Hey all,

I was curious if anyone knows any good alarm clock apps. It's really quite annoying that the default WinMo alarm clock doesn't work if you have your device silenced, but I don't wanna be woken up at night from someone texting me or whatever.

Does anyone know a good alarm clock app that will work and override the system volume?

Thanks!

I use mort player, it has an option to start a playlist on alarm like IPODs do or play a separate file. It doesn't have to be on for the alarm to work.
Search google or xda for: Mort Player

I have been using pTravelAlarm, and its woke me up fine when the phone is on silent or vibrate.

Has 10 different alarms to set, and can use mp3 files as the sound.

Only problem i have found is, when it starts up when the phone is on standbye, it beeps. I have a soft alarm, because i hate being woken suddenly, which is what the beep seems to do when on 'loud'

Halftone: If you uncheck 'events' in 'sounds and notifications' the beep is gone :)

Another pTravelAlarm user here. It's one of the first applications I install on a new PDA / after a hard reset.

I just swiched to the new version of pTravelAlarm, now CradleAlarm 4.0. Very reliable and much more responsive than pTravelAlarm when editing alarms. Same great "force volume" feature that sounds even if the ppc is on silent.

I use Chronos and it works great.

I use SPB time..The alarms that you can set are quite loud and works well for me.

I use this one also and so far i'm very pleased with it. Windows is known for the alarm bug but if you use SPB time you won't be supprised waking up to late because the alarm failed to go off.
