Hi! I am using the 4.0 Biggy with Cube by ttran. Its great and I like it a lot the only weird thing I've had to deal with is that it seems like everytime I set an alarm it goes off, regardless of if it is the current one set, or if it is even set.
Example.
I set alarm 1 for 9am and then I change it to 10am. Then I change it to 8am. Then I change it to 9am. The alarm will go off at 8am, and then two alarms (it will give me two notices and I can hear my alarm ring tone echoing, meaning two tones are going off) and then the alarm will go off at 10am.
Even then this doesn't seem to happen consistently, but it happens enough to where its starting to be an inconvenience. This morning i had 3 alarms pop up at my normal alarm time, with 3 tones overlaying each other pretty much going off at approximately the same time.
Does anybody know what the issue is here, I know the Dash had certain alarm problems where it went off everyday at the same time but its not quite the same as mine.
Please advise, thanks!
winmo has always been slightly spotty when it came to alarms. i suggest a third party program
I've used Memmaid to delete duplicate notifications/alarms. I don't know what freeware is out there that can duplicate this function but I'm sure there is something.
I have a problem. I use my phone as an alarm to wake me up for work.
I have set the alarm and checked it, and it works when the screen is on. But when the screen times out, the alarm doesn't start.
Anyone have this problem and know how to solve it?
My sister has the same problem with hers, anyone got a fix? :S
Hi,
I had the same problem, you solve it going to alarm setting and increasing the volume up to max... this seems to solve the issue.
I've got the same problem but only when there is not the phone sim inside.
I have this problem too. I solve it by shutdown the tattoo and then start it.
happens to mine too, I have to set it as "stay awake" so the alarms will work porperly =.=
I used to have this problem before which gets resolved by restarting.
However, I was using Astro as a task killing program which caused the error even after putting the clock on the ignore list.
Actually, using Taskiller solved the issue.
Assuming its not a taks manager thing...
On the Tattoo (and Android), there are quite a number of volume controls compared to a normal phone. Ringer is handled seperate from Alarm, then there is also Notifications, System....
I had this problem (a silent alarm), and so have a number of others. Some combination of apps turn down the alarm volume. But there is a simple way to solve it.
Instal Audio Manager from the market. This lets you see all the different settings. You will probably see the alarm turned down to 0. Turn it up and the alarm works. It also has a widget so you can keep an eye on the different volumes.
I did worry that I would have to check the alarm volume every night, but actually it seems I don't have to -- not sure why, but the alarm is very seldom at 0 now.

i had this problem once - after using task killer and the default kill tasks function - dont think the ignore list works that well
ignore the clock process and deactivate update clock at network
I stopped using ATK, and the alarms works just fine right now.

I agree - ive had one issue with the alarm after using tk - dont bother with task killing anymore - its overrated!!
Has anyone had the problem where the alarm on the alarm clock rings a single time and them stops ringing?
I have the checkbox in the control panel checked for repeat sound yet it seems to have started only ringing once (which is really annoying if you're a heavy sleeper).
Any help would be appreciated.
Yeah, I have that too. The only thing I've found it to be sure your reminders are on and it will remind you in a few minutes that you missed your alarm. Unfortunately the reminder tone will play at the end of your alarm tone as well so I picked a reminder that sounds OK with my alarm....
Hopefully someone will have a better solution.
p.s. I've noted that if attached to external power the alarm will repeat but if not, it won't. Seems it sleeps right after the alarm if alarm sounds when screen is locked and won't wake to continue the alarm.....
I suspected it was a power saving method but it's a pretty lousy method if it breaks the primary usage.
I decided to install a 3rd party alarm clock called Klaxon. It's free and it works great.
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone else is having alarm issues? I got the s7 last weekend and I work night shift so I set my alarm for 2:50pm. Everyday it goes off at 2:30 but with a different alarm tone.
nope. mine goes off daily at 630 on the dot.

Make sure there's not a conflicting app that changes things! I was using audio manager pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartandroidapps.audiowidget&hl=en
for a while. After the Marshmallow update.....forget it. It would reset my notification sounds every time it was active from the toggles I set up. Drove me up the wall for a couple of weeks because I couldn't figure out why the phone was doing that.
Some apps have a setting for the ringtone and if left at "default" it may actually pick up the actual original default of the phone, not anything you set as default. That's what this app did. Basically, for me- what was happening was every time the app to scheduled the sounds to be at a certain volume, as soon as it would change back, it would reset to the default sound.
I went one by one uninstalling apps to see if it persisted, if so, I'd reinstall an app, then go on to the next with the same process. I lucked out and found it after a few apps which was causing it. I ended up switching to Volume Control https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=netroken.android.persistfree&hl=en and it does everything the audio manager pro app did that I wanted and more.
(for the record, I wanted a widget that showed the levels, single toggle widgets for certain levels like mute, off, low, loud, as well as scheduling multiple time frames for different days to have the sounds at certain levels),
Anyway- point is, it could be in an app that you have that manages the sounds or alarms or something of that nature....you might think about checking to see if it impacts things by the uninstalling/reinstalling process until you narrow it down.
Smart alarm
at some point of the day i noticed my notification sound no longer working.
I got all the msgs on my notification but with out sound.
turning off and on didnt fix. only the battery pull worked.
it happened like every once a day. some times I have to do battery pull twice a day.
I had this phone for a wk now.
anyone having notification sound issue?
even the turn off screen and on sound muted.
There's a few bugs, nougat is brand new, they'll fix things. My headphone kept buzzing one time until a restart
Its not just you. And I don't think its exactly something to do with Android 7.0
If you look at how your audio menu is when you change the ringer volume, you'll see that when the phone is set to vibrate, it actually MUTES the other two sliders.. it doesn't set them to vibrate. With that in mind, it seems more likely LG has a bug, than Android 7.0 having a bug.
Having this problem as well with my H910 (AT&T). It's very frustrating indeed. What's even worse is that it seems sporadic in nature, sometimes I will get a notification chime, sometimes I won't. As skyedream said, a battery pull is the only way to get consistent notification sounds, if only temporarily.
I think I get this too. Often I pull my phone out of pocket to find I had a text that I never heard.

