in some ROM's there is an option under "more" in clock & alarms that allows you to enable the alarm sounding when on silent or vibrate. does anyone know of a CAB that you can install that will add this feature without downloading the whole ROM'?
I also want this
Has anyone found a way to do this? I really would like a cab that would add this tab to allow my alarm to come on on vibrate.

Hi all,
I had a problem last night where i was testing out the alarm feature. It went off and a small dialogue box popped up and the left button stated 'dismiss', i clicked somewhere other than those areas and then the alarm bell icon went away and the alarm had entered snooze mode - it kept going off every minute or something and there was no way to turn it off.
can anyone shed some light on this if the icon disappears?
also how can i change the alarm tone? going into the sounds and notifications option i get:
''Enable sounds for:
- Events
- Programs:
--Notifications (alarms, reminders)
- Screen taps
- Hardware buttons''
on the second tab called notifications
theres options for ''Event'' allowing to choose an event to assign a sound for it. Theres no Even called alarm or notification but there is one for Reminders. I changed the reminders tone but still that didnt change the alarm tone that went off.
seems the alarm hasnt had much focus during implementation.
thanks,

Change the alarm tone directly on the Clock & Alarms screen. Just tap the little yellow bell thing.
perfect thanks! i didnt know the wee bells were selectable for more features.
anyone else know the solution to the other query?

the exact same thing happened to me too. feels like another bug.
i have the diamond but each time i would like to set an alarm i get a message telling me the alarm will not sound if the phone is set on silent, hence i am
just wondering if there are any alarm clocks for the touch diamond which will ring when set, even if the phone is on silent mode.
ideas anyone?
in silent mode the device can't play any sounds
the program you would need would have to change
the registry to force the device out of silent mode
to be able to make any souds
is this registry edit possible? i basically want it for use as an alarm clock in the mornings but i dont want to leave the phone able to ring if i were to get a call/txt while i sleep.
flight-mode accomplish that too without any 3th party software
This app should do waht you require...
Even the basic quick alarm with this application provides an audible alert when the phone is set to silent.
Check out G-Alarm
With the more complexed alarms with this app, one can set even the max volume of the alarm - so is independent to the WM volume control.
Hope this helps?
You don't need to do all that, just check the "sound alarms even if device is set to silent" box in the clocks/alarms menu. I put mine on silent every night when I go to sleep and the alarm wakes me up every morning, it goes off at the same volume that you last had the system volume set to before you switched it to silent.
cheers for the help people.
I just recently bought a viva. I used my old phone as my alarm clock. This one is a bit more stubborn. I cannot find anywhere to be able to change the sound on the alarm. It only makes a short sound that goes of twice and then quits. Does anyone know how to customize the alarm setting on the phone? Using a daily reminder as my alarm is hassle. THANKS!

Go to Settingd/Clock&Alarm; touch on the "small bell" icon, and some options for customizing the alarm setting will display.
You can use G alarm program
Hi,
how do I change the default alarm ringtone in android?
i searched all over and came up empty
Thx for the help
Go into the alarm clock app, open up the alarm you want to edit, and there's an option for Ringtone right there.
I know that.
but I want to chage the default ringtone so I wont have to change maually for echo alarm
Don't believe there's a way to change the default.
ok, there is no way to change from the application itself but...
you can set in the build.prop the value for it
ro.config.alarm_sound=<YOUR_ALARM_SOUND>.mp3
i haven't tested it yet but that should work w/o problems (as long as you point it to the right mp3, and remember unix is CasE sEnIitiVe system)
also, if you at it, here some extra settings for ringtones:
ro.config.ringtone=Magic_Moments.mp3
ro.config.notification_sound=Friendly.mp3
ro.config.alarm_sound=Reckoining_Song.mp3
ro.config.cal_notification=Friendly.mp3
ro.config.msg_notification=Friendly.mp3
what is "cal_notification"?

thx
how do I make a ringtone into an alarm? Do I need a file manager?
Thanks
UPDATE: Dosey twat...three different ways to change alarm and I don't notice the most blatant way...on the alarm itself it gives you the option to select from ringtone! Can now use my music tunes I edited using ringdroid...very nice app
