Lumia 920 alarm clock not working properly

The alarm clock on my Lumia 920 does not work properly. It randomly fails to sound the alarm. When the alarm should sound it just disables itself without making any indication that something has happened. Usually this happens when re-enabling existing alarms. This week I tested to always create a new alarm and it has already failed multiple times. Rebooting the phone seems to solve the problem temporarily but it always comes back.
I have not hard reseted my phone as I was hoping that the Amber update would contain a fix, but unfortunately the problem still exists with the update installed . I don't turn my phone off for the night and the problem is not with the volume being muted etc.
I bought my phone in December 2012 from the operator TeliaSonera (Finland).
This bug is really annoying as I have to carry a secondary device just for the alarm.

Ive found this problem with the 920/925 myself i usually stick it in flight mode at night now and leave it upside down so as to get full effect from the speaker,on the 925 that is.
I Hard reset it and its been fine since.
If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

  • 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

    Solved!

    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 working from 12:00AM 01/01/2011 ?

  • Alarm clock not working in iOS 7 with multiple alarms set.

    I usually have two alarms set on my phone, both using the stock clock app.  One about an hour before I need to get up (so I can turn the heater on and crawl back under the covers), the other for the time I am supposed to get up.  The second alarm works just fine, but the fist one has not gone off for several days.  They are not recurring alarms because I need to change the time each day due to my work schedule.
    The phone is *usually* in a speaker dock which is plugged into the wall, and works just fine for the purpose of playing my second alarm or any of my music.  When not in the dock, it is still plugged in to the charger but uses the built in speakers.
    Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone know of a possible fix?

  • Alarm Clock not working

    I have been unable to find a way to get the Alarm clock function to work on my nano.
    When setting to "beep" it should use the internal speaker on the nano, but it is not doing so (even with clicker sound turned on or through headphones or both).
    Time is set correctly, turned on, etc. but no alarm.
    Anybody else encountered this problem?

    I bought my 4gb black nano online, will I have a problem exchanging it instore here in LA? I want to exchange it, I'm very unhappy with the alarms not working. Even the guy at the genius bar couldn't get them to work.

  • Lumia 920 soft buttons not working after wireless ...

    I am having this new problem after I did amber update. Since then, whenever I place the phone on charge plate and take it from it, the soft buttons wont work unless I restart the phone. Its working fine before the update. Its an US AT&T phone.
    Does anyone have the same issue with their's after the update? or is there any resolution for this?
    thanks

    I have the same problem. I am not sure if an app update is what caused this, but my camera on my new Cyan Nokia Lumia 920 has stopped working. I took two photos yesterday, but when I tried to take some today my camera was a completely black screen with the bottom buttons grayed out and the top bottom to view recent pictures highlighted and still working. I don't know what to do because I purchased this phone off of Ebay and everything worked fine after I purchased it. I'm hoping I didn't get a faulty phone. 
    I have tried everything.... soft reset, deleting all the camera apps, and tried to reset the camera. I want to avoid doing a hard reset because it bricked my last Nokia and I don't want that to happen. 
    The only way I can use my camera is through an app, Nokia Glam Me. But it only uses FFC (front facing camera) 
    I don't know what else I should do. 
    Help. Please... 

  • Lumia 920, screen rotation not working, loosen obj...

