I've been quite happily using my Jolla for months now, but this day happened a thing that shocked me very much. My version is .7.16 Saapunki and I remember I'd updated Alien Dalvik before this day.

Addition: The phone was running all the time from setting up the alarm to noticing the alarm had failed so this has most likely nothing to do with switching off the device.

I was to have an appointment and to wake up for it I set up an alarm. A few hours after the alarm time I woke up and to my horror I had missed everything. The alarm hadn't sounded BUT ALSO the phone had failed to ring. It seemed that the incoming call sound had failed because I had 15 unanswered calls from the person I had been supposed to meet...

The Alarm clock looked perfectly normal at a glance. It showed me the alarm was active but when I tried to turn it off, the whole program crashed.

Although I really have no idea what caused this I'm reporting it because of its seriousness. I'm upset because the meeting would've been important and I just stood them up with no answer, no excuse. Hope that not many have nor will experience this.

not necessarily. I'm aware there are many other issues with alarm clock but none that I've read of describe crashing of the program or sounds. Who knows, this could also be a dupe of some sound issue.

Nevertheless, the alarm clock had never crashed before and it seemed there were no descriptions of it.

edit: I read again the suggested post and no, this has nothing to do with switching off the device. The phone was running all the time from setting up the alarm to noticing the alarm had failed. So this is not certainly a dupe, at least not of the mentioned post.

@sa.rasputin: Really excuse me, but do you even read what I write? The post in your last comment didn't talk about crashing nor about incoming call problems. Also the alarm didn't go off, even late, after I used the phone. Please don't throw similar-titled questions as "duplicates" at random.

your problem is duplicated because if you carefully read posts about the alarm clock you will realize that you are not alone. periodically popping up all the problems with the alarm clock of a different nature. and there is no relationship. sporadic error alarm. problem has existed for a long time and create a separate branch solely on your problem does not see the point, because it is one and the same problem with the alarm clock. that's why your post is duplicated!

addition: I just like you have a problem with the alarm clock. alarm clock also closes when i try to activate / deactivate the alarm.
