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.

Hello!
I have an XDA, and lately it has started crashing every single morning, but only in the mornings. I use it throughout every day and never have any problems except between 9am to 12. It never crashes during the night, always wakes me in the morning, always works on the way to my job, but it first crashes at some time between 9am and 10.30, when I turn it on it immediately shows the boot screen. It must be crashing before 10.30 because I have a system alarm set for 10.30 and I never hear it (I'm just using the standard PPC alarm program with the standard alarm sound). I used to always hear my 10.30 alarm, but a few weeks ago it has crashed every day. Then, it usually crashes at least once more time between 10.30 and 12. (I don't have any alarms set to occur during that time).
The obvious question is - have I installed any new software lately? - and the answer - unfortunately not, no new software, I wish I had because that would be a simple solution! Also I don't leave programs running in the background. I finally decided to upgrade to WM2003 since I heard it was more stable, but after doing that I still have the same exact problem!
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Hi,
When u say crash, what do you mean?
At one stage, all of a sudden, my xda decided to lock up. Even on soft reboot, it would take forever to boot, and flash the backlight on and off intermittently. I noticed that it would not pick up the radio version number etc, on the boot screen.
The only thing i could do was to hard boot it. I did this several times, each time the problem came back after some time. On the third time, it was cured?!
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.
Night clock freeze and dont show real time after 2 hours
When i wake up screen it show again correct hour
Is there a solution for that
I am on 6.0.1 full stock
No one can help?
At last someone with the same problem as me. Have you solved this yet?
Don't use Night Clock but I think the root cause must be the new Doze feature on Marshmallow, remember that it closes everything after some hours to save battery. So if you can find what is the name of the apk package related to the Night Clock feature, you can go to Battery settings, and then click on the 3-Dots menu on the top right hand corner and then disable optimization on that apk package, I have a feeling it might be "Edge Screen" try disabling Doze on it first.

Not me. It can't be doze related because doze doesn't work while charging... does it?
Night clock freeze
I had the same problem with my galaxy s6 edge. I solved it by uninstalling the update that had occurred with edge screen. Go to application manager then more then show system apps then edge screen then uninstall update. It asks if you want it to uninstall the update and return to the factory state. Once uninstalled it says that cocktailbar service has been uninstalled. The freezing no longer happens. I do remember an update message telling me cocktail bar service had been updated quite a while ago but I thought nothing of it.

Hi Mark,
I thought I had solved this problem but it appears I haven't.
The only way I can stop the night clock turning off "freezing" during the night is by disabling access to the internet by putting into flight mode or not having WiFi such as when I'm away from home.
The freezing usually occurs between 2am to 4am depending on what time I put the phone down for the night by my bedside.
It is almost as if something interupts it by checking for updates or something like that.
Do you have a solution yet?
So far no software updates seem to have solved it.
Kind Regards

I turned sync off the other night and it was fine all night. Tried it again a second night and it froze again. Thought I had found a work around but sadly not. Reported several times to samsung but still no acknowledgement or fix.
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.
