It will be some emergency alert sound

Often am getting this. Can you please tell is there any serious problem??

When this happens, does your phone display any sort of text notification or any icons in the notification area?

Take a look at your emergency alert preferences: Settings->Sound->Emergency broadcasts. The tone you're describing might be associated with some sort of government emergency alert system. I usually disable all of these.

I disable the sound notification in emergency broadcast. Let's see. If I get again will post here.

See if you get an entry for this sound in the notification log. Try this. Long press an empty spot on your home screen - widgets - scroll down until you find 'Settings 1x1' - long press and drag it to the screen - select 'Notification log' from that list. This process will create a widget, tap it and check that list. If you can't find anything related to that sound on that list, restart the phone and access the notification log right after you get it again.

Have you tried the steps I posted above? Also, boot in safe mode and see if you still get the same sound.
