A few months ago I started getting a random alarm/notification sound (like 2 seconds long, really loud) with no notification shown at all (screen off). Everyday at the same time. Exactly 10:02 in the morning. It's specially annoying since the phone makes the sound even with Not Disturb on.
I thought maybe the Android 10 update would solve this issue. Nope.
Things I've noticed/tried:
1) The sound isn't part of the clock alarm list of alarm tones.
2) I've already done a full factory reset, manually re-installed all my apps. Still there.
3) If my device is in Airplane Mode, the sound isn't there: as soon as I turn off airplane mode and I get internet connection again, the device makes the sound.
4) I've tried looking at recent notifications (system notifications included) through settings. Nothing.
I attach screenshots of all my downloaded apps:

I'll see if I can record the sound tomorrow and then upload it.
My device is an SM-G970F Galaxy S10e.
I'm desperate. Please help.

Hello, i have my nexus 5 for 2 weeks now and I noticed a problem my friend with a N5 doesn't have.(or anyone else) At night, right before I sleep i put my phone on silent so i dont get awakened by calls or anything else . But if i set it on silent the alarm volume gets on silent as well.
Seriously, i didn't have this problem on any other device and everyone sets his phone on silent for obvious reason. I had android 4.2.2 on my older device and even there you could tick "Alarm on silent".
What's causing this bug?
Stock Android 4.4.2
Edit: this is a basic feature every phone has, please dont suggest me getting 3rd party alarms from the google play store, thanks.
Try checking the alarm volume in settings and see if it changes when you put the phone in silent/vibrate.
It shouldn't.
Yes, when i put it on vibrate/silent i cant even scroll the alarm's volume in settings , it goes straight to no volume.
There's a post with users complaining about the exact opposite. They want to know why the phone isn't 100% silent when in silent mode. This would contradict what's happening to you.

Ok, what can i do to repair this bug?
I just tested this on my Nexus 5, and I can confirm that this is NOT happening on mine. Setting the phone to vibrate or even silent has no effect on my alarm setting whatsoever. (See the attached image. Note the vibrate icon in the notification bar.)
Do you possibly have a third-party alarm or other sound-controlling app installed? You say your phone is stock, but do you have anything such as Xposed, that can affect system settings?
I know it's probably the last thing you want to do, but you might try doing a hard-reset, and seeing if the conditions persist BEFORE installing any 3rd party apps. If it's working normally at that point, then keep checking it as you reinstall your apps to see if you can narrow down the culprit. If it DOES persist with a freshly wiped device, then you may want to call Google support, as that would be considered a defect.
Oh! Also, make sure you're on the latest build (KOT49H). If you're on an earlier build for some reason, it could be why your device is acting differently than everyone else's.

Hard restted once with the apps being restored and it was the same, then i hard resetted the last time without signing in my google account and everything works fine now, thanks!
did you ever find out which app caused this? i have the same problem
it might be a late answer, but it may help anyone who happens to find this post with this issue (as i did)...
I was having the exact same problem with my alarm, but I noticed that it happened after installing "Alarmy (Sleep if you can)" app from play store. It somehow overrides system volumes, and locks it after uninstall.
I reinstalled it and set the alarm volume from inside that app, and now it works as expected to do (silient ringer with alarm on).
This might happen with other Alarm apps, remember if you did install any.
Hopefully it helps someone, as this happened even on 4.4.4

I have figured out that problem happened after installing "Xtreme alarm clock."
And I solved this problem with "Alarmy(Sleep If U Can)."
Thanks for your information.
This morning my alarm did not sound. Checked all settings everything was set to on.
Tried to call the phone no sound. Re-booted and everything is now working as it should.
Also 3 times in the last two days the screen has frozen and I have had to reboot the power using the power button.
Has anyone else had these issues?
I am using this as stock with the latest OTA update.
Same issue here.
Everything is working fine, but ~1-2 Times a day the Screen stays black and won't turn on again until a reboot via the power button. But the touch is working, because after the reboot some of the apps on my homescreen are moved (because I moved them while whiping on the black screen). Everything else is fine, CM11S Stock latest, *33R.
Just changed the Gov from "Interactive" to "On Demand", no other Modifications.
Greets, Alex
I'm having problems in this area as well, my notification will not work. I do not get any notification sounds at all even though everything is on. My call ringtone work fine, nut no notifications, not from email, or my third part oultook email app, and neither from my SMS's. It was all finw in the beginning but now it just stopped working. I got the phone with 33r and stock, have not done anything to the phone yet, and don't want to, but i cant figure this issue out.......any help would be greatly appreciated......

