Its reported, should be fixed tonight.

Koush: thanks, will try 2008. Its not available through apptodate yet. will check later.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Klaxon uses the first Windows Alarm for home screen integration. You can use the 2nd and 3rd ones still. Or just disabled home screen integration.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Please send me your log file. (Follow the instructions on the first post)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] laser21:
2008 works, no exiting! Thanks

Adding a default alarm sound option would be greatly appreciated!

[BUG] when using 24h it show also the seconds

Hi

First of all thank you to develop this fantastic Alarm clock

I found a small bug in the new UI.

I use the 24h clock and Klaxon display the time and the second like 22.08.06

in both form

I think it should only display the time without the seconds

see attached screenshot and logs

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Cool thanks, I know exactly what the problem is. I'll have a fix ready tonight or tomorrow. Just check your apptodate (I don't update this post for minor bugs).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Devileyezz:
SAME!

I thought it was just my phone and dismissed the app altogether. But looks like there is some hope!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Rabangus:
Exactly the same happens on Touch Pro with DCS v14 ROM.

It also closes with no warning message when I try to select a sound file from MicroSD card...

Thanks for a great app! Works really nice so far!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mc-paulo:
Hi, I love your program, but I have a minor bug:

When I enter a title for an alarm which is longer than 8 letters and the alarm goes off, the title is wraped in two lines and I don't see the the off-button.

Really a small issue.

Thank's for your great work :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] wheresmybeaver:
Great program, especially considering how unusually $hite the built in WM6.1 alarm is. The only deal breaker for me though is the fact that by clicking on the alarm or clock on the TF3d screen, it loads up Windows alarms, and thus screws around with the Klaxon settings. Maybe its just me, but I tend to accidently get into the alarms screen pretty much every day.

There's a piece of software called SSMaPa doing the rounds on this forum that can change the default app used when clicking on items such as the alarm. That particuar piece of software is in shoddy condition though so I won't go near it. But something like this could possibly be a built-in feature in Klaxon some day? Then the homescreen integration would be perfect! And I won't be accidently going into windows alarms...

Of course, thanks for all the hard work!

Great JOB . Working good on XDA diamond .
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] robtor22:
Hi,

My klaxon when activated the windows alarm active too, and I have the sound of windows alarm first, and then goes the sound of Klaxon, after this is a mix of both alarms! The klaxon must be play alone, right!

Some suggesting:

Option for the week begin in Monday. (most of ocidental euripean people prefer that)

Change directly the options without enter the alarme options, like windows alarm.

The coler between gray and white or day activated or not are too similiar.

Good job..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
GREAT application Koush!

I was reluctant to test it, since I use SPB Time and since the original Klaxon idea (1.0.0.0) wasn't something THAT great for me (I like my g-sensor, but don't want to overuse it for everything - sorry tastes differ), but now your app really looks like a complete package!

Since the topic is now 46 pages, I haven't yet read them all (so I am sorry if I repeat things), but I already have a list of proposals/ideas/bugs that came to me in the first 3' I tested this! Hope it helps you improving it.

There you are:

(important in bold)

- How today integration works? (Edits the first alarm for each next alarm? because that is how it looks like...)

- Tap and hold an existing alarm should edit it.

- Unselected days should be a color even closer to background, so that it is clear which days are not selected at first sight and even in bright light conditions and wider screen angle.

- There should be some way to see which alarm sound is already selected, not by playing it but by name.

- "Snoose" and "off" (sensor) settings could be separate per alarm (but following a default).

- PLEASE include some timer and countdown modes (a la SPB Time).

- Should use a default (system) sound if user doesn't set one!!!

- Does it override system audio settings? It should definitely do that!

- When you click snooze it should kill the klaxon screen until it rings again (why keep it on?).

- "Off" should definitely be much smaller than snooze, for the simple reason that you want off to be more difficult to press than snooze! (you need to be wake to click it!)

- Planning to include incrementing volume?

- The alarm should also have a setting to make vibration while ringing!

- BUG: Deleting your alarms doesn't disable the system alarm entry (and still shows in TF3D!)

- Hope someone finds a way to "steal" the main TF3D tap and start Klaxon instead of WM alarm applet (ask SSMaPa guy how he does this?).

Keep up the good work!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Ethania:
This program is a real hit!

Sad that its discontinued.

