So I have been using my phones as an alarm clock for many many years now. I do it the same way every night. I go into the alarms and change the time and press save. BUT with my 2.2 update, instead of saving for the next day, it saves the alarm as that time but a week away. Its like the day counter doesn't move. I almost missed class this morning because I forgot to move the day I needed the alarm for so I woke up to no alarm 10 minutes before class and seeing my alarm set for next Tuesday.
Anyway...am I missing something?? Or is this a but that others have noticed. It is hard to remember to set the day when I have never had to do this before.

Same with me, seems the clock got messed up with 2.2. The day doesn't change when I choose the alarm. Also, it's happened before where I have the right day (it says alarm will go off in 8hrs etc.) but when I wake up the alarm is still set, but now for 7 days from now... It is very annoying, and I can't rely on it now.
So when you created the alarm, did you set the alarm repeat to be daily? Just a thought otherwise the default is a one-time event and when you resave it will bump a week.
i dont want it as a daily alarm...if i go in and set the alarm time, and press save, it should update the day also. It has been that way for years of setting alarms on many different phones, and now that i updated to 2.2 it doesn't update the day. Why would i want to set an alarm for a week away? haha
You don't make it active on the days you don't want it. A one-time event sees that the time is past and makes it a week later. Don't ask me, complain to the coder. lol

a one time alarm on 2.1 worked perfect and exactly as expected. I shouldn't have to make a new one-time alarm OR change the day OR set it as a daily. I wake up at different times almost everyday. No offense, but i don't need instructions on how to set up my alarm!
i know how it works and how it should work, i'm asking if anyone else is having the problem.
I dont have this problem.
I do have a related problem. Its called a job. And I use my phone as my alarm to wake up every weekday morning at the same time. my alarm works great. Since I do not use it for a one-time alarm, it must have something to do with that.

cool man
Here's a description of the change:
On 2.1, clicking on a past "one time alarm" would change the day automatically to the following day, so the alarm worked for the morning you activated it on.
On 2.2, clicking on a past "one time alarm" won't change the day automatically to the following day, so the alarms' day must be set manually for the next morning.
Anyways, does someone have the 2.1 clock apk that they can upload here that we could try, and see if that's the problem?
This does not seem to be an across the board issue. Im one that does not have the issue.

I flashed back to JH7 today. Posted for your amusement!
Ehh, the 2.1 Clock doesn't work with 2.2 from just replacing it, oh well... Maybe they'll fix it with the final build.

Figured as much, system apps have to be different. Worth a try!
Since I installed 2.2 it seems as if the alarm has changed. In 2.1 if I had the alarm on wednesday 8:00 and I wanted to activate it the same time for thursday I would only reactivate it and it would change the day to thursday.
In 2.2 the day remains on wednesday and wont ring until 6 days later, which forces me to manually change the day everytime.
Am I doing something wrong?

I noticed the same behavior and would also like to know if there's way to get the clock back to "normal"
Does anybody know?
The way i fixed it was to simply enable every day in the settings
This is my first post/question.... ever here, so go easy on me. I've been searching the interwebs and can't seem to find anything similar to my problem.
As background (may not mean anything), a few days's ago I downloaded the new Bitspin Timely alarm clock after news of Google's purchase. At some point I made it the default clock when Google Now asked for the program to use when setting an alarm. I swear the alarm worked once or twice before all of this, but can't remember now.
Whatever happened, my morning alarm doesn't go off on time. Its always about 25 min late (sometime after I've woken the phone from daydream). I even tried switching back to the regular alarm clock, and it wont go off in the morning on time. Uninstalled Timely, still no dice.
The kicker is that when I test it during the day, everything works perfect. It's like the phone goes in to such a deep sleep (that's a thing, right?) overnight that it just doesn't catch the time in the morning. Thankfully I have a decent internal clock and have had the privilege of just watching the time pass the alarm time and nothing happen. My other thought was that maybe its related to Moto Assist. I set the do not disturb, but its set to end well before my alarm goes off. I've cleared its data and disabled that for tonight to see what happens.
I REALLY don't want to factory reset. And I can't root to use some of the detailed monitoring apps because my company makes us use that stupid Good for Enterprise.
Anyhow, if anyone has any thoughts, I'd appreciate it.
Haven't tried out my alarm clock yet but will set it up for tonight and see what happens. Hope that it works or I'll have to buy an alarm clock for my dorm room.

I'm just throwing this out there. Under Settings > Date and Time> is Automatic time chosen? Is the correct time zone chosen? Is it off by 25 minutes to your time vs you set it at 0600 and it goes off 0625?.
When in doubt try clearing the App Data and try again. I'd suggest testing the alarm before going to bed of course I use Timley too and have no real issues with it yef

I thought I had this fixed... worked perfect the night after I cleared cashe/data from the clock, timely, and moto assist. I even disabled the quiet time on the moto assist app. Worked great through Tuesday, but then yesterday it was 4 min late, then 35 min today. Its also a bit strange that when I look at the Timely widget, it was a little under a min behind the system time. I'm sort of at a loss at this point. Would this be software, or possibly hardware?

just curious what's wrong with the built-in alarm clock? i've been using it since it's been bundled with android and it works great.
I love the stock alarm clock as well. I should have been more clear with the issue. I tested both the stock and Timely alarms and both seem to suffer the same issue. So I don't think my problem is with the app itself, but rather however the alarms work.

I've been using Alarm Clock Plus (paid) and haven't had any problems with it setting off alarms at the set time.
I've been using Timely and the stock alarm with no issues on a nightly basis. It seems odd that yours isn't going off on time. Timely and the stock clock are always in sync on my Moto X. It sounds to me that you have no other choice but to try a factory reset. There is a glitch in the system somewhere.
Resurrected
I hate to resurrect an old, dead thread, but consider this one resurrected. I just had this exact same problem occur with my Samsung Note 2. The alarm went off late, (both stock alarm clock and Timely), and it's incrementally getting worse. I'm running an unofficial version of Lollipop, but the alarms worked perfectly up until this weekend.
Anyone have a solution, yet?

I was having this problem. Thought it was Amplify or Greenify. Tried everything. Then..... I discovered that somehow DayDreams was turned on. I turned it off and it immediately solved the issue for me.
Unfortunate
That is truly unfortunate to hear, as I use Timely and my clock with the Daydream function of Android every day. I dock my phone, and Daydream immediately kicks in the Timely clock as my sleeping screen saver. I will test this out to see if it's the problem.
Hi guys, hope somebody will help me. I have an Urbane, and a Nexus 5X, both upgraded to the last versions of Wear and Marshmallow. The thing is, I can't make a daily wake up alarm to work. Every night I put both the watch and the phone on plane mode; and the watch's screen off. Both have the same alarm set: 7am from Monday to Friday, but only the phone's works. I've made a factory reset of the Urbane, and nothing has changed. I don't know what else I can do. Any thoughts?
Hi
Mi5 64gb, recently purchased and just upgraded to the miui7 latest update that prevents Android Pay from working ( bah!)5. Everything fine with it apart from the clock alarm in the morning. It wakes me up on time, but does not show the clear/snooze option and I can't turn it off.
My guess is that my "night clock" app is hogging the screen and the alarm snooze screen is indeed "underneath" but not accessible.
Anyone got any tips on how to use a night clock - happy to pay for one - that plays nicely with the system alarms ?
Cheers
I'm having a much worse issue than this my alarm just doesn't go off another forum suggested using the stock charger which worked for one day but not since?
