For the past few week my scheduled do not disturb has been turning off mid way through the night. I have reset settings, done a phone reset. Iv done very to fix the issue as side from doing a complete factory reset of the phone. It so frustrating waking in the middle of the night by notifications that would be silence

      Hi there Honeydipped,

       

      Thanks for reaching out. I definitely understand how annoying this can be. Since you already mentioned that you have performed a reset in settings and a phone reset. 

       

      Have you attempted to test your phone in safe mode? Doing this step, disables all third-party apps from running in the background that could be causing the Do Not Disturb feature to randomly turn off.

       

      Boot in Safe Mode:

      1. Press and hold the Side/Power button and Volume Down button simultaneously.
      2. When the "Power off" icon appears, touch and hold it until the "Safe mode" prompt appears.
      3. Tap Safe mode to restart your device.
      4. Once restarted, "Safe mode" will appear in the lower-left or right corner of the screen. 

       

      In this mode, try to test your Do Not Disturb to see if it's still turning off randomly. If the symptoms do not occur, uninstall the most recent downloaded apps.

       

      If you are still experiencing the same symptoms in Safe Mode, then a factory reset is recommended. Make sure you fully back up your device before doing this step.

       

      Let me know if this helps!

      Doesn't work. Please Samsung, FIX THIS. None of the standard suggestions changes the fact that my dnd scheduled sleep hours turn off at some point in the night. And if I click dnd, it turns off at some point. At least acknowledge this is a real problem and that you're looking for a fix. Please.

      I've been having this issue since the 8.5 UI update. The last program I downloaded was the update.

      I have no idea exactly when this began but it's very intermittent. I put my phone on the charger all night and in a different room. Unfortunately when sleep mode turns itself off it still wakes me up. This is a disgusting problem and samsung needs to either fix it or tell us why it's happening!
