[Bug 1420169] Re: Alarms don't wake up the phone when it is powered off

 

** Description changed:

  The alarms API is not setting the device's RTC alarm to power on the
  phone when an alarm should ring and the device is powered off.
  
  This causes alarms to be lost.
+ 
+ We are instead using Android's /dev/alarm interface which only works
+ while the phone is on or suspended.
