Hello,
Did you check if its an Alarm of a task reminder or Appointments? Does the notification window display only Alarm or any other message associated with it?

I had bad experience with the alarm clock too. In fact, I am looking for a good alarm program.
Sometimes, even after you have deleted the alarm entry, the alarm would still goes off!
Other times, you get double alarmed for the same entry.
One way to reproduce this problem is to mess with the "Visiting" time.
Good luck!

Under Sounds & Notifications, when one selects "Reminders", there is a tick box called "Repeat".
Presumably this means that when an alarm sounds, it should repeat until dismissed. Mine only plays once. Am I missing something?

Hi there,
Mine's a XDA Exec, and it does repeat although it pauses for about a second or two first. Not nearly loud or persistent enough to be a really decent alarm clock though!
OK, so it seems that aeAlarmPlus is the way to go - looks for an alarm and then comes up afterwards to do a repeating/escalating thing of it's own. Works well.
hi there
ok if u talking about alarms then go to clocks & alamrs --- go to alarm tab then set the time whet ever u want to set then click on the "BELL" icon
there is the option to make it repeat and even u can chose the sound
HTH

Yeah, I am using it too.
My problem is that I cant kill the alarm. It gets repeating and I am getting more and more mad. Or is this on purpose ? as I have to wake up and tick the box of with the stylus....
Anybody has the same problem?

Playing with alarms may have been the reason why my calendar was not able any more to remind me.
When soft resetting even alarms of all kind made me mad.
I hard reset (horrible job with a lot of work to do) solved my problem, but I do not touch the alarm any more.
Hope your problem is different

i have the same problem. It goes off every time and repeats for a couple of times and I dont see any option to close/kill it.. good thing I still have te sense not to bang it against the wall like an alarm clock.
i guess if the built in alarm function is not working or it goes crazy, just use any other free alarm application. i know theres a lot of free application out there.
I did do a quick search, but couldn't find owt, but can't believe I'm the only person with problem.
I use the supplied Clock & Alarms for my alarm clock, but sometimes if I'm using something else on the phone, or already have notifications like missed calls when my alarm is due to go off, if will still sound, and vibrate, but won't come up with a message about it. Giving me no option to turn the thing off!!!
So it will go off fow a minute or two, then go quiet, then every five minutes will repeat, again with no message.
Even if I reset the device it will still continue.... I either have to wait for a message to come up, which can take 30+minutes, or if I get really annoyed with it clean reset it :-/
If anyone does know how I can get rid of this error, or what file I can load to give me the message, it will be much appreciated!!!
alarms and repeating alarms are well known to be highly unreliable.
spb pocket plus has an add in to assist with repeating alarms, but I never found it much help.
may i suggest you dont repeat them, this is a big problem.
mine got so bad after a while I had no choice but hard reset. it messed up all the system notifications and just became plain unreliable.
Yes, I've had exactly the same problems and also with Spb Pocket Plus repeating alarms too.
I've since disabled this option which has made things bettr but still not perfect

at least your alarm goes off, mine does not. an expensive device like the xda exec and a simple thing like the alarm wont work after new o2 rom update
:? :?
Does that mean if I use alarms, but don't select "repeat sound", that may be better?
I upgraded to the i-Mate ROM, and TWICE now the notification queue has died for the calupd.exe and calnot.exe. Adding appointments with alarms make no additions to the notification queue, hence I miss all my alarms.
The only fix so far has been to hard reset, and wait for the next time the notification queue dies.
Are you using Sprite Backup?
I found it to be the culprit and I have switched to SBP Backup now.
Sprite CRMdesk will give you a patch "PostBootPopup.exe" if requested that helps the problem. It solves the many notifications in the queue that can't be cleared or dismissed normally. But the issue of not waking for any alarms remained for me with Sprite 5 - even with this patch.
works perfect for me!
I just added my own sound file which has a little more agressive waking properties ;-)
If you're stuck with an invisible alarm you cant get rid off, you can use scarybear's "check notifications" proggie and take out the notification which has messed up....

Where is this please?

But be warned, if you are careful it can work, but I got aggressive and frustrated.
The only, hard reset. There are some you can, some you cant.
Bewarned.
Im struggling to solve a problem I have with my new phone...
I cant get the alarm to switch on!
Ive set it from the clock shortcut and double checked the setting...Ive also tried to set the alarm via the phone alarm program and that too does not go off.
The alarm notification under the clock never indicates that the alarm is set even though Ive set it correctly...
Im struggling to solve this issue and as Im new to the phone and Im unsure if Ive changed a setting unaware but from what I can tell it should work.
Am also having this problem and was just wondering if you have a fix for this yet?
Cheers.
Not quite the answer to your request..... but to be honest why bother with the built in alarm when you can get an excellent free alarm utility that does much, much more.
I use G-Alarm which you can download here.
ahem!
are you aware that on the alram menu, to activate an alarm, you have to check the square on left and to check also (they have to be greyed) the days when the alram occurs?
maybe this is your problem
on the other hand, integrated alarm is so limited.
much better to use 3rd party application
Does anyone have the issue of their alarm not showing up on the homescreen, even though it is turned on when you bring up the alarm setup screen? My alarm doesn't work, nor does it display, and when it says it is on. Does anyone have any insight, or fix to this problem. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
compare the alarms you set in htc with the alarm details in
settings menu all settings clocks and alarms
you may well find that one set has different alarm sound set, which may or may not even exist.
I have also seen winmo have problems with alarms if you leave the message box blank.
That unfortunately did not work, they both have matching "ringtones" and also the same description, but it doesn't show up. Any other suggestions?
in settings menu all settings sounds and notifications, notifications tab in the event drop down, select "reminders" and ensure show on screen is ticked.
oh and in clocks and alarms, alarms tab, make sure "sound even if phone is set to silent" is ticked (or words to that effect)
make sure the "S" for Saturday which is today is selected.

Yup, I too have the same prob, I had similar probs on MANILA 2D on my ELF too..!!!
I think there's some prob with the HTC Manla & Sense..!!!
The only solution is to download some ALARM APP like G-Alarm..!!!
Mine is working fine.

That answer was almost cute... almost.
Simple solution, ready...? G-Alarm. OR, OR, OR... SPB Time.
I have this same issue, and it is not a specific rom that this bug is in because I tried a few different ones and the problem still occurred. It seems like the alarm will only turn on if you set it for the next day. If you set it two days from now then it won't show up as it being on.
Hello, so I've been encountering this issue for about a week. Apparently my phone's thinking an alarm was set (thus giving icon on status bar and info on the quick settings), but that alarm clock was never set (at least by me). That alarm also never rings because every around 2 minutes it adds the time (or "snoozes") for 15 minutes. Example: It's 4:30, then that alarm will set to 4:45. But on 4:35, that alarm will change the set time to 4:50.
It's so damn weird that I can't figure out what's wrong. I've tried restarting, force stop alarm app and clear data. I'm running Android Pie with latest March 5 security update.
Is there any way to remove that alarm? Frankly, it does nothing bad, but it's really annoying to see alarm icon but I don't set it. Any help or assist will be super appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Facing Same Issue
Even I am facing the same issue and it's weird as hell and irritating too. Can someone help in it
Connect phone to the PC and type this command
Code:
adb shell dumpsys alarm
You will see all the alarms and which app set them. You can consult this page for more detailed explanation https://stackoverflow.com/questions...-shell-dumpsys-alarm-output/31600886#31600886
