Is there an alarm clock app that offer the feature where you can have an alarm set to activate every two weeks, monthly, etc? I have searched and searched but cannot find anything like this.
P.S. I am looking for something similar to the G-Alarm app for Windows Mobile.

Yeah, I am not looking so much for a reminder as I am an app that will let me set alarms on a specific schedule including biweekly, monthly, etc.

Does anyone have a link to a simple "set it at night / switch off in the morning" alarm clock for PPC2002?
The alarm function supplied as standard requires you to know a week in advance what days you want to set an alarm for... I'm not that well organised. :roll:
I just need an alarm I can easily set the night before, regardless of what day it is and have it wake me up in the morning.
Cheers!

search google for AlarmClock. Simple and effective freeware.
Thanks but I have been searching and googling and nearly all I come across are business related or mutiple alarms and so on...
If someone is using a simple alarm they can recommend, I can end my quest with a good night's sleep (only to be woken by the alarm the following morning)...

Hi,
I like one from http://www.burroak.on.ca/pta.html. Although it is not free, it's gently simply to use. When you check all days of week active, you can switch over alarm on and off by one button. I'm also looking for something easy to operate and, even more urgently, with small using of memory!!! I would like to take some link.

Thanks for the info!
Just had a look at Ptravelalarm and it looks good. I don't mind paying the price as it is par to a cheap travel clock...
But if anyone can do us a better deal and knows of a small freeware that would do the same job we would be greatly appreciated.
Personally, I recommend WolfClock. It's freeware, and has worked beautifully for me on my Wallaby (a T-Mobile Pocket PC).
Many of the other alarm clocks I have tried (including several purchased ones) where unreliable. IE: They would not go off if I had the charger connected, or if I did not have the clock open when the device went on standby, etc.
WolfClock has proven to be very reliable for me. It has quite a few features, so is probably more than you were looking for, but I would recommend taking a look anyway.

Yes, it may be "overcomplicated" but I like the sound of it... I am a digital artist and the ability to put my own artwork in as the background is interesting.
Many thanks for the info!
So, go easy on the n00b please...
(if this already exists, I am going to feel stupid, lol)
What I want is an easy way to set the phone so the call ring volume is up, but the notifications are all silent. Sure, I can go into my emails, and text apps and do it manually...but I was wondering if there is an app that does this in one step.
Also, going a step further, is there an app that allows you to set caller profiles? Like, say you want to silence the phone for everyone but one or two people at nite, for example, or when you are taking a nap(like us old folks do, lol)
Thanks in advance!
May have answered my own question. It looks like Tasker will do this...
Audio Manager Widget (thts the name of the free version) i believe does it, i have the pro version so not sure what all the free one does

Oh, awesome! Thanks, I will look into it...
Foxy ring in the market its similar to local
Think you will really like that
Enjoy
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Thanks DS36, I will check that out too!
I use "volume control" and its great. Allows you to set individual volumes for system, ringer, notifications, media, alarm, and in call. You can also create up to 3 custom volume profiles.
I'll look into that one too, thanks!
Hey Guys,
it maybe sounds a bit stupid, but i exactly want to know how the alarm clock works. If u create an alarm, the informations must be saved somewhere and if u activate an alarm there must be an service in the background which look if the time is right and then send an intent to an activity ? This service have to run every time the phone is on. Am i right ?
The reason why i want to know this, is because i'm writing an app which is in this point very similar to an android alarm clock. How it works:
The user enter a start and end time , in this time the app should do something, but it should not only work while the user is in the app, it should also work when the user is in another app, on the home screen or when the display is off.
I already tried it with 2 activities, a Broadcast, but it won't really work
Have you guys maybe an idea how i can reach my goal?
Hope i'm in the right section of this forum

I am by no means an expert in the subject but I would recommend taking a look at this information, as well as this documentation on Android Process Life-cycle.
it is maybe possible to use http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager.html as Service, so i can wake my app up with this and don't have to write my own ...
Hey guys,
I've found myself in the position of needing an alarm app again. I decided to fall back to Alarm Clock Xtreme. It's been working great for the past 2-3 years, and I'm familiar with it.
However, I haven't had the need for it in the past 2 months, and it's clearly been updated.
They removed, or relocated, the restore from backup function!
I can't use my backup to seamlessly start using, by my experiences, one of the best alarm apps on the market?!
Imagine that slap in the face. I've emailed AVG support, in hopes they respond to my inquiry.
In the meantime, is there another alarm app that does the whole math problems to snooze/turn off like Alarm Clock Xtreme does?
Thank you all!
Try using Timely. It has the math problem and puzzles too. Love this app and highly recommend it.
I will keep that in mind, thanks.
I'm currently trying I Can't Wake Up!
I like it's ability to randomize the actions necessary to turn off the alarm. Definitely needed for someone who cannot wake up... me.
sorry to hear about that
Hey guys, Andi from the ACX team here. Two things:
1. Sorry to hear about your problem, I hope customer support got back to you in time. We are preparing a new update that should fix many of the reported bugs and add a pretty cool new feature.
2. On a different note, we want to hear from you and understand why you chose to download an alarm from the Playstore and not use the stock one. Doesn’t matter if you use our app or another alarm clock app. To make it worth your time, there’s an Amazon voucher for those who talk to us. More details here: bit.ly/1Ufi72A - Please help us make ACX better, we really want to hear what you have to say.
I may be forced to switch.
For some reason this app has used 750Mbytes of wifi and 776 Mbytes of mobile data since begining of May.
Has anyone else had that?, Mark

from time to time, the LG G5 lost his GSM signal. I had tried different apps for giving a acoustic notification in this case.
No chance! Nothing works! Now i tried Tasker app with a script. But unfortunately, there is no notification available until screen is on!
Tasker seems to be paused if screen is off. I tried all modifications like protection against power optimization a.s.o.
Do someone know a way to trigger this circumstance successful? Which script or app or setting will be able to do that?
Suggestions are welcome!
BTW: all apps are successful working on a Honor 7 So it seems to be a problem on LG devices.

ok, tasker is gone, hello macrodroid.
After some tries, i hope, i have found a solution. Calender dates seems to work. Every hour 4 tries. 15;30;45:00 Every 15 minutes MD check the MCC value and compared it with a test string. If the result is "MCC UNKNOWN", the time was written into a log file.
Will do some more tries to validate my results. now.
If somebody has a better solution, please explain.:laugh:

The developer is a cool dude for Macrodroid. Email him and he will definitely help you. There's also a built in thread in app you could check out. Also built in templates in app aka user submitted tasks you could check out.
That app is way better then tasker and people are starting make to the switch. Better UI, less complicated, better support, etc.

Yes, yes and yes! He is a cool dude! (I am a registered user in his forum since more than 1 year.) And yes, the GUI of MD is even better than tasker is.
And the best, tasker plugins work with MD too!:good:
But "UndeadCretin" has no G5, so i can’t check my problem.
