am completely new here and completely new to the smart phone. It's just that all my other Sony phones, the alarm worked (and calendar reminder) when the phone was switched off, to wake me up ect. Is there a way to activate this so that it will work, or does the phone have to be switched on to use this facility

According to the documentation, the alarm clock cannot fire when the telephone is switched off.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAny ideas as to what I'm doing wrong here? Sometimes (about 1 day a week), I'll set my alarm, but it will not go off. When I look at the phone, it'll have the pop-up indicator thing saying "DISMISS" or "off" (can't remember exactly what it says), that indicates that the alarm was triggered, but it doesn't actually make the alarm sound.Any ideas why this may be happening? I am 100% sure the alarm is set to the right time, and the AM/PM is correct, and the phone is not on "Silent", but the alarm won't actually ring? It doesn't do it all the time, but maybe only once every 7-10 times I set the alarm, and for the life of me, I cannot figure out why.This is a big problem for me because I don't have a regular alarm clock, and I use it to wake me up for work. Twice this month I have been late for work because my alarm didn't go off.Can anyone out there possibly help me diagnose this problem? I think my boss thinks that I'm lying to him when I tell him my alarm doesn't go off, and it's really becoming a problem.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIt seems on Nokia E71, the alarm settings are lost when an alarm is activated while the mobile is turned off.The sequence which i followed was.# set an alarm with time = current time + 5 mins# switched off the mobile# When the alarm time reaches the alarm goes on and asks "if we want to turn on the phone"; select 'no'.[My opinion is that at this stage it should just inform the user that the phone is switched off, rather than giving an option to turn on the phone.]# turn on the phone and go to Menu_office_clock and check the previous alarm settings. All of them would be deleted. I saw the same error in E72 and E63.

- Alarm was set and was shown to be in use. Even the Icon in the start screen was shown
- Tried multiple times afterwards setting the existing alarm a few minutes forward. None of the attempts alarmed.
How I set the alarm is that I always edit the existing alarm, edit the time and push the alarm on.When I tried creating a new alarm (a few minutes forward), that ringed ok. But the existing alarm failed to ring
Updated Z3+ to Marshmallow 5.0.2 and subsequently discovered (on the first day back to work) that alarms (native clock) no longer work after the phone is left overnight.

Have checked notifications, priority status, display settings etc. Have force closed, cleared cache and re-started. No success.
Â
If I test the alarm during the daytime (with normal phone usage) it works fine, the problem only occurs when the phone is left idle for extended periods.

Have spent hours on forums looking for solutions, with some references to Doze causing issues, although seemingly not with native clocks and as far as I can tell, not with Xperia devices.
When I set my alarm in the evening and turn off my phone, the phone is not able to ring the alarm in the morning. This is a problem as I use my xperia x8 as my alarm clock which in turn means that I can never turn my phone off and that I have to trust that the phone does not turn off by itself in the night (which it sometimes does) to be sure to get up in the morning if I have important meetings etc. This seems R&D wise a step back as my old sony ericsson w880i could do exactly this
View 2 Replies View RelatedI set my alarm last night and it didn't work this morning. I've tested it with the phone on "do not disturb" with an exception of the alarm and I've tested it with the sound on, the alarm failed to work both times. Don't understand why as it was working fine last week.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have Neo V for almost half a year and I haven't had any problems with alarm before. Recently I upgraded to ICS, but I haven't experienced any problems with alarm till today.
I am using the stock alarm. I do not have any task killers or any special apps, just some usual games or simple apps, nothing fancy or something that could affect the entire Android OS.
Yesterday evening I set alarm to 9:00, I checked the signal, everything seemed to be as usual. In the morning I woke up and looked at a clock near my bed - oh, it's 9:05. Hmm, but why my phone did not make any noise? Ok, let's wait a bit, maybe I did not hear... 9:15. Nothing. 9:20. Still nothing. Then I took my phone and pressed the unlock button. And exactly when I did that, suddenly the alarm window popped up and phone rang. It was 9:20. To test if the alarm still works, I set up a new signal at 9:40 and put the phone aside, so it can lock. This time everything went smooth, alarm went off exactly at 9:40.
I have set a few alarms, and sometimes they don't go off, and it is really annoying since I need my alarm to get up for stuff like lectures etc! I set it yesterday to go off today at 12, but it didnt go off! and I ended up getting up at fricking 2pm!! I try to replicate the problem by like setting the alarm in 1 minute, but it will go off.

