3.6 Alarms

3.6.1 Why do alarms keep going off repeatedly?

Go to Snooze duration settings > Alarm rings before auto-silence (times). This lets you set
the number of times the alarm will sound if it is not turned off and you don't touch Touch
here to snooze for 10 minutes or Slide to turn off alarm (the default alarm ring length is to
ring for 5 minutes each time). If you touch Touch here to snooze for 10 minutes when the
alarm rings, the alarm will be delayed. For example, if your alarm is set for 12:00 and the
delay time is 10 minutes, then the alarm will ring again at 12:10. If you touch Touch here to
snooze for 10 minutes again, the alarm will ring again at 12:20. Regardless of how many
times you set the alarm to ring before auto-silence, you can also touch Alarm (snoozed) in
the notification panel to stop the alarm from ringing again.
3.6.2 When my phone automatically powers on after the alarm
rings, why is my phone sometimes in airplane mode?
The power-off alarm function is designed in the following way: Because your phone is
powered off before the alarm goes off, only the alarm function is turned on when the phone
powers on, rather than all the communication functions (thus, your phone is in airplane
mode).
If you turn off the alarm, airplane mode will also turn off. If you touch Touch here to snooze
for 10 minutes, your phone will remain in airplane mode.

3.7 Fingerprint identification

3.7.1 Do I have to place my finger fully on the fingerprint sensor
to unlock the screen?
The fingerprint sensor embedded in the Huawei Mate 8 supports 360° all-angle fingerprint
recognition. You don't have to place your finger fully on the sensor to unlock the screen.
3.7.2 Why can't I use my fingerprint to unlock the screen after
clearing the screen unlock password/setting an unlock pattern?
This is a new feature in Android 6.0. When you clear your password or set an unlock pattern,
the phone will show a warning that all your fingerprints will be deleted.

3.7.3 Is there a time limit for entering a fingerprint enrollment?

After 10 minutes of inactivity with screen on on the Fingerprint management screen, if you
put your finger on the sensor, the phone will prompt you that fingerprint enrollment has failed
and exit the fingerprint management screen automatically. This is a default timeout setting for
fingerprint enrollment. This mechanism helps prevent others from enrolling a fingerprint on
your phone when you spend too much time on the fingerprint management screen. This
function makes it more secure for you to use fingerprints.
