I have a rooted S7 on Verizon with PG5 baseband and build number. All of a sudden starting the past day or 2, I have been getting random notification sounds with no notifications to account for it. I installed a notification logger to see if I could figure out where it is coming from, but there are no notifications logged at the times it is happening. I have turned down the volume for notifications, but this random sound is still as loud as before and it is not the sound that is set for notifications, anyway. I did not install anything new before this problem started and I am at my wit's end trying to figure out the source of the sound. Does anyone have any ideas?
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!
I'm at wits end trying to fix this issue. My Gmail notifies just fine (a bit slow on the syncing sometimes) but has sound notifications when the phone is locked.
However I have set up in the settings for sound notifications on YouTube and YT Studio but have the issue of it won't sound until the phone is unlocked which is annoying.
Thanks!
Edit: To add, it seems that these notifications that don't work on the lock screen also ignore the rules of do not disturb while everything else follows. It's very odd.
Hello friends,
I am facing a weird issue after stable upgrade to 9.0,
My mobile randomly turns the sound off for the new notifications , even when the profile is in loud mode.
Still the device sounds out loud for incoming phone calls but notifications were muted.
I have tried all sorts of tinkering under the Notifications & Sounds and nothing works other than rebooting the device.
I am in October 2018 Patch , with android 9.0. This happens once in 3 days ,
Even I tried hard reset but it doesn't helped me.
I have the same problem.
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?
