Very true. Funny thing is that mine (Dutch Toucht) doesn't show 10 but shows 15 minutes twice. It works though.

It's a rom problem, if he's using an official rom, HTC screwed up, if it is a cooked one, the cook's to blaim, either that or he didn't opened the menu.
Anyways, it isn't a WM6 problem.
Doh... sussed it thanks (its called menu now)
pretty off-topic but don't you think it would be cool if the alram clock could alert you with a random song from your library than an alarm sound.
just a random thought
I have another dumb-arse but related question.
I thought you would change the alarm sound by going to 'sounds and notifications' but alarm doesnt seem to be one of the listed events for which you can change the sound. Where do you go to change to alarm sound to something else?
Settings -> System -> Clock & Alarms -> Alarms
look for play sound
then again... i wouldnt use the default alarm in wm6. Its really bad.. however there are other alternatives out there.
I heard pTravelAlarm is nice.. however its like 2mb just for an alarm program?

Yep, but the top one snoozes for 10 minutes anyway... Just a typo

Official rom. Hardly a reason to flash a phone.

they all have trials...
I use alarmToday
SPB Time does not work, the alarm doesn't wake up, and when you turn the phone on after it is due, it then starts alarming.
I use ptravelalarm, love it. I like the big "Stop" and "Snooze" buttons that appear on the screen when the alarm goes off and it has all the other features. I notice on WM6 that the alarm wont sound unless you disable security alerts, but I think everyone here does that anyway.

Exactly - at least you are sure it won't crash/fail to get sound to play etc.. and you won't miss the plane
You can make alarm.lnk with contents:
00#"\Windows\settings.exe" alarm.cpl.xml
and bind a keystroke to it to set alarm quickly.
This is the first time I ever say something +ve about M$ Product
Anyone have link to this alarm you guys love so much. I've tried Sbd time but thats failed me a couple of time so my search continues.
I have WM6, where would I be able to disable security alerts?

The alarm peeps r talking bout is the default Windows Mobile alarm.
Nevertheless, I would go for pocketalarm. Plays MP3's. Dunno if it will run on WM6.

If you mean the soundsettings for alert:
Go to start > settings> sounds and alerts
If you mean something else... could you be more specific?
Try en AlarmPPC. Nice reliable alarm clock. Works under WM6

LlamaV3 mentions disabling security alerts. So I couldn't tell anything more on that other than it was mentioned in this post.
Right now I'm giving a shot to the alarm LlamaV3 mentioned but I'll def look into the rest mentioned by you guys. I do depend on my phone as an alarm so I need to find that perfect reliable alarm.
Thanks for your help guys.
I use CHRONOS from ActiveKitten. I'm loving it.
You can set snooze time to 5, 10, 15 and more
BIG snooze button on your screen will allow you to tap on it and sleep again
Best feature, the alarm sound can increase from low then going to louder and louder. Of course, you would be able to set the increase time. It also does vibrate or not.
It also includes Stop Watch...
Works on WM6.. never let me down except that one time, my SD card was accidentally ejected. My fault though...
And what I found out this morning: With pocketalarm you can use the powerbutton as the snooze button... So I don't even have to open my eyes to snooze
I like the Alarm included with WM6. Lets you set three separate alarms, all with different sound, vibrate and flash options.
I searched the Raphael forums for this and did not find an answer so here is the problem.
My HTC FUZE is running the stock rom with TF3D and my alarm did not go off this morning. I had a calender event scheduled with a 15 min reminder for 8 am and an alarm set for 9 am. The calender event went off as planned but with such a quiet noise it didn't wake me up, and I did not dismiss it obviously. So then the alarm notification also did not go off because there was already one notification that was not dismissed yet. When I check the title bar and click the alarm icon that is there, is brings up both of the two notifications at the bottom of the screen and I can dismiss them. If there is no calender event to dismiss it works fine. I still have to click on the title bar to get it to pop up at the bottom at all though. So I am hesitant to make any calender events with alarms at all for fear that my alarm clock won't work!!!!
Please provide any insight into this that you can!!! Thanks in advance...
Without any calander events and an alarm set for 6:15AM, it has failed to go off every day since I've had the phone. I just installed pTravelAlarm, the same one I used on my Tilt, and it's been working fine.
Not a Fuze issue - rather, a Window's Mobile problem - well documented -
I installed g-alarm and it warned that my device (Fuze) may suffer from a notification bug and that it had to reboot to fix it (guessing registry fix). So apparently someone's aware of the alarm bug/issue.
Haven't had any issues since though (with gAlarm)
I too have the alarm bug on my Fuze running latest ROMeOS. Going to give gAlarm a try like others have suggested.

Guess that is what I will try also. It definitely sounds like a WM bug...
I also have an alarm problem, although lights go off, the alarm doesn't ring. I also have problems with ringing on incoming calls. The speaker otherwise works fine. I have Natfv4.0 installed. Do any of the roms fix this problem?
my
TP's alarm works but the notification dosent pop up to give me the option to dismiss it? how do i fix that?
Is there a registry fix for this?
I don't get pop-up windows any more - I think since i turned off threaded SMS.
Wasn't that an initial problem with the Fuze? I remember having that issue. Just flash to a newer build OS and you'll be fine.
Work phone, not an option.
Surely there's a registry doodad I can change?
It's a Windows Mobile problem as noted, something about duplicated notifications. One suggestion was to download sktools, and use that to clear up your notification que. It is a registry thing I believe, but it's rather a pain in the butt to find where the notifications are and what to delete. SKtools Lite I think can do it, I know it can scan the notification queue and clear it up, but I've never had the problem so far. Would think that Microsoft would have at least made sure the alarm function of a business phone works.
Hi guys! I need an alarm that can repeat the sound at intervals (5/10/15 minutes) and support snooze also at different intervals (5/10/15 minutes). Any idea would be much appreciated Thanks!
G-Alarm will do it for you.
Thanks, works like a charm.

