Annoying ! Alarm rings but doesn't show. ie: can't stop - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I used Alarm all the time and it was always working fine,
Since I emptied the battery a few days ago and manage to resucitate it (USB cable direct connection to battery) .. strangely the alarm now rings as usual, but NO Notification message is displayed.
Result = impossible to turn the alarm off ! :-(
Anyone had this behaviour before ?

Check your notification queue and remove anything that looks suspicious. It'd be wise to do a backup first.

there is no notification at all ..
in the queue.
I soft-reset and it still rings with no "notification" queue on the TODAY screen

How did you check the queue? You need something like Memmaid.
Also check your registry in the clock section to see if alarms are enabled/disabled.

I have just upgraded my OS since ...
O2 UK has it available now, so it fixesitself by the hard reset anyway.
thx.

Qtek 9100 alarm notification problem

Few days ago my Qtek started to act strangely. When I soft reset it starts to ring (alart notification), the vibra goes on, so the flashlight. I dont get that "dismiss/snooze/whatever" option on the left soft key so I cannot cancel it. It rings few more times and then goes off but the flash ligh still stays on.
Also, my I cannot dismiss alarm clock when it rings.
I have tried to joggle sound/notification settings but with no success. I have tried that Check Notification app, it removes some duplicate reminders but the problem is not solved. Any other idea please? It drives me crazy and I am too lazy to hard reset and to go through whole_day_setting_my_phone thing. Thanx..
Same problem! No fix found yet
Same problem here ...
Here in Finland at least a official ROM upgrade for Qtek 9100 has been released. Mine device it now fine ...

TyTN bugs: (1) never sleeps, (2) multiple alarms

Hi,
I've got two niggly problems with my TyTN:
1. Despite having the power options set to 'turn off device if not used for' set to '2 minutes' the phone never actually powers off, the backlight goes off but I can still see the screen text and buttons remain active. (the only thing running in the background is Spb Pocket Plus).
2. Two days ago I set the alarm for 6.30 AM, it went off, i then adjusted it to 7.30 AM. This morning the alarm went off at 6.30 AM and 7.30 AM (I double checked the settings and there is only one alarm set).
PS. I also have a keyboard which doesn't respond perfectly to every key press although I am finding this is improving the more I use it.
I add point 3) e 4) :
3) Sometimes when alarm rings I can't see nothing... no Notification...just the ring...therefor I can't stop it!!!
4) It's happened two times... I set sound off... through comm.manager ( I'M SURE) and after a while when my friends called me the phone rang! It's strange don't u think?

In my TyTN this problem seems to be connected to phone module. In fact when the phone module is inactive, my TyTN correctly sleeps. Moreover when it is in charge and when the backlight off timeout is set to greater time than sleep timeout, I can observe that the device correctly sleeps.

this happened to me yesterday! Alarm ringing but no notification and no chance to turn it off!
After 3 hours the red led was still flashing and the problem was there...
Solution? Hard reset :evil:

3) Can happen if you go and remove alarms from the notification queue, for example memmaid can be used to do this.
Or use check notifications - see my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=60426&highlight=
I just resolved by mammeid. MUST have software
I had this same problem on my TyTN, also could be fixed using MemMaid - the old alarms stopped ringing after deleting the clock.exe entries in the Notification queue.
However, the alarms STILL aren't working ok, because any time I set a new alarm when it rings I don't get any notification so I can dismiss it, so it keeps ringing until I delete it again using MemMaid. Any idea of how can I fix this?
Thank you.

I deleted all the entries using MemMaid... then I soft-reset and now I don't have any problem using alarm! Notification appears again so I can stop it!

I have exactly the same problem on my 838Pro now (used to have this happened to me on my 818Pro as well. Didn't know what to do, so I hard-reset).
Marques, are you able to try what El_Mar1ach1 has tried, that is to delete all Clock entries using MemMaid and do a soft-reset? Create new alarm using Clock and see if you get any notification.
I could have tried that myself, but unfortunately my unit is in the service centre, and won't be getting it back until tomorrow or day after.
I have a good restore on my storage card that will bring this problem back for me to try when I get my unit back, so that at least if this happens again in the future, we will all know how to resolve it.
Yesterday wasn't working. Today I tryed again the same procedure and it's back to normal. Working again...
Meanwhile I installed PocketAlarm (http://pocketalarm.iit-bsuir.com/indexen.htm) and I'm starting to use it instead of the system alarm.
Do you guys know any other nice alarm applications to test it out?

