Klaxon – G-Sensor and Light Sensor Enabled Alarm Clock for HTC Touch Pro
August 26th, 2008 Posted in Utilities
Using Klaxon is pretty straightforward; it’s more or less like the standard Clocks and Alarms application.
G-Sensor Instructions:
-
Flip your phone over to snooze.
-
Shake your phone to turn the alarm off.
Latest updates:
- Fixed bug where Klaxon immediately closes because it thinks it was shook when the alarm starts (bug in HTC G-Sensor being initialized). I haven’t experienced this myself, but I think that is what is happening from the indication in the various logs I received.
- Fixed bug where disabling an alarm does not actually disable it.
- Made Home Screen integration optional: The “My Windows Alarm is firing with Klaxon” bug/issue is tricky. This is happening because I tried to integrate Klaxon alarm with the HTC home screen. I am enabling the Windows in the registry to achieve this, but since this goes around Windows, the alarm never actually gets scheduled and should not fire; but apparently for some people it is. To get integration working properly, do the following:
- Disable all Windows alarms.
- Start Klaxon, and turn on the new setting to enable Home Screen integration.
- DO NOT USE WINDOWS ALARMS ANYMORE! Using Windows alarms while trying to use Klaxon integration is what is causing the problem. If you must use Windows alarm with Klaxon, I would turn home screen integration off.
- Klaxon now restores your original volume after the alarm is shut off.
- Clicking the alarm now opens the Edit form.

How do I get a different sound to play for the alarm?
I see the “speaker” icon and when I click that it give me a chane to explore different folders but your app doesn’t seem to see any of sound/music flies. What’s is looking for?
MP3, WAV?
thanks.,
