I wrote myself an alarm clock application, which I've dubbed (for reasons that I hope are obvious) "Alarm Clock".

I don't get it.

:)

This is exciting. Now, if you can figure out how to allow custom ringtones, you'd be a millionaire on ad-space alone! Ah-za!

Is this available for public consumption? I am a recent Sidekick owner and am contemplating a return on the sole reason it doesn't even have a simple alarm clock.

I'd be happy to send you a copy, but you won't be able to install it on your phone until you get a developer key.

One feature I'd really like to see in an alarm clock is something like the 'recurrent alarm' feature on Ericsson phones, where you can specify which day(s) of the week the alarm will go off on, e.g. 7:00 AM mon-fri. Maybe having multiple scheduled alarms (3-4) would be nice though even having one on a recurrent schedule would be awesome.

Can you install developer apps on a phone without switching to the dev-only backend, or is it still a requirement that you eschew all the normal data services while testing an app? I never got around to developing on the SK1 for that reason.

I'd like to implement scheduled alarms, but since this was my first stab at a real application, I was keeping the first version simple. ;)

Yes, once you obtain a dev key, you can install non-Catalog apps on the phone while using the standard customer backend. I'm really glad they changed that. The dev-only backend thing was the same reason I never got into SK1 development.

Where do you get a developer key? I was going crazy trying to look for an alarm on the sidekick 3. This is the first time I purchased a sidekick 3. When will the app be available?

how do you get the developer key? i need an alarm too. =( confusion overwhelms me

I don't understand why they got rid of the clock/alarm clock they had as an early downloadable from their catalog. I had it on my color Sidekick, and it was great. It had a stopwatch, all different types of tones that could be used for different types of alarms, etc. I just upgraded to SK3, and my clock is gone gone gone!

The old applications have to be recompiled for the Sidekick 3, and in some cases they need to be tweaked to deal with API changes. I imagine Time Traveler will return eventually.

do you think you could send this application to me? if you send it to me does it has to be to my sidekick or can you just email it to me?

So can you only get a alarm clock on a sidekick 3 and not a 2? i rely on my cell all the time to wake me up for school and i got a sidekick 2 and it doesn't have a alarm clock..if you can get one on a sidekick 2 and help me out i would really appreicate it. thanks Alexis

This is what Im looking for....I desperatly need the alarm clock on my phone...I always used it on my razor...

So I went to the site. I signed up. I dont know how to get a developer key...Im not writing any codes and I dont have a refferal. Can you help? I would like to get your alarm clock that you speak of. Please email me. Thank you!!!

i always depended on the time traveler app on my sk2 to wake me up, and to alarm at certain times, now i cant do it on the sk3, i was lookin desperately and couldnt find anything.

if this guy makes the program, how can i install it on my phonE?

Hi could you please e-mail me with what your program holds. I don't really understand why they wouldn't put an alarm clock on this phone!!! I don't know what phone in 2006 doesn't have one. Also questions about the key.. thank you

Developer keys are for developers. If you aren't a developer, you can't have one. Even if you did manage to get one, you wouldn't know what to do with it because that would require you to read and comprehend written instructions.

Now go back to your MySpace pages and American Idol fan forums and stop bothering me.

All these posting have the same desire to install your software on the sidekick.
Is it possible?
If yes how?
Can you detail the steps for neophites
Thanks
Paul

this would be so awesome if they approve ur app in the catalog... i'll so pay for ir and download it... eff gettin' a developer key cuz i ain't smart enough to creat a app and submit it and all the java bs... haha mad props to this app and creator.. let me know when it becoms availiable i want it!!!

Great work really for people who want it but....

I really don't understand all the fuss I'm sorry. What is so "complex" about setting a repeating event in calendar? It really isn't all that hard and works great as an alarm for me personally. In fact I can set it to just ring on certain days (minus the weekends) or whatever. I just don't understand why people make such a fuss or want to "turn my sidekick in because it doesn't have alarm"

It does have alarm functionality built right in and really not that complex at all. The only downside I'll admit is that you need to find a fairly long tone to use as the alarm. "Karsilama" seems to work fairly well for me.

