I know there is google but after hours of search I can't find it.
I use Alarms application from Palmary and I set an alarm for every hour between 8am till 11pm. My intention is to have for every hour another sound so I know what time it is without getting my phone out of my pocket.
I wanted sounds, preferable mp3, from a clock/tower church with 1 BOING till 12 BOINGS, so I can set for each hour another mp3 sound.
Sofar I really can't find this on google. It's a long shot, but I thought, I will ask you guys, maybe some one knows a website where I can get what I want...
Cheers,
Arnold
might be a little bit of a faff, but don't you just need to create 15 separate daily alarms.. one for 0800, one for 0900... etc etc.. and give each one it's own sound?

that would do it. i am not aware of an app that does this, so its back to good old manual alarm setting
Yes, of course I need to set 15 different alarms, each repeated daily, but I need the clock sounds for each hour, that is what I am looking for actually...

I am looking for a simple app to automatically schedule my phone to be silent (no notification, no vibration) except for phone calls during the night, with different schedules for weekdays and weekends.
What is my best option?
Thanks
See if there's a version of "Sound Schedule" for Froyo. On 2.1, it does pretty much what you ask for $3.
Actually I just installed and set up timeriffic. Seems to do all I need, I'll test in the next few days. And it's free.
Yep ^^ i was going to suggest timmerific! Locale is another good alternative
I use the free version of Audioguru. Timeriffic's user interface was too confusing for me.
I was going to suggest Tasker. It can do that and a whole ton more.
I also vote for Tasker
I'm going to check out timmerific myself. I'm a Tasker lover, but my wife has zero use for Tasker but her freaking SMS and Email notifications drive me nuts all night, especially when she puts the the phone on the headboard.. blleep bleep bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
In case anyone else has trouble finding it (from the spelling ) here's the appbrain link:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/timeriffic/com.alfray.timeriffic
I have my custom battery profile to turn off data after 15-30 mins and that does the trick at night without having any apps. Might want to look into that.
I use an app called Profile. I have a weekly schedule to adjust volume, bluetooth, wifi, notifications, etc based on time. Has worked flawlessly for almost a year, with plenty of updates & added features.

won't let me post a link, because I haven't posted enough. Sorry.

Another vote for Tasker. Although I'm not sure I'd call it "simple".

Thanks to everyone for the vote of confidence re: Timeriffic.
We love hearing your feedback. For the poster who thought it was a bit confusing, as we look to make it better your thoughts are encouraged. We realize it can always be better, though in most cases it runs silently with no need for an interface other than occasional adjustment to a profile. Looking forward to hearing from everyone.
And thank you for using and sharing our little app.
As I said in another thread, I get a lot of use out of "Good Night!". You can set it to receive phone calls only and even narrow it down to who can call in. Set it to happen during certain hours and certain days of the week.
Phone Schedule
I wasn't satisfied with available apps, so i decided to write my own app that would do all the volume/wifi switching and other stuff automatically according to my own schedule. Several weeks ago i uploaded "Phone Schedule" to google play. It's free and free of ads as well.
Another Scenario
OK, I would love to find a way to turn off all notifications, with the exception of one app. My wife has a weather app installed and wants to use the weather alerts for that app at night but we don't want any other notifications coming across. Is there an easy way, or app, that will do that? I've not been very successful at figuring this stuff out in Tasker. Tasker looks extremely useful but the couple of minutes I get per day to look at it, I just can't get what I want to work.
Thanks
+1 for Tasker
I have mine set on silent at night, but I've also got a list of "VIP" numbers set up that it will allow through.
That's fine, but I'm not talking about cell numbers. That's a different ballgame all together, IMHO.

I think you may be confused. I was replying to OP question.
On my previous phone which was a Samsung Omnia i8000, for the inbuilt Alarm Clock there was a wake up function. This would allow the user to set the alarm to what ever time to set it off (say 7am), switch the phone right off, and when say 7am came the phone would automatically turn itself ON and the Alarm would go off.
But I would like to know if the Galaxy SII has or can do this. I can seem to find this option in the Alarm clock.
Try it

Btw whats XDA Premum ?
I haven't seen anything like this in the stock alarm app, although i'm not sure about any other apps
you need NoMoarPowah from Chainfire
Hehe. Try to set alarm and turn off your phone.

My Samsung i8000 Windows Mobile phone definately did have it.
Oh well I will experiment on my Galaxy SII and see what happens.
Thanks
If you turn the phone off nothing will happen. The phone won't turn on.
Just enable flight mode before you go to sleep and keep the phone on. You can also do this automatically with tasker or probably a ton of other apps on the market.

It would be a shame if it does not work.
I recall my good old Nokias used to wake me up even if the battery ran out and they powered down.... guess there is no such reliability with current smartphones.

If you're asking if it will power up to activate the alarm, it won't, it sucks, I know. If you're referring to the Chainfire app, I have not used that...yet.
I need as many alarms as I can have. In lieu of this I turn off all my phones battery using functions and have SetCPU controlling speed and scaling when the screen is off. Doing this I only lose 2-3% battery during the night.
another alarm related question
as stated in the title i have another question:
do you also have the "problem" that the alarm only rings for a minute and then stops? i mean i have smart alarm activated, which rings for the selected time. but then the alarm itself only lasts for one minute...
No offence, but why not buy a decent alarm clock?
Then you don't have to worry

yeah it's definitely a pity it cant do that alright i posted the exact same question in the HD2 forums last year,i can set my Samsung Tocco's alarm when the phone is off and it will come on at whatever time i set it whereas i have to leave my GS2 on flight mode if i want to use the alarm.
@albinomi lol. When i read your post I thought for a moment "did i write this?" My previous phone was a samsung i8000 windows mobile phone. i also wrote the same question when i changed it with sgs2 . It sucks i know! The answer to your question is : no it does not ring the alarm when the phone is off. You know what else i miss? The sound quality of i8000 when listening to music.The Sgs2's sound sucks compared to it.
Oh, and I also miss the slowmotion recording(it was not the best but at least i had slowmotion recording)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Actually to be honest the sq of the Galaxy S2 is meant to be very good intact brilliant if u use the correct application for it and I think it's better than the i8000 IMHO. IT also uses a Yamaha sound Catherine retry card.
You will need to go to heaf-fi.org to find out more

