Hey guys,
I have been running this version of DCD's ROM for a very long time now basically because it has worked well and been stable for me, but the other day I noticed an anoying thing happen that I wonder if anyone has seen and maybe solved. I use my unit as my primary alarm clock and have set 1 of the 3 alarms to 9:00PM to get me up for work, another for 9:00AM for a daily conferance call, and the 3rd for 10:00PM to be sure I do not sleep too late for work. From time to time I have changed times and text titles for the alarms and all worked well until the other day when I set it to go off at 2M just for 1 day to get remind me of a phone call I had to make, which it did nicely, but then when I changed that alarm back to it's old settings it assumed the identity and time I set for it, but now every day at 2:00PM that alarm still goes off and I can not make it stop doing that because the entry is no longer there. Also I told it to stop the 9:00PM work wakeup alarm and it still goes off at 9:00PM even if I set that entry totally different. I have even shut off all alarms and set the sound to another sound, but still they persist. I have looked in the registry and found the clock utility and where it stores the 3 alarms and they change like they are supposed t, and there is no listings for these rouge alarms anywhere in the entire registry. Anyone seen this ?????? Thanks. I will continue to tweak on it and let yoy know if I find or fix it.
Are you running Home Customizer? This happened to me about two months ago and I re-installed the HC and the mystery alarms went away.

I wanted to see if this is a common issue. My Touch Pro has done this a few times so I know it has to be some sort of glitch and not just a one time fluke. I wake up to find my phone with the ring lit up solid (indicating full charge), but the phone will not turn on so I have to reset it. This is a problem because I use it as my alarm clock and it is just freezing at random. It does not freeze at all throughout the day.
Any help or enlightenment on this problem is greatly appreciated!
Are you using something like G-Alarm or the standard alarm on the phone? Also are you using S2U2? If so could be a setting in there.
my phone does this occasionally too without any alarms or anything set...
I have s2u2 installed, but not in use. I use Klaxon for the alarm which also sets the standard alarm for the phone. I use it every night, but it only freezes on occassion.

Not too familar with that one, I use G-alarm which is pretty nice and it works with the standard alarm too and is pretty friendly with the HTC Touch Pro and Diamond IMO. I have never had my TP freeze using this alarm.
Mine does that if there is a bluetooth capable pc on in the same room at night. Strange thing. I just disable bluetooth on my pc and my phone stopped freezing.
Thanks, I'll try switching alarms and see if that helps. I doubt it will do much since I use Klaxon every night and it does not freeze that often.
Hmmm...the bluetooth thing is definitely weird. I rarely have bluetooth turned on on my phone, and I always shut down my computer at night. Did your phone do this even when bt was not on?
Mine does it also and I don't even use the alarm. (Verizon TP)
me too
i have had this happen and so has my girlfriend both sprint touch pro.
she uses the stock alarm i dont use the alarm at all
its only when charging overnight and only about once every 2 months
also we both dont have blue tooth active
i always assumed it was a random wm error
same issue with 6800
I had the same issue with my 6800 (I get the 6850 next week). It turns out that it was some conflict with my podcast software. When it was plugged in and trying to do an auto download it would freeze. I changed settings on how often it checked the net and bingo, the problem stopped.
I think some people have resolved this issue, by going into Today settings and under the Items tab unchecking the Today timeout.
Thanks, I have changed the setting. I will give it a little while and see if the problem persists. Thanks again for your help.
Ive heard of this happening on my ROM as well. It happaned to me once.... And it was on a stock ROM when it did. Dont know if there is a fix.
well so far so good....changed the today timeout under today screen settings, and the phone has not had the issue yet. I will update again after a little more time passes.
I also have this problem on the Verizon TP. I use G-alarm. The problem first happened after I set Sprite for automatic backup at 3 AM, so I thought it was related to that. I stopped automatic backup and went two weeks without a night time freeze, but this morning it happened again. I have just unchecked the Today timeout as suggested here, hopefully that helps. Does anybody have any more to report on the effectiveness of this fix?
No luck with the Today timeout check box. I unchecked on May 8, I once again had the TouchPro freeze while on charge overnight last night. Worked fine for 6 days then the problem recurred. Any other ideas?
this happened to me as i woke up this morning. i am using a far from stock setup with the rom thats listed in my sig & a bunch of other things. i would have a real hard time narrowing this down with all the extras i have going. but i would def like to figure it out. so i'm bumping this to keep people posted.
thanks guys
TP freeze
I am having the same freezing issue. It mostly happens over night while charging but it has happened during the day as well. hopefully someone finds the issue.
having the same problem here. Sprint on MightyRom 4.1x.
I only charge the phone from the AC brick. About once every couple weeks I come downstairs to a locked up phone.
1. set an alarm time at 7:00 am or whatever time in the morning at night before you go to bed.
2. when the alarm set off at the set time, do not touch it until a quite long time later, let's say, 9:00am.
3. then start the phone, try to slide the hood up using your finger. you can move it up, however it can sometimes only moves to halfway of the screen or completely. but either way, then you get it frozen there.
4. to use the phone you have to switch it off and restart it again although luckily WP7 starts up quite faster than those using WM6.5.
ps: in my case, i set the alarm at 8:30 am, but i didn't do anything when it alarmed until it became quiet itself. when i tried to use it at about 10:00am, it froze. until it happened to me quite a few times i realised that it could be a bug of it. it happens even after i did the hard reset.
by the way the ROM is from Orange, UK.
same here, every morning the alarm does not wake me up then when i wake up at look at the phone its frozen. and im guessing if i call orange they will ask me to hard reset the phone, lose all my settings and apps ( thatn sounds so iphone,....apps) for the problem to continue!!!! any one else want a rant about this problem.
no problem with mine
alarm set to 5:30am, 6:30am, 7:00am
and its orange uk too
works very ok
use it everyday

