So a day ago or so my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active (SGH-I537) Started to beep, Loudly. Sounded like a fire alarm, no exactly like a fire alarm. After checking around the house we noticed it was my phone. Then I did my research but nothing really came up. One video had a beeping just like mine except it was the S5. She countered the problem by turning it off as I did but she disabled the comments so i don't know if anyone knows the fix. This could be a one time thing but I will not take my chances with this. I don't know the reason for beeping. When it started I was just holding it, nothing more. Going through the setting got me nowhere, it could mean anything, security issue, some ones tracking it?, did i press a combo of buttons that set off the beeping? Does it sense a deadly gas?(seems far fetched but who knows.) I would love if some one could give me advice on how I should proceed.

This is the link to the video i've watched. (I don't support this channel at all or sponsor it just a reference.)
Now in this vid you can see a different phone (S5), and she turned the volume down and the beeping went low. When mine was beeping I did not mess with the volume so this beeping could be different but it does sound exactly the same.
