I just got a new S7 edge 935f. I rooted it with magisk after installing twrp. I have tried a few Nougat stock roms and in all of them, my alarm clock fails to go off first thing in the morning. It will come on when I push the home button and for the rest of the day all alarms work fine. It is only the first morning alarm that fails.
I wonder if this is due to something wrong with the kernel, and if installing a custom kernel may fix this. Or is the a lib file that may be corrupt.
Anyone else experience this kind of problem? I read in a few articles and forums that it is linked possibly to a SOD (sleep of death) bug. Hoping some information can come from anyone else who knows of this.
Thanks in advance.
So a custom rom and kernel failed to fix this. In the kernel settings with mtweaks I even allowed all wake locks. Mos puzzling and even slightly frustrating...

Hey have you tried using a third party alarm clock so you can test if it's an isolated case or with all of them ?

yes I have and all have same issue. For the first alarm I have to manually wake up the phone, all others work through the day.
Surely I am not the only one to have this trouble....

Check the battery saver app in maintanance it miht have picked up the clock app which I soubt but it is a good idea to check it.

Yes, I checked all those things... I wonder about MM 6.0.1 if the issue would remain or not. I found an app "SOD Killer" that I will test. It results in some battery being used to keep it from going into deep sleep. Have googled this and there are a lot of others with the situation but not a lot of fixes around.

I feel my alarms fail as well from time to time, but i think the culprit is, in advance features the easy mute function have you tried turning it off ?
It might have a bug or something with the sensor.

No I haven't tried that. I have mine working now. It woke me up this morning. What did it is the app "SOD Killer" which is on google play. It increases battery useage a little but until I find out which file is keeping phone asleep, it's a small price imho.
do not "freeze" or "doze" or use any similar apps to "kill" clock app in background.
which means, clock app needs to run to have alarm working.

I don't kill or freeze anything. Only thing I have to make alarm work is the SOD Killer app that keeps phone from going into deep sleep.
So a funny thing happened on the way back to Marshmallow 6.0.1 as I had just finished getting through setup and was about to start doing things on my phone, I got a notification that there was a firmware update downloading. It was taking me back to 7.0 and it upgraded my phone to the first version of Nougat for Luxembourg. Then a few minutes later another system update was downloading and I installed it and my phone now had the latest Nougat for Luxembourg. So first thing I checked was the alarm. I set one for 4 hours later, and it worked. I also tested an overnight alarm and it also worked. So now I have working alarms. Still going to downgrade back to 6.0.1 though, just feels better than Nougat to me.

Hello good people
I've had my I9000 for a couple of weeks now, and recently flashed it to JP3
At the version screen it says exactly:
PDA: I9000XXJP3
Phone: I9000XXJF5
CSC: Unknown
Build info: 2010, 07
The issue is that my phone follows a time on it's own. A couple minutes ago I set the time to 01:40. It's now 02:10, but my phone shows 02:05. After a few hours I suddenly find it 30+ minutes behind...
Here's the kicker though, I flashed it to JP3 to improve performance, but the damn clock is lagging. So I've voided the warranty, and my top of the line 1ghz smartphone can't even keep show me the right time.
Please.... help, I'm begging...
Go settings --> Date and Time. If automatic is ticked then untick it and set the time manually.
It's unticked, and I've manually set the time

Yes, I've tried that too. When I set it to "automatic" and connect to the internet, the time doesn't correct itself, or even change. I've tried giving it some time, but it doesn't sync. Same issue, same lag. Even if it did fix, it would just be temporarily. I'd like to have it show time accurately even when it doesn't have access to the internet.
flash a new firmware, you can always go back to your old firmware anyway if you have to return it.
(i assume it was working fine before flashing)

I'll try flashing to JP2, jp3 has given me nothing but trouble.
Do I just follow the same procedure or is there another way of downgrading to a previous firmware?
Most of the previous firmwares can be gotten from Samsung-Firmwares website.
JG5 was a good stable version.
JM2 is the next best thing.
Sheesh, just flash back (JM2 or JG5)...
You flashed some ultra beta/alpha firmware and now complain the phone isn't working properly? Not really honest.
From what ive been reading this is an issue with JP3, it really bugs me why such issues still exist these days, my Nokia 5800 also had an alarm bug.. its not really the same issue but a related one.

It is a beta (if that, perhaps even alpha) release. Quit whining about it, you haven't voided your warranty because there is no evidence of you ever doing something to it. If you flash an older firmware to it there is no history of different firmwares that have been installed.
BTW, I'm on jp3 and have no such issue with automatic time adjustment.
I'm on the stock firmware and have the same issue. The other problem with this is that the alarm not always going off! So I have to use the alarm in my iPhone!!! How ridiculous is that?!

