Folks, Can you check your DVP time and the actual time today from google. My DVP time zone is set to 05-Eastern US and canada. As of this writing, the current time in DVP is 8:45am. The time as per google and other time sites is 7:45AM. Without DST applied, it is 6:45AM..Can't understand how the DVP shows +2 hrs when DST is in effect.
Edit: It looks like its a minor bug. The DST doesn't work off the get go automatically. Once i went into settings and came back to main screen (or used the phone for couple of minutes), the Time is synced.
================FOR MS==============
Sequence of event (this is for MS to troubleshoot):
1. Set Alarm to ring on weekends @ 7:45AM
2. Sunday 13th Mar 2011 came, alarm rang. Woke up and saw the time on the Device, it said 8:45AM
3. Was pissed that i am late by 1 hr. Booted up my computer and time popped up as 7:45(+/-5 min).
4. Checked my WP7 device again, still said 8:45AM.
5. Went into alarm and checked and came back to main screen and after 10 min, time says 7:55AM.
My inference:
1. Either Alarm is following a time clock on its own or it is not DST applied.
2. OS is not syned with timeserver(?) until one uses the phone?
=============FOR MS==================
My DVP showed the correct -5 Eastern shift BUT my alarm, set for 7am, went off at 8am (adjusted, it was 7am if the time change hadn't happened). I think we may be seeing the same thing. Once my alarm went off, then the time may have updated (the alarm woke me up, so I don't know what it read before that).
I then set a single a alarm, and that happened without a hitch. I didn't mess with my daily 'work' alarm, but added a second one one minute later just in case to track this issue.
I feel bad if this is a bug that's making anyone late for work today.
Yep, same for me...The Alarm was set for 7:45am and it went of @ 8:45am. I think the internal clock might be fine, just the display time is screwed up or buggy.
mines is correct
I'm not sure whats going on with you guys but I don't seem to have this. my time is displayed correctly with no change or intervention from me. I woke up this morning to the right time displayed on my phone. plus I did not have an alarm problem.
I'm using an HD7, not a dell venue pro. don't know if that makes a difference.
It might be just a DVP issue as well. One other thing to note is this bug happens only in a small windows of time (may be 5-10 min or less). So it is very easy to not notice by many. Also If one has the lock screen turning on all time - this might not happen - that's my guess.
Non Bad part - The alarm goes off fine, but time is shown wrong.
Bad part - If one had any appts/tasks to do said day, they might thing that they are 1 hr late and thier alarm screwed up - only to realize later that all is well and WP7 made fun of them.

Just confirming, my alarm was set to 7h00 and went off at 8h00 and when you go into the alarm config it shows it was set to 7h00.
No such bug bugging my DVP.
Strange bugs keep popping out every now n then with dvp.

Seems like the few of us that had this happen had alarms set on Sunday. The rest may not have used it to wake up today.
It will be interesting to see if it's just the DVP or a widespread deal with WP7.

Since three weeks my alarm function doesn´t work right. My Triny should ring at 6:25pm but does it one hour later. Watch this:
What is going on here?

