How do I select an alarm song without it playing?
First off I live in a dorm with two other people. Occasionally when I go to set my morning alarm I find myself needing to choose a new song (once I've gotten used to a song I can sometimes sleep through it). However upon selecting the song my phone can't seem to help but play the entire thing without ceasing, at a VERY loud volume; a particularly annoyig problem when setting an alarm at 11:00 at night. The silence switch doesn't seem to help and neither do the volume control keys. Any way to select an alarm without it playing the song you've chosen?
