Is anyone elses stupid alarm not going off?

I don't know whatis going om but my alarm never seems to go off. I set it the day before and then instead of waking up an hour before work I wake up five minutes before workand its friggin annoying. Has anyone else had the same issue or can anyone just el me that I'm an idiot and teach me I'm the ways of the SenseUI alarm?

Re: Is anyone elses stupid alarm not going off?

I had the same problem the first time I used the alarm... turns out that you cant just click the back arrow after setting the alarm. You have to click done, in order for it to set... try it out now if you can and see if im right.

Re: Is anyone elses stupid alarm not going off?

r u using the alarm function within the clock? also do u have other processes running that might interfere? android task killer does a good job listing apps/processes running and allow for killing of processes. Free in the market.

check with that first....and see

Use the "Ignore List" if you're running Advanced Task Killer

Re: Is anyone elses stupid alarm not going off?

Is Android stable enough to use as an everyday alarm clock (assuming I don't use a task killer)? Coming from the WM world this was not an option.
