Notification sound/Vibration every few seconds - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, I'm just hoping for a quick answer, but this has been driving me nuts. Whenever the screen is on, whether i'm using the phone or not, every few seconds my phone goes off. No apparent notications to check. I've tried disabling 3rd party apps, everything from facebook to games to checking my email clients. It's driving me bonkers. It doesn't matter if it's on vibrate, it still goes off. The only peace I get is if I put it in silent, and then I might miss notifcations, which would be terrible.
So any recomendations?
I'm running 23.4.A.1.264 With a cricket sim installed model D5803

Did You stick some NFC sticker on the back of Your phone?? I did it once and 2 days I was fighting with unknown sound until I realized it was NFC closeup sound.

How to stop the screen lighting up.

Hi all, just got myself a LG GWatch R, and loving it so far...
Just a couple of questions...
1: The screen keeps lighting up when i move my arm?, this is causing extra battery drain and i dont want this to happen, ive already set the screen to always on in ambient mode so wht does it keep turning on to full?
2: It keeps saying google now is not available even though its connected? Annoying.
3: The same cards keep appearing even though i have swiped them away. Why?
hi,

Have you run all updates? Yes a reset may be in order.

1) You can no do that. Just mute notification by swipe down watch status bar, it mute notification and disable the lightin up movement.
2) It need BT connected watch/phone AND valid internet connection on phone.
3) card appear when phone send notification. If card appearing after swipe, it is your phone wich notify again.
1: STUPID, I dont want to turn my buzzer of to stop the screen lighting up.
2: All is connected but the watch does it constantly.
3: Cards dont appear on phone just constantly on the watch?

which particular card is annoying you? i do find the light up mechanism is annoying as if i turn my wrist to do something and the screen just light up.
i wish google or LG is able to come up a new features to stop the auto light up function by movement. on pebble, you can disable such function...why google cannot..
Well I tried emailing them about it. But after sitting there for half an hour entering crap just to send an email I gave up.
I'm on holiday this week. And I keep getting a card saying holiday all day. But this keeps popping up about 20 times a day. Doesn't appear on the phone just the watch.
According to the screenshots in this article covering the upcoming Android Wear 5.0 Lollipop, we will be able to disable the wake gesture!
have a close look at the screenshots of the AW phone app, there is an option "Tilt to wake screen"
the holiday is mark in your google calendar? if you didnt connect the phone with watch..did it happen?
No its coming from the phone. But I don't understand why it appears all the time instead of once
I would also like it too not light up every time I move! I have turned off all gestures and tilt to wake but it still lights up. Just want to tell the time not let everyone know im wearing a smartwatch.

Notification sound cut off, now screen won't turn on

Since updating to marshmallow, my longer notification sounds, especially Calendar Snooze, are cut off.
I read somewhere about an app setting to allow it to turn the screen on as a fix. I did that but now I can't remember what app I made the change in or where I read that suggestion. I thought it might have been Light Flow, but I can't find it in there.
Now my power button fails to wake up the screen the majority of the time. Sometimes the lock screen will flash for a fraction of a second and go black again. Usually it takes 6-10 tries before the screen finally stays on so I can use my phone.
Since the wake up problem started when I tried to fix the notification sound, I'm pretty sure they're related. Any ideas?

if youre using lightflow id suggest wiping the data in it and resetting your notification settings. it does tend to override the system so i can see that screwing with the duration of the notification, and starting fresh usually solves most problems
i have mine set to wake the screen for SMS but not MMS. it creates similar problems with the screen
Thanks for the info. I tried just toggling the screen on settings on and back off for all of the Light Flow apps, and it seems to have fixed my screen turn on problem, at least for now.

I'm having the same notification sound cut short problem, I have a nexus 7 wifi 2013 model running Mohamed rom v2.1
Whenever anyone calls me on google hangouts, the ring only lasts for a second before its cut off, this doesn't happen if the front cover is open, it happens only when its closed.
I didn't have this problem on kitkat, but on MM this problem started from day 1.
I don't see any light flow option anywhere.
Any suggestions to fix this will be very appreciated.
Thanks.

LightFlow fixed my screen problems, but it was just a coincidence that I installed Marshmallow and my sounds got cut off around the same time. I'm still looking for a solution to that issue. Similar to you, if my screen is on, the notification sounds work correctly. If the screen is off, they get cut off.

