Text message sound going off randomly

The sound of an incoming text message is constantly going off on my phone. I am not receiving new messages. I checked and it does not appear to be my other apps. Any ideas?

  • Text message sound disappears

    I have an issue.
    All the sounds work fine but sometimes I put it into silent mode because of a meeting. When I switch it out of silent mode though, the text message sound doesn't always reappear although the ring tone does.
    It doesn't always happen but the only way to resolve is to go into sounds and reselect the sound which is tri tone for me.
    I have tried all sorts of variations to try and make it happen every time but just when I think I have found the step by step procedure for replicating it, it doesn't work.
    Is this something apple are aware of? Have other people experienced it with the latest firmware?
    Is there a channel to write to apple directly to report bugs?

    Typically this is due to an OS bug and the fix is to restore the phone...
    First, you can try restoring iPhone via the "Restore from back up option" There is a chance that this is not going to work since the back up will include the "bug" you're trying to get rid of... but there is a small chance it will work.
    If not then the true way to get rid of an OS bug is to do a full restore using "Set up as new iPhone" the difference being that you need to back up outside data like contacts, calendars, notes, etc... since stuff like texts, user settings and POP3 mail inbox items are lost... it takes longer to do this but is really the only way to get rid of the OS bugs for sure...

  • Flash goes off randomly

    My iphone flash goes off randomly. Not the flash alert for texts and calls. Just randomly. It will stay on. I have to hit phone to make it go off. I read online it's probably a short in the phone. What should I do? Will apple fix it?

    Yah, I'm sure it would. I found the answer a nano second later:

  • Remove all incoming/outgoing text message sounds?

    How can I turn off all incoming/outgoing text message sounds without turning the phone ringer off?
    Thank you.

    There is no option to add additional sounds for those alerts.

    Last night my iphone screen all of a sudden was solid blue and now it is black. I tried turning it on and off.  Still nothing appeared on the screen.  I put it on the charger and this morning it is totally black.  However, when I hit the on and off button, I did hear the text message signal go off. When I turned the volume on and off a big white bell flashed.  In the last week, there were some other display problems such as the screen blowing up large. The only way to fix it was to turn off the phone and then turn it back on. 
    What does all of this mean? It seems like I've had these problems since the iphone 4 upgrade.

    just do reset, press home button and power butoon for a while untill you can see apple
    gud luck

  • Does the os4 update allow text message sound to be customized?

    I have waited all this time for the update now I would like to know if it will include the ability to customized the text message sounds? Or have new ones to choose from???????????????????

    It would be really good to have the ability to have to be able to create message sounds, similar to custom ringtones. Not much of a choice on the installed sounds, and with 5 members of staff in the office all having the same chosen sound on their phone for messages, it is annoying to look at the phone & find that it is not yours making the sound. Customisable sounds would be brill. Can this be possible in a future update, please.

  • External speakers: sound goes off

    I've using a pair of Klipsch Pro Media 2.0 for months with my Mac Pro. They are great speakers - except for one problem: sound goes off when listening to music.
    I've opened one speaker and used an air blow can to clean the knobs. Seems to have helped, but there is still a problem. When not in use, I hear a light static noise and the sound goes dead. Nada. At that point, not even the internal speaker works. I'm not sure if I need to clean the interior of the Mac as well, if it's an energy saver issue or a hardware fault.
    Hope anyone can help.

    this worked for me:

  • Sound goes off after minimize IE or Chrome

    Hello everyone, I need a little help here.
    Let's say when I open youtube on IE or Chome and when i go to Start (Metro) the video continues to play, but the sound goes off...
    Is there any settings for that? 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    It seems that the question was related to Modern IE 10 and Windows Store App.
    However, as far as I know, the behavior is by design.

    Hope this helps.

  • There is no sound on my iPhone4. Everything is working fine, and suddenly sound goes off, any recomendation will be apreciated

    There is no sound on my iPhone4. Everything is working fine, and suddenly sound goes off, any recomendation will be apreciated.
    There is no sliding volume bar (in fact it comes and goes by itself).
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Ziad2000, I have already tried to restore to factory defaults, and the problem continues, let me make a broader explanation of the problem. I acquired my phone almost a year ago, and everything was working just fine, I bought an iPhone dock station and after a few uses of it, the problem started. I do not know if everything is related to this item.

  • The sound goes off and on while typing on keyboard

    The sound goes off and on while typing on keyboard

    I would try to power cycle the device by holding the sleep/wake button till is says turn off. Maybe even reset by holding the sleep/wake and the home button at the same time. by chance if none of that works back up your device and restore it. Sounds like a software issue so that should fix it. You could always contact apple support aswell.

  • Sound goes off and on when I talk on phone

    When I am talking on my iPhone 4, the person on the other end also using an iPhone cannot always hear me because the sound goes off and on.  I can hear them just fine, but they cannot hear me for the most part.
