Love this phone, with 1 exception. For some reason I periodically hear my default notification sound, but when I unlock the phone there is no visual evidence of a notification. Sometimes it repeats the sound the sound for about 30 seconds too.
I downloaded "Notification History" app and it doesn't show anything either.
Any ideas what I may be able to do to figure out what is causing this issue?

I've read on other threads that other people would have this happen, with random chargers. So if yours is plugged in this could also be the case for you, but i have not ran into this at all..

This is an odd issue I've had since day one.
I've defined a notification sound for all incoming events, however, when I receive an SMS text from a certain contact, my phone plays a Led Zeppelin tune I have on my SD card.
Doesn't happen with anything else.
It's driving me insane cause I can't find this setting anywhere.
Anyone else experience this and have any suggestions?

Have you tried going into settings inside the sms app to change it? thats how I did mine.
I'm having the same problem. I've gone through all of the notification settings many times and still no luck.
I've noticed that, for some reason, during the day my notifications won't sound. The phone will vibrate but I have missed calls, SMS, emails, etc. because of this. The phone is DEFINITELY on loud and I am NOT changing the volume in pocket (it happens with or without case). Everytime it happens, I checked my volume and it is all the way up.
Any ideas? PS - happens on any ROM

I had a similar issue that turned out to be due to my own mis-setting of CyanogenMod's quiet hours <.< 12PM is different than 12AM.
In your case it sounds like there is a setting somewhere that is preventing there from being a notification sound. Do you use stock messaging and gmail? Go into the settings for those applications (stock or non) and check to make sure its set correctly. Has this always been true? Have you tried doing a full factory reset? It sucks but its the best way to gauge whether or not you are experiencing a setting issue or if its really a hardware issue. Do your calls ring?

I appreciate the help; I'll check quiet hours. As I stated, calls have the same problem. Notifications are definitely properly configured in their respective apps because I get the sounds sometimes.

In your Sound -> Volume Make sur ethe "Use incoming call volume for notificatons" radio is ticked. Turn ringer all the way up and see if you can hear your notifications.
Is there any way to turn on notification sounds (for new text msg or email etc.) during phone calls?
I find myself constantly taking my phone away from my ear during calls to check if there are any new notifications since the sounds get muted during call and find this kind of annoying. Seems like this should be a standard option, no?
Turn on pulse notification light in display.
You really talk on the phone so much and receive so many notifications that this is a problem?

Notification pulse is turned on - that has nothing to do with sound. It bothers me because notification sounds worked just fine during calls on my Galaxy Nexus.
If I talk on the phone for 40 minutes but I get an important text message 5 minutes into the call that needs a timely response, yes, it is a problem.
Anyone have any ideas? This is an annoying issue.
+1. I'm looking to see if there's a solution for this.
Yes , I need to know the answer to the same , because missing out on important messages are a fear when I am on long calls . Thanks .
Anything new on this? Just got my Nexus 5 and I'm having the same issue.
Use tasker. Make a profile that makes a short vibration upon receiving a notification. You could use a sound instead of vibrate, but imo that would be annoying for you and the person you're on the phone with.
Nexus 5 issue.
There's a simple solution for this., just go into your settings>sounds and notification >interruptions. Here you can edit what notification will interrupt you while being on a call.
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.
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.
