Hi guys!
I have a problem with my Jamin: I made some test with the alarm:
I set the alarm for all the days of the week at one time... I change the time and set it up for all the work days of the week.
Well, the alarm ring but: it doesn't repeat the alarm even if the checkbox is checked and the Jamin rings at the previous time too (but I have only one alarm set in the alarms tab!).
I've got the last ITA ROM....
Any idea? :-(
If I understood you correctly, you need to set Repeat feature in Settings>Personal>Sounds and Notifications>Notifications>Reminders
I just checked out: it's checked!
The alarms are an unsolved mistery...
Try Chronos, a multi alarm program, is great and works totally independen of wm5 so you can give off the phone volume and the alarms works with their own rings!!!

Hi. One extra vote for chronos here. Program works great! Even when you totally shut the device off and on it will remember your alarm times etc.
PLUS - its independent of WM5 volume (option adjustable) so you wont get some ridiculously soft ring which doesnt have a chance of waking you up in the morning.
You can even precisely set the vibration settings. (ie. 600ms on, 400ms off)
This is the alarm program par excellence IMO.
ive had problems with my previous and current wm5 devices regarding the alarms not going off and the device not waking me up in the morning......im gonna try this Chronos software for a month and keep you guys posted.......

I am having problems wth alarms on my universal. It happens to me that alarms don't ring when i want. They are ringing only when my universal is not on stand by.
Example: I have 3 alarms. One at 5:00, one at 6:00, one at 7:00. They are not ringing on time, but when i wake up at 10:00 i turn my universal back from stand by and he start to ring at all three alarms.
Please help, i have installed spb time program, and i have this with both program.
Hi! I am using the 4.0 Biggy with Cube by ttran. Its great and I like it a lot the only weird thing I've had to deal with is that it seems like everytime I set an alarm it goes off, regardless of if it is the current one set, or if it is even set.
Example.
I set alarm 1 for 9am and then I change it to 10am. Then I change it to 8am. Then I change it to 9am. The alarm will go off at 8am, and then two alarms (it will give me two notices and I can hear my alarm ring tone echoing, meaning two tones are going off) and then the alarm will go off at 10am.
Even then this doesn't seem to happen consistently, but it happens enough to where its starting to be an inconvenience. This morning i had 3 alarms pop up at my normal alarm time, with 3 tones overlaying each other pretty much going off at approximately the same time.
Does anybody know what the issue is here, I know the Dash had certain alarm problems where it went off everyday at the same time but its not quite the same as mine.
Please advise, thanks!
winmo has always been slightly spotty when it came to alarms. i suggest a third party program
I've used Memmaid to delete duplicate notifications/alarms. I don't know what freeware is out there that can duplicate this function but I'm sure there is something.
I have a problem. I use my phone as an alarm to wake me up for work.
I have set the alarm and checked it, and it works when the screen is on. But when the screen times out, the alarm doesn't start.
Anyone have this problem and know how to solve it?
My sister has the same problem with hers, anyone got a fix? :S
Hi,
I had the same problem, you solve it going to alarm setting and increasing the volume up to max... this seems to solve the issue.
I've got the same problem but only when there is not the phone sim inside.
I have this problem too. I solve it by shutdown the tattoo and then start it.
happens to mine too, I have to set it as "stay awake" so the alarms will work porperly =.=
I used to have this problem before which gets resolved by restarting.
However, I was using Astro as a task killing program which caused the error even after putting the clock on the ignore list.
Actually, using Taskiller solved the issue.
Assuming its not a taks manager thing...
On the Tattoo (and Android), there are quite a number of volume controls compared to a normal phone. Ringer is handled seperate from Alarm, then there is also Notifications, System....
I had this problem (a silent alarm), and so have a number of others. Some combination of apps turn down the alarm volume. But there is a simple way to solve it.
Instal Audio Manager from the market. This lets you see all the different settings. You will probably see the alarm turned down to 0. Turn it up and the alarm works. It also has a widget so you can keep an eye on the different volumes.
I did worry that I would have to check the alarm volume every night, but actually it seems I don't have to -- not sure why, but the alarm is very seldom at 0 now.

i had this problem once - after using task killer and the default kill tasks function - dont think the ignore list works that well
ignore the clock process and deactivate update clock at network
I stopped using ATK, and the alarms works just fine right now.

I agree - ive had one issue with the alarm after using tk - dont bother with task killing anymore - its overrated!!
Has anyone had the problem where the alarm on the alarm clock rings a single time and them stops ringing?
I have the checkbox in the control panel checked for repeat sound yet it seems to have started only ringing once (which is really annoying if you're a heavy sleeper).
Any help would be appreciated.
Yeah, I have that too. The only thing I've found it to be sure your reminders are on and it will remind you in a few minutes that you missed your alarm. Unfortunately the reminder tone will play at the end of your alarm tone as well so I picked a reminder that sounds OK with my alarm....
Hopefully someone will have a better solution.
p.s. I've noted that if attached to external power the alarm will repeat but if not, it won't. Seems it sleeps right after the alarm if alarm sounds when screen is locked and won't wake to continue the alarm.....
I suspected it was a power saving method but it's a pretty lousy method if it breaks the primary usage.
I decided to install a 3rd party alarm clock called Klaxon. It's free and it works great.
Just got my S5, came from a Droid Charge (which, after getting community radios from XDA I loved quite a bit for years) and am having some issues with the alarm clock. Thankfully I still set my alarm on my Charge as a backup or I would have been late for work this morning. The issues are as follows:
1. Smart alarm just doesn't seem to work? I have the exact same settings on my S5 as I do on my Charge (albeit with different tones) - Alarm Type: Sound, Alarm Tone: Serene Morning, Snooze: Off, Smart Alarm: On (3 minutes, Beginning of Life). Yet when I set my alarm it goes off exactly at the time it was set for (unlike on my Charge where the smart alarm would start 3 minutes earlier and crescendo) and just plays the alarm tone.
2. The alarm just turns off at 1 minute and never rings again? I guess this is working as intended as my gf says it works this way on her S3 as well, but really? what a terrible design for an alarm?
Think I'm going to find a third party app unless anyone else has a suggestion?

Enable "Sleep" on your alarm and you must choose "Zz" instead of "X" when your alarm rings.
I´ve tested here and it´s working well, with no issues.
