TreKing,

thanks for email. This is functionality of my application
http://android.hubalek.net/application/digital-world-clock-widget

Many users asked to add option to invoke alarm clock settings from it. As it
is not officially supported I found what intents calls standard alarm clock
settings. Then some users reported that it is not working on their custom
ROM (HTC Sense, Cyanogen, ...). So I started to build database of intents
what executes various alarm clock settings intents. Now I have about 5
intents and my users use it quite often (according Flurry).

Motoblur intent is probably last major one.

Have a good day
Tom