I have a Z5 and for some reason my alarm does not make a sound? On several occasions this has caused me to get late for work! Initially I just thought I was sleeping through but have tested it and for some reason it continues to be silent?!
I have checked the settings and put the alarm volume on loud and set the time according to the step by step and still no luck...
Daylight savings time stared today and the alarm on my Z3v was correctly set to 0730. The alarm didn't go off though until 0830. I did set the alarm with google now, but around 8 o'clock i also checked the Alarm and Clock app and verified the correct alarm time was set and turned on. Then the alarm went off at 0830. It was a one time alarm and no other alarms were set.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm writing about my X8 that I've upgraded from Android 1.6 (Donut) to Android 2.1 (Eclair) between yesterday and today. I regret that with the upgrade a lot of "alarm tones" are gone, including one in particular which is so cool, I can't remember the name but that begins with "multi" - it's a combination of more tones (drin, chicken, bell, etc.).
I did a regular backup rand restore but I don't think those wake-up tones are normally backed up or considered in the backup process. I'm asking you what I can do to have back what I had but seems to have been lost with the upgrade. Now the mobile phone's alarm ringtones available are very few and I think a upgrades should add, not remove.
How can I change the alarm tone in my xperia neo v mobile?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI think this is a new issue, never noticed it before.
I set 3 alarms (just in case), 6:00, 6:15, 6:30.
First alarm went off, I pressed dismiss and went back to sleep.
Did not hear any other alarms go off.
Woke up at 6:33 by myself.. Alarm was not ringing, as soon as I unlocked the phone, 6:30 alarm went off and started ringing.
But that only happened after I woke up the phone with the power button....
I'll try to delete and make new ones.. weird..
I'm running 10.0.10586.29 and when I set an alarm I never hear anything, not even vibration works.
I do see that alarm is Enabled and after it should have gone off it is set to Disabled, but nothing gets triggered.
Ofcourse I tried to do the standard troubleshooting like rebooting phone and trying dozens of times with:
- volume on/off
- different alarm settings
- only vibe setting in alarm app
- turning everything from alarm app on/off in "Notifications + actions" settings
- soft reset

Every time I set an alarm, it goes off, but complelty silent. I keep my phone on mute at night because I don't want to hear anything. But the Alarm, used to go off even though on mute. Here what I've done so far.
Settings > Sound and Notification> Application Notifications > Clock > Priority (Set to On)
Settings > Sound and Notification> Application Notifications > Interruptions
Sound Mode = Mute
Set priority interruption period: Here, I selected every day, and start time of 12:00AM and a End time of 11:59PM.
I thought these settings would cover me, but the Alarm still, does not sound. How to get the Alarm working when the phone is set on Mute Mode?
This is my first Android based phone and I have some important questions (based on my personal knowledge of course):
1.Is there a PC program out there that would do the work of PC Suite for Nokia phones? i.e. backup phone through wire, update phone through wire, connect phone to computer and reply to sms’s through computer, synchronize contacts with Outlook and appointments and not wait to get an internet connection?
2.How can I enable alarm when phone is off?
3.I use open home – however it crashes a lot of times… is there another software, or we should stick to the one on the phone with 3 screens?
4.I tried to update my phone however it was saying that server was not responding. Can I do the update through usb?
5.How can I add birthday information to a contact?
6.If I use 3rd party applications for example “better keyboard” would it have any impact on the phone and overall work? Or it is ok to replace the default programs with anything else?
7.I tried to install Talk to ME keyboard, but it says that I don’t have Google voice… Is there another application that would do that work without Google voice?
These for now after 3 days of use of the phone!  I suppose I won’t get a reply for all , but on the other side, I don’t have anywhere else to ask except from you guys that are experts on these things!
why does my iphone 4s alarm not working when my phone is turned off?
Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1
I want to silence all alerts (texts, emails, etc) except for phone calls and the alarm like I could with my blackberry.My new iPhone 5c is a huge upgrade from the BB other than the lack of Sound Profiles.Â
I've read a post about plugging the headphones in so that the other alerts play through them, but the phone and alarm still sound out, but this does not appeal to me as I don't typically use earbuds. Matter of fact, the ones that came with the phone are still in the box.Â
