I used the alarm function on my old phone and it was great, it would ring and ring and ring for a minute every five minutes unless i hit snooze.
My new phone (Titan) has a terrible alarm, it can ring and vibrate and light up... for about thirty seconds, and then I get a wonderful little reminder that my alarm went off on my screen! Its such a great alarm that I was only a LITTLE late to school today.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I've been looking in the forum but have thus far not stumbled upon anything useful.
My alarm will repeat until I either snooze or turn it off.
Under clock and alarms, go to the alarms tab, then tap the bell on the alarm.
repeat will be an option as well as flash and vibrate. I use alarm5 for the sound. See if it works with that sound on your device....

I am having problems wth alarms on my universal. It happens to me that alarms don't ring when i want. They are ringing only when my universal is not on stand by.
Example: I have 3 alarms. One at 5:00, one at 6:00, one at 7:00. They are not ringing on time, but when i wake up at 10:00 i turn my universal back from stand by and he start to ring at all three alarms.
Please help, i have installed spb time program, and i have this with both program.
Hi! I am using the 4.0 Biggy with Cube by ttran. Its great and I like it a lot the only weird thing I've had to deal with is that it seems like everytime I set an alarm it goes off, regardless of if it is the current one set, or if it is even set.
Example.
I set alarm 1 for 9am and then I change it to 10am. Then I change it to 8am. Then I change it to 9am. The alarm will go off at 8am, and then two alarms (it will give me two notices and I can hear my alarm ring tone echoing, meaning two tones are going off) and then the alarm will go off at 10am.
Even then this doesn't seem to happen consistently, but it happens enough to where its starting to be an inconvenience. This morning i had 3 alarms pop up at my normal alarm time, with 3 tones overlaying each other pretty much going off at approximately the same time.
Does anybody know what the issue is here, I know the Dash had certain alarm problems where it went off everyday at the same time but its not quite the same as mine.
Please advise, thanks!
winmo has always been slightly spotty when it came to alarms. i suggest a third party program
I've used Memmaid to delete duplicate notifications/alarms. I don't know what freeware is out there that can duplicate this function but I'm sure there is something.
Has anyone had the problem where the alarm on the alarm clock rings a single time and them stops ringing?
I have the checkbox in the control panel checked for repeat sound yet it seems to have started only ringing once (which is really annoying if you're a heavy sleeper).
Any help would be appreciated.
Yeah, I have that too. The only thing I've found it to be sure your reminders are on and it will remind you in a few minutes that you missed your alarm. Unfortunately the reminder tone will play at the end of your alarm tone as well so I picked a reminder that sounds OK with my alarm....
Hopefully someone will have a better solution.
p.s. I've noted that if attached to external power the alarm will repeat but if not, it won't. Seems it sleeps right after the alarm if alarm sounds when screen is locked and won't wake to continue the alarm.....
I suspected it was a power saving method but it's a pretty lousy method if it breaks the primary usage.
I decided to install a 3rd party alarm clock called Klaxon. It's free and it works great.
couldn't find anything in the user manual - is there any way to get it to sound longer than 1 minute?
i riipped the sound file from that samsung video (where are you going today) but it only plays for one minute
so i figured it might be something i did in editing the file, so i went back to the stock sounds, and still only plays for one minute.
btw - to that poster with problems - when i left my phone charging overnite, apparently the "battery fully charge notification" stopped the alarm action -
I use Gentle Alarm. Haven't had a problem with it. One of my favorite functions is the ability to choose an artist from you music collection instead of a ring tone. When ever the alarm goes off the app will pick a random song from that artist to play.
but how long will the alarm sound for ? mine stops dead at one minute
I'm also interested in an alarm replacement. To make matters worse than the one minute time limit is that if I don't hit snooze it doesn't go off again, even though I have it set to go off five times. The stock alarm is pretty lame.
Gentle Alarm will keep going. I'm a fairly deep sleeper and I've never slept through it.
Sent from my Samsung Vibrant using the XDA app
thanks - i'll give it a try
Nice, thanks. I already like it as long as it works. The playlists and night display are bonus.
It's been acting strangely for the past few days. Basically I have the "Alarm-Snooze" tone for my alarm sound.
On a different topic, if I have events set to remind in my calendar, I have the reminder tone set to "Ring-Basic"
Now going back to the phone alarm, every morning when the alarm goes off, it goes off playing two tones "Ring-Basic" + "Alarm-Snooze" COMBINED! Plus instead of the alarm going off until I physically turn it off, the alarm turns off by itself after about 5 seconds.
This isn't right, and it have never done this before. A bug perhaps? Any suggestions...