I would really like to see the integration work like mentioned.

Now i use advanced config to make one of the softkeys (right one) Klaxon alarm.

Also, Id like to put my name on NLS post. I totally agree!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
I've not discontinued work on Klaxon, I only discontinued work on the 1.0 UI. :rolleyes:

It's hard to maintain two UIs, too much work!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
Koush I think he meant SSMaPa - I hope you will not discontinue Klaxon!

Did you read my post above? Any comments?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gebruikershaes:
Hi can you add the function of sound incresing slowly?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Thanks for the feedback, I'll add a few of those to my todo list on the front page. I'm focusing on bug fixing right now: particularly this sound looping problem that just seems impossible to fix.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Version 2.0.0.9

Implemented About Box

Implemented the Snooze countdown on the alarm form.

On the Alarm List form, days that are not scheduled to start the alarm are now a darker color than they were before.

Fixed bug where deleting all the alarms would not remove the alarm from the TouchFlo Home Screen.

Fixed the sound looping bug once and for all! Found a not so well documented "loop" API hidden off the WindowsMediaPlayer.settings.setMode method.

Fixed bug where seconds showed up on the alarms in the list form and the alarm itself.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Rabangus:
Cheers - nice work!

I can now use this and add new alarms on my HTC Raphael.

Just a couple of issues:

- Can't select sound files from microsd card (application exits with no warning or error message)

- When home screen integration is used, if you turn the alarm off, a windows alarm is enabled for the time you turned the alarm off

Cheers

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
thanks for reading my post thoroughly - unfortunately there is no updated link in your blog (yet)

now that you solved the main bug, I hope you add some of what I mention (esp. the bold ones)

(will send donation soon)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] heretic:
Same here. When I'm trying to select a sound file from Internal Storage, Klaxon crashes.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
You guys need to send me a log file if you want me to fix this; read the first post for bug instructions. I have a Diamond, which does not have a Micro SD card... so I have no way of fixing it unless I get some sort of log file to know what's wrong.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
The download link is always the same; I don't update my blog for minor fixes.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] heretic:
Well, I have a Diamond too. Log file attached.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Jorlin:
Great update!

This one fixed almost all the issues I had :D

There are only three things that remain and one suggestion:

1.) Touch Scrolling in the file explorer is super slow (flick and scroll)... when trying to scroll through files like this it just advances about 2 or 4 files... and very slow :(

2.) When shaking the device to stop an alarm, I need to shake the Pro quite a lot to make it stop... I have no clue why. Can you make it more sensitive?

3.) When editing an alarm, can you reduce the size of the titel but increase the size of the clock to change the time? My thumb is not the smallest and I still have issues to select the time quickly and pricisely. It would be nice to make the scrolling throuch the numbers a little bit less sensitive/quick...

Suggestion: Clickin on a specific alarm in the alarm list should open it right away to edit it instead having to click on the "note" icon as well :)

Awesome application :D I love it !!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Cool, I figured out what was wrong. It's an out of memory exception that is caused by the large amount of files in your storage card directory. I'll have a fix probably sometime tomorrow.

Here my patched manila.exe for start klaxon from clock tags

First, close manila, replace the old manila.exe in the windows folder (rename the old before), and restart manila
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
can I ask how you patched manila?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
erm... not

still same thing
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] wheresmybeaver:
anybody tried this? reluctant to be a guineapig myself.. do you need to have a specific rom version first?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
This is done using SSMaPa I believe (Manila Patcher). I don't want to risk patching people's manilas in my setup, so I'll leave it up to you guys to do it yourself. :)

I would recommend downloading SSMaPa and configuring it yourself, rather than using someone else's Manila exe.

Worst comes to worst, you can always hard reset the phone if things go wrong...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] iridio:
I searched in this thread but didn't find an answer.

My problem is that I have the password screen lock active and when the alarm fire, the klaxon's window stay behind the one with the keypad to enter the password to unlock the device. Is it possible to have something like the wm6 alarm (a popup showing on top of all windows)? In that way I don't have to unlock my device to stop the alarm. Actually I flip the phone to snooze, than I stop the alarm. (just to avoid to wakeup my g/f with a long and loud alarm)

Maybe generating a fake appointment or task should do the trick (i saw a similar thing with an alarm software for the symbian device), but I don't know if is applicable because you have to change the bottom bar buttons (ignore, menu) with the klaxon's ones.

