What's wrong with you? Oh, now that you realized you made a mistake and I didn't say "Alarming"? The app tited "Alarmed" is the first thing that pops up if you search the App Store using the search term "Alarmed". It is also the name of the app as it appears on the screen of my phone. Oh, and the developer refers to it as "Alarmed" on his website.It may not have occured to you but, it is possible for more than one app to have the same name. Most of the people here are smart enough to figure out which one is the alarm clock by reading the description. But, we've already covered the reading comprehension thing,

Alarm clock issue after OS upgrade to 5..0.0.973

I upgraded to 5.0.0.973 and now I have issues with my alarm clock not displaying the time while charging at my bed side. I have Verizon and tried using the latest upgrade from Sprint. 5.0.0.1030 but the alarm clock issue remains. Rolling back the upgrade I am told would be one answer, but is there a way to dispose of the offending file somehow might be a good fix. Totally frustrated with BB at this point. One of the few things l like about my phone and they mess it up!! The Droids and the I-wanttobetrackedeverywhereIgophone is looking attractive these days.

Well i have the same issue, let me go over the items i have done.
First did the OTA upgrade. Issue happened.
then i downgraded to .886. worked normal.
Updated with Desktop Manager. Issue happened.
Wipe of Device to see if software conflict. Issue still happens.
also done several batteries pulls to see if that would fix it. still issue happens.
I've just downgraded again to .886 and it works. at this point i am going to be staying with .886 unless a fix is found for .973.

Nokia N8 Belle Alarm Clock Issue

I was finally able to update my N8 to Nokia Belle a week ago and was reasonably impressed with it's attempt at an Android Froyo kind of thing, it is a step in the right direction. However-
I set a several alarms for between 6:45 and 10am today (I'm a fairly heavy sleeper). I snoozed the first alarm by turning over the phone to give me a few more minutes of sleep. The next thing I know, my sleep is breaking and it's 9:32am! All without a sound from any of my alarms.
I looked at my phone, and saw the box with 'Stop' and 'Snooze' on it, for the 6:45 alarm, as if it had just been activated and was waiting for me to choose either option. I pressed 'Stop' to get rid of the box and suddely similar boxes for all the other alarms started popping up in rapid succession, only then. What happened???
I was willing to wait 6 months past the original release date because I assumed such bugs were being sorted out properly; a smartphone shouldn't still be grappling with Alarm clock bugs - it should have better things to do. I'm hoping there's a quick solution to this problem, as I cannot wait two years for the next update. Please advise!
Also why does shuffle deactivate everytime I return to my song list? Seems silly, really - I don't want to have to keep turning it back on.

First thing First!
AlarmClock: Being Honest! theres no such issues with the Default Alarm app. U might hav done sumthing unusual during sleep or your app had been crashed or it might b buggy or may b sum RAM issues.
Its not a General issue.
I myself is a Heavy sleeper lke You!
I too set 7 Alarms within 6:30 - 10:00 range.
All works fine with my Nokia N8-00 Belle.
MusicPlayer: Yeah! this had been a big problem for Music lovers that when you are Dazzling on SHUFFLE mode & once you clicked on a particular song in a list, the SHUFFLE is de-activate itself.
It might be a problem for Some people, but Logically speaking If you are in A Shuffle mode, u should not interrupt the playlist, if you do it gets deactivate automatically.
Nokia got a point this time
In Love with Nokia, Symbian & N8-00

Alarm Clock Issues

I created the alarm clock app and it works fine from when I self start up, but it does not auto wake to the time I set in the energy saving options menu. I tried letting it completely shut down and start itself up and just sleeping, but neither would result in it starting and running the app. Are there any minor details I could be missing?

IPhone Alarm Clock issue after iOS4.0 upgrade

This is a strange one;
Upgraded to i0S4.0 couple of days ago, and since then the default alarm clock app has gone haywire. It has duplicated each of my alarms (I must've had about 9 in there fore various things) about 50 times.
If I try and delete them, they disappear but if I exit and then re-enter the app, they're all there again!
Any suggestions?
Cheers.

