hello, anyone else have issues with alarms not sounding when setup through spb time ?
the alarm is actually triggered, appears on screen - just no sound !
this has happened several days in a row with diff alarm sounds.
last night i set a normal windows mobile alarm and setup a spb time alarm for 1/2 hour later. They both fired but still no sound from the spb time alarm.
If you know the way around this, can you please post the answer.

SBP Time is not compatible with WM6. They do not list it as being compatible (as they do with some of their products) - see SPB Time Product Page. I have had this issue in the past on WM6 on the Uni and now steer clear of SPB Time except on WM5.
Same here, no sound
ah ok, thanks for pointing out the wm6 compatability issue.
thought it was just me the first couple of days..somehow sleeping through the alarm. when u press the dismis button it does play the sound for a second or two though..crazy.
anyway, at least spb_time displays the time ok as its name suggests it should

Actually, you may find it doesn't display the correct time. I found it is sometime a minute or so behind (as sometimes is the clock on the taskbar in WM6)!!!
Anyone have a suggestion for an alarm clock program with will work??
the standard wm6 alarms work fine, whilst u can use spb to display time on the today plugins
Have you tried the "Wakeup Tweak" (on the options page)?
Works fine for me here.

Interesting. I had the same problem with or without the tweak. I'm currently trying out Chronos by ActiveSync which is working well, but they don't have the nice Today plug-in like SPB time...
works fine here, no probs, wakeup tweak enabled
have never missed any alarm.
indeed, time lags a few seconds

I had a weird thought... I know I enabled wakeup tweak but it still didn't work. Now I'm thinking probably should have done a reset in between, otherwise did the tweak really install... Will try again and report back.
How is that possible. Mine also has no sound, whether the wake up tweak is enabled or disabled. Do you use wm06?
Applied tweak, reset, still no sounds.
hope the following will help. this is what i have done in my htc x7500
1. in spb time options, wake up tweak enabled.
2. spb time screensaver disabled
3. wm6 settings, sounds and notifications, check events (warnings, system events), programs notifications (alarms, reminders)
4. wm6 alarms all three disabled.
5. in wm6 power options, uncheck power off device if not used for xxx minutes, for both battery and ac power
6. in wm6 backlight options, do what you like.
then soft reset ( i do it after i make any changes)
hope it works now for you
however
i will make a video to show you it works and upload it to youtube, will be tonight though, still at work
i fact will make a video with all the settings i use. the latest version of spbtime worked
from day 1 i installed it with the dopod wm6 rom.
now i use pk2, which is based on the same rom
just give me some time, will be around midnight, local time, athens , greece
please give me feedback if with the above settings, the spb alarm workrd

With regards to step 5, won't this have a negative impact on battery life???

so far, battery lasts 3 days this way. you are certainly right that with the power off checked the battery life will increase dramatically, but for the sake of the spb alarm, this is how it works for my x7500.
have the settings i use in my x7500 solved the spb alarm problem?

I already have battery issues. I tried everything but step 5, with no success. Apparently that is the key. I have gone back to Chronos, which isn't quite as nice but at least it works without a battery drain...
wgary, just to let you know that with the official htc rom wm6 (europe) and without any tweaks (apart from the spb tweak in its options), spb functions normally.
could it be an issue of dopod rom? do not know...
or maybe the use of other programs may interact with spb time?
just a thought... have you tried the wm6 fix sound? just in case? ( look for it in pk 2 thread)
this is really weird stuff man...

sorry for not uploading the video on time, had little time and probs with pc
will do so as soon as possible
Please try updating your version of SPB Time to the latest version. I did some forum spelunking and found that they had a new version that fixed this problem. My friend and I just tried it on our Tytns and it worked for both of us... even with the phone in standby!
Good luck.
First of all, thank you for your interest and feedback! Mostly due to your request I want to present you a new version.
Version 1.25 changelog:
1. Added Connections on/off
2. Added alarm - poor one
Version 1.20 changelog:
1. Added new profiles: WiFi on/off, Bluetooth (BT) on/off, Phone on/off. Added also Soft Reset.
2. Some minor changes.
Version 1.10 changelog:
1. Added half-hours (I think quarters are too much).
2. Hour format (24 or 12) is automatically changed depending on your regional settings.
3. I don't have VGA device, but I think now the screen is squeezed a bit so it can fit to VGA square screen. Please, try and tell me what happens.
4. Added sound profiles - low, medium, high and very high.
5. Number of settings increased from 4 to 15.
Please, download TProfiler120.CAB for latest version.
Automatically switches device sound mode(available profiles - sounds on, sounds off, vibrate, volume low, medium, high, too high), turns on/off wifi, bluetooth, phone mode and soft resets at selected hour and weekday and thus saves your battery power. Simple application, doesn't occupy memory. Tested only on HTC HD2 but should work on other devices too (TP2, Touch HD/Blackstone - tested thanks to replies to this thread).
It works fine on TP2
Great application.
It would be great if it had also a 24-hour mode .
It would also be great if we could set the device to change to a certain volume on the Ring and System. I like to turn my phone down to 2 notches on both of those and crank it back after 5pm.

