FM Radio works without 3.5mm Headphones. Depends on Hardware modification. The headphone actually acts as the antenna.
Other features are very much possible. I think a custom developed FM and BT apk will solve the issue
I have backup from some non-brand Chinese Android devices. I will test those and let you know.

Tested the FM app in my Galaxy SII. Unfortunately it couldn't find any FM channels. May be the reason is, SII does not have a metallic cover. The signal strength is quite good in my area.
I don't know why, even after plugging the headphone jack the app couldn't find any channels. But the default app found all the available channels in my area.
Have you tried any of those?

On GS2, FM and Bluetooth are not connected. It uses an Si4709 FM chip (which was removed for the US/Canada variants.)
My FM app can work without earphones/antenna and without low battery issues. Not sure about airplane mode but I think so.
But the above requires a rooted device so my app can work with the low level driver. Without root my app supports the Samsung API and thus inherits it's restrictions.
But so far my app hasn't been tested much on an S2, just my S. AFAIK, on CM7 my app has no audio, but other functions work OK.

Any possibility yet?

Forget about FM over Bluetooth headset though.

[Q] Alternate Bluetooth Headset For MW600?

Hi guys,
I'm using MW600 bluetooth headset on my X10. I change original headset with my Sennheiser MX 760. Sound quailty is very good. But I don't use MW600 with 2.2 & 2.3 custom roms
I connect it with X10. I start to listen to music. But I have short interruptions on music at various times.
Do you have a bluetooth headset is working properly with 2.2 and 2.3 custom roms?
PS: 3,5 mm audio jack is important for me. Bluetooth device must have this.
Sorry for bad English
Actually I have the same problem as well with my bluetooth fm transmitter using WB CM6. Never had a problem with bluetooth using 2.1.
Any solution to this?
Hi,
I use Trips 1.6.3 and when I have WLan activated I get interrupted bluetooth music. Without WLan everything is OK.

I get some problems on EWJet rom, but it is not same problem.
This problem caused from Sony's specially codecs As far as I've learned.
Solution of this: using original rom

Can you share your rom's link with me?
custom roms have some trouble with bluetooth headsets, because my MW600 works on stock rom, and also work with my computer, with AD2P support (the devise show the title of the song/movie)
Is everyone using MW600 with this phone? Nobody have a different headset
Hi NS_85,
I forgot to say that I normally use a Nokia BH-103 and also have dropouts:-(
Does anybody know a rom which has no bt problems with a headset.
Ralf
2.1 roms are really the only solution for now. You can use EWjet if you want something snappier.

I tried EWjet but I had another issue on it.
Do you use MW600 on EWjet perfectly?
Yes, MW600 runs perfectly on the EWjet. No skipping during music playback.

Which version do you use?
I tried it but I had this problem:
I pair my MW600 bluetooth handset with my phone. I open android stock music player, mediascape, winamp or etc. My phone returning to the previous screen when I press one of the media control keys While the phone on home screen when I press media control keys, screen loading again and again
media control keys do not work on EWjet.
The last one I used was EWJET 2.1.B.0.1 V001ex. MW600 was fine with it.
I am now on stock 2.1.B.0.1 though. Prefer when I am in control of the modifications
Edit: The problem you are experiencing is caused by that WP7 music player. Disable headset button control in it's settings.

I tried it but, it doesn't fix the problem. Which rom do you use?
I have a Nokia BH-505.
Used to have sporadic blackouts on Froyo, curiously much less with GB (cobrato 1.7.15). Happens every now and then, nothing major - do bear in mind that audio notifications will interrupt your audio stream and that this may be causing the interruptions.
IMHO this has more to do with the BT stack and the ROM than the headset itself.
I don't understand what you are asking for re. the 3.5 mm jack - we ARE talking about BT headsets, right?
Hope this helps

quite simple to replace the in ears with better ones. I heard the MW600 and the sound is not the best. My nokia sounds far better especially in the low frequencies.
btw. the problem ist mostly solved with current GB rom.

I have used different BT stereo receivers with it (both 2.1 and 2.3.3 stock):
MW600 works fine, but I don't see track info
Samsung MS3000 works, but make sure you turn the unit on before activate BT in order to connect automatically (this one lacks bass)
Nokia BH-214 works well, but it's replaced by BH-111
Sony DRC-BT30 works well, but I lost it recently.
Isn't it a known fact that Bluetooth and WiFi don't play well together? I seem to remember discussing this issue when I bought my first BT mouse (Logitech MX900) for my then brand new laptop...
Anyway, I think issues were solved by some firmware upgrade of mouse and an improved wifi-driver that addressed the issue of BT-interference. Somehow I think that changes to kernel and/or wifi-critical files may disrupt some of the "built-in" fixes for simultaneous wifi/BT connections, which results in erratic BT-behavior.
So, I think that issues are not really related to the headset rather than the internal bluetooth/wifi-stack. As for how to fix it... Alert the dev's!

[Q] FM radio recording?

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

CM7.1 and FM Radio: bluetooth on but no sound

Hello,
I flashed CM7.1 on my SGS2, then Seyah kernel and could not be happier with the results. Thank you to both teams behind these.
I am trying to listen to FM Radio but all I get is a message "enabling bluetooth", the BT is being enabled but then nothing - no sound whatsoever.
Two questions:
1) Can I disable the bluetooth activation each time I want to listen to radio?
2) Is there a fix or another radio app which is known to work for FM radio on SGS2?
Thank you for your help!
FM radio does not work, sorry. I use TuneIn.

Got it. I have a limited data plan, so TuneIn is no good for me.

[Q] Galaxy player 5.0 USA CM 10.1 FM radio?

Hi,
I'm currently on a U.S Galaxy player 5.0 and running CM 10.1 (jackpotvalvin) it's running pretty good, just wondering if anyone has been able to get FM radio working on any 10.1 roms? I installed Spirit FM however I haven't been able to configur it and get it working. Does any one know what FM chip is in this galaxy player? I configured the Method as Galaxy S Alsa/ICS as well as autodetect, Under Debug FM chip is set for automatic.
Please note I am running the kernal from the ROM not a alternate kernal.

Hmm I tried again but no luck. Anyone know if they will be putting back a native app for radio? I'm not familiar with spirit maybe that's the problem.
the same for me - spirit fm it doesn't work i only get a low hiss on speakers but i'm unable to tune to any radio station the signal level fluctuates from -100 do 0 to 55 to -50 etc... spirit fm works on original firmware(rooted)

Yeah, same for me.. glad to see i'm not the only one. I also noticed that after launching spirit, my bluetooth is switched off. I have to flip it back on (can't rememebr if I had to reboot). Hpefully it will be fixed sooner or later. I wish I could contribute but i'm not a developer by any means.

FM radio without headphones

Some time ago I saw here (I think) a patch that would enable the FM radio without connecting headphones.
The same patch was applied and working at AIX Rom (as long as you had very good radio coverage).
Now I can not find it here.
Any help?
Thanks
