I've been playing with BsB Tweaks for alarm snoozing settings but then went back to original settings, still now when alarm goes on...
[1] no pop-up window is displayed, so I can neither snooze nor stop the alarm
[2] two sounds are played: the appointment sound and the alarm sound
How can i go back to having [1] the po-uo windows displayed with snooze and ignore and [2] only one sound being played?
thanks

Ok, I managed to solve myself problem [1] (had to go to advanced WM6.5 settings), but I still get 2 sounds playing: first the calendar reminder sound and then the alarm reminder sound
OK sorry I found a thread which is already talking about this...

How did you solve this problem? What do you mean by "advanced WM6.5 settings?

Hi. How can I change the Alarm ring and disable the Vibrate feature when the alarm rings.
Open the Clock & Alarms applet from the Today screen and click on the bell icon, just above the time indicator. A new screen will open, and from here you can select the various options you want.
Hope that is clear enough.
Yes. Very helpful. Works Perfect. Thanks.
If i set an alarm, and pick a sounds for it like "alarm-snooze" (one of the louder ones) when it comes time for the alarm, it pops up on the device with a single little high pitched "alert" beep, but does not play the alarm sound i selected.
This is a huge problem for me as i use my phone for my waking up alarm, and that tiny beep doesnt wake me up -
why isnt it using the alarm sound i have selected?
Does anyone else see this?
any way to fix?
Thanks
I have noticed the same issue two times now. Last night and this morning when I had to wake up to work. Didn't sound the alarm I separately choosed. It didn't actually play any sound at all although it wasn't in silent mode whatsoever.
go to settings>sounds and notifications and check the first option too, then go to the tab notifications (the right tab), choose event: Reminders and uncheck playing the sound. You can leave the show messega on the screen if you like to.
you're describing donig it thru the "all settings" area, to do it through the HTC settings apps...
go to
Settings > Sound & Display
then select "Notification Sounds"
then set "Reminders" to OFF
It will then play the Alarm sound we selected
Thanks for the tip! its rubbish that the tiny reminders "bip" takes precedence over the Alarm sounds we select!

You are both correct...
Chris, although they are 'generic', the function can be performed either from hyellow method or yours.
btw.. what is your field of medicine?

ok then but what happend to calendar notification by setting reminders to OFF?
hello.my problem is:i set in "Notification Sounds" ringtone for "reminder".now when i set "alarm" on "on" ,so when after alarm ringing,so playing two ringtones together.them which i set on "reminder" and "alarm".everyone similar problem?thanx and sorry for my very very bad english
no one hasn't this problem?when ringing sound in alarm,playing melodies which i set in alarm and playing melodie which i set in reminder together crisscross
I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly but I am having an issue which I have only just noticed this morning.
I set my alarms for work and I always use the snooze sound which wakes me up the best. This morning no snooze sound. When I tested the alarm I realised it was using the reminder sound which was set to a quiet alert sound. Changing the reminder sound in the settings also changes the alarm sound.
IS this what you mean?
So, I have similar problem regarding reminder but not the same.
I think it has a serious bug, and our problems connect somehow in the background.
1.) In some cases (I can not define the rule) there is only reminder sound, not alarm. It is absolutely strange because it is not loud enough to wake me up.
2.) First I have set up 3 schedules: 5:00, 5:30, 6:00 without description text.
After I have modified them to 5:00, 5:15, 5:30, and I have given names for they.
What happens? The reminder sounds 5 (!) times, at all of the above schedules, even at 5:30 2 times! It is really strange.
Of course, probably it can be cleaned based on the registry, but this is very dangerous. What will happen after the next modification?
Any idea to fix it?
richardirv:yes,this is it.when ringing alarm,leo playing two songs together.for alarm and for reminder...
Double sound in reminders & alarms
Yes you are right.
This has been present for a long time with WM6.5 and HTC Sense/Manila.
I am guessing it is because 2 systems are operating.
A workaround I use is to assign an unobtrusive sound to reminders in WM sounds & notifications, like alarm-high frequency and a different alarm sound.
I don't think there is a fix for this.

Reminder notifications: SOUND without VIBRATION not possible
Hi, I got excatly the same problem, two sound when the clock alarm is activated. I can stand with this... but today I have found even worse problem and I am totally disapointed this htc software...
So, when I setup calendar apointment, and create "Reminder notification" for this lets say 5 minutes before event, then of course I get a pop-up with: "delay" or "cancel" the event. But the problem is with SOUND and VIBRATION for this reminder event. Namely, I can not force the phone to make a "Reminder notification" sound ONLY, without vibration. When I go to: settings, sound and screen, reminder sounds, I can turn on switch for reminders. This is OK, then click on reminders to go in and here a problem: VIBRATION: OFF, ON, ONLY. When set up to OFF and confirm, the main switch for reminders is changed to OFF! So no sounds for reminders at all!!! When I switch it on again and go into reminders settings, and choose VIBRATION ON and confirm and go back, main switch stays on but this means that the only configuration which works is to have reminder events with VIBRATION AND SOUND... totally crap
can anybody investigate? Thanks in advance.
Reminder issue
Hi I'm also having an issue with the alarm function.
On Monday I set alarms for 5:00, 5:15 & 5:30 (just in case I get lazy and sleep in)
On Monday night I turn them off, but they still sound on Tuesday????
I spoke to HTC and they said I need to reflash the latest image, which is total rubbish and a common answer to every single problem you send them.
Is this the same issue?
Is there a fix?
my workaround is to only ever set/change settings for anything like alarms or reminders in the windows settings (settings menu all settings clocks and alarms or sounds and notifications)
using the manila pages (tap alarms on home page, or settings, sound and display) always screw things up.
it seems themanila pages arent correctly integrated, in that they don't correctly feed the settings back into the windows settings. also, they don't seem to use the same paths for sounds.
look at the available alarm sounds in manila alarms, and compare it to the available alarm sounds in windows clocks and alarms screen, and once you have set a sound for an alarm in winmob, have a look at the sound for that alarm in manila alarms.
i haven't seen this problem since i started only using win mo settings pages for setting alarms.
My daily alarm plays ring only once. How I can make it to repeat itself for 20 minutes?
Thanks
Bump.
i don't believe that everyone here is sound sleeper. lol
there are several ongoing issues with the alarms.
tips to try to help get it working for you are...
use bsbtweaks to turn on "notification dismiss x time" (I forget the exact wording) to turn on proper windows snooze times.
set your alarms and alarm sounds using settings menu all settings clocks and alarms instead of the htcalarms screen.
in settings menu all settings sounds and notifications, in the dropdown find "reminders" and tick show message on screen.
hope these help some.

Klaxon
Klaxon works for me and it is free, I had the same problem with the stock alarm because I'm using S2U2.
Hi there, I can't seem to access the alarm setting screen, am I correct in saying you access is via touching the clock or alarm tab from the home screen?
This isn't bringing anything up, is there another way of accessing it, I can't find one.
Many thanks
Alarm
Hi, go into settings,menu,all settings,clocks & alarms, then touch on alarms at bottom,,,, Quig
Thank you! Am i right in saying i should be able to access it via the clock on the home tab and alarm tab on the home tab? If so I have something broken?
Yes,
I just get close to clock or the words alarm off, it pops up!! Somethings messed up. I'm not sure about any settings, none that I know of. I've got cookies home tab, & editor. Shouldn't matter..
sorry, a follow in question - how do i change the alarm sound, I can't find the option for the life of me...
settings menu all settings clocks and alarms tap the alarm you want to set and choose the sound there.
