[Q] Random Alarm on Moto 360 - Moto 360

So this morning I woke up to my Moto 360 vibrating at 5:17am. First I looked at my phone to see if there was an alarm set there, but there wasn't. I just dismissed it from my watch and went back to bed.
This is the first time this has happened, but I was curious to know if anyone else has experienced this before.

It just happened again. This time at 3:47am. What the hell is going on? Is my watch possessed?

your watch controls its own alarms. have you gone in to the apps and checked to see if you have a timer/alarm set up ?

I had no clue the watch had it's own alarm app. I thought it just tethered off the phone. Sure enough, there were two alarms in there which I never set. Now I'm curious to know how they got in there.
Oh well, they're deleted now, so they won't be waking me up any longer.
Thanks for your help!

i really wish there was an option to tether the two. it seems redundant, but if your phone isn't within arm's reach it would be handy both for setting and for responding.

Personally I think a vibrating is useless anyways. That wouldn't wake me up. Too bad it didn't have a small speaker for beeping.

alarm clock won't shut off

Ok on my LG my alarm won't shut off so I have to shut off the whole phone and reboot. This is very annoying. Is this a glitch on the LG?
Ok, I turned off my alarm clock and this sucker still turned on and I still had to reboot my phone for it to turn off. Is this a glitch from LG? or a glitch when you root your phone?

Neither but it is probably from messing around with your rooted phone.

I've never heard of such a glitch from rooting any phone. Try Un installing and installing different alarm clock apk
It's really annoying. I really don't like installing apps that my phone already has.
Sorry but I just found out what was causing this; it was an app that I really never even turned on but it was activated on its own. and it was the app that was giving me the headache of shutting off my phone in order to turn off the alarm. I don't know if I should mention the app.

Phone goes into Do Not Disturb mode on its own

I'm having issues, my phone goes into "Do Not Disturb" mode on it's own. I think it has something to do with the Android wear connection to my watch. I've reset the watch and checked to make sure it isn't set to turn on that mode. But still at random times my phone goes quiet. Curious to hear if anyone has had the same issue or a cure. Thanks!
yes i have the same issue with pixel xl & Huawei watch 🤔
Sent from my Pixel XL using XDA-Developers mobile app
I have the same issue as well. It also happens on calls.
It's a new feature in 7.1.1
You have to disable the automatic rules that are created in settings. I just deleted all the premade ones in there and my issue went away.

I have an Android Wear watch and have the same problem. Are you saying the deleting the built-in Weekend, Weeknight, and Event rules fixed it for you?

I have done this too and my phone goes into DnD mode when I make or take phone calls. It becomes an issue when I get off the phone about 50% of the time it stays in DnD mode and I have to manually turn DnD mode off. Anyone found a work around for this yet?
I posted this to fix it. Its a hidden menu https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/how-to-off-disturb-section-using-volume-t3598695
Has anyone solved this? My Pixel XL keeps turning DND on when I've manually turned it off. I do not use a smart watch or any other accessory. And I have already deleted the single Automatic Rule which I programmed (my phone didn't come with any pre-installed rules). I'm a doctor and keep missing super-important phone calls because my phone isn't ringing. (It's sitting in a cradle on my desk, charging -- so I know I'm not accidentally hitting the volume down button.)
Thanks!

The only sure fire way, if you're sure it's not an app you installed or setting you set, is to factory reset including wiping system OR flashing stock via fastboot. I mean technically if you had the time and you didn't wanna do all that you could boot the phone into safe mode, then wait and see if it does the same thing. If it doesn't , you know it's an app you have installed.

Notifications Stopped Working

About every few months it seems that for no reason what so ever my notifications stop working on my watch and I have to reset it. Does this happen to anyone else? It's very frustrating.
Never happened on my LTE model...

i kind of have something similar but instead of stopping, it can take 5 to 10mins to get them.
i believe it has something to do with battery optimization where something related to the galaxy wearable app gets dozed or something. so to me i think its on the phone side and not the watch.
Happened to me
Yes this just happened to me too. Very frustrating.

i believe it maybe the galaxy wearable app. for about a week now i don't get any email notifs, only texts. everything was working well for a while there.
Check the app on your phone. I had same issue and looked into notification settings and some were changed. I wonder if app update changed my settings.
Theater Mode

Somehow "Theater Mode" got turned on my GWA. I turned it off & notifications came back like before. I am not sure if this was just a coincidence.

