I changed my ring tone and even call my phone to make sure it took. Then I check later and it's back to the Verizon stock ring tone. Any one else have this issue?

Strange. Do you have the ringtone saved to the device storage or SD card? I always recommend phone storage for any notification sounds since I've had issues with external storage in the past (Including Note II).

Try this...... Set it, shut down the phone, boot it back up.

I'm curious if that will force it to save.

Restarted after making the change and no help. By the way I'm trying to change the ring tone to one of the other stock tones.

I'm having this same issue. Not sure what's going on.

I was having this problem on my Samsung Stratosphere just before I turned it in for my Note 3. I suspect the SD card wasn't seated properly because I'd occasionally get an error that the card wouldn't be recognized. The phone had a lot of other problems relating to age, use, etc. though. And it did only start doing it towards the end of the phone's life.
 
What do you mean by "uninstalled your sound profile app"? I'm having the same problem; phone keeps going back to a default ringtone and I cannot find a pattern to it. Sometimes it's after rebooting, other times not. Thanks.
 
The app I was using was called "sound profile" I just un installed it and reinstalled it and that fixed my problem

If you are using SoundProfile by Corcanoe then you need to set the ringtones for each profile. This way you may have a different ringtone at home or at work. That is why every time you activated a profile the ringtone set in SoundProfile was activated, too.
To change it do this:

-Edit the profile you want to change the ringtone. To do that open the Edit Profiles screen and select the profile you want to edit.

-Click on the Tone next to call volume slider (please not there are 2 tone buttons. One for calls, the other one for the default notification).

-A list with the available ringtones in your phone will be displayed. Choose the one you want.

In case you want to use a mp3 file (or any other music file stored in your SD-Card) then you need a File Explorer Browser.
SoundProfile recommends a free one called ES File Explorer File Manager.
-Don't forget to Save your changes.

Repeat for every profile.

I think this is my issue. So how do you remove the ringtones from the sd card on a Note II?

Copy them from the external card to internal memory or card with a file explorer. (I don't remember if the Note II has an internal SD card or not.)
