Hi all
I'm trying out Klaxon alarm clock.
Can anyone tell me the purpose / function of the "bell" button (bottom 2nd from right in attached image).
When I'm setting up an alarm, clicking on it just toggles making it lit up/not. If I press the play button it always plays an alarm tone (beep) whether the bell button is pressed or not. Very confusing and as usual with all these little apps there is no manuals or instructions anywhere.
Thanks for any help
Bell icon in klaxon
When bell icon is 'lit' it means the alarm is active. When bell icon is 'unlit' it means alarm is inactive.
Thanks for the reply qai5er
Stil confused. If I go in an edit /create a new alarm, why would I want to make th ealarm inactive???? Isn't that a bit of an oxymoron ?
Also, when I click on the "play" button it plays an alarm beeping regardless of whether the alarm is active or inactive. Surely if I make the alarm inactive, then the play button should play nothing and perhaps tell me "nothing to play, alarm inactive"...??
also as well as the questions above, can anyone tell me what the items mean on the alarm config page . . .
Snooze (min) I assume this is the snooze time
Expire (Min) - what is this?
Delay (Sec) - what is this?
Many thanks to anyone who can help

No, it is'nt. This is an important feature to me at least. Just because I have set up the alarm does not mean that there is'nt situation when I do not need it. Let me give you an example. I may have an alarm to remind me to pick up my children after school. During school holidays, I would make it inactive, and I would reactivate it when the school starts. I could delete it during school holiday and recreate it I suppose but that's too troublesome.
You might find good use of this in the future.
Since Klaxon seems to work witout any problems on your devices I was wondering if you could tell me which settings you chose.
I have installed Klaxon and checked all boxes in the settings-menu, but the alarm won't work.
Instead of the Klaxon alarm the standard WM-alarm start at the specified time, but ends after a few seconds by itself (probably because Klaxon wants to start its alarm?).
Could you give me any advice?
TIA

What does the options "Integrate with TouchFlo3D" and "Forcibly remove windows Alarm" do?
I see no difference in touch flo nor in the normal windows alarms. Even if I touch clock in touch flo windows alarm is opened.

None - it doesn't seem to work.
However, I've installed SSMapa (2 files copied into /windows and then when opening up settings I get 2 questions - accept these). Second - start SSMapa, do an init, find time / clock and set up program exactly as typed:
/Program/Klaxon/Klaxon.exe
Set directory:
/Program/Klaxon
Chose save. Then deploy. You get 2-3 worrysome questions about removing signed exe files - answer yes. Restart device for simplicity sake or wait a moment and you'll get 2-3 questions about MP???.exe answer yes. Now you have Klaxon integrated completely into your interface. Meaning that when alarm sounds, Klaxon pops up. When you click the time - Klaxon is opened. No more useless WM time settings.

I have tried this but I cannot seem to find Klaxon.exe whether it is installed on my device or on my Storage card, I am not sure what to do.
Nevermind, got it working after LOTS of messing around
at least 2 people have now said that they managed to sort it out, but didn't explain how they did it.
to the people who are now able to use klaxon as a normal alarm, can you please share what settigns you had to change to get the alarm to play (say, a mp3), and then snooze for x minutes ?
thanks
I ended up uninstalling it as it was too unreliable. It was a bit slow to start up and also the alarm always went off late when integrated with TouchFlo (not sure if S2U2 was causing this). Back on the standard alarm now and it actually goes off at the right time now, which is a bonus.

I guess that the Expire is the how long the alarm wanto keep snoozing.
Let say yr snooze time is 5 mins. And yr expire time is 30 mins. Means it will only snooze for 6 times.. then it expired..

U can chooose the ringtone (MP3) from the 'sound logo' which is left to the 'Play' logo. From there u go search for yr MP3 file from yr folders. But remember to lit up the 'bell' logo or else it wont sound. Also pls close the light sensor which i found it is troublesome which yr alarm wont sound after 1st snooze.

does this work with htc hd 2 and htc sense?
because it says only touchflo 3d and not htc sense?
thanks for the answer
cheers
I´d like to know if there is any alarm manager for Wm like the iPhone? Easy to use and where you can activate/deactivate alarms by sliding an indicator.
I´ve tried G-Alarm and Klaxon and neither of them is good - and easy to use - enough.
I use spbtime as i find it is the most finger friendly alarm manager out there. I also have used SSMaPa to configure the BIG TF3D clock to go to spbtime when i touch it, so setting the alarm at night for me is a 5 second things instead of a lets get the stylus out...
Simple Alarm
If you interest, you can test use my own Alarm.
You can quickly toggle alarm active by double clicking on speaker icon of each alarm.
But no cab file, only zip. Unpack to phone and try it

Great.. works very well for me!

Thanks
(I don't understand the russian signs though.. )
Looks very nice...
Hi. Looks very nice.. looking forward to an english version

It looks very nice, i´ll try and leave my feedback.
I´ve tried, but it lacks some features, it doesn´t integrate with the TF3D correctly..
Do you know any other alarm for HD similar to the iPhone one?

When a reminder from for instance a calendar event, an incoming message or a missed call pops up, you can choose to dismiss it or delay it (not sure if delaying is the correct name in english, I mean postponing). When you choose delay, it pops up again after a minute or so.
WM offers the opportunity to choose for how much time you want the delay the reminder. If I recall correctly you could delay it for 1, 5, 30 and 60 minutes and 24 hours or so. Is there a way to get this choice back in TF3D? One minute is too fast for me.
Edit: for solution go directly to post 37.
I noticed this too. It's an annoying 'problem' for me. Hope to find a tweak/solution!
Hello there,
I had a little lookie in the registry found something that seems to do the trick, check out .
HK_Current_User > Controlpanel >notifications>reminders>autosnooze> AUTOSNOOZEMINS ......
Sorry for not displaying it like normal registry entries but I hope this is helpful, now I just have to find away of that annoying home screen problem.
Thanks for the Registry tip...I changed the registry and the MAX that it will snooze is 5 mins.....despite the amount you change the registry to!!!
It mentions something about the entry being a Hexidecimal??? I am not sure but I tried 15, 30, 45 and it only sleeps for 5 mins.
Any thoughts?

