after searching the forum, googling and trying many suggestions without success, a solution to resurrect the reminder and alarm is finally found (for my case).
Winmob 6.1
ROM version: 2.11.Gen.Y WWE (R4.4)
Radio: 1.09.25.23
I reproduced the problem as follows:
* go to settings > personal > sounds & notification. check that the selection "Programs" and "Notifications (alarms, reminders) are ticked
* set an appointment with reminder/alarm 3 minutes from now
* go to standby by pressing power button and wait 5 minutes. check whether alarm rings
* if no, go to setting > personal > sounds & notification and tick the "Events (warnings, system events)"
* recreate an appointment with reminder/alarm 3 minutes from now
* go to standby by pressing power button and wait 5 minutes. check whether alarm rings (it rang in my case)
In order to confirm that the problem is caused by the option "Events (warnings, system events)" you could again untick the option and test the alarm
My dear friend, I am writing only to say you a BIG THANK YOU! I was having problems with the notifications and hard reseted serveral times. I wasn´t able to discover which program was creating this conflict with the notifications alarm, but this simple suggestion solved my problem also.
Thanks!

Hey,
I also had the problem with appointment reminders not working and I've found it's problem with the latest version of G-Alarm. First I thought it was problem with one rom, but I reflashed and again and the problem was still there. But when I didn't install the latest version of G-Alarm but the one before (before the redesign) the reminders work again like a charm.
Thread moved to General.

I cannot delete old alarms: even if they are not present in the Clock & Alarm utility, they are triggered every day, and on wrong times!
Please help me!
Thanks in advance
I think SKTools has something to fix this sort of thing. There is a database of "wakeup" events that needs tidying up.
To clean notification queue:
Disable all clock alarms
Using sktools - delete all events with \windows\clock.exe
But this will only clean notification queue. Bug still exists
Tried this. Used sktools, also used memmaid. Notifications are gone, but when you reboot device, all are back. Any new suggestions?
Don't reboot the device and they won't go away. The device is not meant to be reset -- doing so will prevent data from getting properly written back to memory.
Hi all,
I had a problem last night where i was testing out the alarm feature. It went off and a small dialogue box popped up and the left button stated 'dismiss', i clicked somewhere other than those areas and then the alarm bell icon went away and the alarm had entered snooze mode - it kept going off every minute or something and there was no way to turn it off.
can anyone shed some light on this if the icon disappears?
also how can i change the alarm tone? going into the sounds and notifications option i get:
''Enable sounds for:
- Events
- Programs:
--Notifications (alarms, reminders)
- Screen taps
- Hardware buttons''
on the second tab called notifications
theres options for ''Event'' allowing to choose an event to assign a sound for it. Theres no Even called alarm or notification but there is one for Reminders. I changed the reminders tone but still that didnt change the alarm tone that went off.
seems the alarm hasnt had much focus during implementation.
thanks,
simba
Change the alarm tone directly on the Clock & Alarms screen. Just tap the little yellow bell thing.
perfect thanks! i didnt know the wee bells were selectable for more features.
anyone else know the solution to the other query?

the exact same thing happened to me too. feels like another bug.
I have an alarm set to wake me up in the morning. The phone is set to ask for an unlock code, so over night the lock sets.
In the morning when the alarm goes off, there is no way to dismiss it. First I have to thumble with the dark keypad to try and enter a code, then I have to try and press that little alarm icon at the top of the screen, then the screen changes to the large task bar icons, then I press the alarm icon, and then, finally the balloon comes up so I can dismiss the bloody alarm.
Its a great thing though as I am fully awake by the time I've finished messing with it, but then I am grumpy for the whole morning.
How can I get a dismiss/snooze alarm option on the locked screen like I get with WM 5?
Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications choose the notification tab and in the "Event" drop down window, choose "Reminders"
You should see an option "Display message on screen" tick it.
Should be able to see the "Dismiss" button now when the alarm goes off.
Don't know if this is already "fixed" in the newest rom version but i did this back when running on the old rom and works fine.
Hi,
I have the XDA Diamond with the standard O2 ROM (Germany) and a problem with the alarm clock. I didnt find a solution in this forum or the instructions of the device, so heres the problem: I can turn the alarm on and it works perfectly fine. But theres no option to turn it off except decrasing the volume till zero, but it doesnt ring at all after that (whats not very good when I fall asleep after this). The second thing is, that I am searching for some kind of snooze option, I had this option on all other alarm clocks on my previous cellphones. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot,
Hannes

Download this, an "upgraded" version of the diamond alarmclock, very easy-to-use, and many options to choose for snoozing, turning it off and such. I use it every morning

Well, are you sure there's no option ?
Touch the screen on the icon bar (top of the screen) when the alarm is on, select the alarm icon : you should have the alarm menu, with de-actiovation, snooze and all. And to have directly the notification, go parameters, sounds & notifications, notifications, select "reminders" in the dropdown menu and check "show message on screen" (or maybe that's not the actual text, my diamond is in french). And this has been answered many times, if it was your problem ^^

maybe you have this problem when the alarm box does not pop up even though you have selected onscreen notification?

Hello all,
I have noticed the following issues.
1. When using the built in Android alarm in conjunction with automatic "do not disturb" rules, the alarms only works for a couple of days. After that, it will not go off. I must turn off and then back on to get the alarm to sound in the morning.
2. When I use the huawei alarm in conjunction with automatic " do not disturb" rules, the alarm will never sound. If I unlock the phone, then the alarm will go off. I have ensured that priority notification was wet in the alarm settings and from the app menu.
If I "must" wake up, for example for a flight or something, it is impossible to trust the P20 Pro. I need to fire up my old iphone to make sure my alarm goes off. The last flight I had last week, the iphone saved me because the P20 wasn't interested in sounding the alarm.
Anyone else have these issues?
Yes I have the same issue! Very annoying
Kinda disappointed as I thought I've found the perfect phone
I have to make sure my DND mode ends before my alarm to make it work. The alarm override option in DND does not work
Fixed!!!
Go to Settings > Apps & Notification > Apps > Clock > Notifications
And turn on "Priority Display"
Now it works!
Your DND setting must be Priority. Doesn't work with alarm only.
