AT&T Note 3 ringtone rings at random times - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

All
Have stock AT&T Note 3 and the ringtone will start ringing at random times. No matter how many apps or background processes I try to shut down it still continues to ring. Also, I have tried different ringtone but the issue still occurs. Not sure what is causing this. Anyone else experience this?
Only thing I can do is turn the ringtone value all the way down to off or vibrate (it does not vibrate like a normal incomomg call) or reboot the Note 3.

Okay hope this helps others. Using 'Notification History' App I was able to see that the 'Network Monitoring' App-Widget has a setting for a notification of lost signal. I had it checked and set to the default ringtone. By changing it to not notify me it cleared the seemingly random ringtone.

Captivate only vibrates when receiving an SMS!!

It will not make a sound whatsoever! Everything I try, it only vibrates. I do not have a single option for vibration enabled! I've tried changing various settings through the Settings/Sound and Display submenu, and I've even went into the SMS/MMS application and see nothing in there that is set to vibrate. I've tried my phone in Silent, and it's Silent. I've tried it in Vibrate, and it's Silent. Yet, when I up the volume to max, it vibrates. Anything between Vibrate and Max Volume, the phone vibrates. Anybody have any ideas?
Have you checked to see if theres a notification/text ringtone enabled? It's possible to set the ringtone to "Silent," while having all of your volumes turned up.
If that doesn't work also try a factory reset
from the initial messaging screen click the menu button, settings, scroll to the bottom, there is a notifications settings section, make sure you've got a ringtone selected in there & if you dont want the vibrate in addition, uncheck vibrate.
The ringtone is set to tweeters and the vibrate option is not ticked.

this is a bug I have had the same problem. I think it's when you get a text while your talking on your phone, but i'm not sure 100% But if you shut your phone off and turn it back on it will fix itself until it wants to do it again
The same thing as happening to me I shut it off and on several times and it still doesn't work help plz i have also uninstalled the music player and replaced it with another android music player maybe that's the problem?

Phone not notifying for texts

Hey guys. I have a problem: for some reason, my phone has stopped notifying me of texts. It neither vibrates nor chimes, regardless of whether it's on silent or not.
I went to my settings to see what's up, and vibrate is set to "always," and my notification tone is on don't Panic. Now here's the funny thing: you know how selecting the chime will preview it? It's not doing that at all, for any of them. Any ideas?
P.s. my volume's cranked, so it's not that.

Check your speaker?Play a song,or a video with sound and see if you hear anything?Is it just text or calls too?Try to change the calls ringtone and see what happens.

I'm actually listening to music right now. And, my phone ringtone works fine and vibrates when I get a call.

Sms app then make sure notifications is enabled. There might be a phone setting somewhere as well

Funny, I have the opposite problem. I receive text notifications, but my phone fails to ring a good portion of the time.

Yeah, notifications are enabled in SMS app.

I will have the ringer all the way up and then pick my phone up after about an hour and it will be in silent mode and ill have 2 missed calls and 7 text messages
It's really frustrating
I'm on stock ICS, and rooted.

Issues in vibracall

Hello guys!
have a razr that stopped vibratin.
vibrating sometimes yes and sometimes no.
Anyone have any suggestions?
thanks
In assuming that your notification settings in calls, messages, email etc. are all set to vibrate when notified, is it hit-and-miss that your phone vibrates with the speaker on or is it just when you are using it in one of the silent modes?
I only ask because when I first got my RAZR it took me a while to figure out that in the silent modes it will only vibrate when it is actually set to “Vibrate” mode itself and not when in “Mute”, so it’s just a thought that you are not sometimes setting it inadvertently to “Mute” by mistake.
As an aside I use an app called “Vibration Notifier” from the Play Store. Essentially if you miss a message, email, call etc. you can set it to vibrate a pre-determined number of times to alert you to missed notifications. So for example, you can set it to vibrate every minute (or any other number of minutes you specify) up to a specified number of times until you turn the screen on. You can also set the length of the vibration which I find a Godsend as I find the RAZR’s default vibration pretty weedy, and you can also customise it to notify you of any other apps you may have which have a notification feature.
Thanks for help, but my phone is in vibration status... Sometimes vibration work and a feel time before, dont work more

Weird vibration?

I've noticed that my texts I get 2 short vibrates however for other notifications like Facebook, I get a long vibrate. Shouldn't it be the other way around? You can never even feel a text vibrate go off... I know on my note 2 and s3 it wasn't like this.
Also, even though I have vibrate turned off in most apps when they show a notification they still vibrate. What's with that? I had the same problem with the s4 when I first got it.

I've gotten the 2 short vibrates on texts for the S3, S4, and now Note 3. However, I am not sure about Facebook as I do not use that app. If you go to Settings > Device > Sound, you can change the vibration intensity for calls, notifications, and haptic feedback.

Thanks but it's not the intensity that I'm talking about. The vibration pattern just seems backwards or weird to me coming from the note 2. Basically every app gives a long vibrate except for texts which is kinda backwards.

Am I the only one who is having this issue? I don't think it's normal to receive a vibration every time I get a notification even if I have it turned off in the app settings.

Do you have your phone muted, but with vibration enabled? I've seen unexpected vibrations on my phone in that case - I think it may just replace any noise with vibration.
