I am in need of assistance in regards to this "smart phone" device I have been burdened with. It continues to make undesirable sounds throughout the day and into the night.

[ Okay maybe one person tends to message him throughout the night but that's neither here nor there. ]

It is bothersome. I want it to stop.

[ He has no idea how to turn the sound off or how to even turn the thing off! ]

Precisely. It's almost too easy...though I confess, such devices in the world I hail from could turn the tide of battle. Imagine being able communicate with your allies at the drop of a hat.

[ As always, he's thinking like a soldier. ]

[ Nothing wrong with thinking like a soldier ]

A double edged sword at best. Yes you would be able to communicate and coordinate but so too would your enemy. What if your ally suddenly becomes your foe? Then the information that should aid you only would become like a poison.
