anyone know how to add a reminder to an alarm?
When the alarm rings there appears to be a default/space where a note could be written, but I can't figure out how to access it.
Any ideas??
TIA
I can only think of the name of the reminder - pretty sure that's all you can set. You can add notes in Calendar appointments but afaik these don't show when the reminder sounds, only when you view the item.
rgds,

Hi, I've got my Galaxy S for 3 days now and can't figure out how to change the notification tone for calendar reminders.
Searching the net and this forum did not bring me really further (there is supposed to be a "more" under settings but it is just not shown for me).
Thank you for your help and sorry if it's a dumb question it is my first Android after years of HTC WM.

1) On SDkard make a new map called; media.
2) Open media and make a new map called; audio.
3) Open audio and make two maps, notifications and ringtones
Inside the map of notifications attach your personal mp3.
Finished
thank you for your instructions. which i followed. but still can't choose a tone from the menu options in the calendar just the overall notification tone.
I have the same problem (I have started another thread for this a few days ago)...

Yeah I was interested in changing some of the default tones as well, such as the battery low tone.
The program Calendar Snooze lets me choose an alternative tone for reminders BUT additionally to the original tone (but still better than nothing).
There is a hint screen in Calendar Snooze saying that one should disable the default alert in the calendar to exclusively use the one chosen by yourself - what of course I can't do.
My friend's HTC Legend shows (within the calendar app) the option to change the reminder tone.
And yes I read something about reaching the "more" option in the calendar by using hw keyboard or trackball both not available for us.
Any further hints on this highly appreciated
Not sure where best to post this, so hope this is the right place. The default reminder time for calendar events is 15 minutes. Can the default be changed rather than having to manually edit each event I add in my phone? Or is this another example of MS locking down most settings on an otherwise great OS?
I looked and looked for you... no success. Sorry, but I believe this will be another one of those "wait for update" features.
Set default calendar reminder to none.

I have the same exact problem. I need to set my default calendar reminder on HD7 to none.
Is there a way to go into the registry using a regeditor to do this?
When I set an event in Google Calendar and add an alarm to ring 10 minutes before it starts, my Nokia will ring, but my Desire will keep silent even though the event is synchronized into its calendar.
Is there any way to make Desire ring on alarmed Google Calendar events?

a quick google has come up with someone much cleverer than me who has created an app that looks to be what you are after ....
here is his blog
http://blog.invalidobject.com/android-app-calendar-event-reminder
apparently its available on the market
Do I really have to pay for such basic functionality?

No you don't. It is standard. Just look at the settings in the stock calendar app.
Wau Calendar Event Reminder is great app. Thanks
It's a good app ... but the alarming is built in and should be on by default .... have you played with the settings? I believe you have set up the google account ... do you see the event in your calendar phone (first trouble shooting)?
Hey guys I'm on Jellybean and this being my first smartphone, I'm not sure how to go about this. I have seen people with iPhone get notifications (popups) when they have an upcoming event.
Is there a way to do that with the galaxy nexus?
I dont want a changing color LED or a ringtone, just a popup on screen near the time of the event. If not a pop-up, just something at the notification bar. Thanks
When creating / editing event, scroll towards bottom and you have option to set a reminder and timescale for the reminder(s). Can have notifications on phone and/or an email reminder

Notifications/reminders as in "Pick up milk and eggs" or "call xyz at 7pm"? Grab a tasking app like Astrid (it's free from the play store) and it will do exactly that (and much more if you want it to)

You can set reminders in the form of an alarm from Google now.
For example: if you say "remind me to pick up dinner at 5pm" it will set an alarm with the tag "pick up dinner" for 5pm
calendar snooze is an excellent must have addition to the stock calendar. Its excellent.
Does anyone know of a calendar app/widget that can alert me on the lock screen? The calendar app that came with the stock Samsung S III had a feature like this. When it was time to alert me for an upcoming calendar entry, it would make an alert sound, and a note would show up on the lock screen, with the option to dismiss the reminder or snooze it (pretty much like how the alarm app works).
I have Cyanogenmod, and I use the calendar widget on the lock screen, but I miss the alert part (with snooze/dismiss).
