No idea here, sorry :( You can enable logging and maybe find some hints
in the log.

Do you remember where one could set this? It would be very useful to
have this option. If the option was in 4.3.2 it should be in QtMoko too
unless someone has removed it.

I have now workaround for working alarms. I tested several times and it
seems to work just fine.

The workaround is to set alarm, open media player (not QMplayer) and
play some song. Then suspend phone with short POWER press while song is
playing.

In the morning alarm will wake the phone up and it will continue
playing.

Btw the media player can now play just wav. If you want ogg then put
attached file to /opt/qtmoko/plugins/codecs/libtremorplugin.so

Hopefully next version will have full working alarm.

No idea here too...

Glad to hear this.
