Weird Ring Tone


Recommended Posts

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..

    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
