I can't put my finger on wherethis ringtone is coming from. I looked through sound settings, and nothing was there. I even checked a few app notifications. It doesn't beep because the battery is low. I have almost 80% of battery life rn.

If I can help describe it:

It goes ring-ring (very short) then a voice comes up. I can't understand but they say something like la-la-la-la, (in that configuration) then it plays a little jingle, and it makes that noise like shutting down Win 98 (if you remember that) But it never shuts down.

Can you guys help me? because I'm getting annoyed of it. I want to turn it off somehow. :huh:

Edit: Oh, running Android 10. Phone brand on left.

I'm assuming that this is the NUU X6 Plus? Custom ROM?

Have you done anything special with it recently?

And I assume that it seems to go off at random intervals? There isn't anything specific that happens to cause it?

Is it a dual SIM phone? Have you checked the sounds for both SIM card slots?

Nuu X6 Plus, yes. Default ROM that came with system.

No, I haven't. I think the last thing I loaded was a game on here. It is not loaded right now, so it wouldn't be the issue.

It goes off about every 10 minutes, maybe? I don't keep tract of it. I don't get any notifications. It just gives a quick beep when i get a text or message from messenger.

No, it's not dual SIM. So it wouldn't be any difference with one of em.

You mention that there is a voice as part of the notification sound...could it be something to do with the accessibility sound options?

I see nothing in there, sorry..

Swipe up from bottom on the home screen and hold, that will display all the apps that are running. Look for an app you don't recognize and may be causing it.

In addition there may be hidden background apps that you can see from the swipe down notification shade (this was moved into the running apps manager in later Android versions).

How to access it:

Although it shows Android 13, it is the same on Android 10.

Sadly, I don't see that in Android 10.. Could be a different version, too..

Did the game install a virus?

Couldn't have. I know 100s of ppl who play it, and they never had a problem with it.

Did you manage to figure it out? I'm intrigued. :laugh:

Sadly, no. I thought it was in the clock or alarm. But that didn't help any..

Enter developer mode (About android and 7 taps on build) then go into the developer section and take a look at running services.

I actually forgot about that. BUT looking at the running services, nothing seems out of order.. :huh: 

Should I do a factory reset or something? Have a few games on there, but I barely ever play them..

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