Vibrates, bleeps and led led flashes after reset

Can anyone help with this one?
Afetr a soft reset my mini s vibrates (approx 1 second) and bleeps the alarm 1 notify message. It does this about 6 times at 5, then 10, then continues at 30 second intervals. The red led flashes untill I fully charge it again.
I have checked the sounds and notification but can't find anything that it might be - I thought it might be the signal for a wireless network.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
I was actually having the same problem. My alarm (that was no longer set) kept going off at a certain time of day for no reason. Also when I soft reset, the alarm/notifications also went off. After reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=353267&highlight=reset+alarm+notify#353267, I tried turning off all options under Sounds & Notifications > Notifications > Event: Reminders > uncheck all. Now, try a soft reset and everything should be back to normal. (Re-enable the settings if you wish or just try the Phone Alarm program like other people to avoid the headache.)
I tried alot of things, but this one worked. I tried to remove duplicate notification entries and see if any outstanding processes were running under Task Manager--neither worked.
Notifications
Try using memmaid to see if you have any old notification in the queue (not the same as looking at the "sounds and notifications" applet.
You may find old and duplicate notifications in there.... don;t just delete them all - as some of the notifications are required.
You should have searched first - there are loads of posts about this.

HELP! Alarm won't stop ringing!! :(

My Uni was synced to my PC via USB cable when a Reminder came up. I clicked "Dismiss" in Outlook's popup window, thinking it would automatically dismiss the reminder from the phone as well (like it usually does).
However, to my annoyance, IT KEPT ON RINGING! I picked up the phone to switch off the reminder manually, but, to my amazement, it wasn't there anymore! The phone kept playing an alarm sound for a reminder that had already been dismissed!!
Two soft-resets later and it's still playing! Is there any way to switch the damn thing off without a hard reset? Just installed a bunchload of new apps on it, don't want to have to go through it again....
I have the same problem with my Dash. I set an alarm for 8:40pm. The alarm went off, I turned off the alarm and even changed the alarm to a different time. Every day the alarm goes off at 8:40pm. its crazy!

Alarm Problem - Can't turn it off

Hi,
I have problem with alarm. I have setup 3 alarms. All are from monday to friday.
1. 5:45
2. 6:00
3. 6:15
So at 5:45 start ringing and swipe DOWN do not turn off alarm. I can't silence alarm, only way to do this is if I turn off phone. This hass happen on stock ROM, now when I have rooted rom and Im wipe all data is same.
Have someone similar problem? How can I fix it?
Thanks for any help.
why 3 alarms? You can set the option of longer snooze if u whish. you can also set the behavior of side buttuns during alarm.
Btw. I dont have any issues with turning off the alarm.

-CacheCleaner(On Stock ROM Im not use it)
-bMonitor Server Monitor (On Stock ROM Im not use it)
-Paper Toss (On Stock ROM Im not use it)

This is all what I have installed. Now on rooted ROM I have also A2SD.
Please detail the actual behaviour and expected behaviour clearly.
It sounds like you are expecting, upon turning off the first alarm, the other 2 will turn off as well. Even if you untick/retick they will say "Alarm sounds in 15 minutes" (or the equiv.).

It is simple. At 5:45 start alarm beeping and I can't turn it off. I swipe down on screen to dismiss it but it do not stop producing sound. Only way to stop sound is turning off phone. I don't want when I "stop" first alarm that other two is stopped to, for this I can use snooze...
Im fix problem:
-Delete all alarms in STOCK Alarm clock
-Download: Better Alarm Clock
-Setup same alarms
And today on morning Im get dialog with dismiss and snooze button and Im normaly stop alarm...
me too
Sync yesterday I have exactly the same problem: can't turn off/snooze/silence the first alarm and I have to turn off the phone to stop the sound.
I'll root the device this weekend, I hope that will fix it.

I currently use rooted ROM and is same so is not fix issue...
turn it upside down
I just use 1 alarm, when it goes off i turn the phone on its belly and its stops for x minutes. When I get up (turning it a few times) I turn it off...
I guess it is a BUG:
1. setup your phone for alarm
2. before the alarm started to be ringing, turn on the screen (wake it up by pushing the top button)
3. when the alarm starts to ring, drag down the slide button
4. enjoy the ring for ever )))
Reason:
when the alarm activated and starts to ring the sense not updated fast enough the slide down button. therefore the sense just "thinks" you want to unclock the screen, instead of adding the function next to it to dismiss the alarm
Had this happen to me this morning. Got an sms just before the alarm went off. After closing the sms box there was no way to stop the alarm, had to restart the phone. Very annoying.

I do the same with alarm, and this problem don't appear on my Desire.
Alaram Bug
I to am facing the same issue, is there any fix for this?
Happened to me this morning too, anyone knows if it works better with third party alarm installed?
I received an sms, handcent installed, coming back from bathroom it was ringing for about 15 minutes. I removed the battery...
That sounds like a pain in the butt . No idea of a fix but there are plenty of 3rd party alarms out there with much better functions than the standard alarm. better alarm clock , alarm clock xtreme and alarm clock pro v2 to name but a few .. they also have options to set a math question on wake so no need for 3 alarms a day plus can set lots of alarms with different times for different days . i use alarm clock pro and it removes the lock screen altogether wakes with the phone on main screen so shouldn't end up facing the lock screen bug!
There's an appbrain link to 2 alarms in my thread link in sig
had this problem once
switched to gentle alarm and fixed the problem
I have this same issue. About half the time, if the phone is in use in some form and the alarm goes off, there is no way to turn it off. Occasionally I get the snooze/dismiss option, but more often than not I end up having to shut the phone down to make it stop.
Would love to try any suggestions!
