I'll like to share how I fixed my non working FM radio for Owain's Floyo V4 on my X10 Mini Pro. As I do not have enough post count to contribute on the development section, I'll need to post here instead.
Problem:
FM Radio freezes at "Searching for channels" screen.
Solution:
1) Using Titanium backup, wipe all data for FM Radio app and uninstall it.
2) Extract Radio.apk from Owain's Floyo zip file (its found in /system/app folder of the zip file).
3) Copy the Radio.apk file to SD-card and use Root Explorer to move it to /system/app of your phone (Or you can also use ADB to do this if you know how).
4) Install the Radio.apk file using Root Explorer or ADB from the /system/app folder of your phone.
5) The FM Radio should now be working properly. In the event that it is playing through the speakers instead of headphones, press the volume button a few times and then quit the app. Replug in your headphones before starting the app again. It should be working properly now

For me is working, but that headphones trick rly works
Did you make full wipe before install rom?
I'm glad it was able to help solve your problem with the radio too
I did wipe my phone completely off all data before installing Floyo but somehow the FM radio issue still affected me. Someone else who was experiencing this problem suggested wiping the phone and reinstalling several times until the radio works but it seems like a drastic measure for fixing a radio problem...
So after using the Samsung Galaxy S II for over a month now I've had one complaint. In-Call Volume using the handset ear piece. It was "OK" in quiet places but anywhere else...way below par.
So, after looking around for several weeks trying to find a fix I finally got help from a well know dev (Entropy512) as well as using system/lib audio files from Designgears ROM 'Perception'.
So...how do you finally get your in-call volume increased?
First and foremost...Always backup whatever you're changing. Better safe than sorry. Just make a copy of your current system/lib folder, rename it something like 'backup_lib' and place on your sd card somewhere.
Option 1
Download this flashable zip, flash it in CWM, Reboot, Enjoy. (This zip includes some audio files from the Perception ROM, if for any reason DesignGears has an issue with this PM me and I will remove the zip. I'm only using the files to help others solve their in-call volume issue)
MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE FLASHING
Download the Flashable Update Here
I have tested this on three different SGSII's and all seems well! This is a NO WIPE flash, I do reccomend clearing your Dalvik Cache and Cache Partition though.
-Reboot into Recovery
-Scroll down to 'Advanced' and select
-Select "clear Dalvik Cache"
-Flash this update
-Reboot your phone and enjoy!
Option 2 (Incase the flash doesn't work or I am asked to remove the the zip file)
1) Download Designgears ROM 'Perception' Found Here
2) Open the zip file of your current ROM (doesn't matter what ROM)
3) Open the system folder and then open the system/lib folder (of your current ROM)
4) Next, Open the same folder in the Perception ROM
5) Copy the files listed below from the Perception ROM and paste them over the files in your ROM:
- lib_Samsung_Acoustic_Module_Llite.so
- lib_Samsung_Resampler.so
- lib_Samsung_Sound_Booster.so
- libaudio.so
- libaudioeffect_jni.so
- libaudioflinger.so
- libaudiohw_op.so
- libaudiohw_sf.so
- libaudiopolicy.so
- liblvvefs.so
- libmediayamaha.so
- libmediayamaha_jni.so
- libmediayamaha_tuning_jni.so
- libmediayamahaservice.so
- libsamsungAcousticeq.so
- libsamsungSoundbooster.so
- libsoundalive.so
- libsoundpool.so
- libSR_AudioIn.so
- libyamahasrc.so
*Only copy/replace the files listed above as they are only audio files. DO NOT COPY/REPLACE all system/lib files... You'll have unwanted consequences and you'll probably kill a puppy.
6) Now go to the Perception ROM and open system\app and find phone.apk. (Save a copy of your current phone.apk...Just in case)
-Copy (Perception's) phone.apk and replace the phone.apk on your current ROM.
7) After you replace the files listed above on your ROM, reflash your ROM and enjoy your increased call volume.
Note: If you don't want to reflash your ROM and risk losing any settings, you should be able to copy the files and replace them with Root Access and a file explorer, then Reboot your device immediately after. I haven't tried this yet so if someone wants to try and leave feedback, please feel free.
EDIT: Copying the files using a root explorer does work but may cause your phone to crash/reboot afterwards. I'd still recommend just re-flashing the ROM to avoid potential issues. Once again, make sure and make a back up so you can revert any changes if something doen't work properly.
I will try uploading a zip file with appropriate files so you can download but currently I do not have Designgears permission. This is their code and I don't want to step on any toes.
EDIT: I have tried reaching out to DG for permission but had no luck, if he asks that I remove the zip file, I will do so.
Known Potential Issues:
- When flashing over a stock/rooted ROM this update may cause the phone application to crash/force close. I have tried this update personally on every ROM I could flash and haven't had any issues. However, I have not tried it on the stock ROM. If you're on stock/rooted, please make a backup so if it does cause issues you can simply revert the changes.
Much thanks goes to Entropy512 for the help with solving this issue and Designgears ROM 'Perception'. Using Perception showed me that increasing the in-call volume was possible! (it's a very stable and awesome ROM as well )
***UPDATE***
Due to some people being a worried about flashing the update I have taken the liberty of making the backup files for you and making them flashable!
- I have made revert files for all of the major ROM's we currently have for our device. I did not include Perception because that ROM is where the audio files originated from. Below is the download links for the backups.
IF my volume fix does NOT work, simply download the backup for your ROM and flash it. It will revert all the changes my fix made.
- Revert_CM7.1_Stable
- Revert_H8s2_1.2.2
- Revert_Serendipity_8.2
- Revert_Stock_UCKH7
- Revert_UnNamed_1.2
- Revert_MIUI 1.11.4 v1
- If you are using Perception ROM you do NOT need the volume fix as this ROM has the files built in
As a side note, I have tried this on several I9100 ROM's as well and had luck with them all.
If this thread helps, please click the thanks button for me, I'm new to the XDA community.
Any I9100 ROM should work here for the libs - however:
Your mic will be screwed up for outgoing audio unless you change the Samsung Noise Reduction settings. (DG forced this in Perception, I believe he did it in an APK somewhere and not in the libs.)

