One of the things I like about the Galaxy Gear is the wake up alarm notification, set the alarm on my Note 3 and it triggers the alarm also on the Gear. The vibrate function is a nicer way to wake and you can dismiss or snooze the alarm from the Gear. Just in case my Note battery runs out overnight, I've been trying to get a stand-alone alarm onto the Gear with vibrate function as a backup.
ZDclock - app in Samgsung Gearmanager. Tried but found the alarm trigger on Gear to be very unreliable. it often misses the set time and only triggers when you hit the home button. Wonder is this a refresh issue, often when I hit home button to check time, it momentarily shows an older time before updating to current?
I've also tried the D-Day app which allows you to set alarm reminders but I still get the same issue - alarm often delayed, late or only goes when I switch on screen.
Anyone had similar issues and resolved, or got a working reliable stand-alone alarm app with vibrate on their gear. I've tried with both stock and null rom, same issue.

Hallo,
I seem to have the following problem with WM5.
it happens sometimes that the alarm rings, however the notification message does not appear and I can't turn the alarm off. So it keeps ringing a lot of time, even if I disable alarms and notifications. If I turn off the volume (which is not a solution anyway) it still vibrates. Also, the red light in the upper right corner keeps on flashing. Soft resetting the device doesn't solve the problem: after reloading, the alarm is still ringing.
I have 3 alarms that are set to ring at an interval of 10 minutes, like 7 am, 7.10 am, 7.20 am.
It looks like this happen when the third alarm rings and the device is turned off.
Has anyone experienced the same problems?
any clue?
thanks
Is anyone else experiencing these bugs?
This usually happens after an alarm has went off or if i have not noticed that one has been going off.
* The bottom speaker just turns off, no sound is received. So i'll get a phone call and i answer but no one can hear me, reboot fixes the issue but wtf.
* just 10 min ago the alarm went off to remind me of something and i hit dismiss and the phone went back to the main tiles. I tried to lock the phone and it didn't do anything. I hit the back button and nothing happened, i then try to navigate and the screen is frozen. Live tiles are still moving but no input is read. The power button doesn't work as well, i had to pull the battery.
Anyone have these problems?
I have the same issue about the alarm. I have multiple alarm setup and then if one of them alarms go off and i didn't turn it off the screen just froze, there is no input from the touchscreen but the tiles are working. I guess it is a bug in the programming that disables the touchscreen if the alarm that goes off wasn't turn off.
Hopefully this is fixed with the rumored update on thursday.
Alarm Bug
+1 with the alarm bug. Hope the software update fixes the poor sound level as well, as a working alarm would be nice but a working alarm that i can hear is much better
+1
Same problem
I use Nokia X2 for alarm clock
Alarm Problems
I use an app called Nightstand clock from the Marketplace. The sound of the alarm tones is much louder than wp7 alarm tones. Give it a try it hasn't let me down yet & more importantly has never froze. It can even run under the lockscreen. It hasn't affected the sound on my HD7 either.
Well i have the same problem and for now i download alarm clock 7 and only works if the phone its not lock cause in lock status the alarm does not sound.
I also have this problem
alarm goes off, and if i don't hit dismiss and let it run, the mic gets turned off
grrr
+1, i am also having the same issue
+1, i am also having the same issue. :laugh:
I have HTC HD7
Hi everyone,
I just bought the watch and I was wondering if there is an application that wake you up with the vibration of the watch.
Almost very bands have this functionnality, it analyses your sleep and wake you up at the best moment.
Do you know if this watch could do it?
Thanks
Sleep as Android claims to have this functionality, but can not figure out how to get it to vibrate on the watch instead of my phone.
Did you try setting an alarm on the watch?

If you set an alarm on the watch, it will vibrate the watch at the alarm time.
Try
"Ok Google
Set an alarm for 8am"
To stop the alarm (as by default it sets it for every day going forward), you'll need
"OK Google
Show alarms"
Hey !
Yes I found out this application couple days ago.
After you sync the app with your watch, it will automaticaly use it to wake you up.
But there is a big delay between the phone and watch.
The vibration on the watch starts 45 second after, and it will decrease time between 2 vibrations.

Hello,
same problem here. Yesterday connected the new phone and there is no possibility to cancel or snooze the ongoing alarm directly from the Gears S3, like this was possible on my Galaxy S7. Any chance this works only with Samsung phones? Can someone confirm that?
I have also tried installing the native Google Clock, same result. And yes, all other notifications from the phone are shown immediately on the watch.
I didn't know or even remember that the phones alarm shows in the gear S3 at all. Why don't you just set an alarm in the watch itself?

Setting an alarm on the watch itself would also be a possibility, but I do not always wear it at night, sometimes it is charging in the other room. That is why I like to keep my alarms "central" on the phone, and when the alarm goes off its just more convenient to silent the alarm via the Gear without reaching for the phone. Its just an extra feature I am missing now.
My Samsung Watch 3 has started waking me with a 06.35hrs alarm on random mornings. I have not set this alarm and there is no evidence of it shown on the watch alarm settings.
I am at a loss as to how I can stop this alarm from waking me fast too early.
