Stock clock/alarm = late for work(ie its borked)

[subzero1313]

So its come to my(and my bosses) attention that the stock alarm is just made of fail. 3 nights Ive set my alarm and 3 mornings, it doesn't go off. Thankfully I have my N96 as a backup, but ummm my "superphone" shouldn't need a backup. Now I noticed this morning after I woke the phone up at 8, the flip clock was still at 7:30, it then immediately flipped to 8. Im assuming this is whats causing the problem. Anyone else have this issue? Know of a fix? Im sure there's other alarms in the Market, anyone have a good suggestion? Thank you

Am I the only one that still uses an actual alarm clock for an alarm clock? My old Touch Pro had the same issue, but I only ever used it when I was away from home. I've not tested it on my Evo yet, but I would assume it's something to do with the Sense UI (as it's the only thing in common between the Touch Pro and the Evo).

I have had this issue and assumed it was a process running in the background that I've killed. So I started rebooting the phone before I go to bed just to be on the safe side. Do you use any Task Manager apps? I'm learning to be a little more careful with them.

Ive never had an issue with the alarm clock.Goes off twice every morning for me,once at 610am and again at 7am just in case i were to wake up at 610am and turn the clock off instead of snooze.

Hasnt failed me one time..Maybe try a hard reset? Also the clock showing a different time upon wakeing happens on my phone too so i doubt thats the issue.

I had a similar problem...and it was the task mgr I had installed. I had not put the clock in the exceptions list. Same as zone23's reply above.

I use mine every morning without any problems.

Like others have said, if you use a task manager, make an exception for the clock.

I learned it the hard way too.

Same thing here, but everything is working great for me after that

Or just download Alarm Clock Plus.You still need to set it to Ignore if you use a task manager (I don't). This program is full of win and It even makes me do a math problem before it turns itself off. Lmbo.