I just tried a call and you're correct, the mic isn't working properly. Do I need to find the APK or do you know what changes I need to make? This is a popular issue and I'm hoping this thread can help.
Edit: I found some APK's....any idea which one would deal with the mic?
-CallSetting.apk
-Phone_Util.apk
-Phone.apk
-Settings.apk
Ahahaha, good thing I made a backup before pasting, but pasting the files in root explorer does work, however your phone will crash and reboot, but it is louder.
Doesn't work on the apk :v

Try copying the CallSetting.apk as well (use both). If you still don't have any luck with fixing the mic issue and you're using a file manager to make the switch, try re-flashing your ROM with the apk changes instead.
Make a backup before doing it so you can restore all your settings if it doesn't work for some reason.

Did you have to re-flash? Just trying to make sure my instructions are correct.
Did you need to add both apk's as well?
No, I just added replaced the files in the Unnamed 1.1.0 full update zip, ran an update via CWM, with only the phone.apk and microphone works.

Ok, glad it works and the kinks are worked out thanks for you patience and tests.
Thats awesome news. Low mic has always been an issue for me. Just wondering if someone can create a flash able zip that automates everything, if possible.
Great work guys.

IF I can get approval from Designgears to use some sources from his ROM I shouldn't have any issues putting this into a zip file for everyone. I've reached out to DG, just awaiting a response

Ok as many of you know DSP Manager has some "bug" wich causes it to crash when you installed latest CM7 6.5.8
When you go to either headset or speaker and you press Equalizer enabled, and choose any of the "examples from there" it will cause the DSP Manager to crash, and you can wipe data and cache however this will NOT fix the Force Close Issue!
A Simple But Detailed Instruction how to fix this is below!
(Turducken) Posted on how to fix this on odexed ROM's and it worked, he also provided some audio fix! Thanks!
(Deodexed ROM's)
However there is a easy way to fix that, and i know u want to know.
1.st open up ANY app that can be used to uninstall system apps
2.nd uninstall the app,
3.rd reboot
4.th use any root app that has acess to your system copy the app to system/app
5.th set the Permission's to the X stands for the bock/checkmark and o for an empty box!
Owner X X O
Group X O O
Others X O O
After you set this permission, to be sure that nothing will change, set the phone to r/o and exit the app
Now reboot your phone and enjoy a fully working DSP Manager!
Turducken said:
I honestly don't understand a thing he said.
How I fixed it:
(Odexed rom's!)
uninstalled included DSPMangager.apk and .odex from system/app
installed deodex version of DSPManager.apk from 6.5.7 to system/app (apply proper permissions)
removed all libs in the system/lib/soundfx folder
replaced soundfx libs with ones from
One Major Audio Effects Stutter/Noise Issue Solved.
This returns everything to the way it was in 6.5.7 with the applied fix.
I've had no problems since doing this, has anyone else tried this?
I included the deodex'd DSPManger.apk

Post removed.
you didnt thought i would take all credits by my own did ya
screw credits, i want to make our phone to what we want and fully functionable*
(like not as asus tablet) the sound is coming from one speaker "right one" only way to fix this atm is to root it, and i can not root mine as mine is newer verision and they changed "crypt key verision"
and asus would probably not fix this stuff, thats sad, because audio is horrible on speaker :/
be happy that we can get this fixes for our phone's
