Motorola Droid X :: Alarm And Timer App

Jul 23, 2010

I know that a lot of you have been having issues with this app. I thought that I'd try to make some suggestions that could or could not solve things.

- Make sure that you press the "Turn on alarm" check box at the very top of an alarm. I've missed it once before (my first time) and thought it was on because I pressed "Done" and even though it said that it was set for "6 hours and 53 minutes from now", it wasn't activated.

- Turn on "Vibrate" and have it rest on a wooden surface, like a night stand for example.

- Have "Repeat" set to the day that you want it on, even if its just for that day. This has helped some people.

- Have the "Backup alarm" on just in case.

- Have the volume turned all the way up. This definitely wakes me up every time because it can get really loud, especially when you're sleepy.

- Instead of playing one of the stock alarm ringtones, play an MP3 file. Play a song that can get loud, but I recommend to turn on "Volume" (which increases the volume gradually) so it doesn't startle you.

- Make sure that the speaker on the back isn't at risk of any muffling by fabric.

- Turn your phone over on its front to completely expose the speaker.

Go ahead and try a test alarm with all of these in mind (like set it to go off in 2 minutes) and see how it works out. I've made my mistakes by accidentally leaving it on a T-shirt (which definitely muffled the sound), forgetting to turn up the volume loud enough, and by forgetting to actually press "Turn on alarm" (as previously stated). If any of those suggestions do not work out for you, then you're on your own with a 3rd party app.

Motorola Droid X :: Countdown Timer Alarm Volume Low / Is This Normal?

Jul 30, 2010

Is the alarm on the installed countdown timer really really low on everyone else's phone? I use the same style ringer for my alarm clock and timer. The clock is fine, but the timer alarm is so low it can barely be heard at the highest setting, 7. Is this normal?

Motorola Droid : Several Alarm Clocks - If Snooze Alarm 1 - Alarm 2/3 Never Goes Off

Mar 9, 2010

I tried several alarm clocks on my droid, and they all seem to have a problem. if I set alarms for 6:30, 6:41, and 6:52 am. Each with a different sound. If i snooze alarm 1, alarm 2/3 never goes off. i thought all 3 would be seperate, but it seems only 1 can be active at a time. unless im doing something wrong. this happens on the default alarm clock and, better alarm clock.

Samsung Moment : Need An Alarm / Timer / Stopwatch Combo App

Aug 30, 2010

My wife has a Hero and I like the fact that touching the HTC Sense clock brings up the alarm, timer and stopwatch selections. Is there a similar app in the Market which I could use with my Beautiful Widgets clock? The UI in the Hero is awesome, so willing to pay for a similar app in the market.

General :: How To Set Android Timer To Vibrate Or Alarm Through Headphones

Nov 5, 2013

I'm using the timer in a quiet environment and I would either like to have one of the following

The timer to vibrate when the alarm sound is completely silent. I set the timer and turn off the screen but theres no vibration AND no sound so I don't know when the time is up.
OR
The timer to play the alarm through the headphones. No matter what, all the alarms play through the speaker.

Is there a timer app or alarm app can do these? I'm using cm 10.2 on an AT&T Galaxy S3.

Motorola Droid :: Best Countdown Timer? (Cooking And Poker Games)

Jan 6, 2010

Anyone have experience with a good countdown timer that works well with Droid? I think I downloaded the "Ultimate Stopwatch" once and it didn't work well (The alarm sound was way too soft). There are dozens of timer apps, and it seems people have various problems with all of them, aside from maybe a few pay ones. But I just want something really simple. Just for timing things like cooking stuff in the oven and poker games. Any suggestions?

Motorola Droid :: Light Sensor Or Timer Dims Screen Up And Down During Video Playback

Nov 7, 2009

I am not sure which is the culprit, but while playing back video or even at random times, the screen shifts lighter or darker seemingly at random, and one time during a video playback on the TV.com app, it went black altogether. I am not sure whether it is the timer or the ambient light sensor, but I am tempted to turn the sensor off and push the timer back a lot.

Motorola Droid X : Music Player With Lockscreen Controls That Doesn't Disable Timer

Aug 25, 2010

Tried looking around but couldn't find what i was looking for/people didn't respond to the other posts... so is it just me or is it super hard looking for a good music player...

currently I'm using cubed but i dont like it. people swear by it but im not following. its seems a bit clunky, it scrolls terribly, and i dont like the lockscreen controls.

for my question. i can deal with a music player like cubed BUT I'm looking for a music player with lockscreen controls that doesn't disable the timer/alarm notices. the lockscreen controls with cubed is $#!t. you press "unlock" even by accident and it unlocks (dont like that). and it doesn't even show you the time, so i have to completely unlock the phone and lock it again just to view the time. AND i cant see when my next alarm is going to go off. really inconvenient.

Does anyone know of a music player that has lockscreen controls that does not disable the clock/alarm notices when you wake up the phone before you unlock it?

