I think the alarm doesn't rely on the gallery to read all the audio files on the sdcard, unlike when choosing a ringtone. So if you're not happy with the default alarm sounds I suggest finding the folder where they are placed and add there the files you want. I think you wil need a file explorer with root access for that.
Just put the sounds that you want to use as alarms in your sd card, under /media/audio/alarms/ it should do the trick

You'll also need a rooted phone to do that and find an app that will allow you to access system files, such as Root Explorer.

Well, you have two ways, pushing the sound files to /system/media/audio/alarms (requires root) or pushing the sound files to /sdcard/media/audio/alarms (no root required), actually you can enable usb storage and in your computer create the folder media, then create the folder audio inside it, then create alarms inside that one and push the files easily.
This method also works for ringtones (/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones) and notifications (/sdcard/media/audio/notifications)

I'm currently running CM7 Xron ROM and I'm aware that it's 200+ MB on it's own. Any ideas how I can free some space up for an instance like this?

Root explorer. Under system/app delete cmwallpapers.apk for gaining 5mb in system. I also delete file manager, email, protips,rom manager, cyanbread(as long as your using the green theme your ok).
That should give you more then 15mb right there.
Also make sure cm setting/application/install location is set to automatic, moving larger games to SD card automagically.
You can try a cache cleaner, it check music,maps and other hogs too.

Will give that a go tonight. Thanks
I'm a big fan of Miui's note app and voice recorder app, they have stunning UI's which is not available for any other app in the market.
What would be the easiest way to port these?
Putting them in system/app with correct permissions doesn't seem to be the fix here
edit: for anyone looking for some other apps from MIUI someone has ported a few, which I don't need, but may benefit others. I haven't tested them
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425553
OK, putting them in the system/app directory with the appropriate permissions should work... Unless they just aren't compatible with ICS Passion... I don't know... But try these methods:
Method 1:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1.) Download the attached .apk's and put them on your phone
2.) Open Root Explorer and hit the "Mount R/W" button. It should say "Mounted as r/w" to the right of the button
3.) Using Root Explorer to push the .apk's to system/app
4.) Make sure that the permissions look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5.) Click Ok
6.) Reboot device
7.) Test the apps
Method 2:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1.) Download the attached .apk's and put them on your phone
2.) Just try to install them as is
But just to see, you should go download those ported apps you put a link to and see if they work for you.
Tried first method, didn't work.
Will download the ported apps later on and then try them.
thanks for trying to help

After you have flashed the app from this post and have booted and opened app,
then u can add the different languages
head over here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1426975
and download the package, then simply choose your language and push via adb or simple copy and paste with any root explorer app to /system/app remember to fix permissions and then reboot

If u r rooted u can download the zip, move the apk to your system/app
And move the libs to the correct location. Just extract the zip and you will see the folders and corresponding files, just copy paste accordingly, and remember to fix the permissions ( match the permissions to like files)

I have some custom ringtones I put on the SD Card Media/Audio/Ringtone folder.
They all were showing up fine and I decided to rename them all to a simple format (Ring (1); Ring (2); etc).
Some of them are showing, but others for some reason are not showing up. Rebooted the device to see if it would refresh, but still no luck.
Any ideas how to clear this up?
Have you accidently removed their extension? If not cut those file and paste on desktop check sound optio in mobile, then restore them back in same folder

I did this as well because I got so used to the "little" notification tone. I took out the sci_fi.mp3 and renamed little.mp3 to sci_fi.mp3. Then I did a reboot. Works fine now. Just don't move the previous ringtone back/rename it, because it goes back to default.
I didn't delete sci_fi btw, just moved it one folder up from the notifications folder. It seems like the notification tones don't want to play as nice as the regular ringtones.

Does having them on the actual SDCard vs Internal Storage matter?
It seems the notifications/ringtones sometimes play and other times cut off abruptly.

For ringtones, I left then on the sdcard. The phone found them easily and without a problem.
Now with notifications, I moved into internal because I never got the phone to find them in /sdcard2. If your trying to change the notifications, they seem to be a little more stuck up than ringtones. Or HTC just didn't want us to change them too easily.

Every time I try to create an archive or zip file from a folder I get an error saying it failed because permission was denied, refused by system.
Any ideas? I have a rooted room and I have all the settings in ES File browser set correctly...

I'm assuming you have the "mount file system" checked. If you do, you may have to clear data and start over. Also, make sure it still has root access. A simple reboot may do the trick. I had an issue the other day, and a reboot cleared the trouble.

So you're trying to create a zip? You're hitting select, highlighting the files, and then trying to compress?
Sent from Galaxy Note
Umm have you tried just zipping it on your sdcard and then just moving the entire zip to /system/media?

Yes, I'm long pressing on a folder and selecting compress/encrypt.

Well it appears to happen when long pressing a folder and trying to archive the entire folder... Weird, if I multi select individual files I can then archive.

Just tried it myself without issue. At least you found a work around.