I got it working perfectly for my coolpad quattro 4g.
Seeing how my phone is a Metro PCS prepaid handset, I had CM7 on my old Metro PCS Optimus M and I never wiped that phone. I left it as is, it ran perfect for 2 years with CM7 so I never changed it. I went in and took out the DSPManager.apk from System\App and the 3 files from System\lib\soundfx copied them to my other phone. Backed up all my original files first of course. Installed the 3 files into System\lib\soundfx and the DSPManager.apk into my System\app folder, then installed the DSPManager.apk from my sd card onto the phone memory. So for anyone out there using Metro Handsets this might be a fix. Files can be downloaded from mikesdragonpages.homestead.com/files/DSPMetro.zip :good::good:
I originally posted this wondering if anyone had success installing the Stock Blur FM Radio on top of Liberty (or another ROM for that matter).
I finally got it working by pushing 6 files to various locations in the system folder and setting their permissions respectively. I originally had some trouble because several of the files already existed, and I left them as-is. I found that I had to overwrite all the files with newer ones (which I got from Eclipse 1.2).
If anyone else is interested in installing the FM Radio, I have made and attached two update.zip files that can be flashed from BSR. You only need one, so just choose the one you are most comfortable with.
1) FMRadio-update_system.zip
This will install the FM radio to your /system/app folder. (The app should show up in your app drawer automatically)
2) FMRadio-update_user.zip
This will install the FM radio to your /data/app folder. But the app may not show up in your app drawer automatically. You might have to use use a file browser to run/install the file "com.motorola.motofmradio.apk" in the /data/app folder.
Alternatively, if you want to place all the files manually, you can download either zip and put the included files in the following locations (required permissions are in bold)
/data/app/com.motorola.motofmradio.apk rw-r-r
/system/app/FMRadioService.apk rw-r-r
/system/bin/fmradioserver rwx-rx-rx
/system/lib/libFMRadio.so rw-r-r
/system/lib/libfmradioplayer.so rw-r-r
/system/lib/libfmradio_jni.so rw-r-r
Special thanks to nitroglycerine33 for the files. They all came from Eclipse 1.2
What's FM radio?
The Droid X2 has built-in hardware for an FM Radio. The stock ROM came with an app that let's you access the radio. This is really useful when you want to listen to live music (or NPR etc) and you don't have good 3G or wifi service.
There are no apps on the Market that work with the specific chipset in our phones, so the functionality of the stock moto software cannot be replaced by another app.
ignore this
I was also trying to get FM radio to work with liberty.
I downloaded spirit FM radio from market and.it works.
U have to go into settings and choose one.of the.Motorola hardware for it to work right but it does work after u change the settings...
---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 PM ----------
Only thing is I haven't been able.to figure out.how to adjust volume...
But it does work...open spirit FM...press menu..settings...audio settings...method...choose.one.of the.Motorola ones...best.I can do...seems to turn on.Bluetooth for some reason...
Thanks ash. I did try Spirit radio, but didn't get it to work. I didn't realize there were hardware settings. Maybe I'll try it again now that you told me how.
Anyway, if you want the Stock FM Radio, you can probably follow the solution I posted above. Let me know which radio you think is better, and if you try my fix, let me know if it worked.
Thanks!