Check your Clock&Alarms Settings. Perhaps you have switched to the Visiting-Time?
or changed some regional code setting?
Yes, I switched to the visitors time, because I live for a half year in Australia. Nevertheless this has worked for one month now and then suddenly occurred problems. When I activate the visitors time, then the alarm should also ring according to this time?!
As you can see in the picture, he really rings at 7:25 and informs me with the screen "6:25 alarm".
I forgot the worst issue: Sometimes the alarm doesn´t appear at all, even though I configured all settings well!
So my wife's 8125, running WM5SE from dferreira on AT&T, is having issues. We live in Central US, but it keeps reverting to Eastern US. The time is correct on the big clock on the HTC home page, but her appt reminders and alarms are all an hour off. Her 7AM alarm didn't go off until 8AM today (and she is ticked off).
This happened to mine during that odd time between when DST started and when it should have started, but I can't think of any reason for it to do that now.
Any ideas? Should I revert back to a Cingular ROM?
Thanks,
Joe
Never mind. She seems to have found a workaround.
So, i have my Alarm on my nexus One set up to go off at 6:45AM every Workday (Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri)
Today it didn't go off, i woke up at 6:47AM as my alarm didn't go off (my internal watch is pretty good )
Usually it vibrates and gives the alarm tone. This morning.. nothing.
So after reading the news i saw that there was a huge Date Bug in the Playstation Network due to the leap year.
So i jumped to the conclusion that Android or the alarm app has a similar date bug.
Anyone experienced something similar? Any dev input here?
No date bug here. I literally watched it go from Feb 28 to March 1.
My alarm went off today.
strange.
what networks are you guys on?
I'm on AT&T.
EDIT: one more question, do you have the alarm set for every day or is it like me for each single day?

I am on t-mobile USA and I have my alarm set for 11am every day. And today it went off like normal and with me hitting the snooze button repeatedly lol.
haha same thing happend to me.. live in sweden.
Weird. I have my alarm set for 6am PST today (M-F) and the alarm didn't go off either... Woke up at 6:24am after realizing my "rooster" alarm didn't go off.
I thought it was a fluke until I saw this thread. WEIRD.
(On T-Mobile USA, locked Bootloader, Stock ROM on this unit).
Cheers,
Kermee
so i guess it's carrier unrelated..
but something's wrong there

My Alarm did go off. I have my alarm set for 6am MST (M-F). I'm on Cyanogen 5.0.3.1.
My alarm went off at 06:50 (GMT) as per usual.
Mine worked the way it was supposed to, who needs alarm if internal alarm us as good as that? LOL.

all stock nexus, alarm went off at its normal time today
I've alarm set for Mon-Fri, it worked fine for me...
May be a shot in the dark, but if you're using a task killer be sure to have 'clock' excluded. Being that your alarms usually go off this is unlikely, but possible.
FWIW my alarm went off as scheduled at 745 EST
I have a weekday profile and a weekend profile. Alarm went off today at 7:30 per my weekday profile. No problems. Running Cy's latest 5.0.4.1.
Has anyone had this... for the last 2-3 mornings, both alarms came on some 3/4 of an hour before they were due. Even more strange, the fact that the time intervals are not constant: the 1st, due at 0924 went off at 0842; 2nd, due at 0939 went off at 0853. I've tried experimenting a few times this am, but haven't managed to make it happen again ---perhaps it needs to be resting overnight in order to get confused!
See what happens tomorrow morning. By the way, I suspect this has been happening ever since I changed the first alarm's tune from 'beeps' to 'classic'.
P.S.: And as with other users, notification sound comes on too, but that's not nearly as frustrating!
Cheers!
the alarm is USELESS. Don't waste your time with it, get galarm
Hi there, I just sent a message on Google Talk to a friend, at 5:25pm, there reply came back with a time stamp 4:27pm, so appeared above the message I sent?!?!?
I noticed something similar on a calendar event. My shift in the calendar looks to be 7am to 4pm, which is an hour early. When I tap it, still 7-4, when I press details it finally says 8 to 5, which I know it to be.
Any ideas what is going on? This is a rather major issue if I don't know what time meetings are booked!
Thanks.
**EDIT** Okay, silly me, it looks like it might be as simple as I was set to GMT not BST... Quite why in one view it showed 8am and others it showed 7am seems a little odd...
Mine was showing the correct time but an hour wrong for timezone after initial setup, despite me choosing the correct option at the time. Was resolved by going into settings, date & time, and choosing (for me) London, UK, which then correctly set the timezone as GMT+1 (British Summer Time). I also then had to correct the clock by an hour.
I think that during initial setup it doesn't take into account the difference between BST and GMT for UK users, and sets it to GMT regardless.
