alarm volume - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello,
did anyone figure out, how to adjust the volume of the original alarm clock?
It is terrible to get woken up by such a high volume... I can't figure out how to adjust it. There is no menu in the alam clock app as on the default android app, pressing the volume buttons inside the alarm clock only adjust ring volume... no way to set it in settings, notification volume also doesn't affect the alarm volume level.
Any clues?
best,
sunnnny

try with AudioManager. You can find it in the market

I replaced my original alarm clock with "Alarm Klock" - much more customisable and can set the volume to a percentage of the notification volume as well as fading it up. You can also alter your snooze length - which is perfect as I like mine at 7 mins!

AudioManager adjusts the alarm volume of android - but the SE alarm clock ignored it
So - no luck. Apparently I really have to use an alternative alarm clock.
Will try "Alarm Klock" next, thanks!

alarm clock problem

Problem: i set my alarm clock and phone only vibrate. I have chect everiting i know. Please help?
Get the free app 'Volume Control' from market and check the bottom slider 'Alarm Volume'. That might help
or just when your inside the current alarm, press "alarm sound" and once inside press the volume buttons on the side of your hero to adjust the alarm volume.

Txn, problem solved.

[REQUEST]Alarm app that repeats alarm until snooze or dismiss button is pressed.

Stock alarm only plays alarm once, and thats it. So if I'm a deep sleeper, then im obviously not gonna hear it.
Anyone know any alarm apps that play the alarm ringtone over and over and over again UNTIL you dismiss or snooze it?

Are you sure about that?
It does allow snooze, may be you switched it off while asleep and forgot it, happen to me a few times.
Yeah, it only plays once and thats it. snooze and dismiss button remain there, but no more ringing after the first ring..
i use Alarm Klock and find it works very well. you can choose the alarm tone, set many alarms and snooze time is variable. It also has a slider function for turning the alarm off, so it cant be done while half asleep ;-)
Alarm klock works perfectly the way I needed it, thanks a lot for ur contribution

"Sanfter Wecker" is a very useful Alarm Clock. The best thing about is that you can adjust the alarm volume because the standard alarm is way too loud.
You can test it before you buy it. There is a test version available on the market.
Try Math alarm clock (com.av.mac.apk).
The stock alarm is very weak. What is the point of the snooze when it rings once? and they have a time setting for the snooze which I find is pointless. I set it at five minutes but nothing happens.
I am using Alarm Clock Xtreme, which has lots of settings perfect for me.

Alarm clock extreme is the best alarm. Very customizable.

Alarm volume too low...

If I use the stock alarm it's ok, but if I use alarm clock plus (which I prefer and can use voice search commands to set the alarm) the alarm volume is too low.
Anyone else?
Is there a fix?
Can someone recommend an alarm app that can actually wake me up and can be set with voice commands?

[Q] HTC DNA w/ Viper ROM and Alarms

Potentially stupid question here.
First off, I think I didn't install the HTC clock. I don't have the flip clock I'm used to. I am wondering if I can install it w/o having to wipe and start over.
Secondly. Without the Clock app, there is no Alarm. I installed Alarm Clock Free by iHandySoft Inc. This is what I was using on my old DNA using the Viper 1.5 ROM. Previously the Alarm would override the phone when it was on Silent and Vibrate so I would wake up. Now it does not. The settings are different than before. I clicked the volume, and went into Settings and set it to NOT use the Ringtone volume for Notifications and Alarms, and set the Alarm volume all the way up. It still didn't work.
The Alarm Clock Free app does not have any volume settings either.
Ideas?
Thanks

If you have the rom.zip still, just find these and push them to their respective locations
Code:
/system/priv-app/WorldClock.apk
/system/app/HtcClockWidget.apk

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!
