Guest crafty Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 hmmmmm alarm went off this morning and the vibration wouldn't stop when i dismissed it - had to restart the phone. (using Beta 7 and notification set to ring and vibrate)
Guest drblow Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 Is anybody else having any problems with the alarms just not going off?
Guest I. C. Monsters Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 I had one of my two alarms stop going off. I deleted and recreated it and now it works fine. I suspect it might have had something to do with my girlfriend messing with my phone :roll:
Guest SystemicAnomaly Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 My alarm (C500, not using CityAlarm tho i have it installed) went off as planned this morning, but another alarm went off at the time i set it to last week as well. Is this a C500 bug or a CityAlarm one? (I have no idea)
Guest kennyg Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 My alarm (C500, not using CityAlarm tho i have it installed) went off as planned this morning, but another alarm went off at the time i set it to last week as well. Is this a C500 bug or a CityAlarm one? (I have no idea) They are completely seperate programs and use completely seperate notifications. I'm confused, did the built-in alarm go off or CityTime Alarms? Thanks, Kenny.

(using Beta 7 and notification set to ring and vibrate) I duplicated this, this morning. Something to do with it repeating multiple times for me, did it repeat for you as well? Kenny.
Guest crafty Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 Not entirely sure if it 'repeated multiple times' - i'm not exactly at my best in the morning and all i knew was that it kept vibrating and if it didn't stop the phone would end up out the window.

By 'repeated multiple times' I meant the sound played and vibrated more than one time before being dismissed, I think it is related to this. Kenny.
Guest Xetra Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 Tried the Beta 7 version The new fonts dont interfere with the menu font, but they still mess up xBar fonts Nice app Can you actually register yet? If so where and at what price? Hi all can someone tell me wich version of xbar ? regards David
Guest fozzie Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 Xbar 2.3 on my phone. Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest lukeap69 Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 hi kennyg, my alarm this morning was set to vibrate and ring. i woke up just after a minute or so and my alarm sound is still playing. however, it won't stop even if i press the left soft key (dismiss). i had to remove the battery to end it and reboot again. i hope this will be fixed. another thing, can you make it easy to scroll while selecting a city. i mean, if i want to select manila for example, i have to scroll down to how many cities first before going there. how about if i press 6 then it will automatically go to the cities starting with the letters M,N & O. it will be easier selecting cities when making multiple alarms. regards, lukeap 69
Guest poodoo Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 hey guys, any of you use those clamshell smartphones (mio 8380/8390/MPX200)? For me, the alarm don't goes off sometimes. Whenever I open the flip, the alarm then goes off. Wonder is it just my phone, or all clamshell phones, or the application's limitations. Could be a bug yet could be a hardware problem ^_^ any1 have similar problems?

It works fine with the case closed on these phones. Can you tell me what happens when you play the media player and then close the phone? I use the same APIs to play sound as it does. Kenny.
Guest SystemicAnomaly Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 They are completely seperate programs and use completely seperate notifications.

Guest sound Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 1. All software in my system were disordered and we got a strange screen, if I put some text files to "StoragewindowsFonts*.TTF". My windows system is the same situation. 2.When I install beta 5 version, MENU show "About/Register". When I install beta 7 version, MENU show "About"??
Guest removed-2 Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 I have experienced the following problems with Beta 7. I am using a C500 to which it installed first time without any problems:- 1. After using the alarm File Manager and XBar get the digit like fonts 2. I created a re-occuring alarm last night for this morning and it just didn't go off. I had tested various alarms last night to get my alarm tone that I like but the one this morning just didn't go off and when I went into the application the alarm was just highlighted in Red. Any ideas or fixes for these problem yet and problem number 2 might make my late for work. Also, it says that my trial will end in 15 days. Is there a way of getting this extended for Beta Testing? Regards Mark
Guest fozzie Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 Same happened to me this morning with the alarm, although I was using the phone at the time to check my email; the alarm just didn't sound. Like you, I checked it a couple of times last night to make sure it would go off. When I'd finished checking my email, I went to the alarm app and the alarm was red. Re. the font issue: if I run XBar and CodeWallet Pro straight after a soft reset and before CityTime Alarms, the fonts are ok. If I run CityTime Alarms first, the two apps fonts are messed up (and use the LCD font). Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest izzyK Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 I downloaded CIty Alarms 7 for the first time last night. First I have to say that this is EXACTLY what I was looking for in an alarm prog. Well done. I was testing it last night and it went off fine. But this morning it didn't go off. When I set it now, it just goes red and doesn't play anything. I've gone back in to change the alarm sound and now none of the sounds play when they are tested. They did yesterday. This is the first application I've downloaded (apart from registry tweaker) so I thought I might be going wrong, but I notice a couple of others having the same problem. On the up side, I was really tired this morning, so I got an extra half-hour in bed, can't be bad. ^_^ Thanks, Isabelle

