Guys I have an issue that I don't believe is rom related but I'm not sure (I'm on the collective's cp3) or it might be be a random act of insanity from my phone.

My phone has started changing the default ringtone and notification sound on its own 1-2 times a day randomly. This just started about 4 days ago and I've been on cp3 since the 2nd (this leads me to believe it's the phone not the Rom). It always picks the same sound for each. I have tried a couple different methods for my own tones. I have loaded my tones into the system / media folder and I have also used tone picker, but the phone reacts the same either way. I did a full wipe re-flash to see if that would fix it which did not.

Edit:
The phone always chooses scarabaeus for the ringer, usually after messing with the volume levels.

Has anyone experienced this issue and / or have any suggestions.

Thanks

2nd edit: just wanted to post in case someone else experienced this..... I think the issue is the app volume ace, when changing profiles it reset the ringer, but messing with the volume levels through settings had no effect on ringer. I uninstalled and hopefully this will fix it.

I Know its been along time but I am having this same exact problem with my Galaxy S5. Did you ever get it solved by uninstalling Volume Ace? I use the Volume Ace as well so I think its the culprit as well. Let me know couse I love the app and don't want to uninstall if its not the problem.

In my case it was definitely the app. I've never gone back to it due to the issues I had.
