title says it all. the phone is on sound profile: vibrate then it randomly vibrates then the sound profile becomes sound. i dont even touch it it just vibrates for half a sec and its changes the profile
idk what to do
Please tell us some more information about your phone. For example:
Which touchwiz or custom software are you running?
What network provider are you on?
Are you rooted?
Have you dropped the phone recently?
How long has this been going on?

It could be an app. I recommend you delete a few apps, test, and repeat and then report back to see which app. If you have some questionable apps, list just the names here and maybe I could point out a few that could be the issue.

Hi all
I acquired my Gnexus about a month ago, and the nexus has lived up to its name, being the predecessor of my nexus s. However, a few weeks ago a very strange bug has began manifesting itself. Whenever my phone was not in silent mode, a ringtone would keep playing, over and over again, while there were no incoming notifications. In fact the offending ringtone in question isn't even set to anything in my system sounds! This is particularly strange because even when I used TiBU to freeze just about any sound-making app that could have been causing this (alarm apps, music apps etc) the strange sound continues.
Here is a video of what I am talking about. You may need to crank up volume a little bit to hear it, but it's definitely there, and recurring incessantly. I showed my notification bar and running apps, as I have no idea what could be causing it. I'm running stock JRO0C rooted, with unlocked bootloader. This did not happen before my bootloader was unlocked, and even after that I did not recall it happening for a long time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7r-Deeu6ME&feature=youtube_gdata_player
The strange thing is, even after a full wipe/factory reset via cwm and flashing over another rom (bigxie's stock, rooted JRO0C with busybox preinstalled), the problem persisted, on my brand new rom with no apps installed! I really have no idea what's going on, is this going on at system level? I did try formatting /system in cwm but that made it unable to boot past the google logo, strangely, so I had to revert to an old cwm backup.
If anyone could enlighten me on any solutions or reasons causing this, I'd be mightly grateful. The sound, and most of all not knowing the reason behind it and how I could possibly absolve it, has been driving me nuts, it really is such a strange and inexplicable problem, not knowing why is so confounding, even with all your knowledge and experience of android!

Stock kernel? I recall this being an issue with the CM7 build for the Fascinate, and was due to a kernel bug. Outside of that, I couldn't tell you where to begin.

Yep, stock just about everything, only rooted. I used the nexus toolkit to install though, and I'm not sure if that actually flashes an insecure boot.img or not, so might that be the problem?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I don't think the insecure about image would cause a phantom ringtone or others would have reported by now. Sounds like something is misfiring. I'd seek greater knowledge of how to identify the issue (given that you have root access) from one of the much more experienced folks on XDA.

What's that? Only game I have is mass effect infiltrator (thank you 25c sale) lol. I'm pretty sure it's a ringtone sound but I can't for the life of me identify it since I don't use it for any of my volume ringtones!
I might have to relock my bootloader again when I have the time to backup everything on internal memory, because this wasn't present when my bl was locked on purchase.

Haha,I stayed just shy of saying that in order not to tick off the more superstitious types here it's not the seventh month though! (Where I'm from, supposedly 7th month is "hungry ghosts month")
The sound is bloody annoying though.

Isn't that the battery low notification? Perhaps check your battery and any app and setting that could affect the sounds. Setcpu, system settings, pull battery. That is all I can think of.

Oh and try turning NFC off. And try another battery if possible. Battery chip could be borked and telling system low on battery.
...
It's your NFC chip alert (as if it's trying to communicate with another NFC device). Mine does the same thing if I put my phone on my wallet.
Yep sounds like NFC, coupled with the fact that you randomly have your phone sitting on a wallet?.... Either a jolly good trolling, or you have a solution. Post a video of your phone doing that without a wallet touching it and/or NFC turned off in settings.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Yeah, next time I'll listen to the embedded file in the OP. Definitely your NFC trying to read something with an NFC tag in your wallet. Happened to me when my military ID got too close while screen was unlocked.

Hi, guys. I have bought device some days ago and unfortunately I have discovered sleep of death in my Note2. Device bought from Arabia. First it was stock ROM, i discovered SOD in this firmware, I changed it and installed Android Revolution HD 4.0 with Perseus kernel. But SOD still exist. I do not know what to do more. May be anybody had such a problem and could fix it? Please, share info with me and thanks a lot for advance
it goes off once or twice a day, I must push Power button for 10 second or take away battery/put back and power to turn on device
hardware?

