Clock app , why can't u change alarm tone? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi all
i used to use 3rd party alarm clock apps until the 4.2 update which introduced a rather polished feeling clock app that i really like all is perfect from the timer to the world clock but there's one really REALLY simple feature that i don't have a clue how to do
CHANGE THE ALARM RINGTONE
and i am dead serious i ca't find a way to change it! theres only potassium hassium sium this sium that ....so any help ?

take any sound you want to use as an alarm.
create a folder on 'sdcard'
/sdcard/media/audio/alarms
put sounds in there
select from list in alarm app

You can change alarm sounds. I use Zedge application to download ringtones and alarm tones and notification alert tones. You can set it directly from within the app. They have a huge collection. Go have a look at it too

Sorry i didnt explane very well, i was meaning to ask how can i change the alarm tone to a music file or something alike.
normally alarm clock tones are named Alarm1 to 5, choose any music you have in your ppc in wav format and rename it to Alarm6 then put it in the windows directory. Then go to the alarm clock section to set the desired music as alarm tone

If you have several music files to choose from...you don't even have to rename them...just make sure they are in .WAV format ( since this is the only format that seems to be accepted as alarm tones )...paste them in the windows folder...when you go to "Clocks and Alarms" and you click on the "bell", the music files should appear in the dropdown menu.
Hope that helps.

Enabling existing alarms and not creating new ones

Hi, i think the title says it all
im new in this NFC thing, recieved my tags yesterday and i spend the day playing with it!
but i have one question / problem and i dont know if its possible, i want to enable the alarm, but the alarms i already had programed in my clock,
but i can only create new alarms.
i tryed dozens of nfc apps in playstore, and all have the same function to alarm, they add a new one instead of enabling the existing ones..
any workaround for this ?
thanks
The reason for this is that pretty much all alarm apps (including stock) allow for multiple alarms, so if you tap a tag that is just supposed to turn your alarm on, it wouldn't know which one. The Samsung Tectile app kinda has a work around - you set up an alarm within the app, then you can create a tag to just turn on, turn off, or toggle that one alarm in the app. Of course, this is dependent upon you having a phone that the Samsung Tectile app is compatible with and also having 1K tags because their app uses more memory for a simple task than any other NFC app out there.
That's the only nfc app I know of that has a feature kinda like what you are wanting to do. Hope that helps.

The reason for this is that most apps use the ALARM intent to set alarms. Some apps (like the stock AOSP clock package) identify duplicate alarms and enable them rather than creating new alarms. Others (like HTC and Samsung's clock packages) create a new alarm every time.
To get around this you could try operating directly on the alarms databases (assuming they are exposed via a content resolver and there's a listener to pick up the changes).
Would just turning alarm volume up or down to mute accomplish what you want?

[Q] Defautl alarm sound

I know how to set the ringtone, the notification tone and the sound for the agenda.
But I cannot find a way to set the default alarm tone.
Whenever I create an alarm, the alarmsound is default on standard ringtone (Alarm). I can change this but I cannot change the default alamrtone.
IS this possible and if yes how to?

This only changes the alarm sound for the selected alarm, the default alarm sound stays untouched
