assuming I do sleep everyday till 7am ... I do not want anyone to wake me up before that time, I would like the wake up alarm to trigger XDA switch from "vibrate" to voice alarms informing about incoming calls if any, and then every voice call is announced with a voice alarm ONLY after a wake up alarm
going a step further ... I would like to set specific and predefined hours to make XDA be silent, say every friday from 1pm to 3pm .... and I want it to be automatic

Don't know if that really does what you want, but you can take a look at a programm called Meeting mute.
Have tested it a year ago. You definitly could say, that you can mute your telephone on existings enty in the calender....

I don't know if it is added to XDA II or not, but I really miss having a Nokia-like profiles (meeting, silent, outdoor, ... etc). It's really tedious to adjust the volume options each time I 'm in a different condition :x

Think this could be done with the Ultra Profiler....
Stefan
ultraprofiler u mean an external software ??
is that software functioning also on XDA I ??
best regards,
monika
I think both programs works on the xda 1.
At the meeting mute software i'm sure.
The ultra Profiler needs WM2003 as i have in my mind.
Just search for it and take a look at it.
Stefan
thank you very much

Hi all, I've noticed sometimes my xda 2 brings backlight on but won't ring nor show anything while a call is incoming.
I'm quite sure it's the well known 32 tasks limit problem, but is there any trick to set priority to high or to nonclosableapp to phone app? The funny stuff is if you push green call button the app is foregrounded and then the call is displayed and then can be answered, but I can't stay all day long watching xda's display for it to lighten up and then going into phone app :roll: !
thanks all

Coming from a Blackberry, I used to use "Phone Only Mode" (Phone only goes off, if and when, it is a phone call) Is there any app or widget that can accomplish this? At night E-mail notifications and Facebook constantly wake me up. I would put it on silent, but I don't want to miss any important calls. Thanks in advance for any help on this matter,
Russ
Look for any apps that set up profiles by time. That should help u. Like from so and so time till the morning shut everything down but ringtone

Thanks I'll look into it.
I use AudioManager to quickly turn down the notifications and/or ring tones all from a single slider screen, but there are several similar apps that will allow you to set up sound profiles and quickly change via location (Locale) or via a widget.

Just disable the auto sync of data. then only the phone works,,,
I've been using bedside for 2 years and it rocks. You can setup white lists for texts, calls or whatever.
I love Tasker. It does cost a small bit but the customizable profiles are awesome. If you just want something for use at night, bedside may be good enough, but definitely look into Tasker if you want to automate anything else (for example,I have it set to start the GPS when I launch Google maps and to shut it off when I exit.

How can I set reapeating of alarm ring??? After every 5 minutes for example???
Yeah i was also wondering, HTC never got alarms quite right..
If your phone is turned off, does the alarm ring? (proper off, not screen off, but hold power, and shut down)?

Which is really retarded. My old ****ty sony ericsson phone that is 6 years old can boot up and activate alarm, when turned off properly.
Why cant HTC figure something out?
To the guy that says he doesnt care for alarm: when one day you will have exams, are tired, u cant think straight, u put ur alarm, turn off ur phone properly, and.. no alarm. and no exams.
Then u will start caring

because your 6 year old phone isn't really off, it is suspended so it can power up and sound alarms. when the hd2 is off it is really off so can't.
the old phones had to do this way because their memory isvolatile,,if youleave your old phone alone for a week, even "off", the battery dies and a hard reset automatically happen
re the alarm not continually ringing, firstly reenable the windows notifications,(can use bsbtweaks, ork at the keys edit the reg key directly) which will give you back the multiple snooze time options.
you can also have a look in
hklm/system/shell/notification/oem/reminder.
i haven't done any proper testing of these keys, and i'm not sure if tidy affect the alarms or just reminders,, i'll get around to it one day.
my alarm is all to hell, doesn't go off, goes off at wrong time etc...
found a fix though....... in the shape of a £3.99 clock radio.
It even has a working fm radio which is more than I can say for my HD2....
so basically you have two options......
buy an alarm clock or just get up when the alarm goes off.....
imo the snooze function is only encouraging laziness in an already slothenly portion of society...
but maybe that's a subject for another forum.....

slothful or slovenly, take your pick (Made up words becoming mainstream, pfffft, wouldn't have happened in my day, bring back the birch, hangings too good for em, and other such nonsense) hehe.
Anyway, been testing my alarms (to the disgust of my missus) and with the windows dismiss x notification tweak (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Shell\Notification\OEM rename NotificationLayout.dll to anything that doesnt exists ((bsb tweaks calls it NotificationLayout2.dll))) and my alarms set using windows clocks and alarms, not sense, repeats every 45 seconds until i interact with the phone in ANY way, then it stops but the alarm popup stays on screen till i dismiss or snooze. I have been snoozing it for 5 mins each time, and letting it ring ten times each time it went off, and i was told to stop after i had snoozed it 10 times, so in ten snoozes, the sound played a hundred times.
So, the only thing i can think of that would be causing it to auto stop ringing would be HTC's NotificationLayout.dll, and that reg edit above disables that, hence mine working? sounds reasonable to me.

