not surprisingly, few if any 3rd party FM radio apps do work on SGY.
the stock FM app is kinda crappy in that the RDS data is not visible enough.
one needs full access to all RDS data, of course.

Try TuneIn Radio... its the best radio app on the market... You can listen to local Radio Stations and International Radio Stations too... Its Easy to use... and Powerfull... So go on and have some fun \m/...
Downline: It needs Internet to access Radio Staions... But its worth of it...

that's the difference between FM radio apps and radio apps.
theres lotsa streaming stuff around but I was talking real FM radiowave 100 MHz +/-
Has anyone tried my app, Spirit FM ?
Latest free version is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?v369y5839c7dgoz The Unlocked version has RDS.
Does this use a Broadcom FM chip ? If so you may have to enable Menu->Settings->Debug->BC 4330/20780 for low level (root) mode.
Working or not, if someone sends me a debug log I can tell you more.
Use Menu->Test->Email->Logs and after a few seconds. enter "Galaxy Y" in the email text and press send.
And is the FM really mono ?
Thanks !
I tried but it didnt worked I have sent the log tried on hybrids 4.0 and stock rom

I presume the stock FM app works, so I'll examine it to see if there's a new secret to be learned.
Sometimes it's just one little modification.
I saw the RSSI values were negative, but I presume an earphone was plugged in for an antenna.
I would also be interested to know if you can start the stock FM app, then Spirit, and see if it works then.
-------------
I'm searching through my email now and have found several people have sent me logs.
At least one says that it's working and I see the RSSI values are good.
So,... hopefully there is just some bug to be fixed or configuration setting we need.
I'll post again when I come to some conclusions or get an idea.
I've gone through my emails and 2 people have reported success, in February and March.
They were both using stock unrooted ROMs and set Audio->Method to "Samsung SL".
So, on ROMs on which the stock FM app works. I think my app should work with that audio method and Debug->FM API set to "OEM Proprietary".
While in the Debug config, you may as well enable Debug->Power Aud Foc Off and Debug->Unmute Aud Foc Off and restart the app. But if it works now, disable them and see if there's any difference.
As of a month ago or so, AFAICT, nobody with this device has made a purchase of the Light or Unlocked versions.

With the advent of root+CWR for the thunderbolt, many people will be flashing custom roms or CM (I'll be flashing CM7 once slayher pushes it out). In doing so, we will be loosing our app to utilize the FM radio function of our phones.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a third party app that does the same thing, or if anyone has plans to port the HTC version into it's own apk to add to other roms. I found an app in the market specifically for FM radio, but it's incompatible with the Thunderbolt.
Thanks

I honestly haven't tried it, but this is my theory...
Why wouldn't the original APK work? If not, the EVO undoubtedly has an app for this?

It might not work because it may depend on libraries not in the APK itself.
I tried the Fm radio app. But I dont use it since you cant stream it thru bluetooth. Try using the app called TuneIn Radio. It does live radio from wherever you want.
CM7 for the Incredible has an FM radio app. I would think CM7 for the Thunderbolt would too.
hi,
i have made a new version of the radio app without headset and play also in airplane mod inspiret from here but with new app version from cm7 team, this app dont crash when mode the stations...
i have test it on froyo and on cm7 rc1
THIS IS NOT A RECOVER ZIP
so pleas install it in /system/app and dont forget chmod and reboot.
no warranty, this app could damage your phone.
thanks to yipyipyip
Update: Now also play in airplane mod and removed a little bug.

Oh come on, it'd be much worse if you didn't have any downloads. That would then mean no one is interested.
I have it installed, and it indeed isn't as crashy as that other version. So you get a thanks from me.
How this app working? I pushed in system/app with adb but when i open the FM radio..it saying: FM radio is loading, please wait. And that`s all.
i really read a stable FM client.
bundle with CM7's very buggy. i suffer alot of FC, not response, worst case to reboot unit to get FM back.
Hope this ver can be improved.
thx.

hi,
try to clear the cash of the fm radio app.
No problem here, works perfectly.
I would hit thanks button, but there is none in Tapatalk.
Thanks, Still need some sort of antenna but at least I can get rid of the stock music player.
works fine
thanx-a-lot
Works great! Still need an antenna though. So i just cut the jack from an old pair of headphones to make a small antenna. 2 stations with out antenna, all with the jerry rigged antenna. Has anyone thought of opening this up to add a small loop for an antenna?

Thank you for this app. I tested it both on CM7 (nightly) and Froyo CEE (deodexed).
Until now, all works good.
I think about a strange behavior: if I plug out the headset during listening radio, the radio doesn't close but stays in status bar. I know that it can receive signal without wires...but the signal is 0, the sound output also. So where is the benefit?
Can you make a version that require always wired headset?
P.S. here is the radio. It is an install pack.
I have good reception with some stations even without any wire connected. So it's perfect app for me.
This is a gread App with imho a big drawback:
can't change volume, when screen is locked.
Any workaround for this issue (under official Froyo)?
It's not work when install another MOD. after CM7 CR1.
I reinstall CM7 RC1 again.
Thanks capnkillem, for make ANT from speakerphone jack.
So I am not a huge user of the FM radio on the Droid X2, but it can be handy now and then. I have noticed that the FM radio did not work with CM7 but a little google searching and there it was. Spirit FM Radio. And it is working on my cm7dx2 and the only thing not working is the volume. How can this be fixed?
when installing it, go to settings and switch settings -> audio-> method-> to motorola2 instead of cm7 and it works.