You rock. Thanks for bringing back my radio
Has anyone had any luck getting these files to work in Molten v2? I get a parse error when trying to install. If I open them as a zip file and extract the APK's and install the FM radio icon is installed but when opening the app it either hangs or force closes constantly.

The zip worked for me with Molten 2.2.
How are you trying to install the zip?
You say tried to extract the apk from the zip. If you do that you need to put the apk in /system/app and you will also need to extract the library files from the zip and put them in /system/lib. Then make sure you set the permissions that same as the other files in those directories.

You need to use the Boot-Strap-Recovery (BSR) by Koush to install the zip. (i.e. Not the default moto recovery). If you are already using BSR, then perhaps you can re-download the zip file and try again.
BTW, These zips should work (in theory) with any current ROM on the X2, because the only custom recovery we have so far is BSR, and the updater script in the zip IS compatible with installation via BSR. Also, I doubt there are any ROMs that use different system, lib, and app folders than the ones these files are installed into. So there should be no reason I can think of that this fix wouldn't work on any of the current ROMs.
I've personally tested it on Liberty, hedwig has had success on molton (thanks for testing and reporting, hedwig), and it obviously isn't necessary at this point on Eclipse. Anyone should feel free to post their results with other ROMs.

And don't forget about the one that goes in /system/bin
It really is easier to just use the update.zip if you can get it to work
Hi all, I may be talking out of my hat but in my case I have (3, maybe 4 times so far) successfully installed the stock FM app using TB.
Before wiping and installing a new ROM I make a TB backup of both:
FM Radio 2.3.4
FMRadioService 2.3.4
And I simply restore both of these after my new ROM is up and running. Currently I have this working on Molten 2.1

Thanks for the info. It's nice to know that works on Molten.
Originally I tried to install just those two files (taken from Eclipse) on top of a Liberty install, and it didn't work. I assume it was because the lib and bin files from Liberty were not compatible with the apks from Eclipse for some reason (digital signature etc?). But perhaps that incompatibility is not an issue in Molten. Whatever the case, I certainly advocate using the simplest and easiest method possible to install the radio. If you can get away with using TB, that's great. The update.zip file is just a good, sure method that should work on any ROM.
I hope this isn't too late of a reply but I wanted to report on the above.
I have just installed liberty 3 and I used titanium backup to install the radio just as I did with molten 2.1.
It is working perfectly.
I will say that my backups are from the 2.3.4 SBF. I cannot say if backing the files from eclipse or anywhere else would work.

you have to be rooted, and that file explorer won't do you have to use something like root explorer or root browser. there is a thread that explains how to fix it without rooting, is not for the galaxy tab, but should work too.

Fix
I have found a fix for this problem. If you copy and paste the .clipboard folder found in sdcard0 (see attached picture) using a file manager app such as My Files or Astro File Manager to the sdcard0 folder you would be able to bring up the clipboard again. The path is /storage/sdcard0. Create a duplicate of the .clipboard folder to the sdcard0 folder and you should be able to use the clipboard again.