The android 2.2 firmwares do definitely lose track of time. Probably a broken network time implementation (time for phones come from your carrier's atomic clock) that doesn't sync properly or something.
Android 2.1 firmwares don't have this problem.

During the time in question, if you ever used a task killer, make sure you the alarm clock on the ignore list.
I initially had a problem, I think only once but maybe twice, where the alarm didn't go off. As far as I could tell, I think I used a task killer and killed the alarm clock, so since then I've had it on the ignore list and haven't had any issues. If you think this might be the issue, give it a week long test using dual alarm clocks.

Are you using a custom lockscreen? I found that the ICE lockscreen caused that issue for me. But otherwise, I've been using JG5/Modaco for a long time now, am using the standard lockscreen, and been using the alarm twice a day for 3 days now, and it's always gone off..
And I don't use task killers, but alovell83 is probably correct

That, and generally, they don't care (unless you burnt out your CPU doing stupid stuff like overclocking, but most CPU's have thermal controls these days to help prevent that). But be aware, that if it is strictly a software issue, regardless of whether they care or not, you will possibly be charged (because no fault found), which is what happens with Apple.
That being said, just in case, I would suggest flashing back to the original firmware if there is an issue anyway, because there is subtle differences between many of the firmwares (and it's difficult to differentiate between beta and final ones)

I do have a task killer and I have the clock/alarm on ignore list. But it didn't help at all. In the evening I restarted the phone and didn't use the task killer and in the morning the alarm didn't go off.

No, I don't have a custom lock screen, just the stock one.
I am really starting to think about this phone as piece of junk. The Froyo update propably will fix some issues, but it will definetaly bring a lot of new ones....

Perhaps it's best if you post a list of apps you jhave installed (maybe using Appbrain).
I've been using my alarm to remind me to take the medicine for my ear-infection, and it's been fine, and perfectly reliable.

Just to let you know, i dont have an SGS yet. ETA for those handsets in my country is still late august to late september or even first week october
Excuse me but this, as already have been said, is a known issue with JP3 firmware and there is a fix for that. If you read through the forum you'll find the answer.
The "solution" is to root your phone and then install clock sync, to sync every few hours...
Ever since I flashed 5.0 to my 900V, my battery life has gone significantly down. Now this can be expected to some extent as I can no longer use Amplify to control NlpCollectorWakeLock (which is one of a few wakelocks going to town on my battery). One of the others is bluedroid_timer, which is part of bluetooth. I did some searching and I saw some other people with the same issue, but no answers. I use a Moto 360 on a daily basis, use bluetooth streaming in my car, and use bluetooth headphones at the gym, so turning off bluetooth isn't really an option. Bluesleep is another one that is spending a lot of time running. Anyone have any ideas? I've read a few threads where people mention this problem, but no one has posted any answers yet. Here is an album of my wakelocks.
Did you ever figure this out? I'm experiencing a very similar issue.
I'm not rooted, so I can't see the specific wakelocks but it's absolutely Bluetooth related, even with all device profiles deleted. If I have the BT radio on, my battery gets hammered and the phone never goes into deep sleep, turn the radio off and all is normal.

I just started experiencing this as well. I'm on a T-Mobile S4, running a GPE rom. It started happening in the last month, not exactly sure when. I ran a rooted TouchWiz stock rom before that and I don't recall ever seeing it.
So you're running fully stock? I was curious if I installed some weird app or software package that messed with things, but if you're running stock that would seem to rule that out..

yup, Galaxy S5 with current Verizon build of Lollipop, not rooted, just Nova launcher and my usual apps. Since the bluetooth battery issue, I've tried reboots, clearing cache partition, deleting all BT device profiles, etc. Everything short of an FDR, which I don't have time for right now.

My solution was a particular app was causing it. Same for another user if you read the thread.
The app for me was MyRadar. Another user had a problem with Gas Buddy.
Both of these apps were recently updated to add bluetooth permissions.

I did see that and I am a GasBuddy user. There was also mention of NFC, that was the first thing I looked at. Experimenting now with GasBuddy removed.
I'm not rooted so I can't check for individual wakelocks, I have to just run it for a while, then look at the "Awake" bar graph in the stock Battery app, so it takes while to see if anything changed. I really wish Google would give us the choice whether to let 3rd party apps see the detailed battery stats, locking that down made it so much harder to diagnose this kind of thing without root.
Glad you got yours sorted out!

so far it's looking like GasBuddy was the culprit in my case. I've been running several hours with GasBuddy removed, both NFC and Bluetooth are on, and battery usage/wakelocks appear normal.
I'm gonna give it a day or so to see if the problem spontaneously returns, then re-install GasBuddy and see what happens.