More power to you Time Travellers and now this app though if you want it. Keep up the great development work!

I would definately pay for this and from the looks of the responses on hiptop.com, so would a lot of other people.

i own a sdk3 and i need i dev key ill pay money for it i know its kind of hard to get it but if anyone is interested on making some money email me at jonathan393@hotmail.com

You would be my hero if you gave me a copy of your alarm clock device. I am a computer novice so I probably will not know how to install it ( I haven't even figured out how to recieve pictures on my sidekick. But I am desperate for an alarm clock on my phone.

hey you think perhaps you could help me get a developer key

my email is solidnukem@gmail.com

Can u explain how to setup a morning alarm on calender until the app gets out. please. thanx.

i depend on my phone alarm as well. I was shocked to find out that my old razor phone had more practical features than the sk3... can you please let me know as soon as the application is ready to download?! you're a god sent. thank you!

WOW!!!! YES!!!! FInally, I was hoping Danger would send an alarm application for the SK3 but I dont think they will anytime soon. So can you let us know when its available, PLEASE? I am willing to pay for the alarm on my SK3. Thank You!

i cant get the catalog, its says fetching cataog contents but it never does anything!!! wut can i do??

Hey Wonko,
I just got my developer key - could you send me a copy of your alarm clock app? Thanks!

I really need the alarm. I just got the sidekick 3..and i feel so mad..this freaking calendar thing its starting to annoy me..:(...please help me!! am so mad with t mobile.

Time Traveler is now available in the catalog for the Sidekick 3. Give it a try. It's got a pretty nice alarm clock feature.

I can't figure this out at all for some reason!.

Can someone please help me for i go crazy or don't graduate from school because of this?

Hi, I just downloaded the nessecary files, and I'm just starting to develop apps for my sidekick 3, and I just wanted to get the developer key so I could run these third party apps such as your task manager and mabey, if you were to send me it, your alarm clock, and see how good they run and learn off of them. Mabey you could drop me a line and I could give you my danger account details if you need them or something.

Wow, would it be possible for you to email me the app, as soon as its done? I would greatly appreciate it. I too rely on my phone as an alarm.

dude ..... how do you set all this crap up pleasee helppp me .

I just got my new sidekick 3...and i was so happy about it, not until i knew that there is no alarm clock...i am a working student and i rely on my cellphone all my life..i just got rid of my pink razor..it has a lot more features than sidekick (except for the email part) but can you pls help me...is there any way i can download or buy something so i cud have an alarm...thanks

Can you please send me this app so that i can put it on my phone.

all of you didn't pay attention to what wonko said did you? because they clearly stated that Time Traveler is avaliable on the catalag now. it's really simple to get an alarm clock now. yeah you have to pay $4.99 for it but most of you are saying that you'll do it for this application. just get time traveler and be done with your sorry complaining.

Where can I get this application and how much is it?

Hi I sgined up on danger to get a Dev Key and never did so im looking around everywhere to get one if anyone wanna send me theirs an ill change the numbers on it to my dev key cuz i made a program that you can download ringers from your email into your ringer part of the phone so i need a dev beacuse my pc messed up an i had to delete everything so email me asap humancrackindaflesh@tmail.com Thx!

So how do I get a copy of this alarm clock?! I also rely on my phone to wake me up, it is very frustrating that they don't have it on the phone. If you could help me out, I'd really appreciate it! :)

download the application called time traveler in the catalog. you can schedule multiple alarms. there's even one labeled "Wake Up".

Is this Alarm Clock working on my sk2?? I need this sincec we don't get any apps here in Austria. If you can get me the source files, i compile it myself.

So I went in today [to t-mobile] and like a badass that I am, I decided to splurge on the Sidekick 3...I mean it's an awesome phone and all but c'mon! No alarm clock?! That is fucking blasphemy and a slap in the face to the year 2007...So what am I doing at midnight [right now]? Downloading the Time Traveler so that I can get up tomorrow morning in time for class. Oh well at least it is only $4.99 because after the $300 that I spent on the phone to begin with that is just pocket change. Peace, chumps.

