Hello Guys,
I'm new to this forum but an old member from the IPAQ Hx4700 good times.
Here's the issue and I don't know if others experienced the same.
When I set an alarm into the built in Calendar, the alarm won't wake the device.
Even more strange, when I wake it from sleep, the time showed is like it was when the device went into sleep. It takes about a minute to refresh. Looks like the internal clock is stopping when going into sleep???
I think this is why the alarm doesn't come on, because the clock is not moving on?
Any ideas, do you experienced the same?
BTW, I talked to Viewsonic support today and a some new patch and enhencement are coming in 2 - 3 weeks.
Thanks for helping.
Charles
Please.... :/
I cannot get Alarm Clock Plus (no ads) to set up properly. Every time I try to set the alarm tone I want (no matter the source) it locks up. Either it hangs and drops back to the home screen or I have to reboot my phone.
I have tried emailing the maker of the app and have not received a reply.
I spent too much time trying to get it to work and missed the 15 minute return window. So right now it is worthless to me- and definitely a waste of money.
I haven't found a solution to this problem with Alarm Clock Plus (no ads) and alarm lockups. Has anyone else ran into this problem? If so, how did you fix it?
I am running [ROM][2.3.6]SGH-I997 UCLB3[Rooted, Deodexed, Busybox, Zipaligned.. on a Samsung Infuse.
Did the free version work properly for you?
Have you tried a diffferent ROM? It is possible since this is an aftermarket app designed for a stock ROM, that something within the ROM itself is causing it to crash.
Unfortunately, I didn't try the free because it was so highly rated. I will definitely check the apps out more thoroughly.

I have not tried it with a different ROM. I will continue to work on it when I have time.
I reinstalled the ROM, the stock kernel, and the extra power controls and viola! Alarm Clock Plus (no ads) is now working. I will keep my eyes crossed. I will either wake up and go to work or the alarm will fail and I will be late. We'll see....
Ever since I got away from Sense and started using the Jellybean clock app, I am having particular difficulties with the countdown timer feature of the clock app. I have found that no matter what I do, I can't get it to make a sound when the timer reaches 0. The screen will turn on, so if I can see my phone I notice it, but otherwise it's pretty useless.
Also, I have noticed that occasionally when I start a timer, it will stop counting part way through by itself.
Anyone know what might be going wrong?
I've never had this problem but you can try deleting the clock, reflash the 4.2 clock, wipe dalvik, and see if it fixes anything.
Here's the zip for the 4.2 clock

Just starting noticing that my alarm notification icon randomly appears and dissappear even though I have an active alarm set. Haven't flashed anything lately and previously the icon was always there until the weekend when I don't have it set.
Anyone else happen to notice this?

Yeah it happens to me all the time. I'm running CM11 on my Nexus 5. I've been digging, trying to figure it out, but nothing yet.
I've seen this happen at least since ICS on the Gnex

any of you happen to use the Carbon twitter app? I have a hunch this app is causing the icon disappearing issue.
I've temporarily uninstalled carbon to test my theory.
Carbon recently updated their app and it does some 'hiding' of notification bar icons when it goes full screen. Might be related - or might be nothing at all.
For me, the disappearing alarm icon only started in the past 2 days or so.
No carbon twitter app for me but I did recently install the Timely app, wonder if that has anything to do with this or just a coincidence.
uninstalling carbon wasn't the root-cause; alarm icon disappeared again.
i did install timely within the past week ... i've since un-installed and still get the disappearing alarm icon.
Same here. Timely. I was thinking it might have to do with Timely's syncing, but that's completely untested.

When u uninstall timely do u still have the disappearing alarm icon via the stock clock app? I can't figure this out.

I found a post on reddit that talked about the Timely app ... and that if you uninstall Timely but still had an active alarm, it will cause issues with the alarm icon with the stock app. So I re-installed Timely ... and sure enough, I had an alarm still 'active'. I deleted that alarm and uninstalled Timely - but still have the issues with the stock alarm icon disappearing.
There's a thread going in the google product forums on this same issue: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/nexus/oWxThT1ZPd0/IkdLlmB110IJ
Seems no one can figure out the root cause / fix.
Even I get this issue. In my previous phone too (having JB 4.1), this used to happen with default alarm as well as alarm clock plus.
Now I have cataclysm in my Nexus 5 and using Timely. Same happens here too.
I noticed this when I had Timely installed and even when I turned to alarm in it off it still made it disappear. I would suggest if you have any time or other app as such remove them and see if the issue continues.
I uninstalled Timely and it works as it should now.
Hope it helps.

I had this exact same problem with Timely installed. I uninstalled Timely and my alarm clock notification no longer disappears and reappears.
I hope this works for you.
I have the same problem (stock, un-rooted Nexus 5). What I've seen too is that it only disappears if I'm connected to WiFi. If I'm connected to T-Mobile's network, then the alarm notification displays just fine. But shortly after it connects to a WiFi network, the icon disappears.
In some of the Google support forums, a guy with the issue root-caused it back to the latest version of the Pandora App. Seems that ever since Pandora added alarm clock / wake-up functionality, it conflicts with the stock alarm icon.
I uninstalled Pandora a few days ago ... and my alarm icon is back to behaving normally.
i have the same issue with the icon... i do have timely... but it doesnt conflict with the app actually working... my alarms always go off even tho icon is not visible

i have no timely and no pandora but my alarm icon disappears anyway.. maybe xposed wanam makes some trouble with it cuz I modified all the colors of the statusbar icons? hmm... did somebody get another solution in the meantime?
My alarm icons only appear exactly two hours before the alarm is set to go off.
I have a Samsung T399 (T-Mobile version). For a while, I've used an android 4.4.2 rom (stock Metro-PCS, but I kept the T-Mobile modem). It had a very nice alarm widget built in which was 4x1 sections on the home screen, had a toggle button for the alarm on it, and could be set to show *any* alarm, not just the next one. My setup was to have several of these widgets, showing the alarms I use for various things, on a secondary home screen page.
Now, I've flashed a CM12 (android 5.0.2) rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-light/development/rom-cm12-light-beta-t3154688 which works *very* well; I have none of the problems described in the thread. However, the one thing I still miss from the Metro-PCS rom is the alarm widget. I can't find any that will show anything except the next upcoming alarm.
- What app can I use to fill my need?
- Alternately, can I get the app from the other rom? (I pulled the .apk and .odex from /system/app in a TWRP backup, but it won't install on the current rom and if I manually put it in /system/app/AlarmWidget (I notice all others have their own directory on this rom), I'm told "Unfortunately, Alarm has stopped." when I try to add it to the home screen.
