is there any other alarm program to replace the current alarm?
it is quite annoying to set the day since i cant remember what day it is n it doesn't show the day on the main screen. i have to go in calender, n then exit out to clock, alarm
i like the auto alarm on certain day, but sometimes i just need a once off alarm without setting the day
cheers
By all means G-Alarm! THere is also the free Klaxon, but G-Alarm is far better (and it is quite cheap anyway)...
Check it out: http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=galarm/about
G-alarm is no longer for free...but Klaxon is and it also integrates with TF3D..
I didn't say G-Alarm s for free... I said it's cheap, as it costs just around 5 euros! And it integrates into TF3D as well...

+1 : tryied Klaxon, didn't wake S2U2... Bought G-Alarm : it's excellent. Reliable, working great with TF3D, a lot of possibilities, G-sensor compatible and all this for 5€ !
hmm, not to be stingy... but i prefer free, lol
will try Klaxon then =)

Really annoying bug from Microsoft Calendar
When you select option to display upcoming appointments and also checked to display all day events, it will not display the all day events !
http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsMobile/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2045397&SiteID=65
Anyone know which good and small application to replace this Calendar plugin?
PocketBreeze is nice, but it is too complicated just for showing several events in advance.
Calendar+ is nice and freeware, but I dont know if it is running fine on WM6 (there was a report said it wont run on WM6).
IMHO, PocketBreeze and SPB Diary (I think that's the name), is the best plugin for calendar events. While they can be a bit complicated to set up (so does your PPC compared to a cheap model of Nokia), it can work pretty much to the way you want it to. E.g., I'm using PBreeze, I can have the top tab row remove, just showing the schedule, for 7 days. Everything is in 1 place, colour coded. Yes, you REALLY need to dig in to make it works for you.
Anyway, you can perhaps try the freeware, TodayAgenda. Not sure if it works on WM6, but it is *like* a much lighter version of Pocket Breeze, with easy settings.

Or you might wanna fidle with the regisrty a bit.... Numerous WM5 hacks work perfectly on a WM6 device... Check out the wiki's
I recommend Calendar+, it is an excellent replacement for the normal
Calendar plugin, highly customizable and looks great. Best of all,
it's free.

Try it and see! Works fine on my TyTN II
Thanks guys, I will give it (calplus) a go later today.
One bug down, still another one :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330224
Although the Calendar+ is working fine, it has small annoying bug
In the Today screen, I only have 3 items:
- HTC Home
- Calendar+
- TomTom 6
After soft-reset, the TomTom 6 is gone from the Today screen!
However, the setting is still there in the Today setting.
I must uncheck then check again to make the TomTom 6 appear.
Well, I think, I will move the TomTom 6 to the program launcher tab.
Just use TodayAgenda, it's free and it works like a charm....i use the 1.0 Beta with no problems what so ever....
I am now considering to use TodayAgenda, but the display looks complicated (cluttered)
With Calendar+ , I can resize the text as small as possible and display each appointment as compact as possible (single line). So, it is very clean without much of icons.
Hello
Which alarm program do you use?
SPB Time is unable to this job...
Geko
I'm not on kaiser/tilt yet but I've been using this alarm app for a few years and I am very happy with it.

The standard WM stuff... (hit the HTC clock to get there)
To me it has more than enough configurable options (don't forget you can click the bell-icon too for setting various sound options)
The best http://www.burroak.on.ca/pta.html
Yeah,
I use standard alarm from WinMo and it is enough to wake me everyday at 7 oclock
What do you want to configure? And why Spb Time cant handle it? It must be something fancy I guess.
PocketAlarm maybe?
After doing a lot of research and trying and testing various alarm programs I have found Choronos time clock to be the best though it is not free.