Thanks and keep up the good work :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] medfcara:
thanx for your work! Installed this evening. It seems work fine (Diamond). I've set alarm very soon tomorrow (I have to fly to another town for a work meeting). I hope there will be no bug. :-). I'll send you a donation soon. goodnight.

One-time alarm

I have a request.

Is it possible to create a one-time alarm?

When the alarm is turned off, it should also be disabled.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] :
Fixed bug where deleting all the alarms would not remove the alarm from the TouchFlo

"Fixed bug where deleting all the alarms would not remove the alarm from the TouchFlo Home Screen."

This is still an issue in the 2.0.9 release I am afraid.

Also - a feature request. Trying to find an MP3 file every time seems a bit cumbersome. It would be great if the app would just choose alarm1.wav or whatever is always in the system (or bundle with your app) so that at least it works if I don't want to bother with finding the right tune for my alarm...

/Soren
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
yes I already reported this (if he didn't miss my post) - the issue remains
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Ethania:
Hi!

This is great news. I misunderstood the discontinued text.

Really love this aplication and I also think this is one of the greatest

applications so far. Does as much for a WM as the iContact app.

Finnaly Im able to get rid of the butt ugly WM alarm.

Now the touch pro looks and works as I want it to.

Im looking farward to next version (and the next one after...)

GOOD WORK!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] giovag7:
Great app., work fine compliment, but only 2 problems still to solve for me:

1) When alarm goes on the OFF button on the screen is too much large (dangerous if i touch it for mistake). I think is better (and more safe) to have a very large SNOOZE button and a small OFF button.

2) When alarm play, if i don't ear it (ie if my sleep is very deep) i don't do any snooze action; in this case the alarm play only one time then go off definitively. This is very dangerous because i lose the possibility to awake me. Is possible to add an option "auto snoozing" (the alarm goes into sleep mode also if i don't do any action, until i press the OFF button to stop definitively).

Thank you for your attention and sorry for my english...:)

This bug will be fixed by allowing people to make their own Klaxon skins, see below:

Upcoming features:

I've noted the Home Screen bug, and will be looking at it again tonight.

Default alarm will be Alarm5.wav

I'm going to allow the selection of playlist files too. So if you use playlists with Windows Media Player, you can select it in Klaxon.

Klaxon will allow custom skins: all the images that it loads will be available and editable in the Klaxon installation directory. (pretty simple change to make)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] :
Sweet!

It's simply amazing. This product just keeps getting better and better.

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
Great - alarm5.wav I trust IS available in stock devices right?

Really hope you look the other things I noted too - esp. override audio settings, *** off should be much smaller than snooze *** (ok even in default skin, since you are planning to implement skins), vibration, incrimental volume (goes with override audio settings I guess) and of course, kill Klaxon screen after snooze until next ring... ah and some chronometers with laps, some countdown timers... nice things simple to make hehehe (to save you from going 3 pages back to read me :D :D :D)

(btw, works great with SSMaPa and in fact really "pushes" the program forward)

Hi! Your work is great.....but the wm alarms still works ... :-(

I attach txt file....the wake up was scheduled at 5.55 of september 23.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] larsosca:
The day before yesterday I set a wakeup alarm at 05:45, yeah it's early. :eek:

Yesterday evening I reset the alarm to 7:30

Still this morning it woke me up at 05:45 again, but also at 7:30 as it should.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] CyberGene:
Koush, I am still getting a very strange behavior - I have disabled light and shake sensors and have left only the flip. After I flip to snooze, the device vibrates once and supposedly goes into snooze but after a while without touch or anything just by itself it vibrates twice and then the alarm is off :(

I am attaching the log. I am looking at the log and I can't see anything strange. Could it be that when I flip the phone down, the hard surface beneath (it's a wicker chair) pushes the OFF button?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] scolling:
Dude - great app, love the new UI

A quick request for your consideration - any chance we could have an option to set a default alarm tune, so if we want to just set a quick alarm for something we don't have to go and pick a track?

Also, in the same vein as the above request, could we have an option to choose default days - I've set a few alarms recently and forgot to select which day it should activate on. For me, I'd prefer it to assume I want the alarm to go off every day unless I deselect them - at least then it will sound on the day I need it.

