FM Radio on non-Sense ROM? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how I can get the deodexed HTC FM Radio app working in a non-sense ROM (I run Evervolv Gingerbread)? If not, is there any third-party app out there that lets me use the FM radio?
I do not want streaming radio, I want the actual FM tuner.
Thanks!

CM 6.1 comes with one.

Okay, so I downloaded the CM 6.1 release for the Incredible and copied over the FM.apk from it which, as I expected, crashes just like the default HTC one I adb pushed yesterday.
Are there any specific /system/lib or /system/bin files I need to push over as well?
I would really like to stay in Gingerbread and CM is still on Froyo.

I would also be interested in this.. I am also running gingerbread

Fm radio app

I noticed the htc sense virtuous rom had an fm radio app, but I prefer cyanogen mod rom, is there any way I can get that app installed on my cyanogen rom?
I tried saving the apk from the system app folder on to my sd card, but in cyanogen it said the app couldn't be installed. And I already had "install from unknown sources" checked off in the settings.
Thanks for the help.

This has been discussed already. It hasn't been implimented in CM yet. Hopefully in the final build.

This is typical you from looking at your post history. I really wish XDA had a way to block users. There are some that are just a waste of everyone's time.
edit : dug some more, and it actually does. If you go to the asshat's profile that you want to block, underneath the "user list" there is an ignore option. Sweet.
Please stop the flaming in here
You can understand the response though. CM is amazing... If you don't like it, stay stock and rooted...

Not happening...ever. The ARM6 just isn't up to the task, you need, at minimum, an ARM7. Yes, you can oc and it might be able to run flash at 806MHz or above but since flash isn't written correctly for the ARM6 - no amount of overclocking will help.
Maybe some one will make an emulator or rewrite flash (very daunting) to work for this processor. The iPhone has an app/emulator for flash so what are we waiting for?
Structure not Speed.
I wish we'd get at least Flash lite. damn ota will never come.
If I had a nickel for every time someone posted without searching.

This is what I got after a quick 3 second search of the forum. I've been using the flash apk and it has been working fine. I have a slide cyanogen 6.1.1 ; Cyanoginger 1.1; cpu set at max of 806mhz

Hmm, that's strange. I installed that apk and it force closes whenever I try to play any flash videos. I'm using CM 6.1.1. I don't see why this would be any different than on the cyanoginger...Is Cyanoginger sense based or something? Can someone else confirm whether or not this works on cyanoginger before I flash the new rom?

If you read the post, or even the file name of the apk, you would have seen that it is for android 2.1. CM6.1.1 is based off of froyo, version 2.2, it has something to do with the browser not accepting the plugin or something rather. It will work if you go back to cm5 but I doubt you want to do that
I've tried that apk on many roms and it only works on 2.1 roms. I need a version that will run on 2.2 roms such as CM6.1.1 or Cyanoginger. I've searched and tried a few different files but they either won't install or force close browser when loading flash content. I know it can run on the slide because it ran on 2.1 without a problem so you can't tell me the processor can't run it, sorry. Any help is appreciated, if you can only respond negatively please just hit the back button. Thank you.

I'm not trying to be negative, I'm just saying, the APK says it only works on 2.1, which is why it's not working on 2.2 for you. There is only a 2.1 flash apk out there. When I said our processor can't handle it, I was talking about full flash 10.1, which was only coded to work on armv7 devices. We can run flash lite, which is what comes bundled with our phones, but no one has been able to get that app to work on 2.2 yet, so it only works on 2.1. I don't consider it a huge loss personally, since most video sites have mobile versions with 3gpp streaming for mobile devices. Something in the browser was changed between 2.1 and 2.2 which makes flash lite not work.

Netflix

So the official netflix app is now out but only available on market for nexus s...I can't seem to find the apk but comments on engadget were saying the app worked great on their G2. Has anyone been able to find this? Is it legal to upload here since it is a free app?
Its on market now

That was the issue I had on the non official app a while back. May be because of your region

Yah, I was wondering if anybody's tried the Netflix app on his rom. And yes, it is. It's based off the G2 Gingerbread OTA, if I remember correctly. He hasn't/doesn't post on here.

Works on G2 Stock but not on CM7
Okay, so here is what I have found out. On my G2 it works on my stock (rooted) rom, but doesn't on CM7.0.0. On CM7 I get about 5-10 seconds of sound with no picture then it exits.
So there must be something in the program that looks at some OS thing. One thing I noticed with CM7 vs STOCK is that market.android.com sees 2 different phones on my google account even though I have only 1 phone.
So the obvious question is can we fake CM7 to be reported as STOCK?
This is weird. I figured it was some incompatability issue with 2.3 but apparently HTC Evo users running CM7 are enjoying them some Netflix. What gives? This app has been confirmed not to work on CM7 for the G2 and I'm running a stock build based off the official OTA and all I get is sound and a white screen. Hopefully a fix comes around soon.....
Yeah I just flashed the new Virtuous Fusion with Sense 3.0 and netflix works on the G2 perfectly. This version is Android 2.3 and I believe the only 2.3 rom so far for the G2 confirmed to have netflix working besides stock 2.2. So it can't be that the netflix app is looking at the OS version. I would imagine the requirement to play netflix is something developers will easily be able to figure out and implement on roms from here on out.

Sounds to me it's AOSP gingerbread it has a problem with.
Just installed and tried it out on my G2 running CM7.0.2. Same problem as others, works great, I can start watching, get audio with no video, then drops me back at the main page after a few seconds.

Virtuous v1.0.1 also doesn't work
Just check the Virtuous v1.0.1 ROM on my G2 and it failed to work.

[PATCH] Netflix Fix (Should work on most ROMs)

This patch will replace effectively the entire media library stack with a newer version, allowing Netflix to function on Gingerbread ROMs. The patch does not contain the Netflix apk itself, just the libs to fix playback. As far as I know, the patch WILL NOT work on Froyo.
Several folks on IRC confirmed the patch works. However, I recommend a Nandroid backup before applying the patch. Worst case, you can re-install your ROM to revert the changes. No wipes or anything are needed.
Enjoy!

In case anyone is wondering this does not fix the fps issue on the latest nightly with Netflix.

As I understand it FPS issues usually have something to do with the kernel/ramdisk.

[Q] Stock TW APKS on Task's AOPK?

Hi All.
I wanted to get tasks rom. My only issue is that I really like the stock tw music and video apps. Is there a way for me to get those stock apps on my new aopk rom? Btw, I know about the repository of the stock apk, but will they work on aopk, if i put them in system? Thanks in advance
TW and AOSP (CM, AOKP, Liquid, etc) use entirely different frameworks. Therefore, TW apps are not compatible with Task's ROM.
I wondered about that as well. It seems the only way I can get clear audio through bluetooth streaming is with TW ROMs. A brutal catch 22 for me.

I am pretty positive the bluetooth is working perfectly on Task's latest release (2/15 JB 4.2.2) Might want to check it out.

It's not that. I love Task's ROM. I have no problem with the functioning of the music streaming. It's just I still get a little distortion even with the updated versions. I can't figure out what the problem is.

The issue is the open source drivers that AOSP roms use instead of the drivers built just for the chip. This is something that always has and always will plague the open source roms. While the open source files work they do not work the best. The chips OEM holds back just enough to make sure their files will always work the best. It is just something you learn to live with.
