I’m afraid I don’t know if that’s possible on the HTC Hero, but good luck trying to find out!

Indeed Bob, this will not fix an alarm that does not go off at all. This fix is specifically dealing with when the alarm triggers but doesn’t make the alarm sound.

If you’re having issues with the alarm not triggering at all, then that is another problem entirely.

Fortunately I’ve not encountered the problem you describe, yet, but I can imagine it’s incredibly frustrating, especially if it’s something that Google has to fix and you can do nothing about

this will not work all the time. trust me, i’ve tried all the “fixes”. until google fix the firmware to speak with the hardware properly, the software clock pauses/switches off after a period of time in standby mode. this makes it “miss” the clock and so the alarm doesn’t spring. alarm going off and not making a sound/vibrating is a minor issue compared to alarm not going off at all…
