Alarm sounds? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Where would I push additional alarm sounds in the /system folder? The alarm sounds that come with Superclean do not wake me up at all.

You can adjust the alarm volume by using the volume rocker while on alarm ringtone selection, and you can add alarm sounds from TW music player. It has "set as" option for alarm
For me, it force closes when I select set-as, but it successfully adds alarm ringtone.

Or manually, just create media/audio/alarms in sdcard and put your sound files in alarms folder.
Samething for notifications and ringtones; just create a folder under those name and drop mp3 files and you're all set

Get Ringdroid, use Amazon MP3 to download "Early in the Morning" by the Gap Band, use Ringdroid to clip a sample, and you'll never need another alarm sound again ;-)
Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...

Much easier just to download Zedge from the market and select the sounds you want to use. When you set an alarm, Zedge ring tones are automatically in your selection list.
As a suggestion, I have 3 alarms set 5 minutes apart. The first is a soft alarm "songbirds", then a regular alarm, then a loud screaming alarm in case I slept through the others.

[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

Alarms 1.1
"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.
+1
Alarm clock extreme is the best alarm. Very customizable.

[Q] How to use your own ringtones in Xperia X10?

I am fed up with stock x10 ringtones. Is there any way to use my own ring/alarm tones? Thanks
Of course, I use kiss ringtones from the market, a lot of beautiful tones you can download and directly set as ringtone or assign to a contact. Also you can download zedge, which is basically the same....
News ringtone made an app called ringtone player which you also can choose from your own music, don't know how it works, didn't try it as I am very happy with kiss ringtones

If you wont to use your own mp3s as a ring tone just download astro file manager. Find your music folder open it choose a song long press it you will get a pop called file opions choose music option then set as ring tone
Or just open the music file in mediascape then press the menu( left most hard key) button and select use as ringtone.

Create a folder on your sd card called audio. Create four new folders within that labelled...
alarms
music
notifications
ringtones
...any tones you put in the three tone folders will show up in the appropriate choice window, so any tones in alarms will show up when wanting to change the alarm tone, and so on.
Will test that too, didn't know, thanks for the advice. Cheers

I use an apparently called Ringo lite, put your mp3's in a folder called ringtones on ya sd card, you can then add them as ringtones or message tones, it even lets you assign different ringtones/message tones for each of your contacts

[Q] Can you set default settings for alarm clock?

I'm just wondering if there is a way to set a default volume and sound for the stock alarm clock, so when I set a new one those are already done? I'd be happy using it rather than ones from the market if I could do that. Had no probs setting alarms in s voice either, but it's pointless if I then have to change those two things.
I am rooted if that helps with a method?
Ok, it's me, Doofus again. Found a sering in build.prop. Will back it up and then try changing it. With regards to volume I've edited my alarm tune (Dream On, appropriate eh) with audacity sering up a huge fade in so that dude should now be fine. I'll post if the build.prop thing works.

So so far editing the build.prop isn't working. I've also transferred a copy of the music file into the system file where the default used file for alarms is, but still not working. I've rebooted between each change.
Wondering if anyone had any other ideas?

Not yet but if we do, we'll sure to let you know.
Create an alarm and give it a name. In my case I created "work". Set the ringtone and volume that you want for that alarm. Any alarms you want to use can be dropped into the ringtones folder and will be accessible to the alarm program. Save it. In svoice ask for that alarm by name, in my case "work alarm on" it will show that alarm and time, if that time is good say yes and you're rolling with the tones and volume you set. If not say "Change time to "Xam" and it will ask if you want to make the change, say yes.
A work around but it does work.
Thanks for that. I hadn't thought of asking for an alarm by name and then being able to change it's time, all via s voice.
I did get it to do what I wanted, though in a roundabout way.
Firstly, I always use a particular song and with the alarm clock app I generally use have it set as an increasing volume alarm. I only need it fairly soft so I have the volume down pretty low. To do this first part I use Audacity on my laptop and used the Fade In effect twice to create my alarm.
I then renamed the song to the same name as the song/tone that is used as the default in the stock alarm app. Then using root explorer I replaced the original tone with my renamed song. Now any time I set an alarm it is set to my default sound and volume and I am most happy.

[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

Custom alarm tones?

Am I missing something here? On my nexus 5, all I had to do was add the tones to the alarms folder on the internal SD card. I've tried that with the moto X and they don't appear in the tones list. I've even tried putting them in the ringtones and notifications folders, no dice, even after reboots.
I've even tried Zedge, and while downloaded tones show up in the ringtones list for the phone app, they're not there in the clock app.
I'm not rooted so I can't add them to the media folder under system. Any thoughts, ideas? And I did search the moto X forums for anything with the word "alarm" in it and didn't see anything.
You can use a media player like Apollo. Long press on the track you want to use as the alarm and make it a ringtone. It'll then appear in the alarm tones list in the clock app.
Just a workaround I've been using ever since my days of running 4.4.4 on my rooted Galaxy S2.
