I'm disappointed ICS no longer have old schools alarm sound like ring and buzzer.
Is there any way to add these manually then assign it on alarm or could it be baked or added to custom roms

Yes; stick the MP3 in the "Alarms" folder.
OK! Will try it later, I'm going to have to find those loud and annoying ringtones. Thanks!

I have noticed over the last few ROM flashes (currently on SR4) that for some reason my ringtones are duplicated at least twice, as well as notification sounds and alarm sounds. I am sure the answer is simple as to why but I have not had any luck finding anything on XDA or Google. Can someone explain to me why this is happening?
Thanks!!
When you say this, do you mean you hear two audible duplicate sounds - or are they listed twice somewhere.

Sorry, listed twice when you go to choose a ringtone, alarm, or notification sound.

Maybe it's just me but I've noticed this phone doesn't have some basic feature like most “dumb phone" have. I can't seem to find a timer and I can figure out how to turn off shutter noise even if I put the phone in vibrate or silent mode. I know you can download a timer from market but would of been nice to include in the phone.

Simply use the volume rocker when the camera is open to silence the shutter.

The whole point of Android is to customise how you want it. That's why it more or less comes with all of Google's apps and no other apps (by it I mean Google's phones).
Yea. Android has never had a timer by default.

/system/media/audio/ui/
camera_click.ogg
camera_focus.ogg
delete/rename those two and it'll remove focus & shutter sound. CM7 had the feature to disable shutter sound, should expect it in CM9.
Hi. I recently buy a tmobile s2 and was in 2.3.5 for about a week. As i set my alarm to wake up at 7.20 evry time alarm start it rings and says alarm its seven tweenty every morning.

Have you checked to make sure you didn't turn the alarm volume off? It's that a lot of times. Also leave the phone on. A lot of people think their phone will turn on to sound the alarm and turn them off at night to save battery.

Could also try an alarm app from the marketplace. Or rooting and flashing a different rom.

That's what I would do. I didn't know that the stock alarm spoke, but I downloaded smarter alarm from the market and it is great. Tells me the time, news, weather, new emails, and calls me by my name. Can't beat that IMO

I can't seem to find this feature in the system sound settings. Does anyone know of an app for this that works well with the Nexus?
For regular ring tones or alarm clock?

For the regular phone ringtones.
Hi I hate the stock alarm tone and I use the google now to set my alarm but then I have to go into settings and change the tone it defeats the purpose of the voice activation. So I am using AOKP M6 right now and in the future I will be using the aokp jb from when it gets out of alpha stages so can anyone help?
Edit: I see that it is in the build.prop it says alarm=then the name of the alarm.ogg. so if I change it to buzzer_alarm.ogg then it will work? I don't want to f anything up
no one knows how to do this? Really ?
I've never actually changed the sound of the alarm on my phone, but if the location of the alarm file is indeed where you say; you could create a nandroid backup, change the alarm tone, and if it fails/breaks something, restore from your backup.

Lol. Just use a dang third party alarm app. Alarm Clock Extreme is awesome. And of course you can change alarm sounds. Easy fix and better than the system alarm. Been using it for years.

I just copy the alarm sound from other roms and push them to system/media/audio/alarms and write permissions rw-r-r-
