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.

Hey guys, I've got a problem, and I'd ask it in the dev thread for this ROM, but seeing as I'm just a newb, I'm not allowed to post there. I've done some light searching around the forum and haven't found an answer, but if I happened to miss it, please forgive me for my newbishness.
Let me preface this by saying hot dang, I am SO glad that I flashed my Skyrocket with SKY-ICS. I've been running stock for half a year and after tasting SKY-ICS, I'll NEVER go back. I've seen that Seanz has worked up a great reputation with this SKY-ICS and now I can see why!
Anyways, my problem is that whenever I'm running PowerAmp and I put my screen to sleep, it stops playing music. When I turn my screen back on, I can quickly see up top that PowerAmp just gets activated again, like putting my phone to sleep caused it to terminate the application. I'm guessing this could be a design in the actual SKY-ICS, as in maybe it forces my phone into deep sleep when I press the power button? The only thing that confuses me on that is that Spotify will run perfectly even when my phone is "asleep."
Is anyone else having this problem? Or at least does anybody have any suggestions as to what I could do to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help guys!
Check your Settings in Poweramp.

Thanks for the reply, but I did already check on that, and I enabled "Use Wakelock," but that didn't seem to fix the problem... Any other suggestions?

Not sure. I'm running aokp and have no problems with poweramp. Maybe it's rom-related, i'm not too sure. I'll poke around and see if I can think of anything else.
Edit: Wondering if it's maybe due to whatever was stripped from the rom itself. Have you tried the regular safe base? If not, maybe you should make a nandroid and give it a shot if you're willing.

I may give that a shot whenever I get a little bit of time this weekend. I kind of figured it would be something that was stripped or something, but I couldn't ask it in the dev thread. Upon some more in-depth searching in the official thread (I discovered this handy search bar labeled "Search Thread"! Who knew?) I was able to come across a temporary solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28593163&postcount=114
But like I said, I'll probably troubleshoot it by trying out the other flavor, but this is a temporary solution that oughta work... If I find anything else out, I'll be sure to update this thread. Thanks for your willingness to help out a newb, btm fdr!
I just tested this and have the same problem. It's always worked on past SKY ICS Roms. This will be a HUGE inconvenience for me since I listen to music while riding my motorcycle. As soon as the screen goes off, PowerAmp stops playing.
I'll post it in the "SKY ICS AT&T Official" thread.
It's running fine for me on the dragon. Wakelock is unchecked.

I saw this thread in the Skyrocket General section, and then tested myself and realize I am experiencing the same issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770780
I'm currently running:
4.2F6 R2 Rom (not speed dragon)
Update 1.7
UCLF6 modded kernel
Issue/symptom:
When playing music in PowerAmp, music stops playing as soon as screen shuts off. Music resumes when screen awakens. EDIT: music doesn't resume automatically.... I have to manually restart it in the PowerAmp player. I am double checking all settings in PowerAmp...
This is a major inconvenience since I listen to music while riding my motorcycle.
I haven't experienced this issue on previous SKY ICS. It worked perfectly on the "SKY ICS Rogers official release". All PowerAmp settings are the same from previous ROM versions (restored from Titanium Backup)
Thanks in advance!

I uninstalled/reinstalled PowerAmp, left the default settings, and it resolved the problem.
I went through each setting individually and confirmed that if I check:
Settings > Lock Screen > Enable Lock Screen
If that is checked, it breaks. If that is unchecked PowerAmp plays while screen is off.
This is a new "issue" on this Rom.
I also don't have the lock screen power amp controls. *shrug* I can live without that.
Thanks for posting the issue in the official thread. I agree, I can do without the controls if I must (as I only discovered them a few weeks ago,) but they really are handy to have. I'll keep an eye on the official thread for answers too.
The process is probably being turned off in setting on power amp theres a box to keep service on when screen is shut off,SKY ICS is a very awsome ROM though I was on it for some time

I tried turning that "keep service on" on/off eariler today while troubleshooting. That had no affect. Like I previously posted, the setting that "breaks" it is the "Enable Lock Screen" in the PowerAmp Lock Screen Settings.
I also tested it with different lock screens (AOSP, Stock TW Launcher Lock Screen, etc...)
This wasn't an issue on the "Rogers" (AT&T Safe) release. This just started happening since I flashed tot he new "AT&T Official" release. I've been using SKY Roms on the SkyRocket since December, and this is the first time it's had this symptom.
I too have only had the problem when setting the poweramp lockscreen not the ics lockscreen that is the only way i can change my music on lock. If i hit enable poweramp lockscreen i get a fc. I havent had the problem of music stopping when i lock my screen, then again i bought my poweramp on the offical site and thats where you can download both the app and the key. So maybe download the app from the site? Has anyone had a probelm with the playlists? I would make a playlist and have like 60 or so songs and every now and then they disappear? Sometimes it just goes to 0 songs but the playlist is still there. I export/import my playlists now to another location but i havent had the time to explore this situation.
I've rooted my Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket and inserted ArmyVet AOKP ROMand everything was fine until today for some odd reason whenever I use the single button headset instead of changing, pausing or playing it increases the volume. I cannot find the reason nor the app that is causing it. Don't want to go through the long process of testing each app. anyone experienced this before or knows the app or solution?

hey all
I just got my new Note 10.1 from amazon few hrs ago (thanks for the awesome forum which convinced me to buy this).
The problem is that, I cant get any sounds when I play the demo video, or you tube or pandora etc. I get notification sounds though which I get email. I did factory rest once and still the problem exist. i made sure the volume is at high in all sound settings.
Hope to get feedback,help soon.
Device info:
Model number GT N8013
android 4.04
kernel version 3.0.15 - 1081475
Thanks
Cheers

I did factory reset again and its working.. all izz welll now.. but just wondering what caused the problem earlier..
last reset to this reset every variable (apps, settings) was same. so is this a big problem?
Cheers
Thanks

You probably had a mute setting that hung itself, rebooting the device likely cleared that. The good thing is that you have it back in pristine condition.

In that case, be careful what you install. Re-Install your stuff from play store in batches and then leave it a couple of days. If it doesn't mute then put the next batch. PITA but may help you to identify which one it is.
next time it happens why dont you go into apps and force close each one and clear data one at a time to see if the sound comes back, you may find out which one it is this way. I'd also mute / unmute inbetween each app closure. - logical process of elimination is the way forward.
No sound in movies, media with galaxy note 10.1
I got sounds from notifications , ringing, but no media sounds.. tried to factory reset my note.. but the problem is still there.. dunno what to do?
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:

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.
Hello!
I have an odd issue with my samsung s8.
So in the past week or so, my phone will make a notification sound or vibrate, but nothing is in the notification bar. Also notifications for telegram don't show up either. I've checked my settings and nothing has changed. I tried to change the settings under apps - special access - optimise battey usage and disabled telegram, however this has not helped.
The phone has been working perfectly untill now.
The firmware is upto date and i've not installed any new apps recently.
It's annoying as hell.
I could reset my phone, but I wanted to see if anyone had any other ideas?
I'm running andriod 8.0.0
