calendar alert/notification sound - Galaxy S I9000 General

Is there a way to have an alarm sound when setting appointments or reminders using the Calender? For some reason I only get a beep or the prelisted alternative one beep sound when I get a Calender notification. I would have preferred a more 'alarm-like' feature. Even the beep is turned off if I decided to put my phone in silent mode. That is stupid. The alarm clock is set to go off even in silent mode why can't the calendar notification do the same? What's the point?
If there is no way to rectify this issue is there another calendar that as the alternative to set an alarm; single or continuous be recommended by someone please?

silent alarms - but sounds are set on

my problem is, that alarms are silent. wizard is actually waking up, alarm's message and time is showing, vibra is working but... no sound at all. it used to work ok, i didn't change anything in settings. only thing is, that i've installed check notifications few days ago and removed duplicate clock.exe notifications - maybe that's the reason? but on the other hand - calendar reminders are working just fine, with sounds.
anyone had such problem and solved it without hard-resetting device?

Reminder POP UP WINDOW

Hi All,
Why I don't see a pop up window when their is an active calender reminder or the alarm is on? the window appears only when I enable it.
Is their a tweak to fix it?
Thanks,
system settings/personal/sounds
on the second tab, where you can configure the ringtone, there's more than just the ringtone. You can set the sounds, vibration and notification behaviour for all events. There's also a reminder event.
But I noticed that the reminder notification gets disabled from time to time. Don't know why.

No notifications come through when phone is standby

Hello, i dont get any notifications when my phone is on standby mode.
this includes:
Email
SMS
Alarms (windows alarms)
notifications for calendar events.
how does i fix?
okay, so try going to: settings - all settings - personal - sounds and notifications. There thick what you want. With the SMS notification while on stand-by, there is a bug which HTC solved (releasing a hotfix - found on htc.com). Tell me if you have any more problems and if you have solved these problems
No calemdar notofocation when the pin is set-up
Hi,
I have a similar problem. When the phone is on standby and locked (eg. after 15 min) I can not get any calendar notification working.
They all show up when I wake up the phone and enter my code.
The only workaround is to disable the lock, but I need it to be set-up (company policy)
Note that other notifications are ok:
- Call
- SMS (after installing the patch from HTC)
- Alarm
Thanks

Any progress on this?, I have installed the official htc hotfix for sms, makes no difference for me.
While the sms not notifying is a frustration, I could probably live with it but...
Alarms are the real problem for me... I can't rely on the device as an alarm clock as the alarm simply doesn't sound until I bring it out of standby with the power button.
Any cure for this, is it hardware or software? do cooked roms exhibit same behaviour?
P.
I have the same problem. I have downloaded the fix from HTC, but still my email does not play a sound (the LED flashes though).
I have not checked other things (SMS, alarms etc.)
It would seem VERY silly if the alarm doesn't sound!!!!
For e-mail, you have to go and turn on the notification for that in the sounds and notifications settings,
Settings-->All Settings-->Personal-->Sounds and Notifications-->Notifications-->Event:Messaging: New e-mail message
And select it to play a sound of your choosing.
it is not switched on by default, in this case that is good for me, if I got a notification alarm every time I got a new e-mail, my phone would be sounding alarms pretty much all the time....
The alarm problem not waking from standby, I have posted in another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544112 a possible cure, working for me for 2 days at least...

After update can't figure out how to turn off sound notifications

So after the latest update I now get audible notifications for everything... emails, text messages, facebook updates, you name it. Driving me mad! I just want text messages to have an audible alert. I looked under the settings for each account and under the audio piece and I can't figure how to change it. Someone please point me in the right direction
Go into the each of the apps that have notifications and change the ringtone for it to silent. Such as gmail or email or whatever Silent should be the second ringtone in the list after Default Ringtone.
What about the Low Battery warning ? How do I turn that off ?
I get my phone ringtone and it is a pain in the a*se. I was even on a call and all of a sudden I am listening to my phone ringtone going off at the same time.
It seems that this phone or motoblow is missing the defaut notification of "silent" anyone know how to enable this? It is a pia going into every app, to set it to silent. Thanks -Mike

[Q] Is it possible to have vibrate on for ringtone and off for notification?

The volume control and vibration control on this phone is much less customizable than I would like.
Vibration mode turns everything to vibrate, but I get vibration notifications for emails as well as text and everything else. I would like it just to vibrate for ringtones and text if possible.
On my old phone I was able to turn off vibration for notifications and leave my gosms to do the vibration for the text, but it seems like there is no way to turn off vibration for notifications and leave it on for ringtone on this phone.
Has anyone found a way to turn the vibration for notifications OFF in vibration mode? While still leaving vibration ON for ringtones?
Any help would be great.
Thanks

settings>sound> go to the samsung applications section, you can adjust everything individually there... call, messages, email, calander
Yeah try this man like what evil posted settings>sound> go to the samsung applications section, you can adjust everything individually there... call, messages, email, calander
does this allow me to have diff settings for different profiles? I want the sound off for everything but vibrate on for everything but only when set to VIBRATE mode, but when I change to Sound mode, I dont want any notification to vibrate and I want sounds to play for everything, can I do that without having to go into each individualapp setting and changing it?

I tried this but it still vibrates when I receive an email. I'm using Gmail and have the setting for vibrate off in the Gmail app. Does anyone know a secondary app that can control all the notifications other than light flow? I'd even use something like that to fix it. I just want it to vibrate for phone calls when in vibrate mode. Have you guys been able to turn off other vibrations with the method suggested?
