Strange ringtone problem

Hi All,
I got a ringtone problem recently in my HD, which is quite annoying.
I'm currently using default ringtone with vibration.
After using the machine for 1-2 days, and the memory consumption is over 60%, I found that the ringtone and vibration function will off automatically, and I missed some calls.
Going to the phone options, I try to test the ringtone (both come with HD and some mp3 ringtone I added to), but system popup a message said the ringtone file is corrupted!
Obviously it is not the case, so I run a htcAddict cleanRam utility to free memory.......oh no.....the ringtone & vibration works again!!
I've installed a D3D driver recently, and increase the glyph cache, will it be the cause?

How to fix alarm clock settings

hey does anybody has knowledge about alarm rings? My alarm does ring...and the alarms repeats...but just every 30 seconds. So it does not repeat constantly...how can I change this in new leo roms? Who can help? Thanks for your contribution!!!

nobody has any idea?

Same problem for me but on the HD2.
And don't say G-alarm... how can I fix the standard wm alarm?
//Johan

Could that be related with ringtone you are using?
Tested with other ringtones?

No I didn't test it so far...but it worked with the same ringtone in the past. That's why I am wondering.

I have tested other standard HTC/WM alarmtones. Same thing...
But my alarm doesn't repeat itself every 30sec, just two times than only popup window.
(Running standard 1.43 Swedish ROM)

Alarm plays 2 melodies when it goes off

After reading a lot I still didn’t find a solution for my problem:
The alarm plays 2 melodies, one of the clock and one of the remembering when the alarm goes off.
Can somebody help my plz, Thx Mad
HD2 Rom: 1.48.404.2 NL, Manila: 2.5.19211619.0, Radio: 2.06.51.07

Had the same problem, i't disappered for me when i disabled the "my location" function.

Update:
I'm tired of searching a solution of my problem.
I just install G-Alarm. This is working good for the moment. Together with the patch “12aon Alarm Hack Home Tab.cab” you can access G-Alarm directly on your main page.
Still if someone has a normal solution I still like to know it. So all info related to this topic is welcome.
Now I found this:
and this reg can fix clock problem(only alert notification ring)
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications]
"AlertInterrupt"=dword:00000000
Link: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=610927
Maybe ill will test is later

Any update on this dual alarm ringing?
Mine also plays the Alarm ring (Alarm-Classic) and the Reminders ring (Ring-Buoy)
The Alarm ring is designed to get me up (am) & remind me to take medication (2 x pm) and the reminders a gentle ring in the room for Outlook calander items.
Having both when the Alarm goes off is too much!

I have installed a custom rom and now having no problems.

too late for your solution, yet you need to go into system sound settings, and disable "notification sounds". That can be enough reason for the alarm jingle not to sound at all sometimes, afaik

Alarm Clock, simple with MP3?

Hi All,
Had my Desire for a couple of days now and I am well pleased. Except,
I would like to find a simple Alarm Clock app that supports
MP3 as sound
Vibrate
Snooze
And a way to turn it off
Basically, you all remember the old radio Alarm clocks everyone had, You set your time, you set your radiostation and you fell asleep.
It had a MASSIVE snooze button on top and an off button on the side.
That's what I want.
I've tried looking through market but 8 of 10 have a review saying "Does not ring at all" and well. If I see that in a review it's out straight away.
Thank yuo kindly for any help given.

the built in alarm allows snooze and vibrate as well as turning it off - not worked out how to get it to link into mp3 yet like you could on the G1

GOT IT!
If I set any of my MP3s as a ringtone it then comes up in the list of choosable music in the standard alarm as well....
But you need to have actually SET IT as you ringtone once first...

How about make a folder on the SD root called "alarms" and put mp3's in that? This is my first Android phone and even i figured that one out lol.

Just make folders like these.
Ringtones:
/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
SMS Alerts:
/sdcard/media/audio/notifications
Alarm Alerts:
/sdcard/media/audio/alarms

Or they can be on the SD cards root like mine.

How did you manage to work out that??

Are there any apps similar to G-Alarm on Windows Phone?
Ie with multiple alarms, random mp3, weather, calculation/maze tasks, tilt/shake sensor, speech, etc.

I've found the alarm exact u are finding, just search Alarming at Market. I'm quite satisfied with it. Shake to snooze feature I most like

you don;t need the \media\audio\ at the start.
just shove the ringtones, notifications and alarms folders in the root of the card.

hi everybody. I ve found a lot of alarm apps on the market, but none could wake up my phone and thus me then .
Q: is there any timer-application that is able to turn the phone on -for alarm purposes while it is off, when i sleep ?
if there would be any app of this self-turn on in a specified time of a day, that would solve my buzzer problems.
sorry for that noobish question I am new using smartphone.

I'm looking for an alarm program that chooses randomly in an mp3 folder for the alarm.
I couldn't find anything like this for the moment.

Alarm sounding alarm AND alert!!

This is an odd one. HTC's answer is to do a hard reset but if there is a reg entry or something I would rather try that first.
I have an alarm set with a sound I have placed in the windows directory. That works fine...
But when the alarm triggers it plays my default alert sound almost at the same time as my preferred alarm sound.
Has anyone come across that before?
Cheers
Rus

Yes mine does this - it plays an Alert sound right before the alarm tone rings, i think it's my text message alert sound..
It's not really an issue i guess just a 'quirk' ... doesnt bother me in the slightest..

i saw this on the stock ROM, and there are still quirks to the alarms in later winmo builds.
if you set an alarm from the home screen, i.e. the htc alarm, then go to all settings clocks and alarms alarms tab, you will see the sound changes aren't always carried over.
it doesn't do the dual sound on the later builds, but the settings pages still don't match.

Dual Alarm Sounds
Does no one know if there is a reg hack to cure this?
Having just got my phone set up the way i like it, I dont really want to have to load a new ROM just yet!

I was annoyed by this as well. For me it worked to disable the first entry in settings -> sound+display -> notification sounds. I don't know the exact term on english ROMs but I hope you get what I mean. It's where you set the sound for incoming mails and messages.
