Hi, this morning the WM alarm clock of my tytn ii failed to raise at the correct time, but finally the alarm did go off about 58 minutes later (the device was left untouched in sleep mode until that). The notification still showed the correct alarm time in the message, and the acutal time (wrong) time in header and top bar.
Never heard of this problem before, any suggestions??? Please help me to identify the problem with this "ready for business"-device (lol).
I think i remember reading something similar to this on another thread. where the problem was something to do with time sync (by activesync or network). Perhaps somebody who has had this problem can help?
Try disabling the HTC Home plugin and the Task Manager. That seems to help fix it.
I do not know if this is connected or not, but -
I have a (perhaps) similar problem with the alarm.
My alarm is set to 07:30 every morning.
A while ago, I travelled to france and adjusted the time zone by one hour. I have since returned home, but since, the alarm rings at 06:30 every morning.
The setting is still 07:30.
There is no alarm set for 06:30.
The system **** shows the correct time and the time zone is also correct.
Is it possible that 'old' and incorrect entries are stored in the registry, and trigger the alarm wrongly?

Try to use some another program like SPB Time or another.

exact same problem here (i did visit germany not france though )
does anyone have a solution without disabling things like the home plugin?
(it's not the auto change timezone/clock from sim setting as i have that before this prob occured and its still off...)
Try cleanining the notification Que using sktools or some similar program, this alarm problem is a well known bug in WM devices and has been for a long time
You may want to check your time zone is correct. Also check that the time IS NOT being updated from the network, if your cell provider has an incorrect time zone this could cause the problem.
I have been having the same problem. I can set an alarm for 8:00AM, but it will ALWAYS go off at 7:00AM. If I set it for 8:01AM, it will go off at the right time. I have no idea why it's happening and can't seem to find a solution...
Alarm Problem
I have the same problem. My alarm goes off at 5:20 a.m. every morning. I updated the TILT rom with the new updated AT&T rom. I set the alarm once for 5:20 am. After that it has gone off at that time every morning regardless of what I do to the alarm clock settings . Anyone know how to fix this problem????

I agrree - clean Notification Que....., BUT cleaning every week, monts ... so boring.....
stop using buged WM clock to alarm - well, how I said, use some another clock program like SPB Time or similar.
I've always had alarm clock issues with every wm device I've ever used. Either going off at the wrong time or not at all. I downloaded 3rd party gentimer and just transfer it to each new device as I get them. I know I shouldn't have to do this and MS should have a better more reliable alarm system, but for a one time charge of 12 bucks I have peace of mind and no. more dickin' with the damn oem alarm. It's worth it IMHO.

SKTools did not work. My alarm still goes off at 5:20am. Anyone have any ideas on how to make this turn off?

What has worked for me in the past is to delete all existing timers, do a soft reset, then re-create them. In your case, I'd be tempted to change the timer, then delete it, then reset and re-enable.

What do you mean delete the existing timers? Where do I delete them?
I use my old Nokia N70 just because it's so pathetic that HTC or MS (don't know whose fault it is) can't fix a proper alarm.

Perhaps I confused you by calling the alarms 'timers'. Here's how to delete them:
Start, Settings, Clock & Alarms, Alarms tab.
To delete a previously set alarm, uncheck the checkbox, and de-select days of the week. Click Ok. Do a soft reset.
In my experiance, this will remove duplicate alarms as well.
I've tried that with the exception of removing all of the checked days of the week. I will try that and see what happens. Thanks.
OK, I just discovered this...
The text under the big clock in Home tab of TF3D always says 'Alarm off'!!
I have been messing around with the manila files and testing stuff so I thought it was me that had done it...
So I did a hard reset... and it's still says 'alarm off' even if I set the alarm..!
Anyone else got this?
hey
I wondered about this for a while - for instance today (friday) mine says alarm off but i have one set for every weekday - sunday night the alarm off will change to alarm on - i think it has a 12 hour refresh.
Yeh, Mine only says alarm is on if it is sceduled to go off the next day.
Ok I figured it out ...
It will only show the alarm time if there is an alarm within 24 hours...
Stupid! WTF! I did a hard reset for nothing..Arghh
can someone help me with this please?
for some reason, my Tilt alarms at 8:10 and 8:15pm every night
the alarms are not set for this time. I first noticed this when I changed the time to daylights saving
has anyone else had weird thing like this?
or is there something I am missing here? and how can i fix it?
thanks so much in advance!
I got the same problem PLUS i have two extra alarms that go off at 6pm and 630pm even though I dont have my alarms set at that time!
I'm glad I'm not the only one!!! I thought I was going crazy. The only added info I can give is that I set an alarm last Saturday night for Sunday morning - DST change weekend. I set it for 7am - thinking the clock would change time overnight (it did) and alarm me at 7am NEW time.
I got an alarm at 6am (new time) and again at 7 (the one that was actually set). All week since, it's been going off every morning at 6am. I've disabled ALL alarms, and it still goes off. I've tried changing the time to 5:59am, and letting it tick through 6am - it will not go off then.
If anyone has any answers, I'd be much obliged to hear them - before tomorrow at 6am

Sounds like there are extra notifications in the notifications queue. I had a similar problem on my 8125 once. Get Memmaid (the trial should work just fine) and do a memory cleaning and go into the notifications queue and delete all duplicates. If that does not solve it, look in the queue and look for an alarm at 6am and delete it. That should take care of it I think. Good luck.
interesting program thanks for the tip! I did a memory cleaning and then went into the notification queue. I couldn't find a 6am (or anything that resembled that) entry, but I did select "time based", "classic time based" and "event based" and asked it to "rebuild notification queue" - I'll let you know sometime after 6am tomorrow if it worked. Thanks again!
Windows Alarm
I gave up on Windows Alarm a long time ago. I now use G-Alarm. Its a very good program and its free. If your having issues with your alarm use G-Alarm.

