Using Xstolite 2.2 on art kernel

Any other suggestions to ensure my alarms go off?

[SOLVED]
Here's a weird problem. I am NOT using the stock alarm system in Android, I am instead using the Kaloer clock application. I have all of the alarms off and deleted from the stock application, but the icon is still showing at the top. Does Kaloer clock enable the stock alarm icon? It has it's own built in icon so I wouldn't think so, but I'm wondering if I can get it turned off since I'm not using the stock alarm application.
[Solution:]
In the newest update of Kaloer clock, there is now an option to turn off the stock alarm icon as well as the Kaloer icon.
Thanks!
was wondering the samething?
I use Alarm Clock Plus & there's an option in settings to hide the alarm icon. You could try that, but I don't know how to do it with the app you use.
Turned off
The weird part is I have it turned off in the Kaloer clock app too. But I still get the icon at the top. If I reboot the phone, the icon goes away until the next time I run the Kaloer clock app. So I know it's linked to that app and not a general glitch. There's just no other way for me to turn it off and I find it kind of irritating since I'm anal retentive and don't want excess icons at the top of my screen.
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.
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
The built in alarm clock in Marshmallow is working fine for me. However one function has been disappeared.
I often snooze the alarm, and then want to dismiss it before the end of the snooze period.
Example: Get alarm or snooze display at 10 o'clock. Choose snooze, so alarm will go off again at 10:10. But at 10:05 I decide I don't want the alarm any more and want to switch the snoozing off and dismiss the alarm.
In previous version of Android, this was easy. Whenever phone was snoozing, there would be a notification in the notification pull down screen that I could just tap, and that switched off the snooze and dismissed that alarm.
In Marshmallow this has disappeared. There is a workaround by going into clock settings, switching the alarm off and then switching it on again so it would work the next day. But this is very clumsy.
Does anyone know how to get the notification back so it works as before?
Solved
After hours of changing app settings, and system settings, I finally tracked this problem down to Clean Master. There's a setting for battery optimization in Clean Master which had been switched on and which I switched off, and the snoozed alarm showed up in Notifications as it always had before.
Warning: I had never used Clean Master although it had always been on my phone as I downloaded it early on. Something changed this setting, it wasn't me and it was not using Clean Master.
I have noticed that changing certain settings can populate other apps with changed settings. No way of telling this has happened or which apps. I would say this is a major drawback with Android. Or downloadable Apps.
Got the update yesterday. Alarm Clock Extreme quit working (sounds and notifications, the app shows the alarm working and can be disabled, but unless you are looking at the app you wouldn't know). Installed Alarm Clock Plus, same thing. Google Clock works but the volume keeps going to ZERO. Do Not Disturb is not enabled.
Any ideas? This is a Verizon Pixel 2. Thanks!

I use "Sleep as Android" and have not had any issues.
Thanks, John. I'll check that out now. Alarm Clock Extreme started working this morning, which is strange, it didn't have any recent updates.
