Apparently, I was trying to figure out if we could set custom alarm ringtones on my phone, but it turns out all the alarm ringtone files on the system are under a different file extension. Can anyone help me out with this issue?
Many thanks is appreciated.

I dont think you can't change the ringtone in the ICS stock alarm. You could however install the stock GB Alarm and customize the ringtone.

Thanks. Maybe I'll just use those alarm apps instead I guess. Lol.
Are you talking about alarm&clock?
I know android uses .ogg files for ringtones, don't know if it helps

You have to turn off the "style settings" under "advanced alarm settings"

Try deleting the current alarms in the stock app and create new ones. When choosing the alarm sound, you should see in the list any sound file in the /Alarm folder of the internal SD memory. I think when you flash a new firmware the alarms are restored from the Google account but you can't change the alarm sound in those, so you have to delete them and create new ones from scratch.

Does anyone know how to remove the alarm icon in the notifications on 4.53? I saw it for an older version, but it doesn't work for the newer release.
Turn the alarms off?!?!

No, the idea is that the alarms are always on. So the constant notification is a waste of space. I obviously use the alarms and don't want to lose that functionality.
Well, then I guess you are trying to have your cake snd eat it too. Good luck with this one...

For anyone else looking to do this, I took a closer look at SteelH's thread and found the alarm instructions.. The difference is that the StatusBarPolicy.smali file has been moved to the SystemUI.apk instead of the jar file.
SystemUI.apk\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy\StatusBarPolicy.smali

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

Thanks guys for the replay. I get smart alarm. Great forum.

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-

This question is on par with "how do you turn the Phone on". Look in the most obvious place, settings, sound.
Wow, you must have finished college to be so smart!
I wouldnt ask the question if it let me change the sounds in the sound menu!
If you have something helping to say, say it, dont be a smartass!

lmao.. u mean the sound of the notification or the audio files of it?
Audio files, cause the ones they let you choose are crap... i liked the original ones from ICS, so i got them to my sdcard but i cant assign them as notification and alarm tones like yoh could on ICS...

Hi All,
I wanted to try a 3rd party Alarm app.... Here is what happen...
Rather than disable the builtin alarm app on my LG Optimis G phone running 4.2.2 ..CM 10.1 i did the silly thing and removed it via the hold down and the uninstall option from setting menu.
Now that has stuffed up my alarm some how and any other 3rd party alarm i have installed , When alarm goes off they both have no options to turn off or snooze it anymore... i tried to remove it went to reinstall the alarm again..but when alarm goes off there is still no options that pop up to turn off or snooze the alarm. I have to reboot the phone to turn alarm off.
Tried to reinstall Gapps but didnt fix either.. Any advise how i can remove the original alarm and reinstall it without a cmplete reinstall of the Rom... Yes phone is rooted.
Thanks in advance
Snap
I found a work around app that now makes the alarm work properly.. Alarm One app works ...
You could of pushed an alarm app from another ROM using adb, or copy it into system/app directory and reboot.