perhaps its a hardware issue. is there any way u could bring it back to the place u bought it? otherwise maybe just an extremely buggy ROM. im just guessing anyways. hope its resolved soon. cause it is a mint device. im got myself one too and im absolutely loving it
unfortunately no way to send it back, my buddy bought it for me, when was in KSA
Mine doesn't do this.. Had it about 2-3 weeks
I had one SOD so far. I was playing granny smith, locked the phone while the game was still on, didn't wake up. That was on my first boot. Since then no problems.
very interesting is there any way to fix this problem?
today put new official ROM, Pit, Bootloader, PDA, Modem and waiting for the result ...
But have you updated it to the latest Samsung firmware? If not then use Kies on your PC to update your Note 2 to the latest version.
Btw I've never had sod on my note 2, even when in the stock power save mode. Stock phone no root.

i have resolved SOD problem in my Note2. I installed GT-N7100XXALJ3_SER_HOME RESCUE ROM, took away external sd-card, and in wifi advanced option put check if wifi internet service is available when AP connected. That is all. No SOD
Ahh good happy for you !

Problem could also be from a bad sd card. .. now that you have removed the ext sd. ... may be it is working well?
scribbled from my note 2 (N7100)
The app ttorrent also causes sod on note 2.

Hey!
The sod that was talked about in this thread is not the same thing as the eMMC bug some have been experiencing, this bug doesn't cause a brick.
Ttorrent has a bug where it simply freezes the whole system, but it's solved with a reboot. Google shows several reports of this. Don't know whether it's fixed or not now.
Regards

I remember this from Note 1... had no idea this problem was still around - and again it seems to bother just some people, even if they all use the same rom. On Note 1 it had most likely something to do with deep sleep / frequency changes, and was "fixed" by preventing your phone from going to deep sleep mode.

Hi guys. I have same problem. A few days ago I've decided to install custom rom with 4.3. First problem was when I tried to install ROM. CWM couldn't mount my internal sd. I solved this problem, but now I have SOD. I tried many manuals to fix it( battery calibration, turn of WIFI in sleep mode, etc) I just noticed one think. When I turn OFF and then turn ON "Power Saving Mode" It happens that device may work for a couple of hours. I forgot one think. I have SOD problem every time I lock my device.
P.S. sorry for my english
Hi,
I'm having an issue with my Galaxy S3 and was wondering if anyone else has had a run in with this problem. My Galaxy S3 seems to auto answer phone calls when there is background noise. It has happened while at a restaurant, while in the car with music on, and from hearing a lawn blower outside.
I've searched and couldn't find any help or any fixes. I do not have S voice enabled at all, no motion shortcuts enabled, Home button not checked to answer phone calls, no bluetooth headset setting for auto answer, etc. I've tried factory resetting phone but that didn't fix it. I was able to get phone replaced within first 2 weeks for another one but exact same thing happened.
Anyone else ever hear about anyone experiencing this issue? It seems I can't find any thread other than one from googling about it for T-Mobile specifically.
Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thank you
I guess you have enable voice command from which you can answer and reject calls. Search in setting of ur phone.

Can you reproduce this problem yourself or is it completely random?
I'm assuming your running stock unrooted
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Go to svoice settings click on control apps and another menu should show up make sure incoming calls is Unchecked... Most likely this is the problem.. I know you said svoice isn't enabled but at least check it out.. I was having this same problem..

Yeah, I never even had the S Voice activated on the first one. When I got my replacement I immediately tried that and turned S Voice on so I could uncheck everything. It would randomly happen when there is background noise. No one else I know with the SG3 is having this issue and I've had it on two phones.
I don't have any apps installed (don't even have a gmail account on either of the phones) and it is completely stock and updated to latest firmware.
stock i747. no root. checked everything I can think of. dev options off. smart stay off. screen time out 30 seconds. multiple reboots and battery pulls. im trying to let her convince me to root it and install custom rom but in the meantime would like to know what is wrond with it. any ideas

This happens once in a while on my wife's rooted stock, more like after some months. I clear dalvik and everything sets right again.
Ask her if you could root, and that she won't notice any difference cos of that. Loading custom ROMs might not go well though (practical experience).

I don't have enough posts to post in the thread specific to this ROM.
Anyway, I just installed version 2.1 today and get the sleep of death every time the phone goes to sleep (both the timed sleep or me manually locking). The power button has no effect. Even holding it down does not do a force restart. I initially did a dirty flash thinking that was the problem. I did a clean flash and now am still getting the problem. Using the phone seems to be fine other than this issue... which isn't a small issue I can just overlook.
An incoming phone call is the only thing that I've seen wake it up.
Any ideas? Bad download?
I've had the same issue. Also my 3G wouldn't work on that ROM and I had the JB modem installed. I just want back to ol' faithful, CM10.1 some people are having an awesome experience with that ROM but I wasn't.

Try to disable the ripple effect and see if that helps. Also check the md5 of the download to make sure it isn't a bad download; if you search the play store for md5 checker, it will make the process easier, but you could also use ES File explorer.