I had this problem too yesterday where it was just frozen. Did a restart and all seemed ok after. First time that happened.
This happens to me as well. Also, I will get double notification sounds at times. Like an echo. Or, a different sound mixed with my selected sound. A reboot fixes. Have to do it a couple times a day. Very annoying.
No sound for notifications + no web video playback
I also have same issue with notifications. No pattern on what causes this, but a reboot gets rid of this (just for sometime! and the problem is back). I have also noticed apps not working smoothly and unable to play web videos including from Youtube app and Facebook App. Overall, tad disappointed with the software quality on this set.

Good call, thanks! I also notice that even though I have Sound Settings-Volume-Touch & Feedback sounds Off, I still get haptic feedback vibration on keyboard while typing this reply to you. It goes away when I go into Sound Settings-Vibration Strength, & turn slider off for Vibrate on tap. The Settings software isn't connecting the overall Volume Profile with the Vibrate Strength settings it seems. I don't know enough to know whether this is Android or LG. Under Vibrate Strength you can control notifications too, though haven't yet tested. Hope this helps til it gets fixed.

I just tested texting...even though on quick settings slider notifications for text are grayed out, while call setting show vibrate only, in the full settings menu, under Vibrate Strength, you can slide the vibration strength up...I did this, sent myself a text, and phone vibrated the notification. I think it's messed up that I can't shut my call notification off completely, including nvibrate quickly with volume key or quick settings. Have to go into full settings menu sound & select silent. Please fix this Android/LG.

Ya, I have the exact same problem... (I have a H990DS)
I can't seem to even fix it with a reboot.
I have emailed LG about the problem - we'll see what they say...

I experience the same as you. I usually clear regents and then hit restart and all my notification sounds come back and videos. I'm just wondering, are you using any type of ad blocker? I use the ad block browser and I've noticed that whenever I open my browser, that's when my notifications get muted.
Issue resolved after update
Hi, looks like this issue is resolved with the update I got in January 2017 end. But not sure what caused it to fail in first place. But as of now, all is well after the update. Cheers!
I still have this problem over here on T-Mobile. Very annoying.
Anyone ever find a fix? Having these issues on a new LG V20 US Unlocked connected to Verizon.
Bumping this to see if anyone has found a solution to this. My V10 started muting notifications when the ringer volume was set to vibrate on one of its later updates. I figured it was a glitch in my phone since I didn't see anyone else complaining about it. This was one of the reasons i decided to upgrade to a V20. I was pretty surprised that it did the exact same thing and it's apparently by design. Who in their right mind would think this was a good idea?
I'm not sure of the cause, but I had many calendar reminder alarms fail to sound over several days when I got this V20. I tried different calendar apps and ended up with one called aCalendar. It works OK most of the time, but there is still a serious issue. If ANY other kind of notification happens to sound right when a calendar alarm needs to sound, the calendar will NEVER sound its reminder notification for the alarm. I've had this happen several times with incoming text or social networking message notifications. I hear those, and then the subsequent alarm that should have sounded concurrently is silent. I've had to set 2 reminders for the same important event, spaced 10 minutes apart, to try to reduce the odds of this issue hijacking an important notification. I've not seen this exact problem ever before on any Android device. My US Unlocked V20 is 100% stock. No idea what to do about it. But from what I can glean online, neither LG nor Verizon plan to push any future updates on the V20, so we're stuck.
For contact selecting unique notification tones that actually stopped working
I got this LG v20 and I loved it...still do....but... how do I keep certain text notification tones thst i select to not change back to default?...on its own? Crazy. I use zedge ap to download ringtones n notification tones. Maybe there is an issue there?
@Dkb123,
If you could please add some punctuation to your post, it might be easier to read so someone can understand your problem and help you .
I am using a rooted HTC One m10 with Viper ROM and am having the same problem. Echos notification noises, turns off alarm and notification sounds, and it is beyond annoying. I have already had to reset it twice to try to fix it and nothing has worked. I have no idea what is causing it but when I try to open my alarm app it says it was disabled and could have been caused by a system time change (which didnt happen) or battery saving (where I have it whitelisted). I will try disabling my ad-blocker. I'm not sure how those things could be connected but since it was suggested I will give it a go. I am consulting all of the developers I know about this but so far nobody has an answer. I am kind of starting to freak out because I need my phone to work. I have 3 kids under the age of 6 in school and need to know when someone has to get in touch with me. Before the last reset, I also saw that when my notification was disabled and I went back in to reenable it, it had been switched back to the sound I had selected the time before that. One more note. When I go in to check my notification noises, all of them, my ringer, notifications, and alarm, are all blank for about one half second before they repopulate and then show the correct tones. If it were as simple as it being my ROM someone would have posted it on the thread because it is a pretty big problem to have gone unnoticed. Is it possible we are all running an app or have a shared setting that is causing this to happen to only us. I had to dig pretty hard to find this thread in the first place. It might help if we posted a list of our apps, what do you guys think?

Hi. You posted this in the wrong area. This is for the LG V20. Try searching the HTC One M10 area for a solution. Someone there might be able to help you.
