[APP] Foxalarm (Native Alarm Clock) - In English w/ many options

[intermario_gr]

I get the same error message, I think it's because my f/w probably does not support autorun/startup.

Yes, the program try to automatically add a mount command on the startup.txt or startup1.txt to load the program on memory.

If your firmware is old, i suggest you upgrade it.

Figured it out preatty fast.

If you get error while installing the .fpkg file read this post

If you don't have startup script it's most probably that you will install this but the functionallity might not be quite good.
If you have some other startup than the one with startup.txt or startup1.txt it will certainly work.

1. you have to create a blank file in your mmc root called startup.txt
2. run the .fpkg file with foxsetup
3. follow the first post instructions (first left button and then ok or unique button)
4. now the patch is installed and in the previously blank startup.txt file you have a script. Now you can copy that script to your startup file, or rename the file to, let's say, foxalarm.lin and copy it to your startup folder (depending on your startup method).

If you don't have startup script rename the startup.txt to some-name.lin and manually run the file at each reboot of the phone (although there's no guarantee that it will work)

important: in both renaming cases open the file and add this line as the first line before all the other script code lines:

#!/bin/bash

ps: because of all the latest apps, startup script has become a necessity, so i suggest just like droopy to upgrade your firmware (in case your firmware doesn't have startup script)

damnit, i need to get startup scripts! but i figured out to create a blank .txt file and i got it all installed.
But that's not why i'm posting..For this morning and yesterday morning the alarm didn't go off!! Luckily I got up by instict both times, and this morning i set the default alarm for 15mins later, but managed to get up before it went off.
When i test the alarm, it works everytime!
What's up with that?

good

Wouldn't it also work if FOXALARM came with a service instead of a startup script? The service (probably very small in size) would run in the background constantly and would handle all alarm operations even those involving boot/shutdown sequences.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it would be better this way.

Step 1: Follow the guide in post 1 to install the foxalarm.

Step 2: replace the voice folder in foxalarm with the attached file below (content of the file is the english voice folder)

Step 3: copy the libalarm.so from the foxalarm folder into the My Program folder of the phone's directory.

Step 4: copy this script into your startup file:
mount --bind /ezxlocal/download/mystuff/MyPrograms/libalarm.so /usr/lib/ezx/lib/libezxalarmclock.so

Step 5: Reboot your phone.

It's done
Foxalarm will run everytime you reboot the phone and even after reading the memory card thru usb mode.

Thanks for great App Droopy,
I've gathered a simple Installation solution:
Just Install the attached PKG file
It'll run in english and contains english voices too (Thanks cordagz)
