Hello
RDS works on my smartphone (froyo 2.2) but not with my 5.0 and this is a feature i miss
Is there anyway to add RDS to my 5.0 that doesn't require using wifi or 3g??
Spirit Fm works on my international G70 and adds RDS without internet connection.
Spirit doesn't seem to work on US version (5.0), wifi on or off.
After checking out that app, i'm left with the impression it's a "hardware" issue and not something correctable with software. Oh well, i do really like the native radio app - it just would feel complete with RDS!
Using the app FM TwoO, the RDS is working fine (but the app is not very user-friendly).

Awesome - thanks
Only irritation is having to move back and forth from the favorites folder.
Does anyone know an app that can "EQ" the "radio" or "all system sounds"??

DSP manager works well, but I found that I think it conflicts with GrooveIP. I don't use an equalizer enough to care, so I uninstalled it. It did work with the native player, Cubed, and native FM, when I tried it.
Thanks Tcat
Will have a look at that.

Hi folks !
== modded APP for FM radio on the defy ==
The FM radio of the Defy, only work with the "ConnectedMusicPlayer"...
There's not a single FM app on the market.
AFAIK that's because of the lack of API. or closed source of motorola's API.
based on excellent droid2 radio hack by "slayher".
this app from slayher works out-of-the-box.
The added-value of my version is that it will work even in flight-mode, and without headset.
of course, expect crappy reception without headset . put a metal wire or some stuff on the jack !
And I don't understand why FM is disallowed in flight mode, when WiFi is allowed ... that beats me ....
the new app is modded with apktool, signed with "Auto-sign" from "Dave Da illest" so i bet it is not official signing
should work on other moto/FM phones too.
yip
XDA is awesone ! can't have done anything w/o the hackers here !
no warranty, this app could damage your phone and (more probably) bug because I'm not a skilled hacker and made a dirty hack.
Reciving without antenna quality is really bad. Catches signal almost only "from hands".
yep, it is bad, but if you stick some metal stuff on the jack it is way better.
Also you can turn the phone around, the position of phone is important for receiving quality, especially without antenna.
I did this because in rare occasions, I would have like to listen radio ( forgot the headset ) and could have managed a home-made antenna, or I was in a area with good reception.
I hate it when you know it should work, but the limit is the software.
the "flight'mode" feature is perhaps more useful. that was a nonsense to prevent it. FM is a receiver-only...
Does not work for me. Still wants the headset plugged in, either it doesnt start
Edit:
After rebooting it is working.
So, thank you for sharing
U should delete original app/apk first, seems like this one was not installed.
Hi,
How do I delete the original apk?
I have android 2.2.1 3.4.2-145
I'm new in andoroid.
thanks
2.2 ? I don't know if it will work. it has been tested on 2.1 only I think.
fedorfl is right, seems like the new app is not installed.
What is your original app ? do you have a defy with ConnectedMusicPlayer or something else?
You might want to backup your original apps somewhere first. These are not available on the market, and not easy to get on internet.
After reboot, works well.
Thanks.

thank you .
am on 2.2.1
and never worked without the hedset at allllllllll
no sound or anything..till i plug it in
and my house is 500m away fromthe Radio station. still did not work
thanks...
Just one thing left to be done
Hi yipyipyip,
Thanks a lot for your modified version! I like very much the fact that the wired headset is not required anymore. Mainly because if the USB cable is attatched (usual way to have your phone charged whilst listening to FM radio for hours), it is enough to have strong stations sinthonized.
The only thing I miss now is: whenever an A2DP connection is found to be active, all current sound souces (MP3s, notifications, etc.) are routed to it. Would it be possible to have the same behaviour implemented here? I mean, if either the sound is currently being sent to the speakerphone, or through a new button, dedicated to bluetooth headsets, perhaps?
Thanks, anyway.
Regards,
Carlos
Hi,
Really thanks for this app.
the only thing is that ir seems I'm the one who has the app to close (hide and sometimes crash) when I edit one channel's name. And from that time on I can't use that channel anymore.
Do you have the same issues? Can you help me?
Thank you, bye!