Definitely a GasBuddy issue on my phone, "Awake" bar graph becomes a solid block soon after installing GasBuddy, and returns to normal after uninstalling it. I've repeated this test a few times.

I started experiencing the issue with excessive wakelocks from Bluedroid_timer on my stock Nexus 6 about a month ago. Noticed my battery life dropped significantly as a result. Used Permission Friendly Apps to see which apps were using BT and if I happened to install any around the time this problem began. Only new apps indicating BT connectivity were GasBuddy and Netflix. No idea why GasBuddy needs BT but I'm pretty sure I installed it about the same time the wakelock issue began. Good to know someone else saw the same thing. Just uninstalled it and waiting to see if the wakelocks stop.
i use alarm clock extreme and for whatever reason the alarm did not go off. it went off later then when i woke up on my own and starting poking with my phone.

Omg.. Yes same problem here. I got my nexus this pass Monday and was late for twice because my alarm didn't go off until I picked up the phone or woke it up...
Alarm clock extreme paid app..
Same kind of problem here. Ended up creating an alarm in the stock clock app. After that, both alarms went off. I've left it like this cause I already was late for work 3 days last week.

I hear ya! However, I've switched back to the alarm in the stock Android Clock app, which works fine, and I'm now using an old-school clock radio as a backup. This double-pronged strategy seems to work fine for me for the time being, until the developers of Alarm Clock Xtreme address the problem with using their app on the Nexus 6P.
Hey, so lately I've been experiencing incredibly fast battery drain, I am confused of why this is happening, I rooted my phone and tried doing some things to improve it, but that didn't help. When I first got my phone the battery was extremely good. I've just recently flashed stock firmware but it's still terrible, does anyone know any tips or tricks, maybe the root of my problem? I'll drop some screenshots as well.

You've got a point, will remove one of the battery monitors. I seem to be some improvement after the QuickMemo+ trick.
Although I really don't know any good Facebook & Facebook Messenger replacements. Those I tried were just not giving me full performance and they're not looking good.

Did you try LG hidden menu trick? To do that, you need to type *#546368#*870# in dialer and you'll see a hidden menu. Then, tap on SVC Menu > LDB > Untick "enable" (both options needs to be unticked) close the menu and restart it. Most of the users says that this method is also useable, you can give it a try.
Hey,i have been experiencing the same thing.For me is like android system and android os and phone idle eat battery as the same time as the screen.So that means i am using the phone and three things at the same time are eating the battery.I went down from 5 hrs sot to 3 and a half.I have done a lot of things like the hidden menu,the quicknote,conserve memory thing.I don't know why it does that and the phone is really heating up.I have not experience this level of heat ever on my g6.I use the h870 europe with january security patch.
You all call this bad backup?? Plz get your phone tested. See my phones's backup.. this backup with no in between charge
sounds like a rogue app, install better battery stats from play store and check results (it will ID apps chowing battery).
Hi there, here is my problem.
I flashed Havoc V2 latest rom and i experience random reboots or shutdowns, including time reset. Problem is that i am away from PC for a few days and i can't try many things since i don't use an sd card, so full wipe is not an option right now.
Also, i noticed that time and date is reseting to rom's build date and not at a random one. Any ideas what is going wrong and how can i fix it will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

I was thinking maybe its a modem issue since i never flashed one (maybe there is an updated version that i missed, phone was sitting powered off with an old rr version for a long time) or a kernel issue, but i didn't see any reports on the havoc thread.

It doesn't help you right now but I've tested several Q ROMs and I've found crDroid 6.9 the most stable one.
With Havoc and AOSP I had issues while lineage doesn't offer that many individuality.
Used RR 7 by mobspyguy myself before switching as it got any longer patches.
Gotta admit that mine is only a backup device and I don't use it longer then 5 hours.
If you used the latest firmware before switching to custom ROM there's no newer modem anyhow.
Thanks a lot for the info. I'm gonna flash another rom when i get the chance to see if the problem is rom related and see how it works.
Thanks again

the emmc is dying
you can try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/100-fix-galaxy-note-4-emmc-error-random-t3859448
or try this
as long as you can (until reboots) - download quickly an app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl&hl=en
this app will stop the phone going in deep sleep
launch the app Wake Lock PowerManager - set it on partial wakeup (level 4), it's doing it's job pretty well , no big deal on battery consumption
my son has it a 910F and it's still working after 5 months with this app installed

Thanks, i was looking into this thread when i was searching for my problem and now i'm gonna give it a try when i get back home, since the wakelock app seems that is not working in my case. As i was afraid, it looks like a hardware issue after all.