Epic Fail (as the kids would say).....
lmao, "fail"... that right there is the very epitome of everything that i hate about how netspeak is migrating to real life.,
Perhaps we can all get a free alarm clock out of HTC if we cry and shout and start multiple threads where we POST EVERYTHING IN LARGE FONT WITH CAPS about how disgusted we are at HTC/microsoft/god/the pope about the dodgy alarms function.

What apps are people using for their alarms?
Right now I use Alarm Droid. I really like it, but i have a problem with it changing my volume settings on its own.
Example: My phone is on vibrate, and I have an alarm that goes off at 9:05am. When I stop the alarm, my volume changes to either silent (which isn't a huge deal), or full volume. Full volume is when I have a problem, because if I don't notice it, I get email or txt notifications during times when my phone needs to be silent.
Has anyone had this kind of problem? If not what apps work reliably for you?
And before anyone suggests it, I can't just use the sense alarm because I am running CleanRom DE which is senseless. Although I have had this problem from the very beginning running the phone bone stock. So...any thoughts?
Sent with a Rezounding HELL YEA!
I use DoubleTwist Alarm, Love it so far, give suggestions for bed time and lets you know how long before the alarm is triggered
Kaloer Clock is my go to. Will Force the alarm volume separate from the system math on snooze or dismiss, quite a few options for customizing the clock face.
umm stock... dont know why i need anything else
what he said. why don't any of you use stock? its just an alarm clock lol. it wakes me up every day without a hitch.

I rarely use an alarm to wake up with... When I need one, I just set an appointment in Touchdown and let its appointment reminder wake me up.
Alarm clock ultra free.... Great features.... quick nap settings are great and so is the advanced math alarm for days where you absolutely must be up.

I just use the stock one.
I really miss the Blur Alarm clock from my Droid X. It's the ONLY Blur thing I miss. I like how the entire screen was the snooze button and you had to slide to dismiss. I wish there was a 3rd party alarm that was set up just the same. I have seen a hack to make the CM7 alarm work to look just like it, but nothing else.
Can't see a need to use anything other than the stock one - wakes me up every morning without problems
I use alarm clock xtreme. It seems to let you set the volume in the app independent of other volume levels.
I use stock. I keep all my volumes on high anyway so no need for anything else.

I use alarms as reminders and have been struggling to find the easiest way to create alarms on the fly. I'm currently using an app called Life Reminders, which has some nice features, but I'm still on the lookout for something better.
I just use the stock one. Works fine for what I need it to do, wake me up

Waking up is my kryptonite. If it's to easy to shut my alarm off, or snooze, I will never wake up, or snooze for over an hour. My boss hates the first, my wife hates the second.
Gentle Alarm, it slowly ramps up in volume so it wakes me up and not the wife.

You can do that in stock, just go to sound in settings and you can adjust alarm volume. Also I use stock sense or aosp, depending on rom

I like having a larger snooze button, I wake up better if I hit snooze a few times and slowly wake up, it makes me feel like I'm getting a little bit of bonus sleep.
If I have to focus my eyes long enough to slide the "snooze" button into the ring, I've already woken up too much.
If stock is good for you, then great. There are some of us that prefer a huge, easy to use snooze button and then making it more complicated for the dismissal part.
The main reason I got the smartband was to use it as an alarm clock. So far it hasn't been able to wake me up even once.
Either the vibration is just too damn weak, or I'm a very heavy sleeper.
Has anyone else experienced this problem, and is it possible to increase the vibration somehow?

Same vibration all around, so doesn't seem to be something wrong with the alarm. Also tested the alarm during the day to make sure it works, which it does, so it looks like this is about me sleeping too heavy or something.
Bummer.
I'm a heavy sleeper, my wife can attest to that, but it has woken me up every day!

Checkout the "Smart wake up" option; see if you have that option turned on.
I don't claim to understand how the feature works; but it says "SMart wake-up wakes you up when you are sleeping lightly". I'm assuming this feature prevents the watch to wake you up through the alarm feature, if you're in a deep sleep?
Do you have the SmartBand tight enough on your wrist?
As far as detecting light/deep sleep I'm not sure how advanced that feature really is.. beyond making an educated guess based on movement patterns that is.
I did try making it tighter, and today it actually woke me up. Downside is it leaves a nice imprint on my wrist. But I can live with that.

It does, but the smartband isn't very reliable when detecting sleep at all from my experience, so I don't really trust it detecting light vs. heavy sleep either.
However, the smart wakeup feature will always vibrate when set up. If you have looked at the description you may have noticed that it's not a set time point, but an interval. It basically should check for light sleep, and wake you up as soon as detected, but at the latest at the determined end of the interval regardless of sleep.

Well I use my smartband as an alarm and it has never failed to wake me up. I use the small band with the last slot left open (the end slot), you must be a very heavy sleeper (I thought I was a heavy sleeper, reaching the record of 13 hours of sleep)
