Hi,

I'm facing the exact same problem. I'm not sure if this is an App, Operating ar a regional issue.

Maybe we can compare notes here, installed apps, operating system version ext.

Hi Everyone...

I have got Galaxy Note 2 (GT-N7100) running on Android 4.1.2 (Recently Updated)
But the problem i am listing here was there even before the update (4.1.1) .

The problem i am facing is (as you can see in the screen shot attached) Under the main Sound Control Menu (Sound Settings) the Notification tab or menu gets disabled automatically and i am not able to bring it back On unless i restart my phone. I have tried Factory Reset, Checking the settings under almost all the applications such as FB, Email, Messaging, WhatsApp etc.to verify if all have the notification sounds set to active. Due to this problem, i do not get any notifications sounds on my phone and that is really annoying.

After not finding the solution anywhere, i am posting this here in great hope for a positive feedback on my problem.

Looking forward to hear something about it... thanks for reading..

Hello,

I am facing this issue also since sometime, I have tried to uninstall some of the apps which I suspected to cause the issue (apps that not well known and not everyone have, or if it is well known, everyone would had faced the issue) but I reached nothing, tried to change the notification sound, tried to change a lot of phone settings, until I reached a symptom that I don't know if it only happens with me or the others who are facing the issue also have, this issue happens normally after I receive a phone call and I answer it, once this happened, the notification sound goes to mute and I can't un-mute it until I restart my phone.
People who are facing the same issue, please confirm.

Did you try unchecking Call Alert in your Call settings?

[mehegazy]

I have tried this, but still, whenever I get a phone call, the notification sound goes muted and it never came back after the call until I restart the phone
I am using the original ROM v 4.1.2, I only rooted it, What's the ROM that you're using?

[mehegazy]

I have just flashed the ROM with the stock rom, still have the same issue, Fully reset the phone (without registering my email address) problem gone, I am currently re-installing all my apps again, and I am testing the issue after each app installation (maybe the issue is related to one of the apps), I will let you know the results in all cases.

everything is working fine now, I have called my phone after every single app I install, and after every single app I do the setup for, and everything is fine so far, I guess it maybe only ROM installation issue, will keep testing for a few days and will update here if something happen.
