One day my old man said he had an alarm icon on his status bar on both of his Sony Xperia Z1 and Lenovo Tab S8
First thing was to check clock app but no alarms where set up there on both devices, I tried disabling notification from the clock app but its still persistent
He is logged in his Gmail on both devices so I checked Google Calendar but also nothing
When I get on the quick settings menu, it says set alarm at a time that is 2-4 minutes ahead of the actual time
I tried disabling the automatic time and date but its still there, I even tried changing the time on the deviced 15 minutes ahead but the alarm would be 17-19 minutes ahead, and when I change the time back to actual time it says set alarm 2 minutes ahead
is this a known bug or my old man did something and found a bug?

Here is an issue I have noticed that is not unique to this ICS ROM.
I frequently (every night) use voice actions to set my alarm. It's amazingly convenient. I have noticed that the voice action completes, you click set to confirm the correct time and the dialog pops up that says "alarm set for x hours x min". But the alarm does not always 'stick', you will notice the alarm clock will not appear in the notification area. Under clock > alarms it will show the correct alarm created and the box checked but the system does not really have the alarm set ( it wont actually go off). If you uncheck and then recheck the alarm will 'stick'. This doesn't happen every time but often enough to force me to check before I go to sleep. Any ideas what may be causing this?
How do I get rid of my alarm icon. I don't have any alarm set never did it just came on the other day and I can't get rid of it I go into my clock app and there are no alarms set
I fixed it
The icon was lit up because I have a schedule recording on TuneIn Radio. Never had it before guess it's a new thing since I updated the app last week
Hello,
I am having weird issue. I am using default CM12.1S rom with all updates + xposed with few minor modules.
Default clock alarm sometimes does not work, if it is set after few minutes from putting phone it works every-time, but if I use it to wake up in the morning sometimes it does not launch it all ~2 from 7 times.
I can see in status bar that clock is set and time is shown correctly, but sometimes it just does not go off.
And I am not missing it because I can not hear it, alarm goes off just fine on tablet (backup plan to not miss work), then clock should launch it after minute in the phone, but it does not do that.
This started one week ago.
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.
So I have multiple issues with the clock
- timers do not pop up when finished, nor does the notifiy take me to the app.
I set a timer (either manually or via hey google) and leave the app, and lock the screen. When the timer finishes, the screen lights up, but doesn't take me to the timer screen so I can stop it, I have to unlock my phone, navigate to the clock app, go to the timer tab (sometimes) and stop it manually
- alarms don't play after the first alarm, the first alarm works normaly any subsequent alarm doesn't even wake the screen and then a persistent "upcoming alarm" notification sows up, and when tapped it takes me to the alarms tab on the clock app and a toast notification appears and says "your missed alarm was deleted." The alarm is not in the app, yet the notification is still there, and I am still late.
I reinstalled 9.5.x and the alarm and timer both behave as expected.
After an update, back to broken.
Could it be that you have installed several clocks?
Nope just the one clock
