around with all settings and see about the musicfx, switched back and forth between beats and musicfx, for some reason volume got better. although i just got an error message regarding musicfx. force closed on me and said musicfx suddenly stopped working, quite strange. could it have had something to do with the extreme volume and not being able to adjust it. may also try to download noozxide.

Maybe someone else can help me with this.
Every so often during the day I keep getting a random notification sound with no visual as to what it is. The sound is 5 tones going in a descending pattern and sounds metallic. I do not have NFC turned on nor the facebook app. I checked all my apps and sounds. I even read a lot of threads else where and tried everyone's suggestion. Still does it. I searched my phone for *.ogg and *.wav files. Nothing.
I do have a wallet case but since NFC is off its not that. I've never heard this sound before. It only started a few days ago and I've have this phone for over a month. FYI I'm running the Hola launcher and omni swipe if that helps. Any suggestions?
I am thinking to uninstall ALL my apps and see if it still does it, but I really dont want to have to do that if I can avoid it.:silly:
Bump
Anyone?
Maybe it's the louncher. .. trai with the touchwiz

It's not the launcher. It doesn't matter.
This is why I hardly ask anything here. No one cares.
If your not a popular member you never get a reply.
I'll just ask my questions elsewhere where people actually care about you.
Are you using googles smartlock feature? When I first started using it I was receiving this weird notification which sounds like what you're talking about. It don't do it no more for some reason but man was it so annoying not knowing what the heck your phone is trying to tell you.

Hey there.
I have been checking back on this topic for a while because my wife's Note Edge is having the same exact problem. I even reached out to Samsung Mobile Support and they can't even figure out what it is. All they did was tinker with the sound settings and asked me if it was fixed. I have tried disabling all possible notifications from all possible apps. The only thing left is to do a factory reset it seems. Any luck on your end?

Well that's not a pessimistic attitude or anything whatsoever! lol. Here's the thing... It might help to try and remember that nobody is on here getting paid to spend their time answering your questions all day long, so unfortunately it's inevitable that there will be times when people might just have to figure their problems out on their own or just be forced to wait until someone responds.. no matter how "popular" they might be.
This entire community wouldn't exist if weren't for all of the people on here who have been and are willing to spend their own free time sharing their knowledge with and helping others, so it's pretty ridiculous to sit there and act like it's a personal assault whenever nobody answers your question right away! From my experience on here people (including myself) are always more than willing to help out whenever they can (as long as the people are willing to help themselves too), but since nobody is getting paid people need to realize that it's more of a "self help" type of community than anything.
There are literally mountains of freely available information for people to search through to try to find their answers with, and with enough determination and persistence 99% of the time people could answer their own questions without ever even having to ask. So I'm definitely not trying to be rude or anything but it's just all in how you look at it.. because when people come here expecting to be handed all of the answers then they're most likely going to be disappointed and upset, but when you come here looking to help yourself instead you'd be surprised how much of a difference it makes and how rarely you'll have to ask any questions.
Anyway I'll try helping with some suggestions below since they're having the same problem too..

Ok I've actually had a similar problem in the past and I can't guarantee anything but hopefully this might help..
In my situation it turned out being "profiles" that I didn't realize were turned on, and they were causing rogue and unknown sounds to happen because they were overriding my ringer and media volume settings based on the time of day it was. So all I had to do was turn off the profiles and it solved the problem, but it depends on the rom that you're on as to whether or not profiles like that are even an option.
If not another thing I'd recommend doing (and I'm obviously not sure what all you've tried so I'm just trying to cover the bases just in case) is to get a root explorer (as long as you're rooted.. if not I'm honestly not sure what to tell ya) and navigate to the root folder .. then go to "system/media", and inside there should be a folders called ui, notification, and ringtones.. and this where all of the default notification sounds are located. I would go through and listen to each one of them (they should be .ogg files) and see if you can find a match to the one you're hearing, and if you do then you can just rename that file .bak instead of .ogg and that should stop it from playing randomly (basically a bandaid type fix).
If it's not any of the system sounds then you've basically narrowed it down to where it's most likely an app that's making the sound. If that's the case then what I'd do is go into Titanium Backup and filter it to only show "user apps" and then have it sort them by the date which they were installed, and then I'd just start going down the list looking for apps I've installed that could possibly be making the sound.. that way even if you have a general idea around when the problem started happening you can match that time frame up with apps that were installed around that time to narrow down your search (if that makes sense anyway).
Anyway that's what I would do to start at least and hopefully it helps!

heh. I have an idea. You know those crappy applications on the edge? Some of them are games. I remember i used to have this issue with the memory one. Remove them from the edge. No root required. Just remove the panels from the panel configurator.

Not sure if this is gonna help you or not. But yesterday I started to getbthe same metallic noises, I only recall 1 change to my settings and that was installing the live wallpaper on the lock screen to show me pictures based in weather and such. And since then every hour or so it makes the sound. Try to find out if you did the same thing.
Random notification sound
I am having a similar problem which has been widely reported but none of the suggested fixes are working for me. The notification tone keeps sounding in a seemingly random way. There is no notification to match the tone. This is not just a beep or random noise. It is the default notification tone. (Skyline for completeness). This happens maybe 5 or 6 times in 24 hours. It has been happening for about 10 days.
I am running Android 8.0.0 (Samsung Experience version 9) on a Galaxy S8. The phone is not rooted.
I have turned off all notifications individually.
I have turned off notifications for the phone.
I have turned off notification reminders (it was never on).
I have turned off NFC and bluetooth.
I have checked under Accessibility settings.
I have uninstalled every app installed in the last 3 weeks.
I can reproduce the NFC and credit card issue but that is a single beep and not what I am talking about.
I have installed 3 different notification log readers (NS Notification, Notif log notification history and Notification Log). None of them show any activity at the times when I am getting the spurious tone.
When I re-enable notifications for Texts, Messenger and WhatsApp, I still receive these as normal.
I recently got a new dual band router and thought maybe the tone was the phone jumping from 2.4 to the 5 Ghz band or vice-versa. It wasn't. I thought it might be the phone jumping from telecoms provider to WiFi. Tested that too and that's not it.
Next step is a factory reset which I am trying to avoid.
I know this is bringing problems to the table, not solutions but this is really bugging me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
