two tone sound, i guess when sits there just now started happening never has occurred no app changes no change in use as in daily basis of what the phone goes through. i never heard it while do anything but i do too much anymore on my phone txt and calls and some game apps thats it though.

You will probably have to pull a logcat and look at it immediately after the beep occurs.

Is the beep a familiar notification sound? Is it your default notification sound?
Does having your phone in vibrate/silent make any difference?

Vibrate when call connects

Is there a way to get the phone to vibrate when dialed number connects.
Right now it plays a tune, so it knows its connected, however can that be tied to vibrate as well?
My old phone did this, and its great to not have to hold the phone to your ear if the connection takes a long time to get through.
if you flash the cm7 Rom it has that option. i dont think any of the others do though.
I use Go Contacts, which comes with Go Dialer , and it has that option ...
Stock dialer does this, settings, call, call alert, answer vibration

If you have root then search "vibralert" in the market.
Top app with lots of options.

thats to set up the ringtone.. i went throu there several times.
i had set up my ringtone but still when i get a call it just beep one time and then it stays on silence
That is unusual, if your phone is new maybe you should exchange it.
It very well can be a dud of a phone....
Could try a factory reset.

Phone is completely muted!

I tried to change the media folder sounds to the s3 sounds and I suspect that my permission s are not right in root explorer. Can some plz tell me what my permission need to be in order to get my audible touches ringtones and notification sounds back on? Thanks!

I have a somewhat similar situation.. After flashing the stock jb ROM, I noticed that the phone only vibrates for the incoming calls and notification, so I was wondering how you did yours maybe it would help me. Thanks.
Similar situation with one of my t989's too. I noticed after updating to Jellies Bean, one of my two doesn't "hear" anything from my end. Someone calls, I can hear them but they just keep saying Hello Hello wether I call them or they call me. So, I opened camera and recorded a test video with camcorder and talked while recording, played it back and didnt hear anything, just a liiiiiittle white noise, like static, but clearly nothing of my voice. It worked before Jellies Bean for sure but ever since, still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Messaging notification ringtone doesn't always play

My incoming mms notification ringtone doesn't always play completely. I use the whistle one but it usually sounds like more of a whimper. Once in a while it'll play the full ringtone but often it'll cut off abruptly, sometimes not even playing at all. I've missed getting messages due to this. I've tried using different ringtones all with the same outcome. They sometimes play completely, but mostly they don't or not at all. Is there any way to fix this?

Once you've reached your 200 text limit or w.e you set it at the ringtone cuts off. Try deleting your messages and it should play the whole ring for you.

If you use zedge to assign sounds you will not experience the "cutoff" issue.

This didn't work for me. But the cleaning out message thread did (for now).

[Q] Inaudible screen lock sounds

Anyone else can't hear the screen lock/unlock sounds? In settings, they're set for ON. But can't hear them.

Mine are off. I had them on but they are useless because you have to put the phone right up to your ear to be able to hear them, even with the volume up all the way. Kind of stupid if you ask me.
I thought it was maybe a defect of my phone but I tried 2 of my friends Ones and theirs are the same way.
Thanks. Hopefully will be fixed in next OTA.
