Hello,

I am wondering if anyone has had any problems with Chronos V3.5.2 (alarm application)? I am having a problem where the alarm sometimes works, sometimes it does not.

if not,
what applications are you using or would you suggest using?


Thanks

THe only application which works all the way right is SPB Time ... all other applications such as CityTime Alarms, Chronos etc. are pathetic excuse for alarm software. There is always something not working.

I've installed SPB Time 2.2.1 and found a bug witch was corrected in 2 weeks by the SPB team. Now version 2.2.2 build 1312 is more than perfect.

something ive noticed with my alarm (SPB Time) is that if i let the ephone go into sleep mode it doesnt always work, i notice that when i bring the phon eout of sleep the time is usually 15-30 minutes off, then it jumps the correct time (this is in S2U2) so im assuming the phone doesnt keep real time when in sleep mode, cause the alarms to miss their time

haven't noticed such problem ... works like a charm for me.

Thank you for your help.

SBPtime is working good, so far!
I will repost here if it flakes out.

Too bad the today screen does offer more customization (probably in a future release)
for example digital time font, size, the ability to show/not show alarms, or the ability to change the format of the date

but still much better than chronos.

I made the same experience like //osavioro//, I have tried also many alarm apps, but non one works correctly. And I have contacted the contributors for support - but I didn't receive any answer!!!! :(
How is possible that the programmer can sell apps that didn't work correctly, so I understand now, why some user (except me) use keygen and exe-patches!

i think the problem is with the mogul and how often it updates the system time, not with the alarm app(s)
