    [Verizon] 421 Clock on Sourcery and changing alarm tones

    I thought I would share my findings on how to change the alarm tone in Sourcery. I don't know if it is common to other roms since I haven't tested it, but I hope this may help. Background: I moved to version 455 and 456 and lost the ability to change the alarm tone. I did a lot of research...
