Alarm doesn't sound

Hi. On my new Xperia M5 the alarm clock does not sound when the phone is switched off. Surprise! On all my previous phones (Nokia N97 the latest) I was used to switch off the phone at night and the alarm would still wake me up in the morning, asking me at the same time if I wanted the phone to be ON or OFF. A very convenient feature - which I miss on my Xperia.

That's not supported by neither android, ios, nor windows mobile. Your old pohone was a symbian 9.0 device, back in 2009. In other words, you can try a different brand of smartphone but it will be the same, it is not supported.

It is supported on Android.

My backup device (for when my M5 is dead) is a ZTE Blade X. I can turn it off and it will consistenly turn on and sound the alarm when necessary.
