Hi guys need some help. I have 2 nexus 6. When I set an alarm, the first phone will show the usually alarm dismissal screen from my locked screen. Meaning I can swipe left to snooze and swipe right to dismiss.
However, my second nexus 6 doesn't have that. When the alarm goes off I have to go into the clock app, select alarm tab and select the particular alarm to switch it off.
How can I get the same alarm dismissal screen as the first nexus 6?
BTW. I'm on all stock. No changes.

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,

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.
When I set up my alarm in the morning, its ringing but the alarm screen is not popping up so, in order to dismiss it, I must open it from the upper menu, tap on bell icon and only then it pops up and I can dismiss it. Any way, registry change, to make the alarm screen pop up on the main screen while initially ringing in the morning? Thanks
That happens when the device turns off(after N minutes). When you turn it on again the popup window gets hidden and the only way to restore it is doing what you mention...
i do not find an option to dismiss the alarm if i wake up early. The only option is to turn off the recurring alarm. There is a notification which shows up a minute before the alarm sounds to dismiss it.
In oneplus that notification would show up an hour before the alarm sounds and could easily be dismissed without affecting the recurring alarm.
Is there any setting to allow me to dismiss the alarm for the day rather than turning it off?
I am currently using the stock clocck app. Thanks.
You can use Alarm Clock Xtreme, which has the option "Skip next".

Will check out. Thanks
I am using the alarm clock: Alarm Clock Plus.
When the phone screen is off, the alarm opens full screen so I can interact with it. When the phone is in use, I get a notification bar that I have to click in order to open the alarm clock. I would like to eliminate the notfvication bar. I've checked the settings for the app and am left thinking that it's some feature of the OS. Can someone tell me how to change this functionality?

Have you asked the Alarm Clock Plus developer?
I sent an email, but have heard nothing back yet.