    I have pre-ordered the lovely yellow 920 from Telstra Australia, in November, arrived around start of December. It is a fantastic phone to use, however there are several hardware and software issues influencing this experience in a bad way. Anyone have the same experiences with the folloing issues?
    Firstly, I have noticed only in just a few days of using it, the screen can get obvious scratches very easily from normal use without screen protector film. Now, there is a  pattern of many scratches from swipe up to unlock gesture. I though it would be as least do better than iphones
    Secondly, I have noticed what feels like a chunk of loose object inside the phone, as I shake it quickly left and right, which could even be heard, as two hard object in contact with each other. I have no Idea what could that be.
    Thirdly, the screen rotation simply stopped working one day without notice. Tried soft reset a dozen times and even hard reset to factory status did not fix the issue. This get me thinking, it might have been a serious hardware issue, or perhaps the accelorometer/gyroscope was damaged by that loose object inside the phone. However, today, all of a sudden it starts to work again.........Brilliant!.......not...
    Another issue is that it could get Literally Burning Hot on the top right corner(front) of the phone in some circumstances. I understand electronic devices can get warm while operating, my Nokia N8 gets warm during intense operation such as multi-tasking Map, Drive etc, But it never gets to a point when you have to consider whether it is still safe to use or not, sadly, I have to do that with my 920 while video chatting,
    There are even more issue with the software. A few random mornings in the past month, I wake up to a dead 920 on a wireless charging pad, only to be able to recover through soft reset procedure (Volum down + power).  No idea why....
    and sometimes as I accept an incoming call, the phone freezes on that screen. The call still goes through, three buttons are still alight and vibrates, but not functional. Again, only recoveralbe by soft reset.
    Does anyone have the same experiences with these issues?
    No matter what might caused these issues, to have all these occuring within a flagship smartphone, Me as a loyal Nokia fan (3210,6600,6220,3220,6300,N95,N8) is very disappointed.

    I also bought Lumia 920 and had same issue with accelorometer.  I have submitted phone in Nokia care and after 15 days they repired and given back. This happened in june 2013, now i started facing same issues again and my phone also get very hot while charging...... Can anyone advice how to get my device preplaced ???
    thanks.

  • Lumia 920 capacative keys not working and case cra...

    Hi,
    I have trouble with all three capacative keys on my lumia 920. They work when phone is held in hand,
    but when put on table they dont respod at all. Each time i want do do something with the phone i have to pick it up.
    With that problem phone s case crakles and makes all kind of noises. It have half mm gap on left side of the screen. Took it to service, but they returned with remark "issues have not been noticed on device". They just repleaced software, but that didnt fix it. What to do?

    Hi dejan385,
    Welcome to the forum! 
    Did something happen to the phone prior to these issues? When did these issues start to happen? Just to verify, did you bring the phone to a local 3rd party repair center, or to a Nokia Care Point? 
    Since the phone has already undergone an initial assessment but the issue wasn't fixed, we suggest visitting other Nokia Care Points / Authorized Service Centers (if possible) to have it re-evaluated. Check this link for the global Nokia support page: Nokia Wayfinder 
    Let us know if you need further help. 

  • Lumia 920 proximity sensor not working

    It's a 5 months old Lumia 920 and already the proximity sensor stopped working!!!
    When i make a call or receive a call, when i place the phone beside my ear, or cover it with my hand just to check, nothing happens! The phone screen doesn't go black, it stays active for the entire time and the phone charge drains like crazy.
    Guess it's a hardware failure. Still if anyone has any suggestions, i will appreciate much.
    Thanks in advance.
    BR,
    Saad

    I've had the same problem. The screen won't blank during a call (like the proximity sensor isn't detecting my face/finger/hand). I keep hanging up on people with my ear. I've taken to locking my screen before putting it to my ear but anytime I get another call / text / voicemail / calendar notification / alarm while i'm on the phone (which happens a lot still) it lights the screen up again and makes it where i'm able to hang up with my ear.
    I've factory reset, and had the phone replaced TWICE already. I'm on my 3rd Lumia 920 (and they all have the same issue!) This didn't happen until the most recent firmware update...so I think it was a problem created when they were trying to fix the other proximity sensor issue where the screen stayed on black all the time during a call.
    Rebooting does fix the problem temporarily, but it always comes back. I'm tired of hanging up on people and hoping for a new model device from AT&T but they're giving me **bleep** at the moment.
    TLDR: Factory reset, replacement devices don't fix the problem. It's a firmware bug. I'm on my 3rd 920 with the same issue. Extraordinarily frustrating.

  • Lumia 920 Wireless Charging not working - Known is...