flight mode
Great app, thx
But it doesn't work in flight mode
Just found this thread & thought I'd give it a go - works fine on froyo 2.2.2 on the Nordic 3.4.2-177 ROM.
I needed the headset in to get a signal but picked up the stations easily & sound works fine in loudspeaker mode.
Thanks
Can not install on my cm7 beta 6.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App

there are some stations i'd loke to listen to wich are not covered by the original app :-/
something like a world receiver??
or is it possible to modify the program itself??
tnx
does this work with latest cm7 ?
Can SGS2 do FM radio recording? Do we need an app for that too?
I've been searching for an app which records FM-Radio for two years now (for my HD2) without success. Now I've got an SGS2 with the same request.
Please give me a tool which can record FM-Radio :-(

Yes, an app for FM Recording will be very useful. Is they any app like this available in the market?
Have you tried Tune in radio pro?

No.
I'm porting my FM app to Galaxy S and it should work on S2 also.
Reading through the service manual for the S I see it says "FM Radio with RDS / real time recording". But there's no such function I can see in the stock FM app.
To record digitally, you need FM audio in digital format. Most phones use a simpler, more battery friendly analog method.
AFAICT the Si4709 FM chip output appears to be analog only. Perhaps some ADCs could be used to digitise.
No call recording either Sigh! And they call these smartphones
I thought if I download some fm radio apps from market I'd be able to listen radio on my atrix! But it seems I can't listen local FM..So I can't listen to radio on my atrix?
Hello,
The Atrix have the radio chip but it's not enable.
That's why the radio App can't work.
Regards.

Oh! btw Does the CM7 comes with the fm radio? (maybe some hacks can enable the fm)
The FM radio is physically disabled at the hardware level. No roms (e.g. CM7) or software hacks can fix it.

[Q] I need help with getting Froyo stock FM radio on my Cyanogen Mod7 for LG optimus one p500.
-Is it possible to install this FM radio on Cyanogen Mod7, and how?
-Alternatively, is there any FM radio that is equally good and installable?
Please help as I don't like the cyanogen mod7 FM radio.
Idk whats wrong with cm7 fm radio,but if u dont like it,u can try spirit fm from market.
And yes stock fm radio cannot work on cm7.
I can confirm that Spirit FM does work quite well, though it's not pretty. The one thing I miss from the stock radio is the widget - neither the CM7 radio nor Spirit have a widget, which is unfortunate. Are there any solutions to this?
One irrotating thing wit cm7 radio is use of bluetooth -more battery consumption..as of now stock fm can be used only on stock lg based roms

Stock fm radio also turns on bluetooth without informing us,at least cm7 informs us.
Thanks for the reply.
The reason why I don't like the cyanogen mod7 FM radio is because it does not have auto scan, no volume control bottom, and cannot save more than 5 radio stations. Am not critisizing here, I am just used to an advanced stock FM radio and finding it difficult to settle for the less. Will try the spirit FM as suggested and will get back to you. Thanks again for being prompt. However, cyanogen Mod7 is sweet.

Thanks guys. Spirit Fm worked just fine.
I love the roms based on CM9 and AOKP but they all seem to lack FM radio.
I know Spirit FM exists, but it is pretty buggy and seems to have high battery drain.
SO my question is why is FM radio so hard to get on these roms

FM Radio drivers are proprietary, as a result it's difficult to get the correct inputs in and direct the outputs out correctly, thus the bugs with Spirit FM, etc... Unless someone in the CM team manages to write a fully working open source FM radio driver and app, it's quite unlikely that there will be native FM support in these ROMS. Never say never, but given that it is even lower priority now that the Spirit FM app works, I wouldn't expect it soon.
ah thanks for the explanation.
oh well miui looks pretty good now and it has fm, once the sort out the bugs it will be good.

The ICS MIUI version is built on Samsung Stock, that's why they have working FM radio since using the TW FM Radio app means they don't have to deal with trying to make it work on AOSP.

Would installing the FM radio app from backup taken via Titanium Backup when the stock S2 ICS 4.0.3 ROM was loaded on my phone work?
