Hi anybody know if there is a prog that lets you listen to radio.
do you mean radio as in internet radio or radio as in FM and am
if you mean the later then a GSM phone cant recieve FM and am analog radio it's digital and only listen on the 900/1800/1900 bands where no stations broadcast
but you can buy different cards think they are CF cards in general which recieve radio on pda's
thanks

Hi all, i am noob in this area.
My rom version is 1.72.00WWE
i have something called Radio Version 1.14.00, but i dont know what this radio thingie is about. Can i have radio?
Is any better rom ( patched, upgraded ) to my 2020?
radio stack == GSM radio module firmware == software to the device use to work as a phone
so, can i hear radio on my phone?
gsm == cellphone radio (digital signal transmittet on 900/1800/1900GHz where radio stations are usualy around 80Mhz to 110Mhz)
radio is much more your avarage FM music station
much like radioactive stuff dont play skyRadio
if you want to listen to FM/AM radio you have to buy a SD Card with FM radio or get a headset with radio
I know dcd a ripped a more recent radio from the Bell release... but I'm wondering... would this radio provide any benefit to Verizon users seeing as it came from a Verizon ROM? Would even work without the new PRI?
EDIT:
3.37.75 Radio: http://lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/titan/radios/Titan Radio ROM 3.37.75.rar THANKS DCD!

There is absolutely nothing in a radio ROM that ties it to a carrier or optimizes it for a carrier in any way over any other radio ROM.
I will post 3.37.75 here anyways.

thanks for all the hard work DCD

ya... i realize there is nothing specific to the carrier but it would stand to reason that the carrier did their testing based on that specific release so it could possibly have the best results on their carrier?
I dunno.. I'm just wondering ... will try the radio you posted tho appreciate it!
I have noticed very little if any difference in signal strength between alltels stock radio and the newest i put on. Going to the new one however did enhance the ability of my gps with alltel stock radio i wasn't able to get anything in my office now i works pretty well.
So is this Radio ROM decoupled from the VZW ROM update so I can flash it and still keep the DCD 3.2.6 ROM that I already have?
I am on 3.42.50 but am willing to try this Radio ROM to see if there is any difference for VZW users but don't want to screw my phone up with VZW crap that turns off my GPS and Data and all that.
Yea, I am asking the same question: I know what dcd said earlier in this thread but I think it need reiterating: Is installing this radio going to screw up anything for those of us using dcd's ROM?
Also, I'm using 3.42.50; and this is 3.37.75... Isn't this a step backward (as far as version numbers go)? So what would be the difference?
P.S. The 3.42.50 radio rom, who/where was that originally pulled from?

i believe it was ripped from altel, but i read that radios are NOT carrier specfic
Just installing the 3.37.75 radio without the PRI won't screw anything up.
The 3.42.50 radio came from the Bell Vogue Rom.
Radios are not carrier specific.
Ok here is my question. Who controls the version numbers? Do all the radio ROMs come from HTC or do the carriers themselves edit them (not to be carrier specific, just in general..) then publish them?
I guess I just want to know if they all follow the same version tree so that 3.37.75 isn't actually newer than 3.42.40/50, but we can't tell since the # is lower.
I am curious too Why would VZW release an outdated radio.....

My guess is that when they started testing this ROM internally, that is the radio which was available.
OK, so if anyone tries this new 3.37.75 radio with the dcd ROM please post your results... GPS still run? Any faster? Better signal strength? etc etc etc

is there a better way to test signal strength other than using the voice command and asking what its signal strength is?

its not an outdated radio - you cant compare the numbers of the radio from one carrier with the numbers of another radio from another carrier since all carriers arent using the same radios (even though they may be compatible with different networks)
For example, the XV6900 is newer than the XV6800 but it is far from being better and in fact has a crappier processor.

last I heard they shared the same msm7500 series processor. with equal specs. 6900 (touch) just had twice the ram.

I'm using it.. works fine... I was having probs with the new one switching to 1x mode and sticking there from text messages but haven't seen it yet on this one... all radios are fairly similar I doubt you can really tell too much of a difference unless u saw something bad happening with one of them.

Same processor more RAM how it is crappier? You might wanna check your facts before posting.

So Radio 3.37.75 seems in some ways more stable than 3.42.50 so I wonder about the version numbering. One real improvement is in bluetooth. With radio 3.42.50 I can't use the serial profile with a GPS receiver and headset profile at the same time. The headset profile disconnects the serial profile with in 30 - 45 seconds and if the connection recovers it's only for short bursts. With the new radio both my GPS and headset work great in parallel.
I'm also noticing faster GPS response especially on cold start. Either way I'm sticking with 3.37.75 for now over 3.42.50.
Thanks
Scott

My bad - basing info off of the sales rep in local VZ store - but I should have known better not to trust those guys (and gals)

What means radio version in roms ?

You can probably think of this as the RF (Radio Frequency) driver if you like, it is firmware (software for the hardware) that controls the way the device handles anything to do with RF, so thats wifi, gsm, hsdpa, bluetooth and GPS.
The main thing is, each radio version performs differently in different regions of the world, and also is dependant on your mobile provider. Performance being mainly down to voice quality, if you have a certain radio, and you have lots of drop outs, dropped calls and so on, its quite possible you need to try a different radio.
For instance for us in the UK, 0300 or 0321 is by far the best choice, in europe many people find 1600 or 1700 to be better.
Many people in Asia find 1800 to be best.
thx for answer
Any speculation as to whether the FM Radio in the AT&T 920 will \ could be enabled. If Nokia gets paid a cut of the Nokia music purchases I can see why they think disabling the FM Radio is a good idea.
Do any of the 920s overseas come without Nokia Music and\or have FM enabled?
This thread doesn't actually say that the rest of the hardware is in the handset (ie the wiring to the headphone jack as antenna for example), so maybe it is simply impossible:

None of the Lumia 920s worldwide have a built in FM radio. So no, there is no way for Nokia to "enable" such a feature since there is no FM antenna to begin with.
At least, the ones distributed in France don't have FM radio either.
WP8 does not support FM radios at the moment so currently I can guarantee you that there are now Lumia 920s which have it working. As for the possibility to enable it later on I can't tell you wether the hardware to use it would be there but it seems this is not really a priority topic for them given there are not that many people who listen to FM radio on their phones.