Thanks. I've searched around for this HKCU/Controlpanel/notifications/reminders/autosnooze/AUTOSNOOZEMINS key a little. What I found is that it decides for how long the reminder keeps bugging you, when you're not responding to it by either dismissing or delaying it. That's not really what we're looking for. Furthermore, I would like to have a choice for how long to delay it each single time, not just have a different generic delaying time.
This does the trick: HKLM/sysem/shell/notification/oem/usedefaultui=1 in stead of 0. It also changes the appearance of the reminder though.
Answer from HTC.
To my question, why I can not snooze with different intervals, I have got this answer:

I have installed Pocket Informant 8.51. Can this be the problem? How to solve it? I have not found the way how to snooze with different intervals.
Thanks!
Maybe they misinterpreted you because of the word snooze. Maybe you can snooze when you use the alarm clock to wake yourself up in the morning.
Have you read my previous post at all? It contains the solution!

The normal alarm function pops up a little requestor with an alarm clock at the top and a description of the alarm. The soft keys are snooze and dismiss. Pressing snooze or holding down snooze both have the same effect, the alarm is snoozed for 5 mins, there is no option to change the length of the snooze interval.

As I said: change HKLM/sysem/shell/notification/oem/usedefaultui=1 in stead of 0. That will give you different snooze options.
I sent an email to the Hong Kong HTC support centre. They did understand the problem was with Calendar reminders, but said that the snooze is fixed at 1 minute.
They have said they will pass on to the engineers a request for being able to choose different time periods, so I guess this could appear in a future firmware upgrade if enough other people ask for it too (hint hint!).
Meanwhile, I did the registry edit suggested by deechte and it now works in the usual (less pretty) Windows Mobile way. Thanks for this!
Ben
It seems a bit bizarre that somewhere there must have been a meeting where they decided that replacing the older version with the massively restricted new version was acceptable. Didn't anyone think at design time that the new implementation was a bit **** compared to the WM version?
Thanks deechte! The registry tweak worked like a charm on the Diamond2 - the original "Dismiss" and "Menu" were restored - when I clicked on "Menu", it gave me a big finger-friendly menu to choose the time to remind again - just like the standard WM6.1. Note: Had to restart the phone after the tweak before it takes effect.
Thanks it works
Glad I could be of help. I agree it's a pity that you get back the old-style menu. I prefer it's functionality though.

Deechte, thank you very much for this trick. I was totally dissapointed with the current situation not been able to delay more than 5 min the alarms.
hey deechte, thank for the tip!
luckless me! registery trick dosen'y work for me!
Maybe restart your device afterwards?
doesn't work for me too...
Hi All,
In HTC Diamond there is only 3 alarm . I mean to say that I want 10 alarm for a day .
Thanks in appreciation

You have made 2 threads about this. if you wanted to change your post, you should just use the edit button.
AFAIK, there is no way to change the number of alarms. you may want to look into another alarm application such as g-alarm for example.
Hello
I have looked around the whole of the HD2 forums for a solution and I have come empty handed. I have found forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537878 Remove HTC Notificaion Manager and forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632170&highlight=lost+popup+notifications How to disable HTC notifications screen but there doesn't seem to be anything in there to help, or that at least explains why this has happened. My problem is that I have lost the Popups to dismiss/snooze calendar events as well as the Alarm Clock.
I do not have a cooked Rom, I do however have Cookie's Hometab, BsB Tweaks, gfreek's Brians's icons and several other little mods. Everything was working fine until I am not sure when
I noticed a few days ago that the popups no longer appear with a Locked phone. When the Alarm goes off in the morning, I have to unlock the phone, tap the taskbar, get into the HTC Notifications screen, click on the Notification and finally Dismiss... It's a little bit of a longwinded way of doing things when the popups where so handy. No need to unlock anything either for Calendar tasks/reminders nor for the alarm clock.
Needless to say when I wake up in the morning the last thing I want to do is fiddle with tapping things... I want to wake up without swearing
One way around the Alarm Clock is G-Alarm, but I would rather not have to resort to that. There still remains the problem of my many tasks and reminders!!!
Are any of the Tweaks/Mods/Hacks responsible for the popups' disappearance?
I would LOVE for my popups to come back. As a last resort I will Hard Reset the phone, but as a lot of you will agree, it's a bit of an inconvenience since we all spend so much time making the phone our own.
BTW: I uninstalled BsB Tweaks (one of the last things I installed) to check if the popups would come back, no joy.
This is the phone info:
OS version
5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila version
2.5.19211619.0
ROM Version
1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE
ROM date
01/11/10
Radio version
2.06.51.07
Protocol version
15.30.50.07U
if any more information is needed please let me know.
Thank you.
go to settings/sound and notification/notification/ reminder and tick the option to "display message on screen"
Ha!
it must have been the coffee...
I think I found it!
will test and see if it makes a difference.
Thank you so much.
------
final edit to say IT WORKS!!! Thank you so much! you have given me peace of mind!!!
U are welcome.
Same problem on my touch pro2
I found it on settings/menu/all settings/sound&messages/messages(tab)...A bit anoying that HTC hides those settings. Even the HTC support could not help me with this problem...
I found it after reading this post.
Thanks!
POP UP / Snooze Restored
