Can you provide further details in regards to "modifications" you've made to your device?
Listing those could potentially offer some kind of lead as to what your issue might be.
download Klaxxon - this is very good alarm programme
same issue. had different qtec and htc phones so far and alarm doesn't work on any of them. means - it works but not always.
I have quessed that alarm is linked to the clock on the display and that is linked to system clock. sometimes the link doesn't work properly.
often happens that the clock in the middle of the screen and in the corner show different time, sometimes the difference is few hours. it goes away with next minute change but still funny. I think that the application that controls the clock and alarm is not working in highest priority compared to other apps running on background.
I highly recommend G-Alarm, the HTC alarms sucks!
When I first got my phone, I was late for work 3 days in a row! I quickly found out this was Windows phone issue.
G-Alarm hasn't let me down once.
I had the same problem once but I think I have answer. My alarm didn't sound when my battery was below 20%. When I charge the battery the alarm work great. Does someone have the same scenario?
Nope, mine doesnt work properly at any charge.
Sometimes it sounds, sometimes it doesn't.
I used to have Galarm, but the phone died. So I lost it. And Im not happy about forking out for it again....

To be honest I could not rely on the alarm when using a stock 1.66 ROM. Since using Artemis ROM I have not single issue with the alarm not working.
i had the same problem with the artemis rom, as well. i would try another third party application as suggested by others.

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.
Hi all,
I've been having problems with the alarms for an year now - they've been working and not - horrible. I know this is a known problem and has been widely discussed; there are some tools for fixing etc. But can someone please explain in short what is this thing that makes the alarms not to wake the device and to popup silently? And what's the remedy for the problem? Is there a fix that you do one time and you're done, or you have to periodically clean things up?
Thanks in advance, I really hate to ask my roommate for his alarm clock when I have an important meeting the next morning

If it weren't so sad, it'd be funny. Honestly, I'm considering buying a $5 alarm clock to supplement my $400 PDA and know that I won't oversleep. Utterly absurd.
i only had 1 alarm clog soo far which would result in no alarms giving any sound at all
it did display and the red diod would blink but no sound
did memmaid or what ever to fix it as softreset dident do anything
Hi,
I flashed successfully to Dr Gonzo's 6.1 for vox and its great!! But...
One major issue I have is the alarm clock that doesnt work properly for me. The clock is fine as far as I can tell but when I set the alarm, it goes off at a completely different time!!
If I set the first at 7:20am and the second at 7:40am, the alarms will ring at 7:10am and 7:55am, for example. It doesnt ring at the allocated times!!
Anyone have this problem or does someone know how to fix this important feature??
Thanks!!
Maybe a hard reset/reflash? Usually helps for problems like this.
If this isn't a solution for you then i don't know either.
Good luck
oh dear, its getting more strange as well.
Last night I cancelled my alarms, but both still went off at 7:xx am!!!
Does someone have an alternative to hard-resetting??
I installed SmartToolKit on my device btw, would this make a difference??
Thanks again
SmartToolKit has it's own alarm schedules, did you check (disable) those too?

How do I disable this?? I tried looking for it under the start menu and its own control panel, but cant find smarttoolkit's own alarms.
Any help appreciated!
Start -> My Schedules (a few lines above Control Panel)
its got nothing in the schedules window.
ANY other ideas??
i had the same problem with this rom n fixed it by installing another rom
its hard to believe the only solution to this is to install a new ROM!!! Have you tried to re-flash the device??
(Alarms work fine without smarttookkit loaded btw - doesnt that mean theres something wrong with smarttoolkit instead??)

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've used pTravelAlarm for many years (Since my old XDA Orbit) - It's not free (not expensive £10-£15 I think).
This WILL wake up you phone when in standby. (Which is what I take you to mean by off?)
Obviously if you phone is completely off then I don't think anything will work.
No, thats not the problem! i never shut down my phone!
The phone is one and fine, but in the morning when its time to play the alarm sound, It either Frezes! and u have to do a soft reset!
Or it Frezes and Dies (the Screen is Totaly shut) and still you have to make a soft reset to get the phone stated again.
I wanna fix the orginal alarm since i dont wanna instal many apps + i dont use the alarm funktion more than once a day.
All my old mobile phones switched on at the alarm. I dont want to sleep with my HD2 on near me. So i switch it off... why is this so hard for the alarm to work?
Yeah the alarm sure give us a hell of a problem, it will only be on for a few seconds and its off again, the first day i shutdown my phone and i didnt know that the alarm didnt work if u shut off the phone, and luckly i have my n73 to wake me up... does anyone have any good solution for this...
thank you...
