Compared to the note 4 there are some key things missing or I have no idea how to enable them.
Lock Screen: is there a way to show the amount of steps taken?
Alarm: is there a way for it to tell you how long you have until the alarm goes off? Is it possible to show next alarm on the lock screen, clock widget or app tray? You have to go into the app everything to confirm you set it for the right time.
Clock Widget: is it possible to make it so when you tap the clock and not the weather it opens the clock app?

Hoping someone can help me with this issue:
One of the "voice command" apps I was using set an alarm, and now I can't get the alarm icon to go away from the notification bar. I'm using a TouchWiz-based ROM (Synergy), but the clock app doesn't show any alarms set/active. In fact, I deleted every alarm and the icon is still there. I'm sure it's something that one of the "voice command" apps set, but can't figure out how to remove it. I even uninstalled all the voice command apps I use, and it's still there.
Is there a way to see all active clock alarms outside of the TouchWiz Clock app?
Thanks much.
##Edit: Figured it out. Alarm had been set using a desk clock app while in dock that is different from normal alarm.
I have a question about the alarm app called Timely...
Is it normal to not see the upcoming alarm date/time on the lock screen? I see the icon in my notification bar but not on the lock screen. I'm used to seeing it on the lock screen with the stock clock app. Just want to make sure this will indeed wake me up for work in the morning.
On my old Nexus phone, when the google alarm clock would go off the screen would automatically light up to dismiss or snooze the alarm. On my F8331 on 7.0, the default sony alarm clock seems to require one of two things: either unlock the phone then find the alarm notification, then dismiss or snooze; or press a side button. I'm new to Xperia devices so forgive my ignorance but am I missing something to allow the alarm to wake the screen for dismissal? Trying to stick with the stock sony clock here too...
It's lighting/waking up the screen correctly on my 7.0 XZ?
Perhaps stamina mode is causing that effect if you happen to have it turned on.
Definitely not normal behaviour. Did you try clearing data/cache for the Alarm or Clock app?
Figured it out. It's bc of do not disturb+block visual disturbances+block when screen is off in the settings, sounds. Google clock ignores this (wakes the screen at alarm) however Sony clock does not. Just have to set the off time for do not disturb before the alarm goes off :good:
Thanks Racejal, it works now
Am I right assuming that the stock clock app is NOT able to display upcoming alarms neither in the lockscreen nor in the notification drawer (just a small icon on right in the status bar)?
How do you dismiss upcoming recurring alarms in advance (without using a third party app such as google clock)?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I too have been trying to figure out a way to display the alarm time on the lock screen. Its really tedious to open the clock app every time.
Hi,
Is it possible to set my default Gear S3 view to a custom widget instead of the main clock?
For example: whenever I open a widget, it stays on my screen until the screen timesout (15 seconds for me). When I turn my wrist, it takes me to the clock instead of the widget I was previously viewing.
Would anyone happen to know how I can configure this watch so that the last opened app / widget is shown after waking up my watch? I don't care about the clock feature itself... in fact, I'd rather just uninstall it & have my custom widget as the primary screen.
Thanks
