repeating alarms - General Questions and Answers

I just upgraded my treo 700 to wm6. (heh heh) withthe stadard verizon rom. seems to be working great.
I was previously using Phone alarm and I only miss one thing
repeating alarms.
I would like missed calls to repeat untill dismissed
voicemail to repeat until dismissed
these are greyed out under sound and notifications
reminders to repeat 3 times with 5 minutes each time.
I could make a long (15 minute) sound that is moslty silent for that last one but makes noise at 0, 5, 10 and 15 minutes

Have you taken a look at SPB Phone Suite It allows repeated alarms and all.

phoneAlarm has those options to.

Beep every x mins when a reminder is active

When I set up a reminder, my WM6 phone beeps for few secs. But if I am not near the phone at that moment, I might miss that reminder and I don't get to know about it until I look at the phone. Is there any way for the phone to ring an alarm every 15 mins or so when there is an active reminder that needs to be snoozed or dismissed?
try phone alarm. It works well for me, there is a free demo to try too.
And if you are not interested in the overheads of PhoneAlarm try AlarmPal from the same publisher as PhoneAlarm
Atleast on my phone, with WM6, when I have an alarm go off, such as an appointment, or an email, I'll get the reminder tone like every 1 or 2 minutes. What phone/ROM are you using?

[software] Timer - small time periodic alarms

Is there a program that could sound an alarm from time to time in a switching pattern?
Something like 3 minutes and then sound the alarm, than 1 minute and sound the alarm again, than 3 minutes and sound the alarm again, 1 minute... you got the picture.
I'm searching for a Boxing Round Timer ( I actually used the Search tool but the only relevant thread had no replies).
I don't know if this is exactly what you want, but take a look at G-Alarm.-
i think G-Watch can be used for that but i'm not sure

Mute everything but the ringer at night?

I don't have a land line & leave my phone charging on my headboard at night. My wife has gotten really ticked at it vibrating & making noise whenever it gets an E-mail in the middle of the night.
Is there an easy way to mute everything but the normal phone ringer (still want to get calls in the middle of the night if they come in)? I don't want to mute the phone entirely, as I could miss emergency calls. I'd love to have it quiet everything at a certain time, or at the push of a button, or by running an app or something easy.
The wife is currently threatening to fling my phone out the window if it wakes her up again, & I don't want to disable the sound/vibrate entirely as it wouldn't be effective during the day.

a couple options...
Change Activesync to use off-peak times and set email delivery as manual so that you have to tell it to check for mail during off-peak times. Then you will only get sounds emergency calls, drunk dials, emergency texts, and drunk texts in the middle of the night. This also assumes you don't have any reminders set to sound at midnight...
Use a profile app like G-Profile or PhoneAlarm to control advanced automatic switching of profiles/sounds/notifications based on time of day and day of week or other advanced switching options.
the version of htc volume overlay i have lets me turn the volume down on system all the way while keeping the ringer one up.

[Q] Multiple Alarms & Reminders

Greetings,
My wife and I both have the Samsung Focus S phones on AT&T running the 7720.68 build. Mine is dev. unlocked and hers is stock.
Both of our phones duplicate alarms and reminders. For instance, if I set a calender reminder for 1:00 today, when 1 comes around my phone will alert me. I then have to dismiss at least 2 of the same reminders; usually there are 4.
My wife's phone does the same with alarms that she sets. Additionally, hers will not snooze an alarm. Pressing snooze does silent the alarm, but half of the time the alarm never goes off again.
Does anyone else have the same problems? Is this a known issue? Are there any solutions (other than throwing the phone in the river)?
Thanks.