I have used that before when I was on liberty
try one of the other Motorola choices
I forget which one I had to use in order to be able to control volume but it IS possible
if I get a chance when I go on break I'll look into it if you haven't figured it out yet
good luck!

Anyhow, I went back and checked, and yes, I was having volume control problems... I.E.: No volume control.
I e-mailed the developer and sent him the requested information. Here is the setting to make the Volume Control work: Set Settings->Debug->BC 4330/20780 to "Enable" and reboot the phone. I have confirmed this works. Now off to purchase the app... Too bad it's $9.99. :-/

Hi,
I would like to present my first Xposed Mod. I'm uploading it in the hope it's useful to someone as well as me
Basically all it does is raise the volume when Waze is talking, and then lower it when it's done. This is really only useful if, like me, you use your phone to also play music at the same time (in my case, I use PowerAmp) where I've found the output of PowerAmp significantly dominates the voice that Waze emits. This is designed to fix that.
Please do let me know if any comments/feedback. The project is also open source: https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-waze
Thanks!

I yet can play music ( Gmusic or Web radio) using waze.
I use feature named "play on loudspeaker"...
Your module boosts waze volume?

It boosts it compares to other applications that are playing music. It raises the volume to 100% when Waze says something, then lowers it back to normal when it is done.
If you are playing it through loudspeaker I imagine this won't be a problem for you, but when you connect to to your car via a headphone cable then it's a problem for me (I don't know about others).
Does it clarify it?
Is it possible to create a mod where Waze does not automatically close itself when left in the background? I am aware this is intentional by Waze when there is no GPS movement and in the app is left in the background. The problem is, where I live is plagued with standstill traffic jams and I prefer to switch off my screen, allowing the voice guidance to do the work. The next thing I realise, Waze has already turned itself off and I had been driving way off-course without even realizing it.
This has been my number one gripe with Waze - would be absolutely great if you could implement this in your module. No pressure, but just a suggestion

I set the minimum target version to 19 (Android 4.4) because that's what I was running at the time. Here's an APK that has it set to 17 (Android 4.2/4.2.2), so it should work on your phone.
Please let me know if it does, and I can provide this for general release.
Thanks!

I tried to reproduce this with no luck unfortunately. I saw there are other complaints of this but some users report that they're not seeing this. Can you give me a little more detail on how you know it's intentional? That could help me undo that logic if I can figure out what it is.
Is there any chance Waze is being killed by Android? Which device do you have?

I'm on an Xperia Z1 - it's rather unlikely that it is killed by Android with the lean amount of background services I had.
But, I think I have the answer. I noticed that I greenified Waze, so I'm likely sure that is the culprit, but I appreciate your time taken into helping me look into it.
It is possible using this below 4.2.2? I have 4.1.2 and using Waze same like you, navi with a music from tune in or Google music.

Hi
I've got this exact same problem with iGo. I use poweramp connected with audio cable in my car.
The navigation instructions are way to weak compared to music.
Do you think your tweak could do the job? Or is it specially made for waze ?

@jayshah
Hey man, wanted to inform you this earlier regarding the issue I had with Waze automatically closing - and the real reason was that it wasn't getting a GPS lock. Now it's not the phone but rather that in the city, there are many overhead highways which block the GPS signal, and we do have long traffic jams and intersections under them which naturally would cause Waze to close after a period of time.
If it is possible, could you include an option for Waze to not close itself? The intention here is once that I travel to open skies I can then continue to contributing without needing to check on my phone.
I was wondering if it was possible to add a setting for the volume adjustment. While this app works for me, it makes waze too loud in comparison to the music. Rather than raising volume to max, I'd rather play with it and find an appropriate level.
Great mod. Is there a way to get this to work with Google maps navigation instead of Waze?
I was so excited when I saw this earlier today!
Sadly, I think the real issue is just the volume output of my phone. I already have it set to max to listen in the car, and all this does is drop it down to 15% when the Waze announcement is over. :crying:
I'll definitely keep an eye on your module, though, to see what other goodies you might come up with.
Support on android 5.1?
Hello,
I have a car stereo "Avin Avant-2" which runs on Android 4.1.1.
I use Waze, but the sound is much too low to understand the information.
I discovered your application, but I do not know how it works because I have no icon on the screen.
I installed the version "4.1.2-XposedWaze" because it is the only one that wants to settle on my car radio.
Can you help me use it?
Thank you

these app u mentioned are about sound so they should not do anything with radio
check if u flash anything else related to radio like basebandor something?
if u get crash for radio click send report and then click view system logs and take screen shots of error logs.
this can tell me more detail about ur problem and hopefully to solve it
:good:
I had an issue recently that the FM radio app won't play any sound. Later found out through Google that it was caused by the Google Now any screen 'Ok Google' setting. Once that was disabled, radio app worked properly. I hope that's what's happening in your case.