Please try to do the same as i said using only one alarm time in my post instead of three times. And if interested, try the procedures in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845321, too. Many thanks.
Actually: here's my whole story... kind of a lil different experience for me...
Scenario 1:
Created three alarms, each one 15 minutes apart... they helped me in walking up and i would click the dismiss button and such... but most of the time, even though the phone worked without any problems, NO AUDIO! Even when i played any song on the phone or got a call or anything... Plus, the Power button only unlocked but never shut-down the phone so had to take out the battery to reset... A few times though it wasn't frozen but while unlocking or going into a hub or something, it would end up freezing.
Scenario 2:
Disabled one of the alarms and by the time i wake up, i usually find the phone frozen and unresponsive... Sometimes it would work but same problem as before, no audio at all....
Scenario 3:
Only one alarm enabled now every noon ('coz i wake up at 1:00 PM), i always find the phone frozen and have to reset...!
Scenario 4:
No Alarms enabled! Phone works SUPER DUPER FRICKIN' AWESOME!!!! Well the only time i usually do end up resetting is when Marketplace crashes out on me and doesn't start back up (which has really happened only once in a while)
--------------------------------------------
Call me crazy but despite this annoying bug i'm really loving my Mozart!
Not sure if this is a HTC issue (most-likely) but I do hope that these issues are ironed out in the January/February updates!!! Keeping my fingers crossed...
Regards.

been using my alarms ok just changed to the 3 alarms be cause i always used to ignore the first sound
was not freezing when it was one
not freezing now that i have three
only frozen once on market while downloading xbox live extras
my phone works perfectly what more can i say
fantastic device
Same problem here.
I've two ararlms, set 3 min apart. if i dimiss the first alarm before the second goes off, all works fine. but if the first is not dismissed then after the second alarm i need to restart the Mozart.
Agree with others that despite all these annoying things Mozart is a great device. I wish Microsoft releases the next update asap.
Similar problems here since day 1. My issue though was caused by hitting the snooze button each time the alarm went off (instead of actually getting out or bed or hitting the dismiss button).
After about half dozen "snoozes" the phone hangs and needs the battery removed (power button will not turn the device off, screen unresponsive to touch input, only the screen can be turned on and off with the power button).
Has anyone tried to replicate the issue with "vibrate" turned off under "ringtones & sounds" settings? I've turned this off which solved some occasional sound stuttering when receiving emails or sms, and I can't say that I've noticed this alarm bug since.
Maybe worth a try?

