I would like to use "silence" mode at night, but still have my alarmclock enabled, how would one do this?
If i put the tytn to silent it also silence the alarm, and if I have some sounds I will get the phone signal at night which I don't want to.
This functionallity exists on EVERY other "normal" phone (nokia, ericsson and so on) but not here? why?
I use pocketx photo contacts program, you can set incoming alerts using the call filter feature to silent, but keeps the system volume on.
Try using Pocket Wakeup. It has a volumn control function which, if you set your phone to silent, it will over write it to make it loud. I'm not sure about vibrate, but I'm pretty sure if you were to set the volumn to minimum, the pocket wakeup can push it to whatever you set.
I use a freeware program called Mortplayer which is primarily an audio player but has a great alarm clock function built in too.
You can set the alarm to either play a playlist or a particular file, you can set increasing alarm and you can set the volume to override the system volume too so it doesn't matter if your phone is on silent (although it will leave the volume high after the alarm has increased it). It has a snooze function (set at any interval you want, 5mins, 10mins etc...) too with a very usable skin for switching the alarm off or on to snooze (ie. large screen buttons which you can tap with your fingers in a semi-conscious state)
Really great little program which I have been using for months with no problem and best of all, it is free
Great!! That seems to do it !

One potential way to do this is:
Change just the right slider on volume to lowest at night. keep the other one on high.
Then go to sounds and notifications and disable text and email notification sounds.
Try using Call Filter Alarm. I think you will love the sleep mode...
Hey guys,
Has anyone managed to get the smart alarm to work?
Everytime I set it up the regular alarm rings, which is too bad since I liked the smart alarm tunes. Not too much information out there about this.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
My smart alarm works, my only issue with it is that snooze won't work when smart alarm is activated.
Seconded. I cant seem to get my smart alarm to work either. Any insight on this?
The Smart Alarm is in addition to the regular alarm. For example, if you set your alarm for 7:00 am and set the Smart Alarm for 3 mins, the Smart Alarm will start off at 6:57. Then the regular alarm goes off at 7:00 in case the SA hasn't woken you up yet.
I also noticed that if I fiddled with the alarm tone at all, the Smart Alarm would uncheck itself. When you've finished making all the alarm adjustments that you want to, go back and make sure Smart Alarm is still checked.

Ha thanks! Evidently when testing this alarm, i was setting the alarm for 2-3 min ahead of time, so the smart alarm didn't have a chance to go off before the regular alarm. Guess i just though that the time set was for the smart alarm to go off not 1-30 min with the smart alarm, then the regular alarm sounding at the end of the set period. This should be put in a FAQ methinks. Doesn't outline it in the user manual...IDK maybe it's just me.
It's not just you. I totally agree that it should be in the manual. I had to run a Google search to figure that out.
Nearly broke my phone last night , the dam snooze went off about a million times ,
why the hell is there no option to disable it?. How do i disable , i have the stock alarm on my phone . not looking to get another alarm app as of yet .
Can somebody please help me ?
goto clock app then slide to the alarm area, then uncheck the alarms
--press menu and settings if you want more advanced options
thanks for the quick reply CodeNameUnknown1 , i have already checked the advanced option there is no way of disabling snooze 5minutes is the shortest time possible
Not sure what you mean?
When my alarm goes off (stock 1.72.405.3) its pull down on the touchscreen to permanately turn the alarm off for the day without activating any snooze time?
AFAIK there's no way to completely remove/disable the snooze functionality from the HTC alarm. You might have to choose between getting a different alarm app, or just making sure you turn the alarm off instead of snoozing in the morning
I have an alarm everyday, .... , i just slide it down, and its gone. i dont know where your problem is. Maybe trying to reinstall the clock.app from your ROM might help
Hi there!
I know there are a few threads about it, BUT I thought as no one obviously knows about the workaround for putting the Nexus 6 in silent mode without the need of an app, I decided to make a seperate thread. It's working on Stock ROM, you don't have to be rooted.
This is how it works:
- Put the phone all the way down to vibrate with the volume down key
- Then tap once on the volume up key so you are on - lets call it "volume step one"
- Now reboot your phone
Congrats, silent mode is back! Unfortunately, you have to do it all over again, if you change the volume once...
Regards

Wait, am I missing something here?
Why not hit the volume button then select "none" from the options of "none, priority, all"?
Enters silent mode pretty easily for me!

I think what people liked about silent mode was it allowed Alarms through. "None" means no sounds or alarms. Priority mode with just Alarms set as priority isn't a workaround because some Apps can still emit sounds. The main problem with this new notification system aside from the fact that it eliminated a couple of real world use case scenarios is it is just flat out not intuitive.

I use Tasker, set media and ringtone to 0 alarms stay at 4, start at 7:00 workdays, end at 4:30 (silent mode except alarms) then volumes return to normal. Works like a charm, this way I don't have to remember to change the volumes when I get to work, or turn them up when I go home....

I use Tasker a lot too, and for many things. And I can't remember now, but what about vibration? I mean in "real" silent mode, vibration is off. If you only set media and ringtone to 0, does your phone still vibrate? I mean in Lollipop you can't even turn vibration off, right?
So my phone is on silent without vibration, so that only my G Watch R vibrates on calls and notifications, with alarms going off on the phone as usual...
"None" is no silent mode for me...

That's correct, there currently is no silent, I did read that they were doing something with the sound settings in 5.1 but not exactly sure what that will look like. I am pretty sure you could get silent back some how if you were to root the phone but I am not ready to go there yet. Other than using a little battery I don't mind the vibration, as is I can get 2 days on a charge without too much effort.

Specifically for apps, you have to flag them as priority for their notifications to go through. Otherwise, in Sounds & Notifications settings you can specify "Priority Interruptions" which you can select system Events and reminders (alarms), Calls and Messages you want to go through.
I use it for meetings and class... so far it has yet to allow a notification that I haven't set to priority.

Still they all vibrate, right?
If your turn on priority mode, no apps will push notifications to you, unless you prioritize them.
None disabled everything.

Nope, no notifications even vibrate lol. Priority mode means, no notifications will wake the device or vibrate unless you prioritize them.

What the other poster probably meant is that apps can bypass Priority mode. This has been thoroughly documented, and according to Google it's "working as intended". Some apps have already fixed it, like Whatsapp, and very recently, FB messenger, but other big ones like Viber and Skype are yet to do it. It's a big nuisance that one has to depend on app developers to conform in order for such an important OS function to work correctly.

You can get the app Nights Keeper, it will do the old silent mode and more. The free version should be enough for simple silent mode, but the premium is only a couple bucks. The actionable notification and the widget are awesome. No root required.
If I toggle my sound options to "do not disturb", it warns me that even alarms will be silenced. So I leave that it as "do not disturb" and then I toggle the sound dropdown menu to be "Priority" which seems to allow my alarm: https://imgur.com/cc0575L
But then when I receive a Twitter reply, or when my phone hits 100% charged it vibrates.
How can I fix this? (I'm on Android v5.0.2)
Do you have Xposed? The use True Silent Mode.
Damn, I somehow activated the Vote-Option. Does anybody know how to change it?
I don't, and I'm about to go away from root because Android Pay doesn't work.
