problem with alarm? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

when i put it to sleep mode,the alarm doesn't sound..it seem that the alarm cuts out in sleep mode..is there any tweak for this issue because i've been searching the internet and found that i'm not the only one with this problem?..
if there is no tweak,is there any freeware software that allow alarm to ring in sleep mode?..
i really need help because i'm kinda new to PDAs...

What do you mean putting the Diamond into sleep mode? I only suspend the Diamond by pressing instead of press and hold the power button. The alarm will sound at set schedule. Software like alarm running in background needs Windows mobile to be in suspend mode in order to work.

what i mean is pressing the power button..when you press it once,it will turn off the screen and put it to sleep mode...if you press and hold it,it will turn off the device..2 different things there..i know that the alarm will sound,but try waiting for it sleep again and the alarm wont continue to repeat again eventhough i checked the option of repeating the alarm in the settings..this means that if you set the alarm..alarm will sound but when the device go back to sleep mode,it wont sound anymore..

sorry...accidentally posted too much...dont know how to delete

Make sure your phone isn't silent or set to vibrate only because it won't ring in either of these two cases- the ringer has to be on- also make sure you check the appropriate days of the week that you want it to ring on.

I have the same problem
In particular, I put alarm and it does not sound HOWEVER reminder (5 minutes later) sounds OK
I have checked already all setting I could find. phone is not in silent mode (again reminder sounds OK)
What is also strange I do not have settings of sound for alarm. I have one for reminder but not alarm...
Does anybody else have this problem?
Any ideas regarding solutions?

problem with alarms

Hallo,
I seem to have the following problem with WM5.
it happens sometimes that the alarm rings, however the notification message does not appear and I can't turn the alarm off. So it keeps ringing a lot of time, even if I disable alarms and notifications. If I turn off the volume (which is not a solution anyway) it still vibrates. Also, the red light in the upper right corner keeps on flashing. Soft resetting the device doesn't solve the problem: after reloading, the alarm is still ringing.
I have 3 alarms that are set to ring at an interval of 10 minutes, like 7 am, 7.10 am, 7.20 am.
It looks like this happen when the third alarm rings and the device is turned off.
Has anyone experienced the same problems?
any clue?
thanks

How to stop vibrate pulse on reset/power on.

I usually have my phones on a scheduled soft reset in the middle of the night. I put it face down so the light wouldn't wake me but the Kaiser(Qualcomm) does a vibrate pulse as if I needed that... Anyone know how to disable that?
Put it in your sock? *cough*
i wanna to know the answer too....
Anyone?...

I have a couple ideas but they involve either a hammer, or a fish tank.....
Seriously I am looking around but have not found anything yet
Sorta weird you can't disable this :|
Diable vibrate
OK.. might seem odd but a found some materail that said that some of the software used to disable the led with kill the vibrate feature... I could not find the software.. but it give a place to start

There is a software, but I think a registry tweak will be easier:
Code:
Hkey_Local_Machine/Drivers/Builtin/AllLEDMgr
Change the "Index" value from 1 to 0
Soft-reset the device
Killing the vibrate isn't a feature, it's a consequence in this case.
And, it's not killing the vibrate on reset/power on.
I think this is something on the chipset level that can only be resolved by a altered ROM or "chipset" update from Qualcomm...??
stop vibrate at every soft-reset
Has someone been able to stop the vibrate starting at every soft-reset ?
I prefer to think of it more as a shudder whilst yawning as it wakes up
How to reduce the vibration time period ?
When I put my PPC in vibration mode and a remind alarm arrives, my PPC is vibrating for a TOO much long time ! I just want it to make, 1 short vibration , how do configure the PPC to do that ?

Surely this must be a hardware issue which can't be changed?
I've change my ROM and radio more times than i can remember and still have the same issue. Correct me if i'm wrong but don't some of these ROM bases even come from different WM hardware (which doesn't have this problem)?
I don't think the vibration duration is linked with the hardware, there must be a way to configure this, as it is possible to configure the ringtone to increase the sound or not.
Anyone has already tried changing the vibration duration ?

