Hi Guys,

Has anyone else had this problem with the built-int alarm clock?

Sometimes it wakes the device up, displays the notification, flashes the led but does not play the sound!

I set the alarm to play sound, repeat, flash light.

It's a big problem for me, as I use my phone as my alarm clock!

I need to wake up!

x3, my alarm doesn't always wake up the device and play the sound. Sometimes it waits until I interact with the device until sounding the alarm.

I wonder if this has something to do with a recent discovery I made...

If you use SKTools and go to view the Notification queue, you will see MANY duplicate entries for WLMScheduler.

I just deleted 142 entries today!!

Basically it has 3 different event entries, but they get created again everytime WLMService starts, even if they already exist.

This pollution probably slows down the system significantly. Must be a coding oversight, as WLMService doesn't check if the events already exist.

So basically, everytime you restart your Touch you add 3 duplicate events to the Notifications queue!

This is something that shouldn't be happening, as the only way to solve the problem is to manually delete them with SKTools.

I will report the results now that I cleared all this garbage....

look up wakeup tweak or pocket alarm thweak. they eliminate these entries. i used wakeup tweak on my old ppc and 6600 and it worked. i'm testing it now on the touch.

Any updates on this? My alarm won't sound off if it's in sleep mode. I like to use my phone as an alarm for everything (including waking up) and just started reading about this problem. Anyone find a resolution?