That'd be fine if I could get rid of the CURRENT alarms
Clearing the Clocks
Try SKTools. It can clear the alarm cache. Also G-Alarm fixes the Windows Alarm bug. and in the options can override the windows alarm system. Give it a shot.
Have you checked to see if there are any appointments saved that reoccur on your pc that transferred when you sync ? I know that if you set a scheduled appointment, you will also get an alarm as a reminder.
I personally use Chronos for an alarm, but this (and a few other posts ;-) ) are off topic what the OP is asking.
It *has* to be in the notifications, so look through them carefully.
as far as i can tell
there are only 3 spots for alarms...and there are no other notifications or reminders for anything else, especially not for the same time every freaking day at that same time
its killing me slowly inside...

I downloaded Memmaid. I did the memory cleaning like you suggested and that fixed it. I'm no longer awakened at 6am. THANK YOU! I looked in the notification queue but couldn't find duplicates of anything... but the cleaning bit seems to have fixed it. Thanks again!
Received the P4XL yesterday and set it up. Put up an alarm in the morning but the phone crashed in the night and no alarm ring in the morning.
the phone Was half alive, App drawer worked but wasnt able to start any apps (only Black or blank screen). After reboot all the missed alarms showed up.
Anyone else noticed something like this?
I've had this happen with my Pixel 3 and other phones.
It doesn't even have to be a crash, it can be as simple as a reboot. It seems that Android's alarm scheduling doesn't kick in until the phone is first unlocked after a restart, so if anything causes your phone to restart overnight, no alarm. I've been late for work more than once because of this.
Samsung phones in particular let you schedule a weekly automatic restart for maintenance purposes; on all my Samsungs I have to make sure to schedule it for a night where I never need to have an alarm go off the next morning.
I have also had bugs with Do Not Disturb blocking alarms even though I set it not to. It's rare, but it happens.
I have been using phones as my alarm clock for years, but it's always a bit of a gamble. So many things can go wrong.
Hi all,
My alarm keeps going off at the same time even though I've turned it off. I'm the clock settings all alarms are off. I think an old alarm might have been restored drum backup from my Samsung account when I first got the phone. Is there a way to disable the rogue alarm. Please help as I really don't want to factory reset the phone.
Thanks!!
Can anyone help with this. I reset all settings and it still goes off.
Did you try to just clear the data and cache of the Clock/Alarm app and start over again with the app?

Does the alarm provide any context? Like what it's for? Can you take a screenshot next time it goes off? Also, go to recent apps as soon as you snooze the alarm and see what process called the alarm. If it's the clock app, you have to dig into it and find the alarm.
Next time the alsrm goes off, don't dismiss it. Snooze it instead and try finding the process that triggered it.
Give us some more info brother, so we can try to figure this out...
it should go away after you clear cache and data for the clock app
Maybe it's a different clock app. See if you've installed another one

You have a ghost alarm too?
Hi all,
My alarm continues going off at the equal time despite the fact that i've grew to become it off. I'm the clock settings all alarms are off. I suppose an antique alarm could haveKodi nox been restored drum backup from my Samsung account after I first were given the smartphone. Is there a way to disable the rogue alarm. Please assist as I absolutely do not want to manufacturing facility reset the telephone.
Thanks!!
Mine does this, but with work.. At least 5 of them go off at around 6am... lol. Jokes aside though.
Have you guys checked your calendar app? Maybe you've accidentally set an event that goes off every day? Or something went wrong with the Google/Samsung account sync or whatever its called and its created an event for every day.
A good choice is the Wooden Digital Alarm Clock with Wireless Charging from JALL. The fact that it can set three alarms at once makes me very happy. As a result, I don't have to rely on just one person to set the alarm for my partner and myself.
Clear system cache.
If it persists use Device Care>memory to try to spot it. If you know what time it goes off, hit Clean Now a minute or two before it goes off and see what loads.
SOLVED for me. This was driving me nuts as well. My S20 goes off every 6 a.m. Investigated and it turns out there is this "new" feature called Modes and Routines. Go to Settings > Modes and Routines > Sleep (or other mode set) > Turn on Automatically > Sleep Schedule. Long press the schedule and delete it. You can probably set it for a later time or play around with the sleep settings, but deleting it entirely works.
SOLVED....I was having the same issue, when I got my Galaxy Watch 5 and set my morning alarm for work during the week, some how a 5am alarm got set to go off during the weeknds. I went into settings and then went to modes and routines and turned off the automatic alarm and that fixed the issue