+1 on this request.
Would be also great if one could change profile on headset plug-in/plug-out.
When I softreset the phone it gives me a non signed error.
VGA please

looks very promising as of this is really important to have because i tend to forget to switch my phone to silent when im at school
ill be watching this thread
Great application !
Feature request: time in quarter/half hours too.
You might want to add some additional 'rules'. If you have a different time schedule for every day in the week, 4 just aren't enough...
Awesome
Been waiting for a free app like this. The Connective Tools one is nice, but I love the continuing user driven development of XDA. The suggestions on here are great and I echo the setting the volume to a custom level and the quarter/half hours things.

+1 though 5 min time slots would be better. Are going to try and integrate the App so it will switch on calendar appointments?
just installed 1.10 on my HD, but when I start the app it alerts "Doesn't exist", and after tapping 'ok' the app doesn't respond anymore, actually the complete screen doesn't respond. Using the hardwarebuttons I can go back to my homescreen and then using the system taskmanager I can shut the app down after that everythings fine..
anybody got an idea? because it looks like a useful app to me
Dear Xsite3,
I think you had to wait for a while - when started first time the application takes more time (1-2 minutes).
Just installed v1.1 on my HD2 and i get the message attached. Any ideas?
When I try to start up TProfiler I get a message box that simply says "Doesn't Exist". After that I can click on the TProfiler icon all day long but nothing happens. Wonder what doesn't exist?
V 1.10 crashes for me
I was using version 1.00 with no problems on my HTC Fuze running WM 6.5. But version 1.10 crashes on startup with this error:
TProfiler.exe
InvalidCastException
at
Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ToInteger()
at
DeviceApplication1.Form1.Form1_Load()
at
System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnLoad()
at
System.Windows.Forms.Form._SetVisibleNotify()
at
System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Visible()
at
System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
at DeviceApplication1.Module1.Main()
The app appears to draw at least a portion of it's window, and then crashes, though it goes by too quickly to see just how much of it is drawn
I really like the app. I especially like the addition of half hours in this version, if I can get it to work.

1.TRY ACT1 VIDEO PLAYER....it's free, it's light weight and it's good for light videos...well synchronized audio-video too
2.get Uber Music..it has lockscreen replacement with a widget, volume rocker control for previous/next song when the screen is off...there is headset control too and the UI is awesome (get "metro skin" and"clear widgets" skin also)
3. finally, as mentioned b4 by kormatoes, use drocap2 in froyo builds and u have an integrated screenshot app in MiniCM 7
hope i helped
if i helped you, kindly press the "THNAKS" button
I prefer MoboPlayer for videos.
Market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.clov4r.android.nil
Drocap2 for screenshots.
Market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gmail.nagamatu.drocap2
Was using this in the stock 2.1 ROM. Now I have installed MiniCM7 Pro - v6 Final (GingerBread 2.3.5) ROM and use the screenshot app that comes with it (long press power key - menu)
EDIT: I will include fixes / solutions whenever i find them for problems we face in DX
DX is an awesome device, spec and style wise. But over the few days i had used my DX i have found some rather annoying problems. This is the list. Please read and check each event and report if you also have the same problem with same apps also. And its not a problem with the app, just the DX doesnt play nice with them. Atleast thats what i think as i have used them in other devices and are problem free.
1. Viber + Poweramp: We all like viber chatting and may at the same time listen to music on Poweramp. But if you maximize and minimize the keypad in viber, there is a sound lag and a pop crack sound always. The only solution is to disable your profile to silent or vibration. Note: Stock player does not create any sound hiccups. I havent tested any other player either.
SOLUTION: PowerAmp > Settings > Audio Focus > Untick "Short Audio Focus Change"
** After un-ticking there were no sound hiccups when i repeated the scenario as explained in 1
2. Poweramp: no need for an introduction as no one i know uses the stock htc music player. Suppose you are listening to a song and your device is in standby mode (screen off) and the song changes to the next song, the volume of the next song suddenly reduces to a low level. But the volume knob is same as where you set it. The solution is to close poweramp and start that song. This doesn't happen much, but it does happen.
3. Status bar drop down: While you are browsing a site like 9gag, you may stop to read the meme. During that time the HTC browser or HTC Sense decides to drop down the status bar automatically. This happens like every 10-20 seconds. The status bar just drops down instead of staying hidden. It does go hidden again within a second, but is rather annoying. The status bar should not show up unless i touch or drag the page down.
Please share your experiences if you have similar or any other problem.

Latest Vibe ROM now support headset button play/pause/skip track on PowerAmp. I am using 1412 DEV Vibe ROM and it's working properly, but just don't beep although I have ticked beep on button press.
