I'm running the Deodexed EF02 ROM and every coulple days I'm on a call and it drops and the dial tone sound immediately follows.
Anybody else having this issue or know why I'm having it?
I've had this happen before but its been more of a random thing. It's happened to me randomly on different android versions so I can't narrow anything down. The interesting thing about hearing a dial tone is that even in this day and age our modern networks are still sitting on top of ma' bells original framework. Just a thought.
I've had this issue when my ear hits the "add call" button. I guess until I start running a ROM that shuts off the screen when I'm on a call, I'll have to use the new iPhone motto, "Hold Differently".

That makes sense. And lmao about the "Hold Differently" thing!

I had this with Schaps 4.01 and now with a new rom (can't recall ATM but not sure it matters since this is happening with 2 different roms).
When I'm getting an incoming call, the phone starts ringing and immediately stops if I turn the thumbwheel. This is usually accidental as I'm pulling the phone out of the pocket, but very unnerving as I don't know whether I've hung up, answered, or still need to answer.
Is the wheel supposed to make a sound that's somehow canceling out the current sound being played?
Is this a setting that can be changed or a "feature"? Or a bug?
I believe this is a feature. like most phones, when you hit 'down' it silences the ring.
it's a good thing.
-bZj
Yup, it's a feature.
I use it quite often when people call that I don't want to talk to at the time.
This way they don't know that I am ignoring them, as it continuous "ringing" silently.
I am not aware of a way of turning this off.
So if you accidentally hit the scroll wheel, then just look at the screen to see if you've hung up or still need to answer? That usually solves it for me right there..
That is correct.
This is not even a noob question. Check your device manuals.
It has happened about 3 times so far that my phone has made a series of loud beeping noises that lasts about 10 seconds with no discernible cause. Changing the volume does not stop it until I put it all the way down into vibrate mode. It almost sounds like it could be ringing but it isn't the ringtone I have set. When it happens, I check my notifications and running apps to no avail. Has anyone else experienced this? This is my first Android phone so it is possible I am doing something wrong. Any ideas?

Same thing here. The beeping starting happening sometimes when I rebooted but now it's been doing it pretty much every time I get a text message and it also randomly replaces my default ringtone when calls come in. It's a loud beeping down that lasts about two seconds and repeats over and over. Sometimes it stops itself after a few cycles but sometimes it will not stop until I acknowledge the notification (opening up the text or answering a cal). It's very annoying. Might have to try a hard reset soon.

Yeah, for some reason it seems the text notification ringtone will change back to that god-awful sound for no reason. Very annoying.
Do you have yurt phone setup to remind you of missed calls and text?

