Phone not waking up for alarm

Hey guys. I am running helmis R3, and my alarms don't seem to be waking the phone up. I have tried Spb Time, and the installed alarm program to create alarms on Monday through Friday at 6am, but they never go off in the morning. When I wake up and turn my phone on, then the alert usually pops up and plays my alarm. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

*UPDATE*

The alarm is still not working. When I press the power button in the morning, I see the time change from whatever to 6:30 (or whatever time it is), then the alarm notification pops up.

It looks to me like the time isnt updating on the phone while its in standby, so the alarm doesnt trigger. Does anyone have a solution for this issue?

I've been having that problem since the first day I got my (first) 6700. no advice, but this has caused many a painful call to the boss, girlfriend, etc. when I sleep in or miss meetings. Lame. This phone is very unreliable. (But I can't leave it.)

I had the same problem before. Now I am using pTravelAlarm, this one solved the problem.

i had this problem with a rom with integrated PHONEALARM program. i reflashed to a diferrent rom.

also i have my phone set NOT to sleep when plugged in. so that would be a workaround for you.

Yeah, I figured that would be a solution as well. I have my only charger with the cradle at my office, but I ordered a charger/battery combo off of ebay. That should be coming sometime this week. Are we even sure the phone always wakes up when a call comes in?

Does anyone else have any experience with pTravelAlarm?