If you prefer the basic WM alarms with the snooze options, you can install the attached cab which will disable the crippled HTC one, and bring back the original WM alarm snoozing options.
Be warned that some top taskbar replacement breaks the snooze option even if you have applied the cab attached here.
hi
how do you install al those things on the hd2?
many thanks grz
you could try klaxon... worked on diamond, not tried it on HD2.
its better than g-alarm (imo) as you can just flip the phone which will set the snooze, or shake the phone to turn off the alarm.
G-alarm has the same function you say klaxon has.
You can tell it to snooze or go off when you flip the phone or shake it.
Yeap, I can confirm, G-Alarm has all that.
Simpler solution (you have the original WM6.1 reminders):
With any registry editor, you have to go to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Shell\Notification\OEM and then rename the following string "CustomUIDLL" in "CustomUIDLLX" ; then you can go back if you need. Soft reset and voilà !

Hi, new member so please excuse me if I'm asking something that seems daft to you more experienced guys, but where you say that the HTC alarm is crippled, what is that about?
The reason I ask, is because I have noticed that my alarm did not seem to be working for the last few days (had my HD2 for around 3 weeks now), and I set it to go off 5 mins ahead to test it, and it beeped once rather than playing the alarm tone that I had set.
Is that what you were referring to when you say that the HTC one is crippled?
Thanks in advance.
Something to keep in mind... I have had a problem since moving to the HD2 where G-Alarm would fail to go off. I woke up late a couple of times to find a windows error message about G-Alarm. Obviously it had tried to go off and failed.
Of course I cant rule out it being affected by something else I have installed or done, but for now I have switched to the HTC alarm and not had any problems.
G-Alarm has a 10day trial though so you can give it a go and just use another backup alarm while you are testing.

do you not have to 'complete a puzzle' before the alarm goes off on g-alarm? or can you opt out of this?
I wanted to use the stock alarm for my X10 mini pro, but it ONLY sounded off once and DOES NOT REPEAT. As a result, I got a warning letter from my work for going to work late.
Now, I'm having trouble finding a good alarm clock, that sounds off the alarm and repeats UNTIL dismissed.. can anyone reccommend me?
if you Snooz it and not Dismiss it will go off again in 15min, that is all i do with my X10
Try kaloer clock
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
or digital clock by social & mobile.

Yeah, Kaloer clock is amazing. Check it out
Android Variations: Check em out!
Math Alarm Clock (the one I use)
One of the best apps EVER.
Also, if you can get good night sleeps get Smart Alarm Clock (it detects by movements the phase of sleep you are so I wakes you up on REM ) (it kindda work, but BLOWS MY BATTERY)
i use "Alarm Klock"(free on the market) :
you can param snooze timer, use MP3 as sound, progressive volume(settable), vabrate (or not), set label name for each alarm ...
For snooze : there a giant button
to stop the alarm, there a button ton slide (like to unlock an iPhone)
im having the same problem after i got the OTA update (on rogers network in canada btw)
the alarm would go silence on its own after a minute of going off, and then it doesnt repeat
:S
How about setting a couple of alarms with the stock app instead of one?
I use shaketowake.
Have to shake every morning about 20 times, and shake it hard for 1 alarm. Believe me you will wake up. First time it took 5 min to shake.
Kaloer clock was working perfectly before the OTA update.
After the update....its a bit slow and not as responsive.
Do you guys have the same issue with it?

Anyone get problem with alarm not running?
I got notification that there is upcoming alarm but never started to ring.
This used to happen on my 6T, could never find out why. I just ended up freezing the stock Clock app and installed Google Clock, which worked.
Since I switched to the 7 Pro, I haven't had the issue.

Having the same issue with no volume on alarms. Did some searching this morning and did not have any luck.
Not sure I understand the concept of "Freezing" with the 1+7 pro. Can you explain in a little more detail?
Are there any known issues if I "disable" the stock clock app and use the Google Clock?
thanks in advance,
I use smart alarm free and works amazing

Yeah i was having the same problem, now using timely app and also samsung clock on my old note 5
I have been a long Google clock user. Used timely (for its ability to sync over multiple devices) for a while but I also found I like to keep some things simple. With simplicity in mind, I am trying to address the low alarm volume with the stock app and have been doing some work on the stock clock app. In settings, all the way at the bottom is the "increasing volume" toggle. When I disable this setting, my alarms behave normally. Meaning, when my alarm goes off at 06:00, it wakes me up, with the alarm I have selected. This operates the same with timers and anything else that uses the alarm volume (Interestingly, when BT is connected, the volume is still decreased but one problem at a time).
Are some of you willing to check and see if you have the same outcome?
thanks in advance.
I have 2 alarms that go off in the morning. The first one never rings but the second does.
Just got my phone yesterday, so I tried the stock clock. Turned volume up to Mac and went to sleep.
Didn't hear it, and I was late to work. I'm going back to Google clock as well.
Anyone find a fix for this?

Beyond using another clock app? Not sure. Its been posted to the 1+ community boards. Little action there though.
This is a really weird issue. On mine only the first alarm wouldn't ring, then none. I installed the Google Alarm and it would sound for the second alarm but today didn't at all.
I wonder if it's something to do with hibernation?

Interesting thought. If you go into battery optimization the stock clock app is not even listed. I switched Google Clock over to "Don't optimize." might as well give it a try.
I'll report back in a couple days,
Cheers