My blackberry had the capability of being turned off but would turn back on when the alarm went off. Does the eris have this capability or is there an app out there for this.

Motorola Droid X :: 2.2 Alarm Clock

Aug 26, 2010

So I never used the alarm before (in 2.1 or 2.2) I was using the stock alarm clock in 2.2 for the first time this morning. But when the alarm went off, there was no sound, only vibration (fortunately the sound of the vibration on the table was enough to wake me up!). The first issue is that there was no ringtone sound even though the volume was on and a ringtone was set. Then next issue is that when I went to slide the slider to dismiss the alarm, it didn't do anything. The phone kept vibrating madly and the phone was fully functional. When I went to open the alarm panel again (through the app drawer, cause it was no longer a status icon), it said the alarm was off, even though the phone kept vibrating. The only way I could get the darn thing to stop vibrating was to turn the phone completely off then back on.

Motorola Droid X :: Alarm Didn't Go Off / Way To Set?

Jul 22, 2010

I first tested the alarm out and set it to go off in 2 minutes. it worked. so I set it for my morning alarm and to play an mp3. it said that it will go off in 6 hours. morning rolls by and it never goes off. i check it and its still set, but never went off. another problem that happened was my music player would not work after this incident. i would click load play list and it would take my to a blank screen. the previous song wouldn't play either. i had to reset my device to fix it.

Motorola Droid :: Alarm Clock Never Goes Off

May 26, 2010

I don't know if anyone else is having these problems with the Droid Unrooted on stock 2.1-update1 (ESE81), but my alarm clock never goes off in the morning at 6:00 AM like I need it to. I don't want to purchase a travel clock. No sounds are off, both Wifi and Cellular Networks are enabled, but it will go off occasionally. (Usually if I set it to go off in the next minute.) Could it be my task manager?

I use the alarm mainly for traveling, I have a dedicated alarm clock that I could use at home, but I would prefer not to.

Motorola Droid :: Alarm Not Turn / Shut Off

Nov 7, 2009

Had a problem with my alarm clock this morning. It went off @ one of the alarm times I have (although I could swear it wasn't checked to be on for today). But then I could not shut it off. Tried hitting nearly ever button both physical and virtual and the damned alarm wouldn't stop. I eventually just shut it off and turned it back on and that did the trick. Did I miss a step in how to turn alarm off?

Motorola Droid :: Stock Alarm Application - Never Goes Off

Nov 20, 2009

Does it make sense that my alarm doesn't ever go off? No matter what settings I try, it never goes off. It always says "you're alarm is set for 8 hours and 37 minutes from now", yet it never goes off at that time. Does anyone else have this problem? Should I download an alarm app from the marketplace and if so which one is good?

Motorola Droid :: Why Does Alarm Clock Silence Itself?

Dec 24, 2009

Does anybody know why the alarm clock turns itself off after 10 minutes? This is kind of a problem. I'm very difficult to wake up. I have to set two alarm clocks, and they usually go off for a good 15-20 minutes before my brain even recognizes the sound and wakes me up. I've always been this way.For some reason, though, I've woken up late several times while using the Droid as one of my clocks. I don't remember ever having woken up to silence the alarm or hit snooze, so I could not figure out why it wasn't going off. Today I noticed a notification in the status bar saying "Alarm silenced after 10 minutes". The alarm turns itself off after going off for 10 minutes, apparently?

Motorola Droid :: Change Default Alarm Clock?

Jan 27, 2010

I purchased the Math Alarm Clock (I'm a math major and enjoy math in the morning!) and am wondering if there is a way to make it my default alarm clock.

I use the Motorola Droid Docking Station and want to set the Math Alarm Clock as the default so when I press the Alarm Clock button on the docking screen, it brings me to the settings of the Math Alarm Clock Applicatoin.
Is there any way to do this?

Motorola : Need App That Is Close To Clock - Timer - Stopwatch?

Jul 19, 2010

I've been a long time Blackberry user. Finally decided to jump ship to a Droid Incredible. Ordered on 6/4, received on 7/1. Then the Droid X was announced. Had vzw send me a Droid X to swap out for the Incredible. I got the Droid X last Friday and still have the Inc too.

There's plenty of things about the Inc that weren't perfect. Now that I've used the Droid X I totally have to appreciate how much development HTC puts into their Sense interface and Apps. The ones like the Desk Clock/Alarm/Timer/Stopwatch are far better than what is found on the X.

I know that their beautiful apps are also the main reason that they won't have froyo out for a while for their devices.

Does anyone know of any app that is close to the Clock / Timer / Stopwatch app that HTC made for the Incredible. I don't see to be able to find any apps that are even close to as well designed. I really like how the dials can be spun to set the timer and then they spin to count down when started.

I have great hope for the Droid X and the android platform. I have no trouble paying for well designed and functional apps.
