I've released version 2.0.2 of the "Spirit FM Radio" app. See my sig for the details post.
Best support is for CM7 ROMs with the CM FM app. My app supports RDS data on TI FM chips now, and more basic functionality on Broadcom FM chips. Works well on my HTC Legend and Desire HD, and I think should also work on Click/Tattoo.
I tested with the 240x320 resolution on an emulator.
works great 100% thanks, though it could do with a better GUI
Works perfect on my HTC Tattoo/Click with CM7. The GUI should be polished.
The HTC radio app could be a good reference.
Thanks!
bluetooth??
great app, but why do you need my bluetooth on?
please remove this feature or let me select it in a menù.

radio is integreted on bt microchip, than when you active radio, you must active also bt
This is the right app I am looking for! Why should FM apps stick to headset? Now it is freedom from headset, only thing you need is something as antenna.
where can i find this app -??

look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13379669
Has anyone looked into this whole thing about there being FM Transmitter/Receivers being built into most Android phones(including ours)?
I was reading this article ==> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092719 and I was curious. I wonder if I could use this to broadcast my music from my phone to my FM radio in my old car...
Any thoughts? (and yes I did search)
The vibrant doesn't have a functioning receiving FM module, let alone a transmitting FM module. Our hardware is missing a few key components to have a working FM tuner.

Ok. So what prompted this question was my coworker has an Epic and has a FM Radio hack on hisphone. Thought the phones were similar enough but then the Epic is the oddball out of the Galaxies.
Thanks for the answer
Pretty much in the title. Are there any good navigation apps for the touchpad yet?
You mean ones that work with the built in multi core gps/gsm chip?

Ummmm I guess? The touch pad does have GPS right?
There's no gps/gsm chip, he's being sarcastic.... wifi only

maybe when android arrives we can use gps tether and google maps nav.
To be more helpful we're hoping someone can convert some older palm satnav app or write a new one that works via bluetooth. You can connect to a bluetooth gps receiver, but so far there's nothing to work with it.
Is there an app or process to have a FM radio app for Dell venue?
As there was one back for Motorola Charm which didnt ship with Built in Radio App (FM) in Asia sets
I don't think the Venue has a built-in FM radio. I have tried several apps, including one or two that are supposed to work with the Streak 5, and have never had any success.

thanks for the responce
but if I upgrate my stock rom with 2.3 rom posted here
will it help?
I don't think so, I don't think the Venue has the hardware for an FM radio.
The Venue uses a Broadcom BCM4329, which has:
Wifi 802.11 a/b/g/n
Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
FM Radio (recieve and transmit)
Unfortunately, since android doesnt have a standardized method of interfacing with the radip: there's simply no support at the driver level.
The Streak 5 has limited radio support as there was a hack that enabled it, but the S5 uses the BCM4325.
All other dell devices use the BCM4329 and only the SPro has support for it.
It might be possible to hack the Streak Pro's support back onto the V (as they both run GB and use the same chip),
I intend to attempt to hackport the SPro's rom to the S5, and perhaps to the V in the summer.
But I have no idea if it'll work, much less getting the radio to work.
Officially, the SPro is the first dell device to officially recieve fm radio support.

I finally took the time to look at this, and the link provided provides a working FM Radio app. Go figure. It works, for the most part. The link is to the English translation of a Vietnamese page. There is a link to FM Radio for Dell Venue, which is a rar file on mediafire (http://www.mediafire.com/?ob6ot26eey5m7dh). The Google Translate thing screws up the link, so just use the one I posted. Inside the rar is two apk's and a file called fm_hcitool. I installed the one called 20110824SFR-MM.apk (not the one called Streak Radio) and it turned out to be Spirit FM - the free version. I set the the audio method to fm_hcitool the band to European (I live in Germany) and the radio worked. I could only get it to come out of the phone not the headphones, but it was better than nothing. It requires BT being active, but it will turn that on itself. I am running CM7 (when I tried earlier, I was still stock Froyo, before the GB Rom's were available.)
Update - download the updated Spirit FM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059296. I still can't get it to go through the headphones, but other than that it works.

I tried the above on Stock Android
Nothing worked
All I want to know is how "fm_hcitool" works or how to set it?
I think you need a rooted venue for the above

Nothing worked when I tried on my stock rooted venue either. It works now under CM7 though. I really have no idea what the fm_hcitool file does. I saw the file in the rar file, and took a guess when I configured Spirit FM. I only copied the Spirit FM apk over to the venue too, not the fm_hcitool file. Maybe it will work fully with that on the phone, I see the Streak guys got their radio working by putting it in the /system/bin folder and setting the correct permissions. Maybe I will try that later and see if it changes anything.

It's the same as what I posted earlier. It works on CM7, except I can not get the sound to come out of the headphones, only the speaker.

I've done it before. It's great.
And the wonderful thing is you can listen to music when the radio is on and a call is in progress
The phone call uses the small phone speaker.
The muzick player uses the loud speaker.
And the radio ( spirit FM ) uses the earphone.
And.... They work at the same time together
By using Spirit FM, you can control the output sound.
You can choose where the sound will be play ( headphone or loudspeaker )

Just found this thread after someone reported it working.
In my handset there is no pre installed FM radio even I tried to install it but there is no suppo3 for it.
Please help me to solve this issue
Is it hidden? Did you try and search for it? For mine it won't play unless headphones are plugged in but I can still launch the app

The FM is intentionally grounded. It is impossible to enable them.
