hi last night i discovered my touch pro does a strange ping sound every couple minutes. It's really annoying and i've been trying a lot to find out what it is. I don't know for how long it's been doing that, it might be possible it's been for a longer time and i just didn't hear it because it's rather low volume.
It definately comes from the speaker and sounds like an alert or something. But theres nothing on the screen.
I've made a video to make clear what exactly the issue is like:

- it also happens when in airplane mode and phone is muted or set to vibrate
- this sound isn't affected by the system volume
- a hard reset didn't help
- another ROM didn't help
- another radio didn't help
- it also sounds while flashing a ROM or Radio!!!
- [edit] revert to stock ROM and Radio didnt help!
Anyone has a clue what it could be? It's driving me crazy and might become the reason for a touch pro toilet flush death!
Sounds like you covered all the bases already, but I guess you could also try keeping it unplugged and removing the battery and leaving it like that for a day or something.
I can't find anything like this. I wake up this morning to a call and upon hanging up, the hang up sound is a lower tone than normal. I think nothing of it since I'm still out of it. Later, I adjust the phone volume and the beep that it makes is the same lower tone. At this point I try putting on music and it sounds like it went down an octave. I'm kind of freaking out because this is a MAJOR problem for me. It does the same thing when I plug headphones in so it isn't just the speaker. How in the world does this happen and what can I do to fix it? Was there an update this morning that may have done this?
Hello Guys,
I'm having serious problems with my XZP
I bought it on september 2017, for 5 months worked like a charm.
After february 2018 he started to get mad without any reason, i wasn't able to make any call even pressing several time the call button in recent call list, after 40 sec the phone start to call also if was locked in my pocket.
Got slow for no reason during the normal use (switching tabs on chrome, opening apps ecc), and getting hot for no reason.
Checked the background apps and not found one that was using too much battery (I use same apps, i don't download suspicious app from play store/internet).
I performed a system restore by phone settings, all good, but after almost one month i've got the same problems.
I decide to return it back to amazon and take a brand new one.
New one arrived, after 1 month i've got similar problems, but, when I was trying to make a phone call, the phone made no tone, even if someone answered there was no sound on both phones, sometimes also after many attemps or reboots, i had the same problem, when my friend called me back, there was no issues.
During a phone call, if a tone was played (like the one at the supermarket for announcments) the microphone got mute without any reason and without notify on the dispaly, so i had to call back.
During a video, the screen freezed, i thougt that could be normal, but the video was saved with that problem(it's ridiculous that a "super camera phone" freezes for a 30 sec video).
The phone doesn't ring anymore, no notification sound, no system sound until you reboot it.
Now, I repaired the software with xperia companion (uploaded on the phone, clean), and after 20 days, i've just got similar issue: During a phone call, no tone and no voice at the answer.
Problem with audio, during listening to music or watching a video, if i receive a notification, the volume remains low and i have to pause/play to get the audio back.
With whatsapp, when i listen to vocal messages i get the same problem, also if i open the keyboard
I really don't know what i have to do, i cannot reset every month the phone because is buggy.
I wroted also to xperia support, but they suggested me to repair the software... again?
P.S. I use Huawei 2 Smartwatch, could be the source of my problems?
All the calls are intended as normal calls and not Voip
Thanks

its your watch.
I cant determinely speak, but a normal XZP shouldnt act like that, also its been replaced once or twice in your case so it cant be the unit it self its some thing else, try to repair and not use the watch with it and see how it goes.

Hi Mate,
I disconnected the watch while facing the low playback audio, immediately the audio get louder as it should.
The problem is the watch, now i will see if there are other case, if my watch is defective and replace it, or give away.
thanks!
after more than one month using Huawei watch 2 as standalone i didn't faced any problem descrived above...
damn watch.
I've been experiencing some beep sounds when taking my phone quickly out of my pocket, but I can't figure out why.
The only thing I've figured out is that it happens when I pull it quickly and my thumb is covering the whole front speaker area (including sensors, led and front camera), but I didn't manage to reproduce it consistently.
Has anyone else experienced this or figured out why it happens?

I have the same problem! It's extremely annoying. Please help! It slowly beeps 4 times after I lock it and place on a table right away. Rarely it starts beeping when I unlock it!
I've also started having this issue, probably started about 6 or so hours ago. Four consecutive descending beepboop tones, persists after restarting phone, doesn't sound familiar or seem to be caused by any app as far as I can tell. Even tried running some anti-virus apps and couldn't find anything, but I'm not sure those normally do anything anyways. I'm on a OnePlus 6 running oxygenOS 9.0.6.
Edited to add that I have worked out what the notificaiton is that is making this sound. It's under software and it flashes up with "detecting" and I hear the sound every time. Does anyone know what this issue is?
I have had my phone for around 4 weeks and it was working fine until yesterday when it starting making a random notification sound on and off all day. It was happening when I had the phone in my hand and when I had the phone on the table next to me. One thing I have noticed is that it only does it when the screen is not locked. Sometimes it did it 10 times in a row other times only once and then not again for an hour. Oppo Support tried all the troubleshooting and nothing worked. We have turned all notifications off and the sound it is making isn't a sound that I have saved for any sort of notification - it is the sound an iphone makes when a charger is disconnected. The next step is for me to do a full factory re-set which I am very reluctant to do - I found transferring my data to this phone extremely slow/frustrating. Does anyone know why this would be happening?
