I used SE P1i before my Xperia. And i loved the alarm, the "next 24hours"-setting. Now i have to choose the day on the alarm, and when I turn it off, its scheduled to the next week.
Do anyone know if its possible to get the P1i alarm to Xperia?
i also had p1i. use g alarm and u will not miss p1i alarm.
I installed G-Alarm looks good
You still have to choose which day you want the alarm, i cant find the "next 24 hours"-setting?
use quick alarm option
And to the next question..
Can I do anything to show "time remain" in SPB mobile shell, with G alarm?
I don't know about mobile shell xperia version ,but mobileshell full version shows time remaining on now screen.

Hi, sorry to invade with what seems like a trivial issue but does anyone know of an app that allows the following functionality? I used my old phone as my alarm clock and am missing the functionality on my Magician -->
1) BIG snooze and off button / or hardware button map for off/snooze (can't see much at 5am!)?
2) Play audible alarm at max volume even when PPC muted?
Any help would be much appreciated - or good excuses as to why I have been late for work since I got my new toy!!!
Thanks,
OB.
How about this one?
that prog is great and what u ask for. i use it myself!
Perfect!! Thanks very much indeed...
One slight problem - The today plugin conflicts with my Calendar plugin and completely removed it from the today screen and config page?!?
I did a few resets and uninstall / re-installes to no evail, so I removed the pTravelAlarm plugin registry entry (software|microsoft|today|items) and ptplugin.dll (windows dir) followed by a soft reset and my Calendar was visible on the Today screen again... odd?
I am not too bothered about the Today plugin part of the pTravelAlarm program so still happy :lol:
OB.
You could also try Spb Time. Large snooze button. Never fails to wake me up.

Which plugin do you use? I'm using calender+ without any problems.

This was the standard built-in plugin that was trashed -- I did try Calender+ and it worked fine, but wish it would show a tomorrow appt. if it is the next one, as the built-in one does...
OB.
I have now tried both the pTravelAlarm and the Spb Time. The Spb Time is cheaper, has more functions and are better looking than pTravelAlarm => use Spb Time
I don't follow you with that you can't see tomorrows appointment with calender+. I can see the following two days with all their appointments. You can easily display up to 31 days with calender+.
Spb Time is about what I wanted as an alarm when migrating from Nokia to Magician. Had to install some fix to get it working though. Alarms and Windows Mobile doesn't seem to get along.

I like to display next 2 appt. only. So if I have a 5pm and an 8am next day, I like to see them both on the today screen but not more than 2 appt. so the display 2 days does not work for me? Unless I am missing something in Cal+?
Thanks for the inputs, much appreciated...

Strange, I have no problems, so far....
@obarnes With calender+ you can set it to display the next x (between 1 and 31) days, hours, appointments and so on. Just enter the options and set it to whatever you want.

I have used both WolfClock and StopTime. Both are pretty good and they will do what you want.
StopTime is more barebones, visually simpler and to the point, though less refined. While cruder, it is quite good at what it does. Also has various timer/stopwatch functions.
WolfClock is more visuals (fancy backgrounds etc) and colours. It runs of Compact.net, is therefore a bit slower to boot up the firt time after a soft resent. It also eats up more memory space with all sorts of cute things like a setting where you can tell it to play music for x mins until you go to sleep. Some might call this "bloat". The one thing I will say is that at night you might find the choice of a softer screen color worth the extra memory.
Both have good handy button size for when you need to stop, snooze etc and both are free.
hello all ..
long time reader, first time poster .. i've recently purchased a Hermes and this is my first Windows Mobile based device .. i'm switching from an Motorola V80 and am missing the one of the features big time ..
whenever i had a appointment come up on my V80, it would continually ring (or vibrate) until it was viewed ..
i work & go to school full time and this is a great way to remind me of classes when my phone is sitting @ my desk .. just wondering if anyone knows of a program that would extend the alarm on the Hermes ..
any help would be much appreciated ..
cheers.

am i stupid to do so???
is it better than the free panel or SE's panels?
imho, yes
we can have touchflo3d, spb mobile shell isn't confortable as it can seems. It has poor integration even with spb products, i.e. if you need phone profiles and use spb phone suite you can't have a wireless switch on today, you have to navigate trough menu (feature request from about 1 year!!!). Also menu customization isn't simple and some basical function are still difficoult to reach. And I reported a lot of crash when customize.
It's UGLY and we don't have much skins for wvga, and skinning is a real pain as they don't release any documentation and all new version messes up all our knowledges changing layout, calls, api... I was about to release a pretty wvga xperia theme for mobile shell 2.1 but the upgrade from 2.1.1 to 2.1.3 has break too much things and i have to give up. They don't deserve us and I don't encourage people to use it
tflo3d is a mess too to skin, but at least it's free for us, much cooler by default and more stable even on xperia
I don't think that you're stupid if you buy SPB mobile shell 2.
I've tried both spb panel and tf3dhd, and the fullversion of spb mobile shell 2 beats them hands down. It's quite easy to customize the menues and is lighter on the cpu than the hog tf3d (in comparison to spb MS2 it is a hog.).
I say go for it.

