New to Xiaomi so this is somewhat different. Up until now, with all the Android phones I had, when the alarm clock goes off, the Clock App shows up on the phone screen where I have the options of turning it off or snooze, without having to unlock the screen. The Xiaomi Mix 2 is different. It required me to unlock the screen before I can access the Clock App to stop the alarm. Is there an option to stop the alarm clock without unlock the screen?

Hi All,
I want to use my Nexus as a night-time bedside alarm clock.
So, I know that I can use the stock clock app, and tap it to make it go dim, but after a few minutes, the screen saver kicks in and the display switches off.
The only way to get it back on is to press the power button.
Is there a way to leave the clock app running on screen all through the night?
Do I have to purchase an actual dock for this?
Or does the phone need to be charging for this to work?
Cheers.
I think a long press on the blank space (turning the background black...not dim) will work?
Hmm, I see that makes a difference (totally black screen, clock in blue), but the screen still switches off after the normal time...
Developers options, stay awake while charging.

I have the desk dock for my GSM Galaxy Nexus (AT&T) that I bought through the Play Store. In 4.1, before I went to bed I would do the following:
1. Put phone in dock, screen comes on with clock in horizontal orientation.
2. Touch the alarm icon
3. Set my alarm
4. Touch the clock button to get back to the clock
5. Finally just touch the screen to dim it into low light mode
Now with 4.2, some things have changed:
1. Put phone in dock, screen comes on with clock
2. Touch the screen, home screen appears
3. Navigate to the clock app
4. Touch the alarm icon
5. Set the alarm
6. Touch the clock button
7. Finally long press the time to get back to low light clock mode
Am I doing something wrong here? It seems like the clock that shows up when I put the phone in the dock should take me to the normal clock app when I touch the screen but it goes to the home screen instead. I realize this is pretty minor in the scheme of things, but I really liked how the old way sort of reminded me to set an alarm when I put it in the dock.
It's because you have daydream set to start when the phone is docked. You can go to settings> Display, and turn it off.

I thought about that but would that prevent anything from happening when I docked my phone? I would still like the clock app to come up when I dock. Maybe it still will if I turn off the daydream?
I flashed CM10 a few weeks ago and when using the stock alarm clock, about once a week, the alarm will go off, but I cannot turn on the screen to either dismiss or snooze the alarm. The screen will stay black, but the menu and back keys light up. The only way to turn off the alarm and get the screen back on is to hold down the power button until it reboots.
Has anyone else had this issue or can you recommend a better alarm that I can flash?

What do you have your minimum clock speed at for the cpu? If it is too low your phone may not wake

I really like having the next alarm time showing on the lock screen since I rely on my phone as my primary alarm clock. This way I can just quickly glance at the screen without waking the phone to double-check the next alarm time.
On my OGP, this shows up when the screen times out before the PIN lock delay. But once it PIN locks, it no longer shows the alarm time. Is there any way to get this to show up even on the PIN lock screen? (ironically, my Galaxy S3 was the opposite - the alarm time only showed up in the PIN lock screen!)
So last night I found that the settings of Google Now has a setting to allow rotation. I was ecstatic since I could now have my phone in landscape mode while on the home screen (I know I can do that with other after market launchers). Well, I plugged it in, and set it on the Lego Fi stand on landscape and let it go into daydream mode with my clock (my bedside clock rather than buying a dedicated alarm clock). This morning at 5 when my alarm was going off the screen had frozen and I couldn't stop the alarm. I had to power off and restart. I also saw that I had some kind of a application has stopped message, but I couldn't read it because of the dim screen. My phone is full stock with systemless root and I kept the stock recovery. Has anyone else come across this yet?
