Alarm Clock - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I used to be able to dismiss my alarm clock by sliding down the bar, just like unlocking my phone. Yet recently I noticed that I only get a two button thing "snooze" and "dismiss" when my alarm goes off rather than the slider. How can I change it to the slider? I have also recently gotten Lockbot Free. I tried disabling it (not uninstall) but it did not work. Any ideas?
Thx.

[Q] Customizable Clock Application?

I just got a Standard Dock for my Atrix so I can use it as a clock. I'm using the stock Android clock app (GingerBlur) and it works well enough, but it's a bit plain with just the time, weather summary, and icons across the bottom. Some widgets would be nice. I would use the Motorola clock screen, but I don't have access to the alarm settings or anything from it.
So, are there any customizable Clock screen apps out there? I'm basically looking for a Widgetlocker for the Clock screen.
On another note, is there any way to turn off the lights on the capacitive buttons when the phone is docked?
Gentle Alarm has a customizable "night mode" setting that will turn your Atrix into a digital alarm clock. It can move the images around (slightly enough that you cant tell its moving), so you wont get burn in.

alarm clock slide

hi guys,
i'm slowly getting used to my galaxy s2. But one of the important features i need is an alarm clock. I find it difficult to get up in the morning, so if an alarm clock simply has a snooze button, that when touched turns off, then that is no good for me.
I'm looking for an alarm app, which has a snooze button that only turns off when i slide it or something like that.
Can anyone please recommend any?
The stock built-in alarm clock has a slide to snooze option. When setting the alarm, be sure to check the snooze option.

No alarm sound

Is anyone having any issues with third party clock and alarm apps? I set my alarm and it does not ring at all despite having all sound and notifications settings correct. The default clock and alarm app work fine but I would really like to wake up to a song/music I choose.
Any possible fix/solutions?

I just got an p9000 and have the same problem .. I´ve tried to add the app (tried a few, used to run Gentle Alarm) to the white list, but it makes no difference ...
I even tried to use the Gentle Alarm "night display" to keep the display on, but still no alarm ...
(would´nt be a problem, unless all the stock alarm sounds are so hideous)
Any ideas?
edit: clicked on the "lamp" button in Gentle Alarm, that says "keep display on", and the night display, that worked! Kind of annoying to have the screen on through the night, but I did wake up to my favorite song!

Protect notification from being cleared?

There were a slew of notifications on my phone earlier, and I just hit the "clear" button at the bottom to make them all go away. Turns out one of them was for an upcoming alarm I had set and didn't notice, and apparently clearing the notification dismissed the alarm so it never went off. (I'm running the standard google "clock" app since I'm used to it, not the samsung clock app).
Any way to prevent an app notification from being cleared? Any way to remove the "clear" button from the notifications? Any better clock app that doesn't have this problem and also functions correctly with snooze mode?

Did alarm icon just come back?

When pie came out, they cleaned up "unwanted" icons over on the right side and the little clock that meant an alarm was active went away. I just got a Samsung update yesterday, and the alarm icon is back for me. Did this happen for everyone?
I hated it disappearing because the google alarm app used to crash all the time and I could notice when the clock went away that I needed to restart it.
Same. I see the alarm clock icon, but I see it for a long time, don't remember. I also use Nice Lock so I may enable it from there.
