not sure if this was always the case with the S5 since I switched from an S4 on Sprint, but my alarm clock has been set to 7:14am during the weekdays and what I've noticed is that it will actually go off at the time set PLUS the snooze amount. So the default snooze time is "5 minutes, 3 times" and what happens is the alarm actually goes off at 7:19 despite the alarm setting saying 7:14am! I've verified this several times thinking that in my sleepy state I must have pressed snooze, but I haven't! The weird thing is if I set the alarm for that day, it goes off as usual. If I set the alarm for the next day or later, this issue happens. Anyone else notice this or am I missing something in one of the settings?
no one uses snooze?? what I noticed is that if I don't use the snooze option, the alarm goes off exactly when it should. the issue I'm having is if I have the snooze option set, the alarm doesn't go off until after the time specified in snooze. what makes it even weird is that this happens ONLY if the alarm is set to go off a day later. if I set it to go off say half an hour from now as a test, it works fine!!

Is there a way of turning my phone off at night as it charges and have my alarm clock set to a time lets say 9 Am. And at 9AM my phone will turn on and alarm will ring? is there any program or way of doing this.. thanks!
it sounds like you don't want to be bothered with late night annoying calls and text messages. some phones if you set the alarm and turn the phone off the alarm will wake up the phone and in return wake you up as well. not the raphael. so take this approach.
Set your alarm for whatever time you want to wake up. Then go to your 'Settings Tab' and click 'Phone Off'. Why do this?
- it's going to save all of the text messages you receive at night
- it will let you have full function outside of your internet and receiving/calling ability
- your phone is actually off to everyone else but you. its like your invisible.
hope that helps
So I'm pretty sure this happened and I wasn't dreaming.
I set my alarm for 6:30am. When it goes off, sometimes the screen will wake and gives me choices to snooze or cancel the alarm. However, sometimes the screen just stays sleep. I have to press the power button to make the screen come on.
Anyone have this happen?
Stock and rooted. Only frozen app is tether manager.
You must have been dreaming. Nah just kidding! This happens to me all the time. At first I also taught I was dreaming. It's funny how tech can mess with us and make us question our sanity, hehe.
I have one alarm programmed to repeat Every Weekday (Mon-Fri) and another one set to repeat Weekly on Saturdays and Sundays. The only times that my display has turned on for both alarms is when I wake up before the alarm and use the phone (check emails, etc. before turning the display back off). I think that this doesn't happen when the Note is charging, but if the phone has finished charging before the alarm goes off the display will not turn on with the alarm. Something is definitely causing the display to stay asleep when the alarm goes off. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this issue. Is it a flaw in the alarm clock, the Note, or some if there is some app messing with the alarm clock? Maybe a factory reset could fix it but I haven't given it a try. I'm on a stock Gingerbread non rooted i717.
If you find a solution to this problem, please share it.
Same to you. Glad I wasn't dreaming. lol
Alarm stops after 1 minute. That's really a deal breaker, because 1 minute is very brief, and it made me not wake up, first because of my biological system (that is hard to wake up) and second the brief sound that didn't have time to wake me up.
- XXELKC. Does anyone have some knowledge about this?
+1.....
Set loads of alarms five minutes apart, or use a different alarm app. Surely you can come up with some solution.
My biggest gripe with the alarm after coming from the one x is that there isn't an icon to show that you're snoozing and deactivate when you get up, although I now use the 4.2 alarm which seems to do the trick.

so recently ive been having trouble with alarm clocks sticking with their settings. at first i was using alarm clock plus, and waking up to a custom playlist, but after a while, AC+ kept deleting my playlist and going straight to a blaring alarm to wake me up. so i uninstalled that and went with alarm clock xtreme. exact same thing happened, and i noticed that every morning for xtreme, it would delete whatever playlist i had set up, work for a day, and then delete again.
any ideas on how i might fix this?
Does anyone else have the issue that I found to have this morning? Put my daily alarm on my watch as per usual, and put the watch into movie mode (so it doesnt keep turing on all the time when asleep - or trying to sleep!), and no alarm will go off. Even once only set alarms will just dissapear at the set time.
I have also alarm wich do not fire. And the new defaut alarm in V5 are "one shot". So do not fire and are erased at schedule time because is "one shot". So Wear BUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
It's quite annoying but found a way around it. Use the wear app on your phone to turn off screen and turn off tilt to wake screen. Alarm still goes off ok.