I have also same problem... Do you get any solution for this ?
Just realize with your post that I have not posted an update......I like a certified dildo, had my phone in 'night' mode from the advanced power menu.... Put back to normal.....issue resolved......I would prefer more notification choices out the box, but that's easily fixed.....

Perhaps related to Quiet Hours getting stuck?

Interesting. I've been having the same problem, and this prompted me to take a look at my Quiet Hours setting. On the Quick Settings panel I noticed that the Quiet Hours icon was lit. That was odd, because I was well outside of the quiet hours I had set. When I tapped the icon, it would not change. I had to long press, toggle a setting, and exit back out before the icon started working normally again. Now everything seems to be fine. Hope this helps someone; the problem was driving me nuts!
I too have had this issue! No lights, sound and action
But I solved my problem :=) on my own because I'm Mister Wonderful :>
I reinstalled the quiet hours tile.
Then I went into quiet hours setting and changed hours from 00:00 & 00:00 to 01:00 & 07:00. The latter being outside the current time of day I was working in.
Then I went back to the quiet hours tile and turned it off. Holy Smokes this time it actually worked.
Because the power charger was connected the notification lamp began to burn green again. SMS notification sounds were heard. Even "You got mail" wasn't afairid to stand up to be heard.
Another wonderul day in paradise!
Hi all,
My Xperia Z3 was working great until I updated to the dreaded 5.1.1. Along with the other known bugs (USSD, battery drain, etc..), my phone is not ringing at all. The ringer slider is grayed out and cannot be moved. After rebooting, the ringer works for 1 or 2 calls then it goes back to silent. Have anyone faced this issue?

You need to do a factory reset.
I had that problem sort of. My phone after flashing a particular rom would basically go straight to voicemail. Called my isp, turned voicemail off, alls well.
Thanks for the answers. I noticed that when I disable background processes in Developer options the ringtones work fine. However, disabling background processes messes up the phone and many apps don't work properly. I might try factory reset but I was hoping for a simpler fix for this issue.
Hi..
My problem is: my alarms have stopped working.
I've actually overslept two times now, because the alarm wouldn't go off.
I've checked all related settings and my system is on normal-sound settings. Yet, even when I set a test alarm, It won't go off.
It's kinda frustrating, really .
i own a note 20 ultra SM-N9860 from past week a random notification sound plays from the phone with no visible notification on the screen. This happens atleast 2-3 times during the day,it does occur at a specific time during the day things i have verified are as below:
1. NFC is disabled
2. Notification reminder are set to off
3. No Flash notifications turned on
4. Data Cache Wipe already done.
5. App preferences already reset.
6. The sound heard is not available in the system list of sounds
7. Checked all installed apps , no notification access found
8. No Bixby routines made
Any help is deeply appreciated, this is driving me nuts.

Install Nicecatch by Samsung. It'll log all notifications so you can view the source.

Thanks for the reply,just installed it today and waiting for the issue to occur again
Just had the issue again, have noticed a pattern this happens around same time daily, nothing shows on the nice catch app ,wondering if this can be network related ,this is driving me crazy
Just checking back again if anyone has any suggestions,i did a phone reset and didn't face the issue for a week,and now its back
Sounds like maybe the reset fixed it, but some app you're installing or some setting you're enabling is causing this. I know if I temporarily lose service (dead zone) I'll get the same notification sound as my text message.

I might be due to Galaxy store update. When ever an app gets updated from galaxy store i here sound. Try disabling notification for galaxy store and experiment...
