Although I have a Samsung Galaxy 23 running Android 14 my extensive research on the web has highlighted the fact that this seems to be an ANDROID or SAMSUNG problem which affects many different phones and which does not yet seem to be resolved. It is driving me INSANE!!!!!

Also, before anyone gives me any alleged solution previously given please read the following.

The issue is that at random times throughout the day and night my phone emits one single very loud monotone beep which is approximately 1-2 seconds in duration. 

When I look in the notification area , there is no new notification. 

There are no unread existing notifications in the notification area. 

Notification reminder is not enabled on my phone. 

Emergency Wireless Alerts are not enabled on my phone. 

The ghost notification beep is emitted in the countryside when out walking as well as in the streets and at home so it cannot be the NFC.

The tone (Sound) does not appear to exist on my phone either in the system notification sounds folder or in my own sounds folder.

I have scrolled through EVERY SINGLE app on my phone and deleted the app cache

Only in the last hour I have immediately deleted any notifications that arrived on my phone to ensure the notification area on my phone was empty for when this annoying beep occurred again, as it did, and I immediately checked the notification area and there was nothing there, nor was there anything in the Notification History.

I have switched my phone off and switched it back on again.

I have been on the Zedge website, searched for SINGLE MONOTONE BEEP and listened to as many so called BEEP sounds as I can to try and identify the sound that is being emitted from my phone in the hope that it might help me identify which app on my phone, if any, is emitting the sound.  This has been unsuccessful because Zedge search does not seem to know what is meant by SINGLE nor MONOTONE nor BEEP.

I am close to smashing this very expensive but annoying piece of S*&!t into a million pieces with a heavy hammer and going over to the dark side that is Apple unless I can sort this issue.

I never know when the beep is going to sound so , even if I knew how, I could not record the sound in order to identify the name or source of the sound or post it to any website to try and identify it that way.

Having read the above, can anyone suggest anything that I have not as yet tried above?  I think the answer may lie in identifying the the annoying beep which may lead me to the offending app so can anyone suggest how I might find this unidentified sound on my phone because the folder in which it resides and is hidden may identify the offending app. 

Thanks for your patience reading this long message.
