It would be great if you can give us more info on your phone. For example. What is the software or ROM are you currently using? Is it rooted? That just a start. More info the better.

Completely stock currently not even rooted and it happens to me. It is inconsistent as well. Facebook may even set it off. For some reason in or out of the car dock will do it almost every time.

Are you on the most up to date software. Have you updated it at all?

This has been happening to me for a while on my NS4G (On Sprint) too. Entirely stock, latest JB OTA still reproduces. It's awfully annoying. Sad to hear it happens on other phones too.

I am on the most current update. This started with the most current update.
On a second note I have now realized that if I am listening to my music on the phone over bluetooth and I receive a text message it will pause the song, play the notification, then start a completely different song from the beginning. I may have to go full wipe and see what happens.

If a full wipe fails too, you might have to try rooting and flashing a custom ROM and see if that fixes the issue. Or you can see if ATT can replace it for you.

Incomplete notifications and random apps booting

For the last couple of days I've noticed my notifications have been short (not playing completely). Today my music list just popped up and started playing random music. I have never even used the music player on this phone. It's been acting so strange lately. Anyone else having theses sort of problems?? I did a factory reset which corrected the problem for now. Got my fingers crossed that it won't happen again....

Text message limit is being hit and deleting messages and playing tone at same time which is causing it to cut the tone short. Annoying, I know.

(Solved) My music Player skips....does yours?

Does anyone have the same problem that i have; when I'm listening to a music player, it skips and just goes to a new song sometimes. I'm not sure if it's because of the "control apps with voice" feature and it's getting confused or what. I turned off the voice command of apps to make sure but it did it that way also.
I also had what sounded like two tracks going at once....not sure.
I was mowing and it was happening and also driving in the car with the window down it was doing it.
Before i close my answer, are you on stock or a custom rom?

I'm stock but rooted. It also happened before rooting.
It sounds like a hardware problem if you had this problem before rooting. Are you able to service the phone?

I don't know what you mean service...you mean like crack the case and start trying to fix things? No way.
I never had it prior to rooting or flashing
a custom Rom but afterwards. I found it to be because I want "safely" ejecting my device from my computer. It was my files becoming corrupt from that had no problems after using eject hardware safely

Like take the phone to your phone provider.

I think I found the answer; the S voice feature called "control apps".
I turned it off (for music) and had no problems....I turned it back on and when there were loud noises, or loud talking....that's when funny things would happen.

Did it do this out of the box? I had to send my initial SIII back due to a number of sound problems. Does the phone exhibit any other anomalies?

No, nothing else it plays all other sounds great, the problem is only when i get a call. and sometimes i works...like once ever 20 calls...
Did you make a nandroid backup after you installed a custom recovery, if you did you could test things from earlier. I'd look in an earlier backup for the problem as part of the process of elimination, as well as data wipe/reset. Is it possible it is your network? Use another phone and call your phone, can you reproduce the event? Does it put you to vm? Does it keep ringing? Do you have a 3rd party app that could be tied to it? How about Google voice?

Yes I have a backup. I have yet to do a factory wipe I was hoping to avoid it but I will do one to see if that fixes it. I don't have any app that I think interacts with my ringing other than zedge and trays just for ringtones. I can replicate the error every time from any network that calls. What would Google voice do for me?
The best advice I can give you is to start fresh and add things one by one testing each time for the problem you experience. When and if you find the culprit you can go from there.

Browser bug that's been present on every ICS build!

Ok I've never had any real problem with ICS but this one bug drives me crazy and I never see anyone mention it here. Whenever I'm listening to music and try to browse the Web it just constantly keeps scrolling up. This happens every time the speaker is in use. If I use a wired headset or my my stereo bluetooth set to listen to music it does not do this. It even happens if you get a text message and your notification plays so it's definitely related to the speaker. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets this so why is it never brought up? Maybe a fix from one of our wonderful devs?? I've been avoiding dl'in a third party browser but I guess maybe it's time

I would think most people don't report it because they don't use the stock browser. I have never even opened the stock browser since I got this phone the day it came out.

Lol guess I'm alone on this. Thinking about trying chrome and see if it works. I just hate having two browsers. That's why I got rid of Dolphin.. And I was bored of it too! The reason I use the stock is cuz I like that inverted rendering option to save battery.

When I do use chrome I use the themed version rujelus has in his rom updater.

I was curious so I tried this on FI03 and can't duplicate it. I tried with poweramp and the built in music player. What are the exact steps you take to get that to happen? I want to see if I can reproduce it.

It's been a problem for me in every ICS builds since I've had this phone. I don't take no steps I just have any music app whether it's the built in music player or Pandora playing and if I try to use the browser it's a p.i.t.a because it'll just keep scrolling up unless I stop my music. Even if I'm not listening to music and a text comes in the sound makes it scroll up. Something about my speaker and browser are not playing nicely with each other. It's plain weird. I'm using chrome at the moment and the issue is gone with it. So far I hate it tho. Can't even set a home page wth lol

Try ICS Browser+, works great and and should be good for you if you're used to stock.

Strange problem with Note 2

My wife's Note 2 completely stock is having this strange problem. Out of nowhere it'll randomly open an app in the background and start playing whatever audio that may come from that app. Like if Pandora opens up it'll start playing whatever station she was listening to last. Or navigation will just start navigating out of nowhere. Very strange. Was wondering if anyone has had this problem or if my wife's phone just thinks it's traveling and wants some good music to listen to. Lol
Thanks

Do a factory reset.
Yep....
Sounds like the phone needs a cleaning. ..g
Alrighty then. I'll do a factory reset and see if that helps. Thanks for your help!
