Description
I don't know whether this is the same issue as tickets #110 or #171, but the alarm doesn't work when the phone is off in SHR testing with the latest updates. If it is suspended it doesn't seem to work either. All I changed from the default image is the date/time/locale-adjustment as per wiki. I tried to find where to report this upstream, but I didn't succeed.

I updated to the July 10 rootfs and the july 8 kernel image in unstable, as well as qi. By DST you mean the time settings? Anyway, what happens now is when I set the alarm and then let the phone suspend (or suspend manually) it doesn't wake up, but, when I wake it up manually after the alarm time, the alarm app launches and it rings. When I set an alarm and turn the phone off, nothing happens.

DST - Daylight Saving Time. It's possible that your RTC clock which wakes up phone is set one hour late due to incorrect DST setting.

Replying to dos:
RTC is set to UTC, and I did the link to my timezone as suggested in the install guide. The time that is displayed on the desktop is correct and the output of hwclock gives me the correct UTC. Is there a setting that I'm missing? I noted that after suspend the link from /etc/localtime to my respective timezone is no longer there (at least it doesn't show when I do a simple ls -la in /etc). However the clock on the desktop is still correct.

Check with SHR-unstable, and check your DST settings. Then write here, if it still happens.
