Disappearing alarm icon

[cq1125]

If I set an alarm or open the alarm app with an alarm set (doesn't matter which one - stock or otherwise) the alarm icon appears in my status bar, but it only stays for a few minutes, then flickers and disappears. I have to reopen the app to get it to show up again. It doesn't affect whether my alarm goes off or not, it's just a minor annoyance. I read somewhere that it was an issue with Pandora, but I uninstalled it and still nothing. Thought it might have been a 4.4 bug, but it still happens on 4.4.2. Anyone else have this?

Nope, my Timely alarm icon remains all the time.

I cleared the system app cache and the icon reappeared, so perhaps Pandora left some residue. Hopefully it sticks!

Well, turns out the issue still remains. Not entirely sure what I'll do next.... I could probably try a reset, but I don't think the effort of setting up my phone again is worth the small annoyance.

Try a different alarm app.

I use Clock JB+. It's very similar to stock with some additional options. And the statusbar icon stays put.

I've noticed that too but have had started having problems with the alarm going off. I actually had the exact same problem on my Galaxy S4, tried a different alarm app and it still wouldn't go off. Best I can figure is some application is conflicting with it, I just need to figure out what.
P.S. No, I don't have a task killer.

I noticed the same behavior on my Moto x. I use timely for all my alarms and the icon stays put in the notifications bar.

After trying several, Timely seems to be the only one that remains for me.

It's definitely a bug in 4.4.2 or a conflict with an app. It's happening on my Nexus 5, as well. I think I may try Timely and see if it sticks.
