Guys, help me out here.
If you set an alarm, and set it to some volume.
Now press volume rocker and turn your alarms to muted.
Now wait for your alarm to go off. For me, it completely ignores the global setting and sets the alarm volume back to whatever it was set up with in the alarm app.
My phone alarm went off even when muted in a cinema cause of this.... Is this a bug with my android install? Or can anyone else verify this?
Running nougat UK version.
Slide down your notification tab and look for "Do not disturb". You have the option for total silence or alarms only or priority only. Hope that helps

Been using the alarm function with no problems.......until recently! I woke up half an hour late for work the other day, went to check my phone wondering why the alarm hadn't gone off but the screen was flashing "SNOOZE " & "DISMISS" So the alarm was working but the sounds weren't and i had turned off the vibrate option because I hate that sound it makes.
I go into the alarm sound menu and none of them play, I go into the ringtones and they work fine. Same with message tones and music.
The sound options were all set correctly, alarm volume set to max. Silent mode wasn't the problem.
After a reboot the alarm sounds played again.
Anyone else had this problem?

Just had the exact same thing happen to me this morning. This is the second time it has happened. I had also received an SMS before my alarm was supposed to go off, and it vibrated instead of playing my notification sound (even though I did not have it on vibrate only mode). Very, very annoying. Bring on root+CM7!!!
If you have any task killers, remove them.
I know many of the task killers will do this to your clock.
Thanks pr0x2, but I am running only the stock Sense task killer.
The problem may with the ringer. otherwise, go to settings, find sound and select volume. you may have set the specific volume to min. increase the alarm volume in that try.
Anyone else have issues with the alarm volume randomly dropping down to silent? I feel like only a bank would need a silent alarm, why is this even a feature on phones? If you don't want the alarm, turn it off!
I usually try to check it at night, but I kinda feel like the setting should stick and I shouldn't have to worry about it. I am using Timely, and even when I test the alarm volume in the app - the system settings override. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Nope. I use the alarm daily and it has been the same volume every morning.
sounds like you have something overriding the alarm volume. ive never had a problem with the volume on my alarms, and it is its own slider (separate from ringer and notifications and media)
Since my phone did the update to the new android version, I have one big problem: The silence modes.
Before the update, I had to pull down the status bar and when I klicked on a speaker, it switched between:
loud, vibrate and alarm
vibrate and alarm
only alarm
now, when I press the hardware button for the volume, it switches between
loud, virbate, notifications, alarm
something confusing
and nothing, not even alarm
I want the old settings back, is it possible to configurate the new android to get my old settings back?

In short - no, you cannot get the old silent mode back with 5.0.2. A short Google search would have brought up that problem, it's called 'silentgate'. Biggest problem is, that the 'none' (interruptions) mode also mutes the message LED.
Lollipop 5.1 corrects some of the biggest problems, for example the LED notification in 'none' mode. But it's still not the simple old silent mode from KitKat.
Please search Google for Lollipop, silent mode and interruptions for more information.

I have the settings on my Gear S3 set as "Sound mode: Sound", and "Vibrate with sound" is switched OFF. However, whenever my morning alarm beeps to wake me up, it definitely still vibrates making an annoying buzzy sound on my bedside table! Does anyone know if I'm stuck with this vibrate for alarms, or is there a way to definitely remove the vibrate feature from the alarms?
Secondly, it would be great if I could dismiss an alarm with a voice command rather than having to do so by sliding my finger across the screem. Anyone know if there's a way (or and add-on app) that will allow me to dismiss an alarm with my voice? (S-Voice does not ofer such an option at present as far as I've found - or maybe I just need to use the correct verbal command?)
Does anyone know how to change the default alarm clock sound and vibration for Google clock alarms that are set on the phone? I haven't found a way to change these and it annoys me when the clock is making a sound immediately when the alarm triggers. On my phone I have set it to be a raising volume alarm so I can wake up (or snooze) without everyone in the room waking up. My previous watch didn't have a speaker so it was just a vibration on the wrist that woke me up.
