I agree-only wish I could use it! I have OS version 4.1 on my brand new 8703(upgraded from 7250). Had been using Multialarm but it has been over 5 days and they have still not responded to my request for a reg code-now sending emails to them every 30 mins!!. Any day now it will say the trial is over and I will not be able to have autosnooze alarms in the morning! Am not switching the OS since everything is working very well and I do not want to eat up more of my memory-don't need an mp3 player and any of the other upgrades. If anybody knows how to get hold of Mobylo directly or their address then I would be very grateful.

I know I would happily be a tester. If they would still need some.

To change these, go to Options - Advanced Options - Applications and scroll down and highlight "BBSmart Alarms Pro". Select "Edit Permissions" from the menu and for all 3 permissions (Connections, Interactions, User Data) set the permission to "Allow".

This should correct the problem.

Cheers,

Thanks Neil

Apparently the problem lies within the song itself. I tried another song and it worked fine. So I tried the first song again and got the same disappointing results. That song plays just fine on my 8130, but will not play in this program. I even removed it and reloaded it. Still no joy.

Any other ideas?

Yeah according to the original thread it should be out within the week.

Give them time though. If it takes them longer I can only assume that means it will be all the better .

And since you already purchased the app all updates are free.

How does everyone feel about the newer version?

I think they did a great job listening to everyone's suggestions and problems.

BB Smart Alarms Pro - would like small change please

I think this app is great as I can silence the phone but still get alerts.

...and the defualt sound, Electric Piano is so annoying, best alarm to use for waking up. Customise option is great; got sound sample from the radio to remind me Radio 2 quiz in the morning -- excellent.

The only thing I would like to change would be the method of highlighting the alarm in the Alarm List view -- currently a very small top corner fill that's not that quick to identify what alarm you are selecting to edit, especially when several alarms that all show up green (enabled). I'd like an easier method to identify the alarm you currently have highlighted in that view.

Apart from that, really impressed.

Worth the $15 paid, although it was being given away recently with min $5 purchase on anything else..... but as I'd purchased a couple weeks earlier, missed out on that excellent offer.

Now, after trial period of their also good BBsmart Shortcuts program , deciding if I need to purchase?

Sorry Neil. I hadn't seen the new version so my request maybe addressed.

One thing though -- looked at your link for the 1.1 version to registered users and it's a jad file. I normally use the alx version to install. I'll see what happens with the jad file in any case.

Thanks.

JAD files are for OTA downloads. You have to go to the link with your BB, but only if you have a data plan.

Hi. I pointed my BB browser tat that link and it installed the 1.1 version and rebooted. I allowed the program access and then when I select it, I see the application but when I click the clock ICON, the Alarm List is displayed but then I get "Uncaught exception: java.lang.NullPointerException" and the app closes.

I am running 8800 with 4.5.0.37

Any ideas what's wrong?

I tried powering off then on again -- same problem.

I run it again and quickly went into menu and did force exit. The Alarm list is now displayed and no exception.

So I added a couple of quick alarms and looked at the curent alarms -- all seems OK.

Power cycled the BB and it's still OK, so loks like the 1st force exit cleaned up whatever the problem was.

So, will leave this dialogue here as it may help others. If you do experience the exception, run again and when the alarm list pops up, quickly press the menu key and select the force exit option -- bottom option. This worked for me.

...and the orignal requst I made is fixed as when you scroll through the alarms, the selected one text colour changes from black to white -- nice one.

Thanks.
