[QUOTE=la3875;... first thing i noted is alarms are gone though it appears alarms still exist by the icon in the top display bar. I will give it a go and keep you posted. [/QUOTE]
Well I should have tried this over the weekend... Regardless, the old alarms appear to still be active as suspected. Ehile the alarm window showed none active after the upgreade, the alarm icon at the top bar was still there. I set new alarms after the upgrade that were slightly later got the old alarm followed by the new one. I'm going to try and clear all and start over. Will let you know how it goes.
Jolouis, in version 0.9.6, I must hit “Alarm Off” twice before it turns off
Try turning "Insomnaic lock" off, see if that helps; I assume this happens when you've got "Insomniac mode" turned on?

Thanks! I'm glad somebody out there enjoys it as much as I do! I did my best to make it fit in with the whole "finger-friendly" mantra of Flip and feel it works quite well/seamlessly for this. If anyone has thoughts on any improvements that could be made for it just let me know!

Okay I'll implement the slider for the snooze time (that's actually really easy to do now). As for the stop watch/count down timer, I did a quick mockup yesterday and it's pretty easy/looks actually quite cool so I'll finish it up and make it work, just in case. I understand a lot of people won't really care about it... personally I've never seen a use for this type of thing on the tablet, though the countdown mode might be handy I suppose... but at least it will be there if anyone's interested since it's not a heck of a lot of work to implement.
la3875 - Yea just run that clear clear clear command and it will take care of things for you; I actually forgot to implement that in the uninstall file, but will do for next time so that when you uninstall flip if will automatically clear all alarms for you.
Other than that tangent though and Den's issue, everyone's pretty happy with where 0.9.6 is at? I'll also try to get the "random files in a directory" alert mode rolled in as that does seem like a pretty good idea and shouldn't be too hard to do.

Yes, it works fine if you turn "insomniac" off.
Also, I noticed that although I am using 12 hour mode, in the "Night Mode" the "Alarm Set" time at the bottom left of the screen displays time in 24 hour mode (2:00pm displays 14:00).
Also, sometimes the "seconds" (red inverted triangle) goes away. By going to "night mode" and returning to "day mode" it returns.
"Feature creep" is definitely not a good thing, but I think there's a big difference between something like "Add a timer to a clock app", and "add a calendar, email intergration, high powered random noise generator, and quantum theory calculator to a clock app" ;-) Have to know when to draw the line right? ;-)
Hey, jolouis, I'm still hoping for that white noise generator or "ambience sound loop"! I hope you're not throwing out the baby with the quantum theory calculator!
Going back through this page of posts, I don't think I uninstalled the previous version before upgrading to .6... Looks like clear, clear, clear is the path now.
Last observation about the alarms - I hope... So, I did the clear(3) yesterday and noted when I went back to the alarm settings that the path to my music library was still in tact and took for granted all was OK. NOT! (like I noted before I'm a lazy tech consumer) Luckily heard my daughter's alarm this morning. Anyhow it looks like the clear command does not remove the file path and only clears AlarmD. I know this is a small detail but if you dont take for granted that tablet owners are as technically oriented as the rest of this group...
Anyhow, love the new speed of the app and the side swipe to change themes rocks! You are very close to getting out of beta. Thanks always for the effort.
