So I just overslept because my alarm didn't sound because my gingerbread phone was on silent mode and eh06 has a bug that keeps alarms from playing in silent mode. Then I remembered this app which comes on whenever you put your phone volume to silent and asks you how long. Its called Shush on the market. Handy workaround for the no alarm in silent bug by automatically restoring your ring for you.
Hope this helps someone not oversleeping like I just did!

Personally I'd consider no alarm in silent mode to be intentional. Silent is supposed to stay silent.
As for what you're trying to do, I'd recommend using Tasker. You can do pretty much anything you'd want to automate your phone for, with just one running process in the background. For this, you could just set a simple timer that resets your volume every night at 5am before the alarm goes off. Or you could replace the stock alarm entirely.

Well its not the behavior of the alarm in ec05 it is only in the leaks of gingerbread and even in the leaks if you eneable the smart alarm feature which plays relaxing sounds before the alarm those sounds play bit the alarm does not.

Ever used your XP to replace your alarm clock? Has it been a good substitute? I'm thinking of doing that... I'm wondering if it will work better than the broken one I have now and the cheap one I bought from Walmart...
I use it all the time, it's loud and obnoxious. Just the thing you'll need to wake up in the morning haha. It's easy to set too, and you can have lots of different alarms set, it's a pretty sweet built in clock/alarm.
Yes. Yes. It is very very good as an alarm.
I use alarm clock plus, it's free and more obnoxious than STOCK

I use the Xperia Play as my default alarm clock and I use the ' Xperia ' ringtone for the alarm. Sounds so nice in the morning
I have the dock and it makes the XP the best Alarm Clock ever.
when it wakes me up I never now which button is snoose and which is disable - I wish they were bigger in size and coloured red and green to make it more visible
Combined with the dock, it's my current alarm clock. I use the " rise up" melody, because it's nice enough, and it's been fine so far.
I've used it before as an alarm. It was good. It woke me up anyway.

Yeah, I guess this should all make sense since you can hook it up with a speaker...
Yup use it everyday, I have the XP dock sitting beside my bed, threw out my old alarm clock.

So what if the sound is off (from the power button) to not wake people up because of notification sounds... will it still beep or make noise to wake you up?
I place my phone right next to my head and I wake up to Edith Piaf, Inception baby!
I use the default alarm clock that's in stock, I don't like the standard ringtone, hence why it's easy to wake up every morning

The alarm clock will still go off as loud as possible even with sound off, no need to worry. I keep my phone on vibrate at all times and it has never failed to play the alarm sounds and wake me up.
Always! Stock alarm clock with the Piezo Alarm as the sound with volume all the way up... Very ear piercing! Even if I snooze the alarm for about 40 minutes or until my mum yells at me to actually get up.
please note i have had some issues with the alarm not going off even though i set a test alarm and i didnt use a task killer.

That exact same thing has happened to me maybe once or twice. It would just say that my alarm is set for the next day, like it was skipped or something.
I bought the XperiaPlay dock since it was only cheap for this very purpose.
Sadly, didn't realise I couldn't use it with any kind of case.
So I have been unable to use the dock.
Wow, this is some coincidence. I was just about to post and saw this topic.
Just got my dock. Only problem is, the phone doesn't go into the alarm clock mode as shown in the pictures. I guess it's because of some bloatware i removed. can someone please tell me what app is required for the dock-clock mode?
Also, like some people are using it, I would also be keeping it on a small side-table next to my bed, with both cables unplugged. Since the phone is plugged into the earphone jack on the dock, wouldn't that disable the phone speakers and therefore no alarm sound?
So I overslept today - no alarm. And it turned out that my new ONE X doesn't want to sound the alarm, when it is in flight (airplane) mode. This is the case not only with the stock alarm, but also with a couple of other alarm apps I've tried.
I prefer to go flight mode during the night, to make sure there are no random messages through any medium whatsoever. The option "also in silent mode" is ticked on, if this is of any consequence.
Is there anything one can do?
Also, alarm in the silent mode (even if the corresponding option is checked) doesn't produce sounds, only vibration. This is lame.
Yeah, and bump for the op.
Noone is bothered by that or noone else has that problem?
I use the HTC Dock App as my alarm clock, that works fine
Si
this is it
just put mine in silent and set a test alarm, worked fine with sound - you sure your alarm volume is turned up?
Ok, i put my phone on silent mode from 2230hrs until 0700hrs every day. But some weeks i start work at 0530hrs and my alarm still sounds.
Sometimes i need to do a shift swap and forget to set my alarm but it is on my google calender.
Is there a way to play calendar alarms / event tones / notifications even when phone is in silent mode?
I have looked through the phone settings but thought i may have missed something.
I also use an app called Timeriffic which i find quite useful
Thanks.
using ARHD7.2.2 intil tonight when i move to 8.0.0
Does anyone know how I can NOT silence the timer?
I would like to turn off the notifications of my phone, so that I won't get calls or texts but still be able to hear the timer?
For instance, say I want to take a 30 minute nap...and I turn down the volume on my phone to silence everything. I set a 30 minute timer...only problem is that it is silenced too!
Does anyone know of a way to be able to hear my timer and still turn off the other features of the phone?
Thanks
Mike

Yes, use your alarm instead. The alarm volume overrides the system settings. To my knowledge, it's the only one that does, unless you can find a stand alone app.

I use alarm clock plus. It has a setting to overide system volumes and will play even if everything is turned down. It has both alarms and a "nap timer" Great app.
MOD EDIT I edited the title. Some of the words were not needed to convey your meaning @gregbradley
This has been up around before, i have searched and not found an answer.
Someone had the bright idea that "Do Not Disturb" puts the Alarm out of business. A Genius idea, since 95% of the world use "Do not disturb" when they sleep.
I am a very light sleeper. I am currently faced with the most annoying problem ever, and due to waking up 15times a night, i am getting beyond adjudicated due to lack of a good nights sleep. You guessed it, i wake up from the vibration!
The LG G3. Turn it all the way, and you get Virbate, Alarm still works.
Do not disturb, no vibrate, ahh nice, but now no Alarm.
I came from a G2, where i could pick Vibrate of full silent with only Alarm working. THIS IS THE F'ing feature thats missing, and i am fully aware that this is a know issue for most G3 users.
Who the heck came up with this stupid idea, and how can get to a point where my phone is dead silent but the ONLY sound that MUST work is from the Alarm?!
Is there a work around, is there an app i can use, anything, please help me get some SLEEP!
I agree that the only days I missed school is because of this Do not disturb feature I use when I'm busy and.... I miss my alarm!
But missing work is just not an option for me.
This is a situation of doomed if you and doomed if dont, and i dont want to be put in that position by my freaking phone!

If i could, i would. But you cant. when the phone is on vinrate only.
I found a way to work around this now, but its beyond stupid.
Honestly, its like a woman did this. No logic and damn complicated.

Settings --> Sound --> Notifications --> Do Not Disturb --> Schedule -- Set the times and days you do not want to be interrupted, set the end time to be a few minutes before your alarm is due to go off, remember you need to start it from the night before, so if you work Monday to Friday you need to choose Sunday to Thursday, assuming that you go to sleep before midnight that is.
You can now leave your phone on normal volume, do not need to to mute or set to vibrate only.
Use priority mode, I had the same issue as you until I figured out how to use priority mode and keep it completely silent.
sound - notifications - do not disturb - make sure calendar events are ticked...
after wards go to home screen, set to DND and press volume down once you will get "
Do not disturn
1. on Priority Off
Select priority and presto! eveything else but calendar events (alarms) will be silent.