But these are just "icing on the cake" requests - I'm very gratefull for what you've done - thanks :-)

Simon
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
I looked at your log, and something other than a sensor is closing the form (meaning it is probably the button). So that is probably what is happening. I have improved the logging in that area to help track down your issue. Please download the version I just released (not much has changed, only logging and some performance tweaks) and send me another log file in a day or two!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
According to the log, Klaxon did not fire today (9/23) at 5:45.

08-09-22 05:45:02:	Sounding Alarm: Upp och hoppa!!

08-09-23 07:30:20:	Sounding Alarm: Upp och hoppa!!

Was it maybe the Windows Alarm that woke you up at 5:45 today? That would be a Home Screen Integration related bug.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] giovag7:
Any opinion about this problem?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
Set your Expire timer setting to 30 minutes so it plays the alarm for a long time before turning off.

Not Working for me!!! Why???
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Evoluti0n:
good app..........
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] imranbashir_uk:
Koush

Just tried 2.0.0.10 and can confirm that the sound looping issue has been fixed. Many thanks...

The application is now nearly perfect apart from the following: -

1. It still needs some way of going into standby when snoozing to save battery power.

2. While snoozing, the snooze time will reset itself whenever the device is moved. This should be disabled and the snooze time should continue to countdown unless the user physically turns off the alarm by pressing the onscreen button.

3. Allow the option to stop creating a log file. Once a user is happy with the way the application works there is no needs for this debug tool.

I also have a couple of GUI suggestions (All minor issues): -

1. The icons along the bottom are not very clear.

New alarm could be like the edit icon with a plus or star in the corner.

The delete icon could be like a recycle bin.

When setting up a new alarm the ‘Cog’ is meaningless maybe reuse the tools icon.

When clicking on the ‘Cog’ icon the back button is displayed at the top, should this not be a Tick?

2. Kinetic finger scrolling needs to be implemented when searching for an alarm sound, or optionally allow one default sound to be set for every alarm.

Do users have different sounds for different alarms? If yes then at least open back in the last folder where you selected your previous alarm sound.

Apologies if any of this has been covered before, I have not had time to catch up with your updates.

P.S Mine seems to be working fine installed to the internal storage rather than the program memory!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
.10?

where?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] iridio:
Install apptodate to your device ;)

@Koush: I think would be nice to have Incremental sound. is it possible?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
have it but don't use it :P

strange there is no report in this thread or the site...

EDIT: well apptodate reports I am up to date with .10, but in Klaxon info I see .9...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tabugman:
First, I must say I love Klaxxon. However, one feature I would love is that it should have an alarm sound which it defaults to if you don't select a sound file.

Right now, it's a bit cumbersome to be forced to select a sound file if you just want to set a quick one time alarm. Ideally, you should just have to set the time and press ok in which case it should use a default sound.

Keep up the good work!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mouseymousey:
Is there anyway of changing the volume of the alarm in any of the later version?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] imranbashir_uk:
The only version i tried before 2.0.0.10 was 1.0.0.37

Both were downloaded directly from Koush's site. I don't bother using AppToDate as i see no point in continually upgrading software. If it works and is bug free, then why bother upgrading unless you need want the new features...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Koush:
It was a test build that I put out to try to fix another user's problem. It also has slight performance improvements. Minor changes overall, so I didn't post about it.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] logger:
Koush, nice improvement with the GUI. It really looks slick and professional. (I Dont feel like reading 50 pages of the thread just now.) So forgive me these suggestions have been covered.

1) If I add a new alarm, it makes more sense to me to have it active by default rather than having to take the extra step of activating it. This is along the same lines as the poster who suggested a default sound is set. Just makes setting a quick alarm easier.

2) I would like to be able to alter the default snooze and expire times. Your defaults do not suit me therefore there is yet another step to complete to set a new alarm. This and the 2 steps in item 1 are 3 steps that could be removed in setting alarms.

3)Time input is nice. Anyway you could make the minutes split so tens of minute could be incremented. 30 taps is a bit of a nuisance.

4)Also on Time input - (again only my opinion) - the snooze/expire/delay increments laterally whereas the regular time input vertically. Would be more intuitive if they were consistent.

I also had a few problems with the alarms triggering along with the Windows alarm, but I took a look at your website and established that the cause of this was probably of my own making. I see visiting the Windows alarm applet is a no no when integration is enabled.

Nice Job,
