I've had my Galaxy S3 for about 2 months now and I love it except one thing. I keep getting sound notifications several times a day, but I don't know what it is for. There is nothing on the the notification bar and I have a different sound play for email and text messages. It's driving me crazy, does anyone know what it could be?

I had a similar issue with mine, but for me, it happened when I put it in my purse. Eventually, it dawned on me that the NFC chip was trying to communicate with my transit card. Could something similar be happening in your case?
