Notices

Happened to me at some point. Removed the task and recreated it and it's all gold from there.

I don't think that will help in my situation. I want as far as to reflash when PR 1.3 came out to resolve the issue. The odd thing is that it will work on Tuesday and then not on thursday and vice-versa. Mabye I should make two enteries, one for each day of the week.

EDIT: what is the difference between weekly and biweekly?

Biweekly.

Might have a bug. If you scroll back through the thread, you'll find instructions from shapeshifter to me, about how to post the alarm file. Then he can look at it and check to see if it has a bug.

Alternately, you can grep the wiki or forums for the script that changes profiles. When you do, schedule a command that changes profiles, and add to the top of it:

date >> /var/log/alarmlog

Make sure you make it writeable:

touch /var/log/alarmlog
chmod 666 /var/log/alarmlog

Then, every time the script runs it will add date and time in there. That way you can see if it ran but didn't change the profile or it never ran.

Also, might I suggest you schedule 2 events, say, one for 6 AM and one at 6:01, both changing profile.

I do, however, suggest you do the log thing, so we can clear it up. Sometimes my phone doesn't switch profiles either but I never found a pattern.

I keep a log like that for external IPs, because I hover from home wifi to work wifi and I need to home IP. I scheduled and hourly script that does

date >> /iphistory
wget -q -O - api.myiptest.com | awk -F "\"" '{print $4}' >> /iphistory
echo ------ >> iphistory

You can add the touch and chmod to the top of the script if you don't want to manually do it.

"the prefix bi- applies to the week rather than to the events that occur, therefore giving the sense of “every two weeks”. Since the term is also used in the UK to mean “twice a week”, it is ambiguous there. In British English, for the sake of clarity, it is advisable to use one of the synonyms instead."

Well if biweekly means "every two weeks" well that would be my problem. I took biweekly to mean twice a week. However, I think the author had meant "every two weeks."

Oddly enough, I'm an American English speaker.... Interesting.

Bug:

1. Create an alarm as "weekly", set the days, save event.
2. Select that alarm again from the menu, select "edit", then select "days" to edit the days for the event.
3. Application crashes to desktop.

I don't know any more. I installed alarmed, crash. I then started installing dependencies one by one, rebooting inbetween, and it worked, alarmed was up and running again. I thought I had it, but when installing the next app the bug manifested again for no apparent reason.

I'm at a loss and, until I get a bearing on this, no feedback. Very odd.

also possible to sent scheduled sms with this app?

yes.

(it's also possible to search this forum )

Did search...

in the thread you linked to are scripts written down, which i don't like. I was more asking for a GUI app which can do the trick. It seems that the scripts also ain't working for everyone.

But thanks anyway . . .

It's a great application and I'm really inloved with it. It rules my profile schedule during the week perfectly. But, for a newbie and non-expert on X-terminal commands, could someone be so kind to tell me the command to schedule for activating/deactivating the vibration functionality in N900? It usually happens to me that at night I want a "silent" profile but without vibration option and when I'm at work I want it to be in "silent" mode but with vibration option activated. Thanks in advance.
