Hey there,
I got my mi mix 3 since Monday. Great phone, only have one issue where my 3th party alarm doesn't seem to wake me in the morning. The phone looks like it's so deep into deep sleep that he doesn't wake up Hen the alarm is supposed to run off. Anyone has an idea how I can fix this? First day I got it the alarm worked btw, but after that it doesn't seem to run off or run off when I unlock the phone.

Have you tried to lock this app in memory and/or turning off battery saver for this app?
How do I lock it in memory? I disabled the battery saving option

Hey guys,
Not sure if this is common but my alarm app (Alarm Extreme but tried other also) doesn't go off until I wake the phone lol.
This is probs due to DeepSleep. I've once seen a popup for auto hibernation, and I deselected the alarm app.
But I can't find that menu anywhere and its getting annoying as I rely on my alarm to wake me for work.
Any help is appreciated.
I'm having the same issue with Alarm Clock Xtreme as well. It works fine on my S6. But like you, I have to wake the phone up in order for it to work. Ugh!
So, I need help too. LOL.
Did you remember to turn off app optimization for the app under battery more optimize battery use all app

I have a pretty much stock S7, and my alarm didn't go off this morning. This was configured using samsung's own preloaded version of the 'clock' app, and the phone was on a charger (which should prevent doze.)
Thankfully, I have kids. They are noisier than any smartphone alarm clock could ever be.
With me it's always the same type of question....did you try the built in clock app?
Was the phone lying on it's face if so try with it on its back if it works turn off easy mute

My Galaxy S7 has the same problem, using Alarm clock Xtreme.
The battery optimization is set as inactive for the app and it still doesn't go off.
And yes, had it laying on it's back. No cover.

I'm also using Alarm Clock Xtreme. Have been using it for years and never had a problem.
I had Light Manager and AcDisplay running when I ran into the problem. Any of you using those apps?
Seems that everyone with problem uses Alarm Clock Xtreme?
I also had the same problem on S6 with Alarm Clock Xtreme. I think they don't use the "doze-safe" alarm methods, and the app was updated in April 2015...
I haven't experienced this yet with my S7 as I just got it 2 days ago, but when my LG G4 upgraded Marshmallow my alarm apps started to get a bit wonky. Same thing as described above where alarm won't go off in deep sleep. I was using Gentle Alarm at the time and even tried turning off the optimization on the alarm which did not help. I've read a few other Marshmallow devices has the same issue, but it seems if they use the stock clock app everything works. I'm not a huge fan of the stock one though. Hopefully they fix this with an update.
Same thing here with alarm clock extreme.

Alarm not going off
Using alarm extreme. Can set alarm for all different times during day and it works fine but DOES NOT WAKE ME IN MORNINGS.
Is there a setting missing somewhere? Have the galaxy s7. Worked fine on the s5.
Same here (Alarm xtreme)
First day of usage in the morning, did not go off.
I tested it yesterday evening, worked okay.
Today morning did not wake me again, until a pressed the button on it's side.
Any solution to this?
Same here - Alarm clock xtreme with Galaxy s7 edge. Set it to wake me after 1:30 hours - it starts after 1:55 hours.
Alright... I think I may have solved the issue. I went into the "Optimize Battery Usage" menu in the battery settings. I turned off the Optimize Battery Usage option for Alarm Clock Xtreme. I've been testing this for the last several days and it's been working fine.
Anyone else care to try this to confirm that it's fixed?

I tried that a few days ago, it woke me up one morning, but the next day it didn't work until I "wake up" the phone. I do have my phone on "power saving mode" because I listen to music
for over an hour to help me sleep and I don't want my battery to drain too much when I wake up. I don't know if the power saving mode is affecting this as well.
Have you tried it with power saving mode off?

This "doze" feature is starting to annoy me. Alarm clock xtreme works perfectly fine on my S6 with power saving mode on. But it's still
running on Lollipop. I know it's a Marshmallow thing. Google should give us an option to doze or not to doze. LOL
If your phone is on a charger, it won't go into doze. I thought I read somewhere in this thread that the problem was being experienced even when the phone was left plugged in.
Is there a way to have Power saving mode automatically turn on when battery level reaches a certain %?
Or, have a shortcut created on notification tray instead of the Ultra Battery mode?
Guess there is no way?
Automatically I don't think so. Maybe if you're rooted and using something like Tasker or Trigger.

Add Widget - Settings Shortcut - Battery Saver - Open Widget and Set - Delete Widget.
Available Settings: Never; 5%; 15%.
They seem to have forgotten to put this in settings. Couldn't find it anywhere else.