Apparently there was a rumour that a chinese firmware had a power-on wake function. Dunno why they haven't added it to the european/NA firmwares. It's probably like the google talk with video. =/
Alarm waking up the phone
Yes, the powering on alarm does exist.
It is a feature of the chinese roms. You set it power off the phone and....1 min before it is supposed to ring...the phone boots up and the alarms goes off.
Simple. Just like in a Nokia phone.
I have tried to port the app from the chines rom and I even opened a thread here fro people to test the app. It was almost 2 months ago. No one tried it.
For me I couldn't make it to work, the chinese Rom has a different framework and the apk is odexed according to that framework.
I could do almost anything in Silverlight/etc but android isn't on my strong side.
I asked some recognized developers here, most of them flipped me and the rest never responded, opened threads on Android development forum.... no one seems to want a feature like that.
Anyway, PM me if someone wants to take a look at the work I've done then.
I did gave up long time ago.
Here's the thread I opened:

I have this problem too, is there a way to have the songs keep playing or loop?
Simply put, here's what I would like:
Have a widget somewhere on my screen. Whenever I wake up and start my day, I click it. It starts the following sequence:
Pops up a notification/alert to eat a specific thing
timer for X minutes
another notification to eat specific thing
timer for x minutes
another notification
etc etc I think you get the picture. Basically I want to be able to program any number of countdown timers in consecutive order with each timer starting when the last reaches zero.
These are not time of day based actions necessarily, but rather time elapsed from whenever it is I got up based, hence the manual initiation of the sequence by way of a button/widget. If I got up at 6am every single day then I would just set alarms for say every 3 hours all day every day, but my schedule is not that consistent.
I'm sure there is an app that does this or a way to automate it, but I cant figure it out.
any thoughts? thanks
I think this is a decent idea if your eating pills. If your talking food, not so much. Wish i did know of an app for this.

Its both, kinda to help me settle into a routine of when to eat and when to take supplements (semi controlled diet for lifting).
Another use would obviously be for people remembering to take meds

i am rooted using miui latest version
it seems NoLeD does not work, my favorite app
i need an alternative or clarification if it will be supported in future miui builds (cant post in dev thread yet XD )
another question relating to miui
every since i used miui my gps navigation does not lock on, ive tried clearing cache, and using gps status toolbar but nothing seems to work
thanks!! also if there is no alternative to NoLeD does any one here have something they do to show they have texts they havent read? its a great feature but its not 100% mandatory that i have it
..maybe something that vibrates my phone every 30 seconds until i turn it off?
You are probably better off asking in the MIUI forums unless you are using the version of MIUI still available in the dev forum. There is no support available for Galnet MIUI on xda.

I'm liking 'easy reminder' almost as much as I liked bln. I set it to a quieter ringtone to go off every 15min if there's an unread message or a missed call I haven't checked.
Has made my paranoia of checking my phone every few minutes from having a 'phantom vibrate' and wondering if I just missed a call or message.

thanks, ok i will check out those 2 apps
i like the default sms though how it wakes the screen
does rooting or using my rom increase my signal? i dont know what i did but when im at home i always had horrid signal, so bad i could not even check facebook or browse google
but right now i can check facebook and even download apps on app store, i think i went from -120 db to -100 db, im just not sure why but if its because i rooted, well i wish i knew i could do that from the start lol
also the gps thing fixed itself, i think it was due to my location (was at work but outside the building ) i had good reception but when i tried it further down the street it locked on immediately

This might be accomplished using Tasker. I'm not really sure, I haven't used that app much...

I haven't use them in awhile but there are call filter apps that will allow you to block calls and whitelist certain contacts at scheduled times. Check out the market.
Before I flashed a new rom what I used was AutomateIt and Selective Silence. AutomateIt to silence my phone between certain hours at night when I sleep. Selective Silence to whitelist certain numbers (family and certain friends) so that when they called my phone will still ring even in silent mode. However, now that I'm on ICS, Selective Silence no longer seems to work.
folks thanx for taking the time.
none of the above does it for me.
i really looking for an app that filters calls on scheduled hours.
u guys may know CoolLoserTech from youtube. i had seen the guy demoing such an app. but he has almost a hundred vids with hundreds of reviews.
i'm writing to him too, but the guy gets a 1000 questions every week, i dont think he'll have time.
anyways, if anybody comes across such an app, plz leave a note
Try Ghost Phone. it isn't a real call blocker...it just "hides" sms or call of a chosen number. Give it a try
i dont thinnk that any of the free android market apps can do this, but check out ipmart-forum.com android section and there you will find plenty of apps designed for privacy/security/organisers/ect.. im using it for a long time without any problems...
trial and error my friend ;]]
hope it helps...
thanx a lot guys.
I shall surely give them a try
Tasker can certainly do this, but it's not a simple one click operation. Check out their recipe pages - you can script nearly anything with Tasker and some of its addons.
