Random ding-DING notification? ICS 4.0.2 Darkside Evolution v7 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I have a random notification sound on my phone and I can't figure out what it is. It's like a "reverse doorbell" if you can picture that. Instead of DING-ding, it's ding-DING...so low ding to high ding. When I go to my phone there is nothing in the notification area.
I don't have a ton of apps installed, about 3 pages worth when I pull up all of them.
I feel stupid for not being able to find out what's doing this, but I'm starting to get frustrated. Thanks for any help!

Try this: Go to into the Sound settings of your phone and navigate to the notification sound setting. Go through all the sounds and find the sound that matches the one you are hearing. Note the name of the sound and then go into each app that has a notification sound and see if any of the apps currently are set to that notification sound.
Or this: Turn off all notification sounds for all apps that give notification sounds (email accounts, calendar, SMS apps, etc). Confirm you no longer hear the sound and then one by one start enabling notification sounds for each app. Hopefully you will be able to pinpoint which app is making the sound.
Hope this helps!

Dingding
Did you check to see if your gmail account had notifications turned on? Mine kept making that ding-ding noise until I figured out how to disable it.

Ha, I was hoping to avoid this (going through each app) but that's what I did. Turns out it was Yahoo Mail. I turned off the notifications at the top of the screen, but they hid the notification "sound"! Thanks for your help!

(T-Mobile US) in-call notification

There is a sound that goes off faintly during a call when I get an email or a text. How do I change what that sound is? I can't seem to find it in settings. Maybe I'm looking past it? Can anyone help?
Thanks!
Start - settings - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications tab
There you can pick the sounds for any of your event notifications. The default one you hear is "Alert-Glass1"
Thank you! I hope that does it. I already have all of that set though. Perhaps what happened was that I got something other than a text or email that I haven't changed the sound for yet.

It should be automatic. I never really noticed if it made a sound or vibrated. Make sure your notification volume is all the way up. Enable vibration if you believe that would help. You'd feel a vibration on your ear, which might be better than sound.

Fulmics 6.1 missing notifications sound from NEXT SMS

I just installed Fulmics 6.1 onto Lg G3 D855/16GB.
All working nice except I lost notification sounds in Next SMS.
I don't get any sound when new ones arrives, if don't catch the screen that lights up for the sneak preview of SMS I miss the new SMS.
I tried to set the sound in both handcent > settings > notification as well as in Android settings > sound and notifications.
I am not in silent mode, yet notifications are still not playing sounds.
Any ideas?
To clarify things, I am not expecting this to be Fulmics causing this. More that now that I got both android 6 and fulmics 6.1 at the same time the GUI changed a lot and there might be other ways to adjust notification sound then what I have found.
I've tried all the settings I can think of.
I started out with Android settings, making sure notification sound was enabled.
Then I chose to set special sound for apps, and chose next sms.
To be certain I changed to the sound to a mp3 file in my download folder.
Still no sound.
Went into next sms > settings > All > Notification & Reminder > Notification settings > Notification Sound
Here I can see the sound has changed to myfile.mp3
Still no notification sounds.
Browse and google for answers and find a page telling me to reverse all things in sounds and notifications to NO SOUNDS. Well I tried, I even tried to follow the program and reboot for each change I made. After several reboots I eventually got to the part where I again chose to turn on notification sounds, and did the final reboot. Puh. STILL NO SOUND when I receive sms/txt.
I've almost pulled all my hair from my head in pure frustration, I can't walk around missing txt's because my stupid phone suddenly don't give me notifications. Try to tell that to your boss, no you see my phone don't give me audio notifications when you text me. Sure my boss wont buy into that.
Pls help.

Notification Sounds Missing?

Has anyone had notification sounds go missing from the menu? My emails stopped making a sound this morning and when I checked the sound it was set to is no longer in the options. It just had a number set rather than whatever the sound was.

[MIUI 13.0.8] Mute notifications, allow calls

Heya,
so, as the title says, I'm having issues muting the notification and app sounds, while still allowing phone calls to get through and ring the phone out loud.
In the past, this was achievable by the Do Not Disturb mode. Right now however, it doesn't mute notifications anymore, as that is now done by the new "silent" mode. But that one also mutes incoming calls, which is completely unusable for me (I have occasional on-call nights when I need to be available on my phone, even if I'm sleeping, yet find the constant pinging of the apps super annoying).
The only working solution I found was to go into notification settings and block notifications from most of the very frequent apps... Which is annoying, as I also have to not forget to toggle the notifications back the next day.
Is there still a way to achieve the "Mute media and notifications, keep calls" combo in Android 12 + MIUI 13? Thanks!
On most phones the phone ringtone and notification volume is separate, is that not the case in your device?

Unfortunately not, instead, I have media, calls and alarm clock (as seen in the screen).
If I mute media, I still get notification and call sounds. If I mute the bell, I no longer get either. Dnd has no effect on the notification sounds.

This certainly sucks, can't every smartphone company share good things from each other instead of adopting all the bad changes. look around on Google maybe there are apps for this.

Hey have you found any solution? As I'm also struggling with same problem
It sucks, but until they fix it, you can use this app.
On the downside, it not only mutes sound, but completely mutes the notification including the badges , though. Anyone please post if you have a better solution.
i know im late. but i found a fix. (kinda) if you remove your notification sound completely. through settings, notifications and vobrations, notification sound and then while in the themes app. ringtone, and then no romg tone. even tho i thaught it changed the ringtone. if you go through settings first. ot will change the notification sound and not the ringtone. hope this helped
While waiting patiently for A13 ROMs for my current daily driver to mature a bit more I am using a silent audio file for the notification sound. I can't believe all these years MIUI still doesn't have an option to unlink calls and notification volume.