Try spb. I think they have 15 day tral . and see may post in the link.
I kinda want allways to have that other peapler dont use. want manilla buy oem
What are the differences between the panel and the real thing?

The real thing has more options and a "today" plugin and it looks nicer.
i tried the spb mobile 2 and i like it overall, but would prefered to have it as an panel otherwise i had to keep pressing the button for the spb shell to appear every time. is there any way to have it as a panel as i could not see the option to?
at the moment i use the spb shell panel from SE which i like to layout of?

if you use s2u you can set it to wake uo directly to spb, otherwise if you use search you'll find some sort of "daemon" that cares about switching automagically to spb when normal today comes up
but the point is: spb is undocumented, heavy and a pain to skin/customize
using 2.1.2
Spb Phone Suite w/wireless, and profile, switches is avail as a plug-in/tab in Today screen.
The first option in Shell settings is to "Show the [Spb Shell] Now Screen when device wakes up."
as a one on one compare, does it WOW much more than the SE panel?

not directly as with normal today plugin
Im using SPB 2.1.2 and I tried TF3D.
IMO SPB shell is much better and easier to customize and gives me satisfaction. Im using several plugins and it works as a charm. Quick and nice looking and its setted up as my "Today Screen" so I dont have to push anything to make it come up.
I love it and would recommend u to buy it. But try the Trial first to see if it fits u..
ok.. btw what does plug in do?
For SPBMS users:
is the standard version able to work together with panels? i.e. in case you install MS AND want to use another panel, like Facebook or Google?
I have bought it and thinks it is a great program til i noticed that i had to charge the battery every day. I uninstalled it and now i can wait four days before i have to charge it again.
They have a 15-day trial that u can try, but remember to check your battery

I enable the Spb Phone Suite plug-in/tab in Mobile Shell settings. Then enable Spb Mobile Shell in Start> Settings > Today > Items. Phone Suite wireless and profile switchers are shown as drop down tabs on the WM Today panel. Can't imagine how a more "normal today plugin" would look.
Re. battery life. Wrote this yesterday in another forum; will quote myself here -
100% when I left for work this morning at 6:45am
2.5 hrs BT stereo use (HBH-DS220) to/from work
auto-chk my 2 email addresses at every 15 mins and hour all day
Spb Traveler is set to auto-update weather & currencies every 2 hrs
10 texts
15 mins of calls
1/2 hr of internet at lunch
right now[17:45], my battery is reading 60%
mobile is set to GSM/EDGE with auto band selection
Is it possible to integrate the full mobile shell as a panel, like the lite version?

Unfortunatly no
Maybe its possible to simply overwrite the files from mobilebshell panel edition with the files of the full version?
well in a way it IS a panel as it works on your home panel (which I have changed the image of to show Mobile Shell) and on your fish panel too. but if I want my Mobile Shell panel, I just choose my home panel.
Hi.
How can I get more then 3 different alarms on the HD2 :S? Seems stupid not to have more.
KLAXON
I use an awesome alarm program called Klaxon.
Give it a Google!
G-alarm one of the best winmo alarm clocks out there

do you have the same problem or a solution?

I agree... best choice you will not be disappointed
Definitely buy G Alarm. There is also a hack on these forums so it opens from the the alarm tab on the home screen.
Amazing program. Can set alarms for anything.
I found that if I turn off the HD2, the alarm not working when times come...?
I just over slept because of this.
More then 3 alarms
Currently you have 3 alarms.
Is it possible to change some parameter in the registry from the hd2 to change the count of alarm clocks displayed ?
Can any one tell me ?
thanks
Can we add more alarms to the alarm screen in windows ?
Someone thats way better at hacking WM >??
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock\
has 0 1 2 = 3 alarms ...
I tried to add a 3 key however it didnt add it to the alarm screen
Any Ideas Guys ?
Your best bet is to use a 3rd party alarm clock application

well thats no fun LOL and I kinda Like this ver
The Windows Mobile built in alarm is unreliable, if you set appointments and alarms, alot of the time just the appointment will go off,or neither will go off.
I would suggest gAlarm, it's the best I have found.
Really though, if you need your phone's alarm as anything more than a novelty, a 3rd party app is the way to go.