MP3 on Standard WM 6 Alarm
Does anyone know how to set an MP3 for the alarm on Windows Mobile 6? This is something that is really bugging me and I don't want to install a 3rd party app on just for this one function...
Convert the mp3 to WMA.. I think it supports WMA
Tough call
i may have toruble with that as i use linux to encode the files, so no support for wma. But it canb play MP3's and use MP3's for ringtones, so i don't get why it needs a wma for the alarm...
I love enAlarm, with WMA/MP3 support, great soft...
Hi everybody,
since one week, I'm the proud owner of a the great HTC Touch Pro.
In the meanwhile I tried nearly every day new software, new themes, new wallpapers and so on, to customize the HTC TP according to my needs.
After I tried various user-interfaces, I came always back to the Touch Flo 3D interface... it's the best for me (according to usability and design), even if there are 2 issues that are still frustrating since I were not able to solve them or find a proper workaround:
1. The home-screen shows only the next appointment and is not customizable to show more than 1 appointment at the same time - even if I scroll down (the clock is getting smaller), there's only 1 appointment shown.
This behaviour is not very satisfying - especially since I'm using my phone mostly for the business.
2. The is my biggest problem: I have a tool called "profiles" - with this tool, you can manage and create different profiles and you can also create a schedule that can switch profiles automatically (I was using this tool already on my old device with windows mobile 5 and it worked great). Especially the schedule-functionallity was very great and I'm looking for a solution that is also working under Touch Flo 3D.
As far as I noticed, profiles is not working with touch flo 3D - the scheduled tasks are not applying and the activation of a profile within the program is not working - I think this tool is only working if you install the plugin on the home screen (of the windows mobile interface).
Since I have no "home screen" in Touch Flo 3D, the tool is not usable for me.
Does anyone here have a comparable profile-tool which works under Touch Flo 3D (with the scheduling option)?
Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english...
Hey!
As for profile switcher.
I have spent whole day searching i have try almost every single of them most are not free and they are as today plug-in so it sux because if you use TF3D you can't use anyother plugin unless you install Second today. So angry as hell i have pointless shuffle through XDA and...
MIRACLE
i found G-Profile! GREAT FREEWARE!
it can switch profiles according to many rules such as time, schedule, appointment etc. etc. and it have plenty of options.
i also found Phoneweaver but eventually because it's not free i didn't test it ( Had enough of payed software after PhoneAlarm and SPB Phone suite which are only today's plugins... )
WOW !!!!
G-Profile works fantastic!!!
Thank you very much!!!
Now, I just have to find out if there is any possibility to execute the profile-changer from the TF3D Home-Screen (without using one of the soft-keys for that)... that would be the best solution for me!... for example: If I touch on the clock, the profile-changer opens... or something comparable...
I try to find out if there is any possibility and will let you know if somebody is also interested...
I doubt it. Only soft/hard key remaping or program launcher tab.
ageye can do no wrong! Everything made by ageye is awesome. Try out g-light as well to tweak your backlight. I just tried this last night, and it is pretty cool. g-alarm is also a must have.

You could try SSMaPa http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
a manila patcher with which you can reassign other programs to manila programs - also to the clock on the home screen.
I use it for iContact and it works great
Yup ageye soft is great.
G-Profile is great!
Only downside for me: it really, really drains my battery...

That`s absolutely true!
My HTCTP never survived the whole night until the next morning!
Maybe you should also try to reduce the polling intervall that should reduce the battery consumption...
Now, I have only the QuickSwitch enabled and implemented it directly "behind" the clock on Manila 3D (with SSMaPa - see link above) - that means: When I click on the clock an the startpage, the quickswitch window opens and I can directly select my profile!
G-Profile + SSMaPa = The unbeatable solution for windows mobile !
One of the only programs I miss is a descent alarm program. I tried g-alarm which is pretty good but lacks a nice intergration in TF3D2 and you need to update it constantly which is anoying.
So any suggestions?
agrreee
i agree
i liked the old alarm system the way it is on 6.1
it was better
i havent found any alarm programs either
g-alarm is about the best you are going to find, it's about the only one that will even update the TF3d or tf3d2 (or even the today page) screens....
is there any program at all that integrates with tf3d -so that pressing the tome will open the alarm aaplication?
Can anyone recommend a stable rom they use every morning as an alarm clock (they've used for more than a week).
Preferable windows 6.5 and manilla 2.1 (because all 2.5+ seem to be too slow for my taste in text messaging).
Tried quite a few already, using Miri v32 which never crash and always wakes me up in the morning. But that really has problems with playback of music from my SD card unlike a lot of other roms.
The rom really doesn't have to be at the top of benchmarks.
Had high hopes for Topix, but that seemed to go into this deep sleep after being standby for some hours, so alarms and sms's etc would first appear when turning on screen (version was back in early december).
Some might say you should just by an alarm clock but I travel a lot and used phones as alarm clock the last 5 years which is quite convinient. I just don't want to miss my morning flight because rom has some experimental graphics-drivers etc. and then locks up or stalls during night
The Roms from Xanny are great and stable as hell! I use mine since 2 or 3 month and it never crashed.
For the alarm, I would recommend to use a small app called G-Alarm. I use it every morning and I never missed my time ;-)
confirm for xanny and actually i'm using axlor v7(it's in italian, but you could change) no bugs, fast, a lot of memory, and the alarm is ok

I totally agree, an easy and convenient alarm app.
I use it in combination with the Topix rom and it has never failed me (i've been using the app with a lot of different roms in the last year!)
Plenty of stable roms out there if you search and try including Xanny, NRG, Miri, PhamQuang etc etc
Also plenty of apps available including G-Alarm. Again use the search option in apps thread and then try them out. Digital Outcast even created a cab for snooze options which you can find in this thread (wonderful what you can find if you search )