I just got my developer account, can you send me a key or reffer me? I would apperciate it, free exchange of info is a great thing.

Hey im just about to write a app for the sidekick 3 to get a developer key.. can somebody tell me how to proceed? ... shall i write it and then send it to danger.. or how can I test it? 'prechiate for any answers! thnx!

do you think you can email me the ALARM CLOCK?

thank you

could you help me please. i need an alarm clock really bad but i have no idea where to start to design one or develope one please help

for those on here wanting dev keys and complianing about sidekick not having an alarm clok here are a couple things to think about

Dev Keys are for serious programmers, and are a privilage NOT a right

If you spend 300 dollars on a phone i would hope you would do enough research to know it doesnt have an alarm clock

Ok, I would be HAPPY to download time travelor from the catalog. ummm WHAT CATALOG and WHERE IS IT? I keep reading and I don't understand where it is...

Thank you. Suz

Hey I was wondering if it would be possible to get the alarm clock and all the necessary things to get it on my sidekick. I am lost without an alarm right now. The repeat event is not sufficient for an alarm clock...it just stops even if I am not awake yet to turn it off. Please help.

this is retarded how the sk3 doesnt have an alarm clock!! it has almost everything but that and wonko there really is no reason for the attitude we all jus wana kno how n what to do so that we can get up for work or school and since u were the only one who knew we thought we would ask...but im guna say thank you for tellin me to try time travler because it worked... people just try it! if ur not a "developer" your not guna know how to use the "developer key"!! so just do the next best thing...

Hey I downloaded the time traveler but for some reason I can't figure out how to set an alarm... I can only set the time for 4 different locations... please help!!!

I need help gettin the alarm clock from above for my sidekick3....I have been lookin for an alarm clock for a while now...

can some one plz help me get a alram clock 4 my sidekick 3 plz

plz help me plz

Y doesn't my alarm go off when i set it as a daily event in my organizer?! is there a certain button i need to push after i set all the settings that i'm not doing?!

COOL!

Can anyone tell me where I can find the catalog for the sidekick 3?

Thanks

Hi. I was wondering if you could send me a copy or something and show me how to install it? email: dbarragan10@gmail.com

Can you give me the developers key?! Lol. Joking bro. I do have a serious question for you if all the other ignorant posts haven't totally stopped you from checking this blog. So I've got the developing tools and have started toying with creating an application. Is there no way to test the app without having the dk to put it on my phone? I realize I may fuck it up royaly, but I'm not a newbie so much and think I've got it pretty much down. Is the process just to submit my bundle and if whoever sees it thinks it may workl then they'll think about sending me the developers key? Any help would be appreciated, but I understand if you're out of patience. Thanks in advance...

I have a developer key. can u send me a copy?

i think it was really stupid to get rid of the alarm clock feature more than half the people i no returned theirs just for that alone and im not so sure im gonna keep mine after now

You can download an alarm clock to your phone – go to download catalog – it’s 2.99

Hi. Just got a used Sidekick 3 and want to have an alarm clock downloaded. When I go to the catalogue, it just says “The catalog will be available once data service has been restored”. I’m with T-Mobile. Suggestions? Thank you.

Can anyone send me the Alarm App? I have a developer key! Please! My email is:

Kalicostm@gmail.com
Maligrostm@aol.com

Thank You! I would really appreciate it!

there is one already you go to settings go to sound profiles go down to schedule sound profiles and click every day you can set sound and time you want it to go off every day and they have two alrams on it acually dialy and weekly verry cool

i have a dev key can you send me the alarm app please
dezdleake@aol.com

i had the sidekick 2 back in the day and there were a lot of apps in the catalog…i now have the sidkick lx 2009 and what happened to all the apps???

Hi, Is this app suitable for sidekick 2? if it does can you send it to me please? thankyou very much.

if you go to the main sidekick screen then go to settings, then date, time, and alarm, there’s a free alarm. i didn’t find this out until after i paid three dollars for one. it’s simple to use, although i don’t think you can customize the sound it rings in the morning.
