I am attempting to write an application that automatically sets the Android default alarm based on some preset values determined by an alternate algorithm.
The alarm setting works fine using the ACTION_SET_ALARM intent, however every time I run the app, it sets a NEW alarm. I'm wondering if there is any way to instead have one unique alarm set to update every time the activity sets the alarm (so that there are not hundreds of new alarms in the Android alarm application). I will provide code excerpts if necessary, however it seems that this question can be answered without specific examples. NOTE: I am not using the Android alarm system that is intended for informing other activities of certain events, but rather the actual Android alarm that users will utilize to wake up in the morning. Here is a code snippet that explains what I am doing: Intent intent = new Intent(AlarmClock.ACTION_SET_ALARM); intent.putExtra(AlarmClock.EXTRA_HOUR, time.getCurrentHour()); intent.putExtra(AlarmClock.EXTRA_MINUTES, time.getCurrentMinute()); intent.putExtra(AlarmClock.EXTRA_SKIP_UI, true); startActivity(intent); Thank you in advance for any assistance! Some further attempts: I have tried to bundle the intent Intent.ACTION_EDIT with my intent and tried to specify the alarm local to the device, but I can't seem to find any documentation on how one would do this. Nor do I know that this is the way to complete my goal. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