Read the fourth post.
Superb find!
Yeah, was using the z launcher from Nokia. So there were no setting shortcuts.
Found it in default launcher.
Thanks
This seems to be separate from the battery saving in Phone Manager. When it auto activates, the one in Phone Manager is still not activated.
No way to turn this off without the widget either once the battery is below the set %
Sorry but with stock launcher I don't find that widget. I am a bit confused
Short howto for stock launcher
See attachments
Hi, I've enable battery saver with widget shotrcutut but apparently when battery reaches 15 precent saver doesn't start.
Any clue how it works on the P10? Because Battery Saver is not an option within the widget.
Yes unfortunately this widget is not present on the P10
Even with the latestest B162 firmware.... I am also looking for such a way to enable battery Saver
In the quick shortcut menu, there is one but for the Ultra Economy mode which is so pointless.....
There definitely is some sort of automatic power saver as when I bought my p10 it used to automatically turn on power saver when the battery dropped below 50%. The main bar at the top would turn orange to indicate that power saver mode was on. At the time it drove me crazy and I spent ages trying to figure out how to turn it off. Now I can't remember how I did it or how to turn that function back on. It was on Android 7.0 though and now I'm on 8.0a so perhaps it was a Google OS setting somewhere....
I installed QuickShortcutMaker (it's all one word, I think) and then went to add a shortcut.
On my Mate 10 Pro I searched for saver, and it offered the screen where auto battery saving would kick in at 15%, or 5% or never.
Battery's not low enough yet to test if it actually works, though.
That app is really good for revealing hard to find settings.
Since today I'm on Open Beta 5, and I have the isse that apps like Snapchat/Instagram and Gmail aren't sending any notifications until I open the app and manually refresh them.
WhatsApp is working as it should.
I already checked the notification settings in these apps, but everything is set up as it should. I also tried "not optimizing" the apps in the battery settings, no help.
Any other idea?
Pin them in recents and it may help. Also make sure you have turned off sleep stanby optimisation under battery optimisation

I tried your advice but it didn't help as well. Sleep standby optimisation is turned off too...

I hate to say.. but factory reset is your best option .. this happens sometimes on OnePlus phones
Hey,
Quite weird but all battery charging alarms I tried didn't go off when reaching selected charging level on mi note 10. I gave apps all permissions and locked them to be always in tray. Phone is not rooted, miui 11.
Maybe smn knows app which works.
Cheers
I've been there and tried many methods. MIUI is using different method to provide info about charging / discharging. As far as I tried and tested, there is no way to get info about charging state if you DON'T have root.

Found out about this problem too. Can't even get their alarm clock app right Xiaomi. My alarm only rings 30MINS after it's set.
Unacceptable.
Full battery and Theft Alarm app
works for me.
Problem sold.

Lock app in recently used apps!
When you open recent apps tray press and hold the app until a menu appears and you can click the lock.
And turn Off battery optimization for battery app.
I use Battery Alarm app
I think I always forget about the niggles I have with the CN version of Xiaomi phones and then still buy another. Currently got the EU firmware, and still the same issue.
Common problem for me anyway is the Google Clock app. The alarm fails to go off and the widget still displays the alarm time of the missed alarm, e.g. it says Tue 6am when I do finally wake up, and not display Wed 6am as expected.
I've turned off battery optimisation, and it still fails to go off. If I test it by setting an alarm for a few mins time it works every time.
Similar to Gmail notifications and other apps. When the phone is not used for a while, notifications don't come through until the phone is used.
Any idea how I get the alarm clock to wake up and then wake me up?
Have you tried to lock the app using the recents menu? Open recents using the 3 lined or menu button and then hold the clock app, then select the padlock.
Might keep it active for you
Thanks. Will report back tomorrow if I wake up in time
On top of the memory-lock mentioned above, I'd also recommend turning on autostart for the app

Thanks. I can now see it's tried to autostart several times and been denied so set that to allow. Cheers.
Sadly I didn't wake up this morning (until my iPhone alarm went off.)
The phone just seems fast asleep until I wake it, then it starts receiving all the overnight notifications that my old phone would have just got silently and be there waiting when I look.
I will set an alarm for the morning and report back.
Thanks! I'll try the pre-installed clock app and see if that works.
The Xiaomi clock app works, so seems to be just the Google apps that fall asleep.
Mine went off as planned. Attached screenshot shows it being set off from notifications. Maybe check your notification settings?
Thanks. It goes off if I test it and set it to say 5 mins time, it seems to only be when the phone has not been used for some time, say midnight to 6am, then it seems to have gone to sleep itself. If I wake up early and check the phone, the alarm goes off, so notifications should be ok in that case?
Mine was set night before and in the screenshot you can see that I checked it after 6 and then the phone was left on charge with the screen off as it would normally be over night.
I think I may have fixed it. My alarm has gone off the last two days at least.
I turned off "sleep mode" in battery settings, hidden away under smart scenes.
