So something very weird just happened to my phone: the Xperia ringtone suddenly started playing on its own, and would not stop.
Restarting the phone had no effect, and no apps were running.
Eventually I reset the app permissions and that seemed to work.
Anybody else experiencing this issue?
Edit: as I'm typing this, the ringtone started playing again.

and now my phone just randomly restarted itself...
is it possessed???
OK, so I've traced the culprit app to Tapatalk.
But even choosing no ringtone for the notifications STILL results in the ringtone playing on a loop.
Is there anything I can do to stop this, I really don't want to uninstall the app.

Sounds like there's a problem with the Tapatalk. Uninstall/reinstall might be helpful

After flashing Overcome v2 RC1, the Calendar app won't start. It just continually force closes.
I've only see one person complain about it in the GB Issues thread in General. Is it happening to you?
I'very found that if you go through the settings, making sure a notification sound is selected and so on, it will stop force closing..
Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply. Where exactly can I find this notification sound?
The only one I know of, is under Sound - Notification Ringtone which is already selected.
Hi All,
I have a RAZR I and I love it - except....
(nearly) Everytime I unlock the phone, I get a weird thunder clap type sound, i thought it was from a weather app, but i have closed them all, no widgets, nothing, but still I get this noise....
Any ideas as to which app is doing this?
Driving me crazy
Parameter -> sound -> disable "sound when unlock phone"
That's all

Thanks for the advice,
but tried that and nope it still does the same noise. As I said before, Not every time I unlock the phone, but on occasion.
I'm now going thru the process of uninstalling each "likely" culprit one by one to see if this sheds any light on the problem!
Bizarre.. What's your launcher?
Sent from my XT890 using xda premium
Thats what I thought
using Nova at the moment.... can't see anything in the settings on there to explain it?
So the problem come from Nova launcher!
There's something you don't see in the setting I think.
Hi all, I got the official Hangouts 2.0 (not sideloaded). SMS works fine, I just don't get any notifications - even though I turned notifications on, anybody else having this issue?

Thanx! Did you have to change anything other than ticking the option to receive SMS? Which SMS app were you using till now?

I'm having the same issue with not getting notifications. Haven't found a reason for this yet or how to fix it.

Works fine for me. Don't forget to go to the app info in settings and make sure the "show notifications" checkbox is checked. Then don't forget to go to the settings within the Hangouts app --> SMS --> check notifications. If all else fails, uninstall updates and reinstall from Play store. Good luck!

Perhaps the texts from Sprint's network aren't playing nice with Hangouts? Stearic, can you verify if you're on sprint or not? I know Sprint's sms system is slightly different than most other carriers. If this is a Sprint issue, then there really isn't much you can do...

I'm on verizon. Txt's from both other vzw users and from google sms. Where are both these "show notifications" options at? You mean both for the email section and sms section in hangouts? Those are both set for me and i still don't get any.
I had this problem when I first installed it. Couldn't figure out for the life of me why I wasn't getting any notifications. I had go sms installed at the time and even disabled notifications from that. Still no dice. Finally I uninstalled go SMS completely and it finally started working properly. My advice if you have any other messaging app uninstall it even if you don't use it.

I thought about that, I guess I'll try that and update
Update: It worked!!! Thanx
Kinda sucky that you have to do that, but at least now I get a chance to test Hangouts...
The one thing I'm definitely gonna miss from Handcent is the popup notifications...

Handcent Fix
I'm using Handcent and had the same issue. I fixed it by disabling Default SMS in Handcent. What I miss is the number of messages notification on the app icon and the notification bar.

Is anyone else experiencing the problem where opening Gmail via an active display notification results can a blank screen apart from the system ui and the toolbar? I'll get a screenshot next time it happens.

I've not had that issue with gmail, but i seem to remember opening chrome more than once to that same screen. This was launched from the home screen, not through active display though.
I think it's just an app not responding. Kill it and restart.
It's still responding. I can use the toolbar to go to my inbox and I can open the email there with no problems.

Over the last 3 days apps, specifically Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Samsung Internet and YouTube, won't function properly. They come up with pop-ups asking for a restart but they never do. An uninstall/reinstall from the Play store fixes the problem only to come back after some time. What's going on?

I noticed the same thing with YouTube. I thought it had to do with substratum theme. A complete reinstall fixed my issue as well.
Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk
This is for me a common Substratum Issue / Behavior, I've noticed this also under some LineageOS Devices.
As mentioned before a complete reinstall of the Substratum-Theme solves this in 99%, the other 1% is mostly solved by updating the Theme if an update is available.

I tried uninstalling my substratum theme but the problem persisted. It is mostly Facebook that's buggy now. I also forgot to mention YouTube but it's working at the moment. I'd really hate to have to hard reset coz I've gotten the phone to a point where I am really comfortable with it already.

I'm experiencing the same issue with WhatsApp. I've reinstalled the WhatsApp overlay, uninstalled the overlay and even completely reinstalled WhatsApp. It still crashes and asks me to 'restart WhatsApp'. The funny thing is that I'm still able to answer voice and video calls and I'm able to reply when a new notification pop ups. When I try to open the app it force closes itself.