First I have to say that this is EXACTLY what I was looking for in an alarm prog. Well done.Well, not quite exactly since it has it's failings yet. :oops: I was testing it last night and it went off fine. But this morning it didn't go off. When I set it now, it just goes red and doesn't play anything. It will always display expired alarms in red. What type of phone are you using? I've gone back in to change the alarm sound and now none of the sounds play when they are tested. They did yesterday.Do you mean the sample that plays when you are changing the sound? Can you still sample the alarm itself via the "Play Test" menu item? This is the first application I've downloaded (apart from registry tweaker) so I thought I might be going wrong, but I notice a couple of others having the same problem. Shouldn't have anything to do with that I would guess, but maybe? I will look at the tweaks it makes. On the up side, I was really tired this morning, so I got an extra half-hour in bed, can't be bad. ^_^ I hope not. Will ensure it becomes more dependable! Kenny
Guest poodoo Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 k...i started out with a soft reset on my mio 8380. I set an alarm 5 mins from the current time. Open wmp, play a song and stop. I did not kill wmp and close the flip. It didn't ring. The alarm did not work. ^_^ your theory is right.

When I set it now, it just goes red and doesn't play anything.It will always display expired alarms in red. What type of phone are you using? I have a C500 that I bought about a month ago. I know it's meant to go red, but that's all it does. It doesn't play a sound, it doesn't change the options toallow snooze, etc... I've gone back in to change the alarm sound and now none of the sounds play when they are tested. They did yesterday.Do you mean the sample that plays when you are changing the sound? Can you still sample the alarm itself via the "Play Test" menu item? I'm not sure what you mean. When I scroll through the sounds, I don't get anything playing. I didn't yesterday either. The "play test" sounds no longer play, though they did yesterday. I was trying to use a .wav file which works for my ring tone.Could that have anything to do with it? Thanks, Isabelle
Guest kennyg Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 I was trying to use a .wav file which works for my ring tone.Could that have anything to do with it? Thanks, Isabelle Can you play a wav file from the File Explorer? Or via the media player? The sound test at least comes up correct? Could you check the volume levels as well? Thanks, Kenny.

Guest izzyK Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 Kenny, I've not made myself very clear. Let me summarise: When I set an alarm yesterday, I could play the sounds from within City Time by using the menu option "play Sample" but not by switching from one to another. When I tested the alarm yesterday, it went off fine with a variety of different sounds. When I set it to go off this morning, it didn't. When I went back into editing the alarm, I could no longer hear any of the sounds, either through the menu "play sample" or by switching from one to another. When I created a test alarm, it didn't make a sound, it simply changed from black to Red. Then I switched off the phone and switched it back on again. I'm now back to exactly the same position I was in last night. I can hear the sounds again in "play sample" (but not by switching) and I can set an alarm and it works, as does snooze etc... What I don't know is whether it will work tomorrow morning??? Thanks, Isabelle
Guest removed-2 Posted October 13, 2004 Report Posted October 13, 2004 izzyK, You are experiencing exactly the same as I am. I also have C500. One thing in addition to that of your comments that I have noticed with mine is that when I set a test alarm for say 2 minutes and save it the screen goes back to the time and the alarm display is showing a count down, i,e, 20 seconds till the alarm sounds. When I set it for 7am tomorrow and save it just says alarm set for 7 and no countdown. I don't know if this is a problem as it possibly only shows a countdown when it is x amound of minutes or seconds away from sounding. Kenny, Do you have any ideas why we are experencing this problems? Can you reproduce them? Also, do you have a resolution for the xbar and file manager digit font problem? Oh and just one more thing, will this application expire as it shows in the about screen in 15 days? If so how can I get an extended version of the beta? Thanks Mark p.s. Excellent app- I do love it and waking up to the Son of the Preacher Man is great each morning.