Reading this really makes me wonder, whether there was a decent Q&A involved...
Especially, since the WP7 runs way better than WM6 (or 6.1 or 6.5) - but fails in seemingly small applications.
(My problem regarding the jump-to-letter feature in the Zune application is purely based on the German language -.- . I've set my Mozart to English - just to try it - and suddenly the letters appear correctly and allow me to jump directly to a letter (like in the contacts) in the Zune application. If the language is set to German, all letters are grey and only the "#" is active...)
I really hope that these bugs will be fixed in the next update.
(Additionally, my phone has not crashed since I stopped using the alarm clock)
I had WM 5, 6, 6.1, 6.3 and 6.5 soon WP 7
I never used the windows alarm because it freeze my devices every time.
Crazy.....
I have SPB Time it's very nice
I had set up like 8 alarms, and i have the same problem OP has.
If you don't dismiss your alarm, phone freezes when the next alarm goes.
I have T-Mobile 16GB Mozart. so it isn't orange related
I'm using my mozart every morning as an alarm clock - no problems until now. But normally I wake up and hit "dismiss".
I have a germany T-Mobile device...
Hi, I have a strange issue with the alarm widget on my AT&T Mega (stock AT&T rom with AT&T updates applied). Most of the time it works fine and I like waking up to the music however on the rare days when I know I'll actually be able to sleep in a little and change the alarm's time setting the night before (say to an hour later) it still goes off at the same time as it would have if I hadn't changed it (this has happened multiple times and last night I even checked that it was changed a couple of times before going to bed and it still went off at the original time instead of the time I'd changed it to). Has anyone else encountered this and if so is there a fix to resolve it? Thanks in advance and have a nice day.
Guys please help: I recently purcashed a LG Vista LG-D631. Within the next 24 hrs the phone was changed to 5.0.1 without my knowledge. That's when I started to notice that the sound changes to Priority, or No Interruptions automatically. Most of the time, the settings get changed at around 500am. My alarm is set for 530 am so I do not have any sound to wake up, only vibration. I have checked almost every morning, in the settings, Sound , Interruptions, and it is set to ALL, no check marks on calendar, incoming or new messages. The schedule section remains unchecked for all days of the week, and the From and To times are not highlighted. I have gone through each of my apps to determine if one of the Apps has a notification set, but none of the apps have check marks next to them. Lately I have rooted the phone, which works great, except for the NO INTERRUPTIONS that turn on by itself.
I have been searching the internet on how to change the settings with no luck. Please give some ideas.
Thanks in advance.
I have a Pixel 3 with the latest Android 10 update. When I set an alarm to 8:15 am, it goes off at 8:00 am. When I set it to 9:30 am, it goes off at 9:15 am.
This started happening recently and I have no idea what's causing it. The device is not rooted and has no customizations. It is is extremely annoying, not to mention it keeps robbing me off morning sleep time, and I'd like to fix it. Please don't suggest working around the issue by setting my alarm 15 minutes late, because if the bug disappears on its own, then I will be 15 minutes late, so I'd rather figure this out.

It seems to just be a bug within the app. Backup your current data (skipping the alarm data and settings) and try a factory data reset then restore said data

I don't know if it's related to the issue, but the screen also turns luminescent red when the morning alarm goes off. That didn't use to happen. I could have sworn I turn that option on in the settings but can't find that setting anymore.
Edit: I just remembered that setting was in the Bedtime tab, but this is not a Bedtime schedule alarm. This is a regular alarm that repeats 7 days a week, and Bedtime is turned off. Strange that the screen still goes red. For Bedtime alarms, it's supposed to start changing colors 15 minutes before the alarm, but the actual alarm is not supposed to sound off until the designated time.
My solution to this problem was to go back to the old version of the Clock app by uninstalling all updates via the Play store. I don't have the "Bedtime" tab or any other new features anymore, which is not ideal but much better than losing 15 minutes of sleep every morning.