    I have a Nokia Lumia 920, which works perfectly fine. I haven't had some of the other issues reported here with freezing, apps, etc.
    I have a Nokia charging plate and I've found that no matter what I do the wireless charging plate absolutely does not work. I've turned off Bluetooth, Wifi, turned ON Battery Saver, disabled every background app, even hard reset my phone and tried charging it from stock. The wireless charging plate doesn't even maintain the current battery state - The battery slowly drains hour by hour. I've also tried placing the phone on the charging plate in different positions to ensure it's making good contact. Nothing works.
    Is this a known issue? Is there anyway to identify a defective phone? Is there a possible fix for this? I love my Lumia, but this a killer feature I would expect to work consistently.

    OK, this thread is odd. My charging plate works fine. It has a side with a little ring and Nokia in it, and the other side has an oval of rubber around the periphery with the usual conformance writing on it that side Qi, CE, don't throw it on the trash icon,  Mine works just fine with the Oval down, and the Nokia in the ring up. Is that not what others see?
    I can turn it over, but it is touchy as to whether I can get the light to come on. Usually not. I assumed, initially, the oval went down to keep it from sliding around on the table, and Nokia went up because they want you to know it's Nokia. Has always worked that way. I wish there was a larger rubber something on the 'top' as the phone can slide and spin more than I think it should.
    For what it is worth, I much prefer the charge stand, but the plate is more convenient if I am going to travel somewhere for a while. Couple of days, just charger, week or so, might bring the plate for the hotel.
    BTW, I do get the connect noise when putting it on the charge plate. Sometimes it can take a second otr two. When I take it off, it can take several seconds to get the disconnect noise and the charging icon to go away. If I put it back on the charger before the disconnect noise and the charge icon goes away, it does NOT make a connect noise, though the light comes on. The light will also eventually go off at full charge.

    hi mate,
    have you checked that you are up to date with the latest firmware thur checking in Settings > Phone Update, and that you are up to date with all the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store? if you are, and you are still encountering problems then it appears you will need to visit your Nokia Care point for inspection of your phone.

  • Lumia 920 Internet Sharing not working with Window...

    I am unable to get Internet Sharing to work from a nokia Lumia 920 to Dell XPS running Windows 8 with Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1030. Help !!
    Things I have tried:
    + Checked the phone was actually working with Internet sharing:  Different laptop running Winows XP connected fine, everything worked
    + Checked the Dell XPS could connect to inernet sharing using an HTC One as the hot spot: everything worked fine.
    + Tried turning on FIPS: made no difference:
    + Tried updating/different drivers: made no difference
    + Tried turning of N, and only using g: made no difference
    + Tried different access point settigns on the phone: made no difference
    This is one of those things I expect to just work, like it does when the phoen is used with a different laptop, or when a different phone is used with this laptop.
    I've run out of ideas. Any help appreciated.

    Finally fixed it. First I tried using the latest Intel drivers, but to no avail. So I did a driver rollback, and that seems to be working. Driver version now at 14.2.1.3, Microsoft release.
    So problem is a compaitibility issue with the drivers on the windows laptop.  All I can advise others having similar problems is keep trying different drivers (newest not necessarily the best)

  • Lumia 920 camera suddenly not working after app up...

    I have had yellow Lumia 920 now for about 3 weeks and everything worked just fine. Yesterday evening (european time) I saw update reminders on the "shop" tile and there were 3 or 4 of them (Nokia drive+ and some others that I don't remember). I was doing something and didn't give a thought but just let the updates to be downloaded and installed and they went fine as far as I know. Today when I tried to take photos the camera suddenly dosen't work anymore. No matter if I click the hardware button or the camera app tile, it just flip back to live tiles. Camera doesn't work on Bing search either and not on any apps that utilized the camera.
    I wonder if anyone else have this problem or what I should do next... I have restart the phone a few times but it didn't help... I haven't hard reset it because I have so many stuff in the phone, if there is a easy way to do it I rather not hard reset it...
    Any suggestions are greatly welcome!