[Q] unlocking without fingerprint?

Somehow my phone unlocks itself in my pocket without my finger print. I have all those recognized devices setting disabled.
It's done it 3 times or so now. Today it just set up like 6 new home screens, turned on NFC, and it always calls or texts my little sister, never anyone else. The phone was just in my pocket while I was sitting here using the computer, I hadn't touched it physically in an hour.
I have the lock screen setup using fingerprint or passcode. Fingerprint scanner seems to work fine otherwise.
Stock rooted MM, not even debloated.
Any ideas? I'd get rid of it but there really isn't anything out I am interested in currently.
Do you have any trusted devices associated with it? Sounds like that may be the problem, or nfc tags if you have any
Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk
I have my house as a trusted zone, but it is not enabled in the settings. I disabled it due to it not being very trustworthy. I keep BT and NFC turned off all the time as I don't use them.. There shouldn't be any way for this phone to unlock in my pocket, as far as i can tell.
I'm wondering if it's a 6.0 upgrade glitch, I've noticed a few oddities, such as the "safe volume" resetting itself after days of use, randomly. It should only ask you if you're sure after restarting the phone, but sometimes it will just kick in, lower the volume below the threshold, and the warning box will come back up. I listen to my phone ~8 hrs a day at work.

Notifications turn on screen

I have been searching looking for way to make this work with no solution.
I have disabled AOD since it is consuming battery heavily and wanted notifications to behave as on stock android where they turn screen on. My note 8 is receiving notifications and LED turns on, but screen doesn't. I have to manually turn it on to be able to see the lockscreen notification.
Is there any way to make this work?

Facing same issue.
Having the same problem. Aod does not work anymore.

I use "Dynamic Notifications". It lights up notifications when screen is locked. There's a certain amount of customisation, including screen on time. Used it on many of my phones including Note 8.
Wait.. You want the screen to turn on for every notification?
I hate that... Some apps even ignore the settings either way.

Same here, that would drive me nuts if the screen turned on for every notification. It's bad enough the screen turns on everytime the phone is plugged in/unplugged from USB or from a wireless charger.
Shouren, you can try snoozy charger app to manage the plug/unplug screen on issue

Thanks. The rom I'm using is actually supposed to have that disabled but I don't think it works for wireless charging, only cable. I never never charge with the cable anymore. But whatever, I prefer not to install apps just to disable one minor thing.
I understand you, I also prefer wireless, but, it works with wireless too
There must be a build prop tweak or something but I can't seem to find one right now.
Maybe a PM to a nice dev and they could tell you where to look. Report for community if you figure it out

Galaxy s10 screen wakes / turns on on its own... annoying bug

I've searched far and wide and can't find a solution for this issue.
Here is what happens: for no reason that I can see (no new notifications), my screen turns on its own. My phone is just there on the table when this happens and I haven't touched it.
This happens whether the phone is plugged in or not. It happens in the middle of the night and wakes me up.
Things I came tried:
- turn on do not disturb and remove all exceptions.
- disable always on display.
- disabled all lock screen notifications.
- disabled a notifications.
Other things I've tried:
Lift to wake and all other things that could wake the screen.
Did a factory data reset and re setup my phone from scratch.
Nothing works. Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance.
I had the very same problem until a few days ago when this behaviour suddenly stopped. What changed? I had shutdown my Pebble watch and connected a Wear OS watch to my phone.
I don't know what the Pebble did, but it looks like it woke up my phone at random intervals.
Maybe it a bluetooth device you've connected?
I'm expeciencing sometimes this behaviour when listening to the music on bike with phone in pocked on back. I disabled all "smart" funcions like smart lock, pocket detecting, wearing detection etc and it stopped.
I think it is caused by new type of proximity sensor used in whole S10 line (so I think it is hw related). I read somewhere than it detects skin proximity even thru several layers of cloting.
It is behaving strange even during phone calls - when put phone down from my ear, it tooks several seconds until screen lights on.
it's one of the things that bothers me a lot about otherwise great phone.
facing same issue
I always loved Samsung galaxy s10. I bought it from my friend who used it for 10 months. I am facing the same issue first I thought it is because he used it for 10 months and some bug appeared but now I came to know its not just me. if anyone knows how to fix it then please post a reply. I really need to fix this
I haven't noticed that on my S10. It sounds like something is triggering it, but what. Do all of you use Bixby because I don't.
