Silent except for alarm?

Is there a way to set the Nexus to sound the alarm clock, but mute all other noises, notifications, ringing?

Unless something has changed with JB if you turn the volume all the way down the alarm will still be audible.

Thanks! I guess I should have tried that. I always assumed that muted everything.

Right.. I'm not positive on the stock alarm (as was said it may still function fine with the phone muted).. I use Alarm Clock Ultra free (https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd&token=oW-c0M59) from the market and I'm sure it works muted. It's a great app, got it suggested in AC's apps of the week, and I have tried many great alarm apps but this is definitely my preferred right now.

The volume is seperated by ringer/notifications (can be made separate) media and volume. You can mute the ringer and still hear media and alarms. You might want to go into settings to verify the volumes of each

I think there's an option in the alarm clock application so that the alarms still go off in silent mode, otherwise they won't.

Thanks again!

Click on Clock.
Click on alarm.
Add an alarm time/day,etc.
Click on settings
Click: Alarm in silent mode.

Alarm will sound even when phone on silent.

Try it first.

Unfortunately, not a lot of choices for separating other sounds, notifications, etc.

I have a android zte majestic. It won't let me set a ringtone for my alarm. Its in a shaded grey writing. It just vibrates and I've been late for work!
