HD7 bugs with alarmclock? - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anyone else experiencing these bugs?
This usually happens after an alarm has went off or if i have not noticed that one has been going off.
* The bottom speaker just turns off, no sound is received. So i'll get a phone call and i answer but no one can hear me, reboot fixes the issue but wtf.
* just 10 min ago the alarm went off to remind me of something and i hit dismiss and the phone went back to the main tiles. I tried to lock the phone and it didn't do anything. I hit the back button and nothing happened, i then try to navigate and the screen is frozen. Live tiles are still moving but no input is read. The power button doesn't work as well, i had to pull the battery.
Anyone have these problems?

I have the same issue about the alarm. I have multiple alarm setup and then if one of them alarms go off and i didn't turn it off the screen just froze, there is no input from the touchscreen but the tiles are working. I guess it is a bug in the programming that disables the touchscreen if the alarm that goes off wasn't turn off.

Hopefully this is fixed with the rumored update on thursday.

Alarm Bug
+1 with the alarm bug. Hope the software update fixes the poor sound level as well, as a working alarm would be nice but a working alarm that i can hear is much better

+1
Same problem
I use Nokia X2 for alarm clock

Alarm Problems
I use an app called Nightstand clock from the Marketplace. The sound of the alarm tones is much louder than wp7 alarm tones. Give it a try it hasn't let me down yet & more importantly has never froze. It can even run under the lockscreen. It hasn't affected the sound on my HD7 either.

Well i have the same problem and for now i download alarm clock 7 and only works if the phone its not lock cause in lock status the alarm does not sound.

I also have this problem
alarm goes off, and if i don't hit dismiss and let it run, the mic gets turned off
grrr

+1, i am also having the same issue

+1, i am also having the same issue. :laugh:
I have HTC HD7

Alarm not repeating

Hello,
on all ROMs I tried, the alarm is not repeating its sound. I'm using TLR's rom (1.37). My friend uses 1.35 Rom and not working there either: better, when selected 'repeat sound' it is not playing at all.
Someone has a workaround, coz this thing is not waking me up at morning
I am having the same problem. First alarm is ok with the predefined alarm tone but the second or repeat alarm is click sound. Hardly hear it unless u already wake up.
yes, seems like it repeats before the alarm is finished, so instantly starts repaiting.
use pTravelAlarm all the while....never fail me....
Fizz alarm's interface is nice, but does not really work as good as above....failed to wake diamond and me up several time...

Can't turn off Alarm Clock [Froyo]

I've got a very strange problem with my alarm clock.
Let's say, i set the alarm at 9:30am, but i wake up at 9am and turn the alarm off, the alarm will still start to ring at 9:30am, even though i turned it off. That small icon with the alarm clock disappears as well, but anyways the alarm starts to ring.
It is espacially annoying when you're in uni and your phone starts to ring (even though the alarm is off and it is in silent mode).
Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
I'm on JP6 with JPM Modem and SpeedMod Kernel.

I had the same issue on a stock eclair, however I never tried it on Froyo.
But it's indeed very annoying.
Is there no way to fix this issue, or has it already been resolved in newer firmwares?

[Q] HELP: alarm going off forever

My alarm went off at 6:15 this morning. Usually I would stop it and set a new alarm to allow myself 10-30 more minutes of sleep.
This morning my alarm wouldn't stop. The only way I could figure out to make it shut up was to turn the alarm volume all the way down... Shut down my phone and powered it back on, turned the alarm volume back up... It's STILL ringing. I deleted the app data for my clock (I use the stock clock app) it's still ringing...
Someone help, I don't want to have to use an actual alarm clock like a caveman.

Great Idea .. or just try changing the alarm sound
you can also force close the clock app in app info

Alarm muted when using 'side keys behaviour' - can somebody test (quick test!)

Hi I was wondering if I was alone on this but ever since the new update, my alarm would not sound (but screen turns on) if the alarm is using either the Snooze or Dismiss 'Side keys behaviour'. The alarm does sound when the side keys behaviour is set to none though! I've tried both using mp3 files and the default ringtones.
Extra details:
I found that using default ringtones will make the alarm sound BUT for only half a second and never again.
Phone is not on silent mode and alarm volume is up.
Phone is up to date, tried restarting but no differences.
edit: I found that the alarm will not sound as long as the global volume slider for alarms is less than or equal to that of the volume slider on the individual set alarm! this is a weird occurrence
edit: scratch that
Thanks for reading!.
Hello there,
having same issues with alarm since 5.1.1 update. Last 4 days alarm worked fine for 2 days, did not work for other 2 days. Screen is lit up, but there is no sound.
Did not really check what causes it, but I have side keys behaviour on dismiss for sure.
Guess I'll try to increase the global volume slider and see what's up.
Thanks for the post!

I've had this problem since day 1 of upgrading to 5.1.1 from 4.4.4.
If I set the side keys action to "none" then everything works just fine, but as you mentioned, if set to dismiss or snooze, then the phone seems to automatically perform the action without me touching it. That's why we only hear the alarm for a split second. I was late to work two days in a row before I figured this out.
Though, what exactly do you mean by the global volume dictates whether or not the alarm will sound? I'm not sure I understood. I may need to try this.

You know when you press the side volume button that dropdown pops up at the top of the screen? If you click the button on the right of that dropdown, you get options to change the volume of Ringtone, Media, and Alarm volume; I called this the global volume. Then in our alarm edit there is a "Alarm volume" slider for each alarm. So I think I found that as long as the individual alarm volume is greater than that global alarm volume setting, the alarm will sound.
Could test this with a quick alarm one minute from now
I caught my bus late twice because of this I thought I was just getting used to my loud neighbour's 5 am parties.
I'm just glad I'm not the only one having this issue. I posted about it nearly 2 weeks ago and got no response. I did a full wipe before upgrading, then re-wiped again, then flashed the US firmware from two different members. Nothing solved the problem. Now I have to use the screen to snooze or cancel the alarm, which is harder to do when you're half-asleep.
The global volume slider thingie works... kind of...
if the global volume slider for alarms is higher than volume slider for specific alarm, it will sound even with side keys behaviour set to dismiss.
However, once the alarm sounds, it sets the global slider to the same level as is the alarm slider that just triggered. This means on the next day alarm won't sound, bcs global and specific alarm sliders are even (and even is not good enough, global just has to be higher).
Cheers

Geeze - that sucks. I can't believe only a hand-full of us have this problem. What's the deal and how can we fix it?

Question Sometimes alarm has no sound in silent mode

Hi, sometimes I will put my phone on silent and on a couple of occasions, I have been awake when my alarm is due to go off, and the screen changes to the alarm screen and has the slider to turn it off, but there is no sound at all.
Most of the time there is, but I wonder why sometimes there isn't.
Has this happened to anyone else?
I have checked the alarms, and they all have the volume set to full.
Regards
James
It happened to me too. Today too. I would like to understand if there is a issue or I am to switch off the alarm while sleep