There's 2 ways you can put your phone into vibration mode:
1: tap the speaker icon on the top bar of the phone and select "vibrate" from the on, vibrate, off options.
2: tap the speaker icon on the top bar and leave it set to "on", but drag the two volume sliders to the bottom.
If you use method #1, when you get a notification it will give you 3 short bursts of vibration.
If you use method #2, the duration of vibration for reminders and other notifications (email, sms, etc.) is related to the length of the audio alert. I have my phone set to make noise and vibrate at the same time and when I get a message, it vibrates for the entire time that it's making noise, and not a bit longer. When I drag the volume sliders down instead of putting it exclusively into "vibrate" it vibrates for the same amount of time, so I imagine it is still playing the sound file I have associated for that notification, just not outputting it to the speaker, and vibrates while the sound file is playing.
So if you want a shorter vibration when your alarm arrives, choose a shorter beep, tone, jingle, whatever sound you want it to make when you get an alarm. Or use option #1 for putting it into vibration mode if the 3 short bursts are acceptable to you.
The vibrate upon startup is some low level thing, and I have no idea how to change it.

Alarm volume doesn't work

my alarm volume doesn't seem to work, i have the volume turned on, i have the volume cheked in sounds and notifications. I worked before, the only thing i do is turn the phone on vibrate when i go to work and turn the volume back on when i get off, i've been doing this every since i got the phone in november, now all of the sudden the volume doesn't want to work on teh alarm when i have the volume on, when i go to the alarm i get the popup that says make sure the volume is turned on in the sounds and notifications settings, which it is. i did a soft reset that didn't work, i then took out the battery and sim and put them back in thinking the phone just needed to clear itself or what ever kind of like shutting down a pc completely, and that didn't work either, any ideas on this? also every since taking out the battery and sim card, i now i have a blue circle in the top bar next the atenna were if i push it, it brings up the option to ativate PTT anyone know how to get rid of this?

anyone? i managed to get teh second part were i get the blue icon on the top bar to go away, but the alarm part i can not figure out.
Perhaps you should try custom alarm applications like Pocket WakeUp or Mortplayer or something the like.
Most of them can override volume control to a fixed point (even if you put your Kaiser on vibrate, the alarm app starts itself and sets the volume to a chosen strength, like 50%)

I had sound problems once. It happened when I set a music program to associate with mp3's (default is Windows Madia Player), once I removed the association, all played normal again.
I think I changed it with the back Advanced Configuration Tool.
Or try your alarm with a wav or mwa file, perhaps you'll get sound then.
No sound
I've had my Tilt for 2 days, and since I flashed the latest Dutty 6.1 ROM I have no sound from alarms, music, sliding keyboard, phone ringer...nothing. I can hear the other caller talking and they can hear me. My phone vibrates but does not ring, even though I have it set for vibrate and ring. Can anyone help?

HD7 bugs with alarmclock?

Is anyone else experiencing these bugs?
This usually happens after an alarm has went off or if i have not noticed that one has been going off.
* The bottom speaker just turns off, no sound is received. So i'll get a phone call and i answer but no one can hear me, reboot fixes the issue but wtf.
* just 10 min ago the alarm went off to remind me of something and i hit dismiss and the phone went back to the main tiles. I tried to lock the phone and it didn't do anything. I hit the back button and nothing happened, i then try to navigate and the screen is frozen. Live tiles are still moving but no input is read. The power button doesn't work as well, i had to pull the battery.
Anyone have these problems?
I have the same issue about the alarm. I have multiple alarm setup and then if one of them alarms go off and i didn't turn it off the screen just froze, there is no input from the touchscreen but the tiles are working. I guess it is a bug in the programming that disables the touchscreen if the alarm that goes off wasn't turn off.
Hopefully this is fixed with the rumored update on thursday.
Alarm Bug
+1 with the alarm bug. Hope the software update fixes the poor sound level as well, as a working alarm would be nice but a working alarm that i can hear is much better
+1
Same problem
I use Nokia X2 for alarm clock
Alarm Problems
I use an app called Nightstand clock from the Marketplace. The sound of the alarm tones is much louder than wp7 alarm tones. Give it a try it hasn't let me down yet & more importantly has never froze. It can even run under the lockscreen. It hasn't affected the sound on my HD7 either.
Well i have the same problem and for now i download alarm clock 7 and only works if the phone its not lock cause in lock status the alarm does not sound.
I also have this problem
alarm goes off, and if i don't hit dismiss and let it run, the mic gets turned off
grrr
+1, i am also having the same issue
+1, i am also having the same issue. :laugh:
I have HTC HD7

Question Sometimes alarm has no sound in silent mode

Hi, sometimes I will put my phone on silent and on a couple of occasions, I have been awake when my alarm is due to go off, and the screen changes to the alarm screen and has the slider to turn it off, but there is no sound at all.
Most of the time there is, but I wonder why sometimes there isn't.
Has this happened to anyone else?
I have checked the alarms, and they all have the volume set to full.
Regards
James
It happened to me too. Today too. I would like to understand if there is a issue or I am to switch off the alarm while sleep
