The mentioned question is what they had asked me. How will u debug when alarm is set then mobile is getting switched off.
I guess its not very difficult. Though the device is off but its not really OFF. There is certainly some process taking care to send an interrupt at the time alarm is set. So probably the easiest is to log the steps you want to debug and you can start from the time the interrupt is sent to device.
1) Check whether mobile is switching off when set at any particular time period or AM/PM
2) Check the log files of device after downloading android SDK (if its android)
3)check if the alarm app is compatable with the OS config
4)check compatability with mobile
5)Check if the app is working in some other device of same config
6)Check some other device of difference config
8)Check whether mobile resources( is having enough space)
The question itself is not clear.. The sentence seems like debugged statement rather than statement to be debugged...
- Asheesh August 23, 2012The question must have been different.. much like "there is a alarm set in mobile but it does not trigger" Debug this situation...
Please confirm