I'm having the same issue. I had 8 or 9 legitimate alarms set, as well, but now there are somewhere between 1500 and 2000 with a couple hundred duplicates of each one. The number of duplicates is growing, too, but I can't tell if the additions happen each time I sync the phone or each time the clock program is reloaded on the phone. I noticed this first on my 3G after upgrading it, and it is also happening on the iPhone 4 having all my data transferred from a backup made of the 3G running 4.0. I've also noticed that if I try to delete them from my phone, at some point the clock program becomes nearly unresponsive causing even other programs than the clock to crash and requiring the phone to be resynced.
I've seen a couple of people mentioning similar issues in other threads that sound like they could be related or even the same, and they are always talking about upgrades on the same phone. There doesn't seem to be anyone affected who transferred directly from a 3.x device to a new 4.0 device.
While not a solution, here's at least my suggestion of why it's happening. I've poked around a bit in the backup files stored on my laptop from this phone (under ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync), and I've found two different plist files in the same backup storing the alarms in two slightly different formats.
This is purely conjecture, but I would guess what happened is the location & format between 3.x and 4.0 of where the alarm data is stored changed. The "upgrade" isn't a complicated process that mulls over and handles situations like this during the install. It's just a wholesale firmware replacement. Any changes like this would probably need to be handled by the actual programs themselves when they're running on the phone. Something in the upgrade process that's supposed to translate the old format to the new format is broken leaving behind the old data instead of removing it after the conversion, and every so often some trigger in the clock program (like a check for new data after a sync or just the initial loading when the phone restarts) is causing it to see that old 3.1 style data still there, redo the conversion process, and reimport what it finds as another set of duplicates.
That's only a guess, though, and as it's a one-way backup-only folder I can't edit them and resync to see if cutting them out of the data files on the laptop will remove them from the phone. Even if this is wrong, though, I can't imagine how it could be anything too far different from this. That would be a very simple bug to introduce into the code that would be specialized enough to be easy to overlook in testing. Again, that's all just a guess.
While I'm making wild speculations: I'm guessing the problem with the phone needing to be resynced when deleting several alarms is from one of these files on the phone storing the alarm data getting corrupted. If I was a betting man, I'd say this is likely due to corruption making the XML of the plist malformed from different threads writing changes to it simultaneously because it's so huge from all these entries and seeking through the file to update it is taking longer than anyone would reasonably expect and test for or program to protect against. Because, honestly, who thinks while coding something like this, "I need to make sure the user is safe when editing 2000 alarms..."

Daylight savings/Alarm Clock Issues

Since DST, my iphone3G enjoys waking me up the hour before my alarm is set. Granted this could be worse, it could be the hour after... Anywho, need a fix, because my mental sanity is on the line here, I cannot keep hitting the snooze button for the last hour of my precious sleep!

For me it was an hour after. I was upset because my wife's job called at 4:30 and I get up at 4:45 so I just went about my business until I got downstairs for some coffee and found out that I should have already left for work. I was going to be a half hour late to work and since I work by the hour, there goes half hour pay gone. I rebooted the phone and the time corrected itself but does anyone know whether this will occur again or if this is a one-time occurrence.
I have been waiting for iPhone 5 because I am eligible for upgrade but I here that iPhone 4 also had this issue so not sure which way I will be going.

5G Oddities - Alarm clock and audiobooks

My 5G ipod is a wonderful toy but I've noticed a couple of oddities that I wonder if anyone else has experienced. They both relate to switching away from video playback - i.e. I had been watching a video on the ipod before ...
In both cases the iPod is sat in a powered dock.
1) When watching video & using the sleep timer to turn it off (falling asleep infront of a very small TV) the alarm clock doesn't seem to sound the next morning. When I fall asleep to music it works fine.
2) When navigating away from a video to an audiobook (through the audiobook menu - though not if chosen as a "song" or "album") the audiobook plays back like an old 45 set on 33.
(for you "youngsters" who have never played with vinyl records that means "slowly" ).
Can anyone else reproduce this?
iBook G4, Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Thanks, I had searched for the alarm clock issue but only remembered the audiobook one as I was writing it. Unsurprisingly that's the workaround I came up with.
My guess would be that the same problem is affecting the alarm clock operation
so when they fix one they'll probably fix both. In the meantime I should probably just stop falling asleep to video if I want to get woken up by my iPod.
Thanks again.

Nano 4g will suddenly not work with alarm clock. What happened?

As of the last time I synced it, my iPod nano 4g will not work with an alarm clock. What happened? It doesn't work with mine or with my roommate's, and her iPod will work with my clock. My iPod will PLAY in the clock dock if I turn it on and hit play, but won't wake up and play anymore as an alarm. I tried setting the alarm on the iPod instead of on the alarm clock, and that doesn't work as a fix (it won't make the clock wake up). ARGH.

Yeah, mine won't work. Just started acting up this week.
It doesn't work at all. I can set the alarm for any time, and it simply doesn't go off. I got a replacement phone of the same LG Accolade model, and it doesn't work either.
I switched the clock display settings, thinking there might be a glitch there. Didn't work when I changed it, or when I put it back to my original settings.
Agh!
Hi Robert116,
Please ensure that you have software version VX560V04 installed on your phone. For instructions to view software version please visit this LINK.
If you do have the correct software version a LG Accolade VX5600 - Master Reset may resolve the alarm clock issues outlined on your post. A master reset will resolve issues if any of your phone's system files became corrupted.
Please keep in mind that a master reset will erase all data and restore preferences to factory default specifications. Performing a hard reset is only recommended when the existing data has been backed up or is unwanted. Please backup your information before you do a master reset.

