I know it's late, but for anyone else experiencing this I believe I found the fix from another forum.


you replace the Default.wav file in the /Windows with a silent wav file.

I copied it to my computer, had to uncheck the read-only setting then opened in soundrecorder. it sure enough is that horrible beep. play it then select "delete before current position" Save it and replace.

haven't heard a beep yet

You healed the fever but did not cure the disease... check your appointments, alarms to see if is one of them that is causing it. You stopped the sound from playing, but whatever is causing the beeps is still there.

Try a hard-reset and do not sync with your PC for 2 or three hours. Also, do not install any app and let us know further.

Regards.

sounds like low bat issue or a missed message a missed text or mms or email that has not been looked at can cause it to send a reminder every 15 mins if you have that turned on. the one thing i had to do was open every email in the phone i had one not read and beep beep beep.

now your power might be high but if the battery is failing like mine i get the beeps at 50% because the bat is crap and at less then 50 shuts off.

is your phone on wifi?
if it has wifi enabled it'll beep everytime it searches out a new connection

those sound like logical answers but my phone had none of those symptoms....
I checked everything I could possibly think of. The people on the forum where i found that "fix" seemed to be just as baffled and nobody ever really came to any conclusion.

someone suggested searching the registry for instances of that .wav file and removing them but that didn't seem to help either

blanking the wav seems to be the only remedy for that annoying noise you're gonna find if you do happen to have this problem
