I'm using the inbuilt alarm clock.
custom sound, I've set the volume button to stop the alarm option but when the alarm goes off, I have to swipe the screen to stop the alarm
The volume buttons don't have any effect.
Am I missing something really obvious here?
swiping when I've just woken up isn't what I want to do, I grab the phone and can feel the button whilst I'm still half asleep, focusing on the screen without my glasses to swipe isn't possible.
Check Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb > Alarms and Other Interruptions
Or
Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb > Schedules > the setting for the Schedule > Do Not Disturb Behaviour

Thanks, The alarm is still the same.
It goes off and makes noise, but the volume button doesn't disable it

Go to the Clock app and settings. Scroll down to Alarms > Volume Buttons. There are three settings there: Control Volume (of the alarm I assume), Stop, and Snooze. I have it set to snooze.
That's exactly what I've done, but the buttons don't snooze / stop the alarm

I tested it earlier with timers and it works and then tested with the clock alarm and it does not. So I'm guessing this is a bug?

Thank you! At least it's not just me.
When the alarm goes off just say stop. The google assistant will recognize the word and stop the alarm. LIkewise, if you want it to snooze, say snooze. I know it's not the answer to your question but this works. What could be easier? You don't even have to pick up the phone.
Hi,
I have also configured my previous phones so that the volume button stops the alarm - so I wanted to test this.
I tested 5 times and on 3 occasions, the volume button stopped the alarm. On all 3 occasions the screen was locked and the alarm slider popped up on the screen. I pressed the Vol Up and it stopped.
On the 2 other occaasions, the screen was not locked - I was actively using it and instead of the slider I got a popup window with a stop button. The Volume buttons just changed the volume and did not stop the alarm.

Problem: i set my alarm clock and phone only vibrate. I have chect everiting i know. Please help?
Get the free app 'Volume Control' from market and check the bottom slider 'Alarm Volume'. That might help
or just when your inside the current alarm, press "alarm sound" and once inside press the volume buttons on the side of your hero to adjust the alarm volume.

Txn, problem solved.
I set the alarm clock for waking me up. Every morning when it rings, I pick up my phone and the rings stop and it snooze for 10 mins AUTOMATICALLY. Any body have the same issue. Anyone knows how to solve it? Thankyou very much.
What do you mean snooze automatically ? I Also put alarm everyday & when it rings i down unlock screen once so, it won't snooze anymore .. but if you click on snooze button than again it will snooze automatically also you can change snooze settings from alarm menu ..

That's means I just pick up my phone without touching anythings but it stops ringing and snooze automatically. Do you understand now? Thankyou very much.
Oh Got it .. well, i never had this kind of problem.
Hello,
did anyone figure out, how to adjust the volume of the original alarm clock?
It is terrible to get woken up by such a high volume... I can't figure out how to adjust it. There is no menu in the alam clock app as on the default android app, pressing the volume buttons inside the alarm clock only adjust ring volume... no way to set it in settings, notification volume also doesn't affect the alarm volume level.
Any clues?
best,
sunnnny
try with AudioManager. You can find it in the market
I replaced my original alarm clock with "Alarm Klock" - much more customisable and can set the volume to a percentage of the notification volume as well as fading it up. You can also alter your snooze length - which is perfect as I like mine at 7 mins!

AudioManager adjusts the alarm volume of android - but the SE alarm clock ignored it
So - no luck. Apparently I really have to use an alternative alarm clock.
Will try "Alarm Klock" next, thanks!
Is anyone having any issues with third party clock and alarm apps? I set my alarm and it does not ring at all despite having all sound and notifications settings correct. The default clock and alarm app work fine but I would really like to wake up to a song/music I choose.
Any possible fix/solutions?

I just got an p9000 and have the same problem .. I´ve tried to add the app (tried a few, used to run Gentle Alarm) to the white list, but it makes no difference ...
I even tried to use the Gentle Alarm "night display" to keep the display on, but still no alarm ...
(would´nt be a problem, unless all the stock alarm sounds are so hideous)
Any ideas?
edit: clicked on the "lamp" button in Gentle Alarm, that says "keep display on", and the night display, that worked! Kind of annoying to have the screen on through the night, but I did wake up to my favorite song!
There were a slew of notifications on my phone earlier, and I just hit the "clear" button at the bottom to make them all go away. Turns out one of them was for an upcoming alarm I had set and didn't notice, and apparently clearing the notification dismissed the alarm so it never went off. (I'm running the standard google "clock" app since I'm used to it, not the samsung clock app).
Any way to prevent an app notification from being cleared? Any way to remove the "clear" button from the notifications? Any better clock app that doesn't have this problem and also functions correctly with snooze mode?