Question [RESOLVED] New P6P having odd issues already - Alarm and Google app

Brand new phone from Google less then a week old. It came with November .36 update. Havnet unlocked or rooted yet. Only installed a few apps.
Issue 1: Alarm keeps getting set to whatever it wants whenever it wants.....if I tap the phone to see the screen, more often than not, there will be an Alarm set for 5-10 minutes into the future. However, I did NOT set any alarms. AND, the alarm never actually rings. If I go back, the Alarm will be for 5-10 minutes into the future.....and this just keeps happening.
Issue 2: This just started yesterday, the Google App is coming up empty of information, cant seem to get it back....

That sounds familiar. I haven't had the issue but I know others have reported something similar with a simple fix. Might want to use the search box limited to the P6P section only for "alarm" and you should find the posts about it.

Thanks for that, will search a bit for Alarm. And yes, have rebooted, didnt help. Havent wiped cache yet, but probably give that a try too! Thx!!!
Ok, Found a post saying Tasker was the cause.....so gonna play with the Tasker settings but I had that setting to Never so should be working......
Ok, now found my error on the Google app.......I tweaked the setting off called "Discover" and thats what makes it all disappear. Seems to me that if you have that turned off then whats the point of the Google app?!?! Anyways, my own error.....
Awesome, glad you were able to fix it.

Question New issue with Clock/Alarm

Alrighty, so in updating to the latest version Monday, I accidentally forgot to remove the -w flag and wiped my phone....my bad! I've gotten it almost back to where it was but have a new issue with Clock/Alarm. No matter what I do or try, I have a persistent "Alarm" on the Lockscreen. When I tap to wake the phone, it shows an alarm for 10 minutes in the future, under the Time/Date/Temp. Very aggravating!!! It never actually triggers the Alarm, it just keeps moving ahead.....crazy! I have tried blowing away cache and data on the Clock but nothing has worked thus far.
Suggestions appreciated!!
Take a look at the "Bedtime" tab of the Clock app. That's what happened to me - it got enabled by default I think when I got my P6P.
Edit: On second thought, this might not be what I experienced. Very weird.

click on the alarm tab and see if there are any alarms (even if they aren't toggled). Tap and delete each alarm, the persistent alarm icon should disappear. I remember when I first got my P6P, there were two alarms shown under the alarm tab in clock app, when I hadn't even set up everything or touched the clock. I deleted the 2 scheduled alarms and voila! no more icon in statusbar

You know, I was thinking that was probably the ONLY thing I havent tried.....I tried setting a new one and that didnt work.
Sadly, that too does not fix me. Unreal. NEVER FORGET TO REMOVE THE -w FLAG STOOOPID!!!
Did you reboot your phone after setting and deleting the alarm? I know it sounds dumb, but sometimes we just need to reboot.

Yes I did, several times. I even received a Clock update while troubleshooting this and still the same. Its just annoying, as it doesnt actually ring or anything...it just keeps roughly 10 minutes ahead of the actual clock.

This problem sounds so familiar, but I can't think of anything else specifically. Maybe try Android Settings / Tips & support / "Ask the Help Community" or "Contact us" if you haven't already?
SOLVED.......so I finally figured it out and remembered from a few years ago.......This is "semi-known" Tasker issue....I ws troubleshooting something else in Tasker and while crawling through settings I realized (remembered) that one Setting tweaks the Alarm as noted.....The "Use Reliable Alarms" setting needs to be disabled. Its as simple as that!!! Drove me crazy.......

AH! Wow. I must've come across that sometime in the past as well, although I don't exactly remember it - it just seemed so familiar. Glad you found your solution!
