If your Galaxy S25 FE keeps switching between sound, vibrate, or silent mode without you doing anything, it can get annoying. Notifications may go quiet, calls might be missed, or the phone could suddenly start ringing in a place where it should be silent. Luckily, there are reliable ways to fix this issue.
Why Your Galaxy S25 FE Might Be Changing Sound Mode Automatically
- Do Not Disturb or Bedtime Mode is scheduled to turn on at certain hours.
- Bixby Routines or Modes and Routines are switching sound settings automatically.
- A third-party app with sound control permissions is interfering.
- Software glitches or outdated firmware are affecting sound profiles.
- Accidental touches or button presses are triggering changes.
Check Do Not Disturb and Bedtime Mode.
Do Not Disturb and Bedtime Mode can mute calls and alerts automatically. If they are set on a schedule, your phone will keep switching sound modes even if you did not change it.
- Open Settings, and then tap Notifications.
- Tap Do not disturb, and then check if it is enabled or scheduled.
If Bedtime Mode is active, you can also find it under Settings > Modes and Routines. Adjust the schedule or turn it off if not needed.
Review Modes and Routines.
Samsung’s Modes and Routines can change sound settings based on time, location, or activity. If one is enabled, it may switch your phone into silent or vibrate mode.
- Open Settings, and then tap Modes and Routines.
- Check the list of active routines, and then turn off or edit any that control sound.
Check for Third-Party Apps.
Some apps, especially volume control or automation apps, can override system sound settings. These apps may be changing the mode in the background.
- Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
- Review recently installed apps, and then uninstall or disable any that manage sound profiles.
Disable Accidental Touch Protection.
At times, sound mode can be switched accidentally while the phone is in your pocket or bag. Enabling protection reduces this problem.
- Open Settings, and then tap Display.
- Tap Accidental touch protection, and then toggle the switch on.
Update Software.
Software bugs may cause unstable behavior with sound settings. Installing the latest updates ensures your device gets fixes and improvements.
- Open Settings, and then tap Software update.
- Tap Download and install, and then follow the prompts if an update is available.
Your Galaxy S25 FE changing sound modes on its own can be solved with these steps. Most of the time it is caused by a scheduled mode or routine, which can easily be turned off.

Can third-party apps really change my sound settings?
Yes. Some apps with sound management features can override your phone’s default sound mode. Removing them often fixes the issue.
Will resetting settings help if nothing works?