Nokia Lumia 720 Alarm clock not working

My alarm clock is set and activated but it does not go off in the morning. On all my previose Nokia phones this has never been a problem. i turn my pnone off at night.
My previouse Nokia phone was the E7, a great phone. On the keypad you had the option to go up, down left or right to correct any mistakes written etc, on the Lumia720 this feature is absent.
I can not get the email to leave a copy of my mail on the server once retrieved on the phone, POP mail. i need to be able to retrive this on my PC at a later stage, not a problem on the E7.
last but an issue, i can not send a MMS out or an attachment even though i have a 3G signal, if I leave mobile data on then the phone connects to all sort of stuff and runs up the usage, not an issue with the E7

Ok so I will get over the alarm clock issue by carrying a second phone which I normally do as I travel foreign a lot and get a local sim card for the country travelling in. I have been in the habit of turning my phones off at night except when abroad where my home phone is on in case of an emergency at home, I do not appreciate being disturber after work hours by clients. The battery life is a lot longer when the phone is switched off at night even if the phone is in a sleep mode.
I gather I will just have to come to grips with the lack of being able to place the curser wherever I wanted but the feature on a keyboard is good and will be missed.
Now for the issue of my mail being removed from my server when accessing it with my phone, there does not seem to be a feature when setting up a POP3 email account, where you can retrieve Headers only or Msgs and attachments. I need my mail to go to my office PC besides being able read them when on the move. On the older version in the Sync content section when setting up a new account you had the choice.
The mail issue is a problem though.

Alarm Clock (NOT Jan. 1 issue)

I've had an issue with my iPhone alarm clock for a while now. If your alarm starts going off and then you get another notification then the alarm stops going off. I feel this is something that definitely should not be happening. I wanted to e-mail Apple directly about this, but couldn't manage to find the e-mail address. I'm assuming it's probably just [email protected], but I wanted to find the site link for it so that it would actually go directly to the right department.
Anyways, anyone else ever have this issue? I would love to see a fix for this come out considering it's been an issue as long as notifications have been around.

I have a feeling it's not a huge problem because of the fact that it has not yet been addressed. I will check the places you suggested as well as call Apple, but I have a feeling neither will have a solution.
I figured out how to replicate the issue. I have a game that will send people on missions and when they get back it gives a notification. I sent someone on a mission that took two minutes and then set an alarm to go off after 1 minute. The alarm starts going off, but then when the notification for the mission complete comes up the alarm stops sounding and vibrating. This is a huge problem in my eyes, and should definitely be taken care of.
If anyone else could try replicating this and let me know their results I'd be very grateful.
Thanks,
Andy G

Need a Palm Pre alarm clock solution

I want to use my Palm Pre as an alarm clock. I have the Pandora app downloaded and saw an app in the AppCatalog called 'Wake to Music' that integrates with Pandora (Why doesn't the built in alarm?). If I buy blue tooth speakers (any recommendations?), will there be anyway to configure the Pre so that the speakers ONLY work when on the touchstone? I don't want the speakers to engage when I'm on the phone and in range of the bluetooth. Also, will I be able to configure it so that ONLY music comes through the speakers? That is, I don't want the phone to ring through the speakers.

I saw this and was wondering if you had figured this out yet? Music can be added to your ringtone folder, and used as the alarm. That's how I do it....
Take care.

Issues with Alarm Clock and Calendar Notifications

I have noticed that when I am using the Alarm clock, it will not go off when the calendar is showing a meeting reminder....
Is there any way to dis-activate this? My alarm clock will not work.. and there are too many appts in my calendar to go thru them to change...

I also have the same issue. If the alarm is set and the calendar sends a notification just prior to the alarm time, the calendar notification prevents the alarm from going off. I understand it is a bug, but when will it be fixed? What is the bug ID? how do we track known bugs so we know they are being fixed? The problem is with the iPhone's included clock and calendar apps, so it is not a 3rd Party application issue, right? Thanks!

Accurian alarm clock screen issue

Hi,
I checked the discussions before posting this, and I'm surprised no one's posted anything regarding this issue.
I just bought an Accurian alarm clock at Radio Shack (very retro, love it!). I'm very impressed with the sound, but the screen will not shut off, the iPod stays on all night. This cannot be good for the iPod's screen, I'm afraid it will shorten the display's life. I've tried to turn the screen off manually; it does turn off, but turns right back on as long as it's docked. I have not contacted Radio Shack, so I thought I'd check here first. Does anybody else have this alarm clock, and have you figured out how to make the screen shut down? If I can't work around this, I might have to return the item. I'm just too scared about the display life. Anyone out there figure this out yet? Thanks for any help.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
That sounds strange.First of all try to clear data for clock under settings > apps > all > clock > clear data. Restart your device and try again.
If the behavior persists, I would suggest that you try to boot your phone into safe mode to see if the problem may be related to any 3rd party app that you have installed in your phone:

Issues with Alarm Clock after DST switch

Since ages now my iPhone's alarm clock is setting off at 6am...Since ages? Yep! True! But, actually: BUT not any more since the DST switch last weekend.
Since then it sets off one hour late!!!
And this without having changed anything in the definition of the alarm!
And this with the phone's time displaying the right (winter) time!

This is an acknowledged bug on iOS4.1 (at least according to an article on the Guardian). It was found about 3 weeks ago in Australia and NZ where DST change happened then. It only affects recurring alarms (one-off alarms are working fine). I have to do some research but it looks that also affected some calendar appointments set on time zones different than mine. The recommended action is to set up one-off alarms only but I find better to set my recurring alarms one hour early until a patch is issued by Apple.
