hi guys,
i'm slowly getting used to my galaxy s2. But one of the important features i need is an alarm clock. I find it difficult to get up in the morning, so if an alarm clock simply has a snooze button, that when touched turns off, then that is no good for me.
I'm looking for an alarm app, which has a snooze button that only turns off when i slide it or something like that.
Can anyone please recommend any?
The stock built-in alarm clock has a slide to snooze option. When setting the alarm, be sure to check the snooze option.
Hi,
1. Is there a quicker way to access (see/edit/delete) alarms other than going via the Clock app?
2. Is there a way to have the next alarm shown on lock screen, in the status or notification bar or similar? The alarm icon is shown in the status bar when an alarm is set but there is no more information.
Try the alarm clock widget

Tried the alarm clock widget, but did not like it. It seemed as if one has to choose one alarm for it to show. I wanted it to show the next alarm. Maybe I did something wrong. However, I also had a question about a 4x1 Weather + Clock Widget (
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704163) and Fancy Widgets (https://play.google.com/stor/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.fancywidgets) had both weather and calendar as well as next alarm.
Hi
every morning I have a notification about the weather of the day. It comes from the standard weather app. But on this app, I cannot disable notifications.
I'm not sure but it might be coming on when the alarm sounded.
I have not enabled google now - so it's not this.
any idea on how to switch this off?
Cheers
UPDATE: It's defenitely connected to the alarm. when I switch of the alarm, I do not get the notification in the morning.

***HERE'S HOW:***
Go to settings> applications> application manager...swipe over to "all"...scroll down to "weather daemon"> UNCHECK show notifications. DONE.
Thanks. Did that. Strangely it stopped happening even before.. No clue why. But now it's defenitely off
I been unchecked that for a while now but still getting Weather of the day popup everyday.
they are back .... no clue what this is about...
does anyone use the alarm clock and does NOT have the notifications in the morning?
What I did was add the weather widget to your home screen, then launch the app (only way to run the weather app...stupid) . Now click "More" in top right. Then there are 3 toggles to turn notifications on for the edge screen, lock screen & calendar. Turn them off.
I don't have any notification settings there.. it's more like "Show weatherinfo" and then edge screen, lock screen, s planner. But these don't have an effect.
btw. this morning.. no weather notification.. it seems completely random

you still can open Weather setting from Edge screen setting, also the way you show will not work because it different setting from the op ask, he asked about the notification popup everyday, the setting your show it to show the weather ON/OFF of all the time on Edge screen, lock screen or calendar.

Funny, but I am trying to find a way to enable it again.
Does anyone know what exactly makes/triggers morning weather notifications right after alarm sets in? I liked it but it went away for some reason and I am not sure what has changed/what I've have changed in between. I still use samsungs weather widget with manual updates as I did before. Tried setting up alarm with auto refresh but still the daily weather notification won't show up after the alarm is triggered.
Solution?
Has anyone figured this out yet? I like getting the daily weather in the notification drawer but for the last two days it seems to have stopped.
This morning I had set an alarm and cancelled it before it went off, that's the only thing different about today and I don't usually set an alarm. I don't think I set one for yesterday morning but don't believe I got the update then either. No idea what is different.
Will test again tomorrow morning without an alarm set.
Very annoying that there is no obvious setting for this.
New Phone
I have a brand new S6 now and just realised that there have been no weather notifications since I got it. And I'm not using any alarms and the notification options are all selected.
How on earth do I get them back?
The weather notifications work for me if I have an alarm and location services turned on.
Is anyone having any issues with third party clock and alarm apps? I set my alarm and it does not ring at all despite having all sound and notifications settings correct. The default clock and alarm app work fine but I would really like to wake up to a song/music I choose.
Any possible fix/solutions?

I just got an p9000 and have the same problem .. I´ve tried to add the app (tried a few, used to run Gentle Alarm) to the white list, but it makes no difference ...
I even tried to use the Gentle Alarm "night display" to keep the display on, but still no alarm ...
(would´nt be a problem, unless all the stock alarm sounds are so hideous)
Any ideas?
edit: clicked on the "lamp" button in Gentle Alarm, that says "keep display on", and the night display, that worked! Kind of annoying to have the screen on through the night, but I did wake up to my favorite song!
When pie came out, they cleaned up "unwanted" icons over on the right side and the little clock that meant an alarm was active went away. I just got a Samsung update yesterday, and the alarm icon is back for me. Did this happen for everyone?
I hated it disappearing because the google alarm app used to crash all the time and I could notice when the clock went away that I needed to restart it.
Same. I see the alarm clock icon, but I see it for a long time, don't remember. I also use Nice Lock so I may enable it from there.
