Help Alarm not working properly

[fedup2]

This just happened today! and I got my ass chewed.

My alarm was set for 0515 this morning just like it is every six weeks when I am on this 0630 - 1530 shift. Today I woke up a around 0400, looked at my phone and went back to sleep. I even checked my google hangout, so the phone was completely woken up. Went back to sleep and well, I was late.

I have hated this phone pretty much a few months after I got it, and here is just one more reason. I am going to clear the cache and use a third party app to prevent this until I can get a new device. If I remember I will come back with an update here next week with how those steps work out.

Glad I'm not the only one with this problem, though it should not be an issue.

Tried that, after a few days the third party alarm failed.

I have been using my HTC One as an alarm for wks and I change the time as i have to be up at different times.... the alarm is the default (GOLD) ring which is continuous. All of a sudden y'day i was late for work and i thought i was just over tired and slept through it, which is unusual as it is loud but I checked it and it was set. This morning I happened to wake up before my alarm was supposed to go off and when it did, it made one 'beep' noise and went straight to snooze, didn't give me the option of 'snooze' or 'dismiss'.. i tried changing the time for a minute later to see if it was just a fluke and it did the same thing... thank god it wasn't overly important that i was to be awake this morning!!!!

Does anyone know what the problem might b?

I have started getting the same problem with my Sony Experia. I have an Sony Experia Tipo which is one month old. My android version is 4.0.4.

Until yesterday my alarm was working fine. Since yesterday my alarm does my switch ON if I the phone is in sleep mode for long time (I guess more than 2 hours)

After a I switch the phone after a long time, after 2-3 seconds the display updates the time and alarm starts ringing

I think the phone is not able to update the time and thats why alarm is not triggered in time.

I had the same issue and I think I found a solution. Try turning off 'Standby Intelligent Power Saving' in Settings > Battery. It looks like that fixed it on my device.
