Do not disturb mode previous feature missing

[martinmrmus]

Hi. I've noticed that there's no possibility to set "do not disturb mode" to end automatically on next alarm. This feature was available in 5.1.1, why did you remove it?

Thanks, I followed your link to androidpolice and checked it out. The workaround (set phone date to, say, December 7th 2015) actually brings the do-not-disturb-until-next-alarm feature back.
But as I prefer to be up to date with everything else on my phone, that's not an option.
I hope Google succeeds in fixing this, because I rather like that feature. The timed rule feature is not an option for me, because my schedule is not that regular. Meanwhile I just turn of dnd manually in the morning.

You are right !

How amazing.

The magic switch date seems to be 25th of May 2016.

So 'Do not Disturb until next alarm' was a 'timed feature' ???

How impossibly odd is that ?

I'd love to have this feature back and working ( in case anyone with influence would by accident happen to be reading this 🙂 )

Something strange happened.

Since last night the option is suddenly back on my phone! I didn't do any software update or so.

Same here.
Now let's have some fun and predict the next magic switch date. My rune bones say: Dec 1 2016.
And they are never wrong. Unless there comes an even more magic update and removes that silly, annoying little bug.

It's working again

Got a new 512mb download last night and this feature has been restored! Build number 32.2.A.0.224

Thanks Devs

(Do not disturb until next alarm)
Is gone again, was working a few days ago.

Z5
Build number 32.2.A.0.224

Same here :(.

Seems like an automatic (no idea how to stop that) update from Sony is pushed and brings back this bug. At least that's the only thing that happened last days on my phone.

No idea what else it can be.

Frustrating to say the least!

The "until next alarm" is gone again.
Changing data to july 4th makes it appear again.
A bug fix from Sony is needed asap.

Btw, why cant I access the DND from the volume button anymore, like i could on my Z3? (turn doen sound, via vibrator, to DND menu?)

Is this behaviour of the disappearing 'Do not Disturb until next alarm' on certain dates a feature or a bug ?

Is it specific to Sony or does this happen with other Android 6 devices. If it is specific to Sony please fix it. If it is a more general Android problem how can we request Google to fix it?

After updating to 32.2.A.0.253 my Z5 I miss until next alarm feature in priority mode. It was there for a while but week after update it just disappeared and it's no longre available. Any solutio EXCLUDING factory reset? Really don't want to repeatly wipe my phone. Did it once, trying to fix it, but it appears again so it's bug.