This happens when you've rebooted and gotten a message. Your SD card, containing your ringtone, hasn't mounted yet. The media scanner is running. Following this operation, the ringtone will work once more.
From some few days, strange beeping sound comes sometimes through my phone .When I check my phone there is no notification,& the sounds last for10-12 seconds, please help me if someone knows the reason.My phone is redmi Note 4g
TP2 - WM 6.1 - T-Mobile
Self Dials last number and Voice commands turn on - Spooky
About a week ago I started noticing a microphone (ala Larry King) in my notification area at the top of my home page. I would come and go and make a small beep sound. Finally realized it must be voice commands. Well I keep turning voice commands off but they keep turning on. I have loaded no new software in the last week. I have never used voice comamnds.
Also about a week ago - and it is getting worse - after making a phone call and hanging up, my TP2 will start dialing the last phone number out of nowhere. It usually happens when I am on my home screen and I now move the phone. TP2 is my first touch phone and I have always had a lot of fat finger dials. I always assumed it was something that I did. But now out of nowhere, I am on the home screen, the phone starts to dial. If I pick the phone up and shake it, it will start to dial. this will happen a couple of times and then it stops. thinking that it might be related to the voice commands, but not sure.
Any help or ideas?
OK, still baffled. I do have a voice mail notification and voice commands are turned off. If I pick up my phone kind of rough and shake it a bit it starts to dial my last phone call consistently now.
Please someone help me. My friends are hating me.
OK, so it is definately related to having the voice mail notification. If the voice mail notification is present, then picking up my phone, kind of like tossing it in the air a couple of inches and catching it, will make it start to dial my last call. Once I listen to the voice message (and the notificaiton is no longer there), picking up the phone roughly does not make it dial.
I do remember that about 10 days ago I uninstalled T-Mobile visual voice mail. Then I kept getting a text message and had to call T-Mobile to have them do something on their end.
Still I need help to understand how to stop it.
yea my phone was doing the same thing recently but it was only when i had it plugged up to my car charger. I assumed it had something to do with the charger but im not sure if thats the real problem
It may be that mine only does it when it is plugged to charge also. At work, where I have really begun to notice it, my phone is always plugged into a split that has a charger and headphones.
Sounds like your talk/phone button is getting stuck. On most roms if you press and hold it it initiates voice comm. Pressed once brings up dial pad, twice calls the last number, press and hold is voice comm. So most likely its the hardware. Either that or paranormal activity. Set up a camera to catch it in the act.
I was starting to wonder if it was hardware, because if I shake it it dials. The phone button getting stuck makes sense. I did not know that click twice would dial last number and click and hold would turn on voice commands. Thanks for the info - exactly what i was looking for. Luckily I bought additional coverage (I have a six year old that likes to play games on my phone). Love the keyboard of the TP2, but would really like to get an android os. We will see.
Thanks again.
Loving the phone...can't wait for JB....
Right now, running stock AT&T ROM...I'm got a few issues / bugs to report...wondered if anyone else sees these or knows a fix:
1. The notification sound for Calendar reminders can't be changed. It lets me pick a new / custom sound but it does not save the setting. Everytime I go back in it is back to the default.
2. Incoming calls - often as soon as I grab the phone (usually from my pocket but sometimes when it was just sitting on a table) the call is rejected as if I bumped something to do this. Only the phone is locked and I did not hit any buttons. I really doubt I keep hitting the red reject slider and sliding it across the phone accidently....not sure what is going on.
3. Texts - they seem to not come thru sometimes and I also rarely hear the notification or feel the vibration.
Anyone else having these issues?
Bump

1. Are you pressing the "OK" button (next to the "cancel" button) on the calendar ring tone selection screen? I've confused myself and pressed the "back" softkey, which wasn't lit up, since it was below the "OK" button thinking i was pressing ok (or because I often unthinkingly default to pressing back to exit a screen). Otherwise this should be working, if it really isn't saving you have a buggy device...
2. I've only had the phone a few days and picking up calls has been no problem (stock rom, not rooted yet).
3. I feel you on the text alerts, but i get them on time and get a vibration just not the default vibration "tone" i selected. Generally late text messages aren't an issue with the phone more likely the provider, but your two issues above may indicate the device is at fault.
I can't change my notification sound on calendar either. I called Samsung and they said to hard reset. I guess their tech support is just as useless as Motorola's. I wish I could be that lazy at my job; "well customer I see you have a problem, have you tried putting it back in the box and pulling i back out? That's all I can recommend."
Thanks...

Definitely hitting okay....it shows the correct ring tone....but when I go back into settings it is gone.
Answering calls is getting better....disabled the motion controls and some other things to make it hard to accidently reject the call.
We'll See...

Hoping Samsung's Jelly Bean release fixes these issues....or maybe a patch release or two after JB. If not, I will try CM10 or a JB-based AOKP build when they get a little more polished.
This issue is fixed in the latest ATT OTA update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801294#post31801294
Thanks!

Thanks for point this out! I had forgotten about it! The fix seems to have worked for me. Would be nice if all undocumented fixes like this were in one neat bullet-ed list for us to review....
Nah, then Samsung would have to acknowledge that they told a bunch of gullable people to factory reset for nothing
I have just recently purchased the galaxy note II and I'm starting to hear an annoying noise pop every 5 seconds if I have sound on. It usually happens when you press an application, type, go back, and press the menu button. Is this happening to other people or is it just me? You usually hear it in a silence place.

I've had the phone just over a month and not had any experience of this problem.

Go to settings and under sound option disable keypad tones and touch tones. This will help you I think.

It happens when i listen to audio or during a phone call too.
I returned the phone to the warranty provider they told me the next android update will fix this issue?

Usually, as in 'not always'? that's weird, can't be the touch sounds feedback then. Better return it, I've been lurking the forum lot lately and haven't read anything like it, I don't think a sw update will just fix it.
