Normally I just leave my phone on vibrate throughout the day, however I turn it onto ring at night. Whenever I bump up the volume on notifications, what sounds like a shortened version of one of the notifications plays over and over and over and it does not stop. I have rebooted the phone, reflashed it, wiped all caches, fixed permissions, and it still plays as soon as the phone boots up. When this occurred my battery life was low, however I have had the phone at this charge and lower (sub 10%) before and it didn't loop the sound.
I've searched around the net for an answer but I can't seem to find one. Is there a setting or something that will stop the sound (without turning off notifications in general), or is this something that happens when the battery is low? I am not quite sure what to do at this point.
Help.

im also experiancing this, it started with a few but latley its whenever i turn on the screen it goes off like once every 3-4 secs.
Hey there,
I've googled around and can't seem to find an answer to this...
I bought my Nexus 5 last week from the Play Store and I've been noticing a weird behaviour during calls. Sometimes, I stop hearing the other person, for a very brief period (it has lasted from 3s to about 20/30s). After a certain time, with no user interaction (and provided the other caller does not disconnect), the call comes back.
What's even more weird is that, when this happens, the proximity sensor stops working. The screen turns on and, no matter how close it is to my face (or even if I place a finger over it), it does not turn off for the duration of the "blackout". Everything else is responsive (touchscreen, other phone functions, etc). I'm not sure, but I think the reception bars show no change.
During this "blackout", the other callers report that they cannot hear me speaking.
Should I send it to warranty? Is there a fix? I'm currently running Android KitKat 4.4.2 stock, with no updates to download (I believe 4.4.3 has already been released, but don't know if it will address my issue). My model is the D821.
Thanks for the help

Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls
Hi all,
I had a quick search on the forums but couldn't find anything related to this. I'm unsure if it's a problem with just the Pixel 2 XL or Android. I've installed all OTA updates and the phone is running 8.1.0. It had both of these errors prior to updating. I have also replaced the entire handset and tested again. Still occurring. I have a Pixel 2 also, which does NOT experience these issues. I'm also running stock, no root/roms. *edit* I went through Google support for both issues, they couldn't find any solutions. They suggested a factory reset and then replaced the handset.
The dialer:
Intermittent problem. Basically when you open the dialer or a contact and initiate a call, the app often freezes for an indeterminate amount of time. It could be 10 seconds it could be over a minute. Eventually it will move to the "call" screen and then freezes/lags again. Once more this can be any length of time up to a minute or more. All other apps work perfectly fine during this process. Eventually the call initiates and you can hear it ring, once in call everything behaves normally.
The notifications:
This one is simple. During a call receiving an SMS or other notification results in an electronic beep sound which plays at full volume. It does the same thing after the call ends. I'm not sure if it's using call or external speakers as the volume is so damn loud it doesn't matter. It legitimately causes me to throw the phone away from my ear and I cannot hear anything besides buzzing for 20 minutes. It actually hurts.
Nothing I do has stopped this except to turn on DND before I make or receive a call, which is useless. I read a few other threads about this being a new feature in 8.1.0 and "intentional". However I think those are referring to the call end beep, or notifications during a call that make the designated notification sound, not a deafening beep. The threads I read suggested removing third party apps and phone permissions, I used a brand new handset and the beeps still happened.
Please does anyone have a suggestion? I'll try anything at this point.

If you don't have issues with the Pixel 2 and do have issues with the Pixel 2XL, why don't you ask in the Pixel 2XL forum?

Hey, did you get any answers on this,. I'm having the same frustrating issue.
I just started to have this problem a few days out of nowhere. Some on Reddit are having issues too.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/80qh32/pixel_2_xl_dialer_problems/
I found that plugging the phone into charge or computer fixes the issues for a little bit...
Had similar issues with my Verizon Pixel 2. After some searching, I restarted the phone in safe mode and the problem went away, meaning it's a non-stock app interfering with the phone app. I restarted in 'normal' mode, uninstalled Facebook (it's always f'ing Facebook), and have had zero issues since.

Thanks for the fix! Phone.app was killing me!
Everytime I receive a call using either Instagram or Whatsapp my notifications and phone sounds go haywire after. Immediately after if I use the volume buttons on the side they control the audio for ringtone but not volume for anything else. All sounds are muffled and low or don't ring or make any sound at all. The only option is to restart the phone. So now I'm restarting the phone several times a day.
I've checked zen mode, its off. I've checked adaptive battery, that's not it. I've hard reset the phone 4 times and eventually loaded apps one by one until I found it to be happened with Whatsapp and Instagram. I'm not using the beta of either app.
I've had this issue from day one with this phone. I thought it was the phone, had it replaced within a week of getting it from TMO and its still continuing. This is strange, especially coming from a 6T. I'm at my wits end and ready to get rid of this thing. Anyone else come across this?
I bought the phone since sep, phone calls drops happens in every single situation home, in work,
I tried every possible solution, even flashed custom lineage rom, while calling the other side voice suddenly dissappear then call drops after 5 secs, this can be avoided if i removed the phone off my ear and let the display turn on. Do u think the phone has a hardware prob?
