My girlfriend has a new HTC wildfire and when she uses the alarm it says to slide down to dismiss, but it snoozes and goes off in 10 mins approx. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know how to fix said problem.
Thanx

Under Sounds & Notifications, when one selects "Reminders", there is a tick box called "Repeat".
Presumably this means that when an alarm sounds, it should repeat until dismissed. Mine only plays once. Am I missing something?

Hi there,
Mine's a XDA Exec, and it does repeat although it pauses for about a second or two first. Not nearly loud or persistent enough to be a really decent alarm clock though!
OK, so it seems that aeAlarmPlus is the way to go - looks for an alarm and then comes up afterwards to do a repeating/escalating thing of it's own. Works well.
hi there
ok if u talking about alarms then go to clocks & alamrs --- go to alarm tab then set the time whet ever u want to set then click on the "BELL" icon
there is the option to make it repeat and even u can chose the sound
HTH

Yeah, I am using it too.
My problem is that I cant kill the alarm. It gets repeating and I am getting more and more mad. Or is this on purpose ? as I have to wake up and tick the box of with the stylus....
Anybody has the same problem?

Playing with alarms may have been the reason why my calendar was not able any more to remind me.
When soft resetting even alarms of all kind made me mad.
I hard reset (horrible job with a lot of work to do) solved my problem, but I do not touch the alarm any more.
Hope your problem is different

i have the same problem. It goes off every time and repeats for a couple of times and I dont see any option to close/kill it.. good thing I still have te sense not to bang it against the wall like an alarm clock.
i guess if the built in alarm function is not working or it goes crazy, just use any other free alarm application. i know theres a lot of free application out there.
Just upgraded to the M3100 from C600 and am liking it, however as with all smartphones I have had the built in alarm is pretty useless and I end up switching it off with out realising (I am a heavy sleeper).
I got an application for the C600 called Gentimer which has a nice feature called "Sleepyhead" that requires you to enter a 6 digit random code to actually turn the alarm off, you can snooze without the code but it is required to turn the alarm off.
This isn't fully compatible with the M3100, therefore I was wondering if there are any other alarms with similar functionality that will be of great use to me...
Help please, Monday morning coming up and won't wanna get up...
Thanks

Try PocketAlarm. It has a lot of features to wake up anybody.
Does this PocketAlarm have the ability to have to enter a code to switch off the alarm.
Any other recommendations for good alarms?
Thanks

I really wouldnt rely on the alarm clock on the tytn. mine is very sporadic. the problem is there is a bug in the M$ code that makes the "waking up the phone" part, not work.
I heard of a product called "CityTime Alarms". anyone had an experience of this?
Thanks

yes, that works just as well as all the other alarms and non of them do very well at waking the phone up from standby.

What do you mean? Is not 100% fiable any software alarm other than integrated in WM5?
mdavenport, I like Chronos. In addition to the usual alarms, it has a chime every hour (or fraction) that sounds like... my old Casio watch!!
Thanks for the info...
One ongoing problem I find with the alarms on phones is mainly down to me but can be helped by the software. Basically I always seem to hit the dimiss button and turn the alarm off and then over sleep..
Does Chronos have a big snooze button and small dismiss to help avoid this..
Thanks
Mark
Pocket Wake up has a slightly larger snooze button
Im still struggling to find one I get on with. I am using SPB Time but it seems a little bit overkill for what I want.
Basically, I want one that allows multiple alarms, mp3 tones and a more difficult way to dismiss the alarm so I don't accidentally dismiss all my alarms...
Anymore suggestions...

Hello,
Playing around with the standard alarm clock on my PPC has led me to run late for several important meetings. From what I think what has happened is that i have set the alarm clock and it has not gone off. For some strange reason it doesnt go off when you want it but goes off when your in the middle of a phone call after the set time ! As an example, if i get a call 3 hours later, thats when it goes off.
Anyway, trying to turn the alarm off in the middle of a phone call is another nightmare. I have to put up with it until i soft reset the device.
So....out it goes !
In their wisdom, does anyone have any alternatives to the standard alarm clock ? I don't really want it to do anything fancy. Just go off when it is supposed to, have some better alarm tones, and maybe have a snooze feature for those times i want to get another 5 minutes sleep lol.
try using spb time... you can also use an mp3 as alarm tone
try the MortPlayer...

thank....spb time is working perfectly
I dont remember this happening pre-cupcake. I am a heavy sleeper, sometimes dont even hit the snooze, just let the alarm ring and ring until I get my butt up. Since upgrading to 1.52, the alarm goes off after 10 minutes. It displays red text stating "Alarm automatically shut off after 10 minutes". WTF? There isnt a setting to change this.
Anyone know a way to change this or possible another alarm program (that’s better)?
Klaxon alarm works great, been using it since the free version and i love it. since you use a JF rom the paid version will still work fine if you don't happen to have a free version on your comp
hey all..

it never stop ringing once it started to ring and i need to restart phone only it'd stop ringing..
