Alarm application that triggers an un-shuffled playlist - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am looking for an alarm app that will allow my to play an ordered playlist. I have found that numerous apps including Alarm Clock Plus, Alarm Clock Extreme, the default alarm clock, as well as many others are unable to pull this off. The ones that offer to play from a playlist automatically shuffle the songs.
My wake up playlist is:
1)Edvard Grieg's "Morning Mood.
2)Radiohead – “No Surprises”
3)Flight of the Valkyries
If you are familiar with these songs then you will know that it is basically a slow build up from a serene atmosphere to onw with lots of energy. The best idea I can come up with is setting 3 different alarms, however, this is time consuming and too complex logistically (I prefer steamlined utilities).
I look forward to your suggestions.
Thanks!

[Q] alarm tune

hi there i want to use one of my mp3 tunes as my alarm in morning can anyone tell me how to add to alarm cheers. just had my first experience of reg tweaks and loving it
Have a look here, I can't test it on my phone as I am using a 23xxx build.
However, I would highly recommend G Alarm there are so many customizations for alarm tones, progressive volume level vibration and extensive alarm patterns such as weekly, Singular, workday/weekend/everyday, custom alarms and cron-like patterns. I love it, and wouldn't use anything else, well worth the €5.

Must Have Apps

I think the the Vibrant forums needs this as a sticky so moderators do your thing and ev1 else do yours i was thinking something like this for posts
Rom Manager-Helps with the install of custom Roms
Tv Guide-For the people of the world that doesn't have a guide on there TV
and so far and so on and maby like = for a short review and short how it works or how to work it its just an idea so if you like it post
Im allways looking for different.
All posts will be checked for redundancy's

i getcha...but these threads are more of a vanity thing than a reference thing. You get so many posts listing the same apps, so it flattens the concept. If people for once would actually ONLY list apps that have not already been listed, then these types of threads would actually have value.
A lot of people come to these threads initially in hopes of finding out about some apps they do not yet know about...but what happens is they open up the thread and they end up seeing multiple posts that look something like this
-Launcherpro
-handcent
-root explorer
-fruitninja
-adw.ex
-sportstap
......major apps that everyone knows about, and they just keep getting listed reptitively, so people stop paying attention to it and it dies out.
not cutting short your efforts....i started a thread like this on games, and after like 6 or 7 posts you could see that everything was pretty much listed....top apps thread are all over XDA
I dont want you to think im just trying to be a ****^^^^, so ill contribute with some not well-known apps:
-Album Art Finder
-aTakePhone: best subsitute dialer IMO
-Ayal Music Lite: mp3 search
-Droid streamer: tv shows
-Mob Decor: wallpapers
-Old Time Radio: streams classic radio shows, good to fall asleep to
-Paper football
-Vital Player: my favorite video player, tons of format support, also takes screenshots
-Swarm: great torrent client
I do see your point. And you not being a **** because that is something that I didn't think of the mutple posts of the same app so maby I could go about making a post and try to keep it updated with what other people's post in the first post keeping all the apps in one place and that way everybody can see them in one post

[Q] Vibrant Smart Alarm

Is there anyway to add custom tones/music to the smart alarm app? Or at least a way to replace the originals? Not a fan of some of the limited tunes there.
I have bionix ROM and I am rooted. I searched all over, but couldn't find an answer anywhre.
Thanks!
EDIT: Just to clarify, I know how to add custom sounds for the regular alarm, but not the smart alarm option. (for ex. I want to add a seashore sound that I found elsewhere as an option in smart alarm settings)
...
Well I'm running Trigger when I click on the smart alarm sound entry it brings up a menu in which I can select from my files what I prefer. I doubt this is unique to trigger, though. Are you sure you're clicking the correct entry?
Not sure but if not check out Gentle Alarm in the market. Its the same thing but allows you to customize the sounds.

It may be unique to your ROM. When I click on smart alarm, I only get an option to select among the 6 default tones.
@Senorkabob
Thanks for the suggestion. However, I am trying to avoid using another alarm app if possible.
If there is a way to add that option on bionix, and anyone is aware of it, then that would be great!

Desperately seeking the name of this alarm tone

Hi there!.
I do not know the name of this alarm tone I want, as I got it from one of the many ROMs I've tried.
The problem is that I saved it on the internal memory of my phone (so it can be always available when changing ROMs) but it broke down and returned formatted.
I know that this is an instrumental relaxed tone, with a sound like a forest/birds background. Very dawn style.
To give you an idea I have whistled, here:
- Unknown Tone -
[Up]
No one knows that alarm tone?
Obviously not, or you would have got a reply.

Watch face with time, weather, date?

I've been looking all around for a face for my Fit2 that had time, whether, and date. I can't seem to find one anywhere. This seems like common things people would want. Am I just missing something?
If you're looking to display current weather + date I've only seen one "All in one: Fit"
Almost the entirety of watch faces are made with Samsung Gear Designer program that doesn't allow weather data to be displayed.
Two other options for you:
- The new weather app (available from the Essentials tab of the store) has added a weather widget (the swipe right widgets like floors, water etc.)
- Many watch faces, including most of mine, have date + link to weather app (for example Active Life [12 mile] By TM)

Fitness Battery Pro has weather on the watch face but it really eats the battery.
loads of watch faces on here
Google +
hope it helps
Yeah, most of the faces that advertise weather are simply a link to the weather app. Thanks talmarsh for the tip about "All in one: Fit", that one looks nice and I really like the level of customization supported.
The recent firmware update that came out after the Fit 2 Pro includes a few new built-in faces. Two of those, "Fitness Pro 1" and "Fitness Pro 3", include the current weather.
But also there is "Weather Fit Watch". It's not free but it's very well done, showing current weather as well as forecasts. That's my pick for a weather watch face.
I've been using Fitness Pro 3 since it gives the most data and weather. too bad it doesn's display battery % until you hit 15% or less.
I wish there were more that displayed the actual temperature instead of a link
