Hi;

Hope it helps and is relevant to your situation.

Open/slide down notification bar on lock screen.
Click on top right icon to open icon page. Click on pencil icon to edit buttons. From available buttons, drag "always interrupt" button to top section; active buttons.

Now when you open the notification bar you can press on the always interrupt button which will then say; priority only and the sound button will say Sound (priority).

Now go to; apps/settings/sound and notification/Interruptions and you can choose the options that you will want to occur when pressing on the Always interrupt button. It states that "Alarms are always considered priority interruptions".

It now becomes a one button press.

Mute is to have no notifications at all (alarm, txt, vibrate, wife talking,etc.)
Always interrupt will allow alarm and what you set as priorities, with sound or vibrate.
Two different functions.

On my S5 with verizon.

Press the "always interrupt" icon which then says:"Priority only".

The sound icon changes to "Sound (Priority)

Pictures attached.

I don't use airplane mode.

I don't have a flip case on my phone but the same thing happened to me. I was able to shut off my volume and still have my alarm ring in the mornings. My son almost missed the bus this morning. The only way for my alarm to go off is to have my volume on.

Try turning on airplane mode when u go to bed. I did that and my alarm started working.

I have the same problem after the update. Alarm snoozes automatically and doesn't go off. I woke up late the past two days. I will download and app in the interim until fixed. I wonder how many people woke up late since the Lollipop release!?

yes same thing happened to me. woke up late 2 days in a row since lollipop, somebody has to have an app that can override this

If this is what it takes to have this damn thing work as an alarm clock I am just going to hard reset it and sell.

After the upgrade I noticed terrible battery loss. I did a factory reset and the issue went away, the phone was faster, and everything seems great except for the issue with the Alarm on Mute.

On galaxys5 after lollipop upgrade put phone on vibrate then go to settings sounds and notifications then vibration intensity. Drag the slider all the way left for calls and notifications. Alarm clock will work. I tested it out. (Son was late to work 2 days because his phone was on silent mode)

Don't waste your time. Hard resetting doesn't fix it.

None of these have worked for me. I was also late to work...1 hour

Maybe I am confused. Before if you put your phone on silent your alarm would STILL ring in the morning. Now with Lollipop if I put my phone in silent the alarm DOES NOT ring. I should be able to make my phone quiet at nighttime while I'm sleep without any vibrations or anything BUT my alarm still ring and wake me up!!
