I've installed CM7 and I don't like the FM Radio app, I can't listen to my favourite radio only because it is on 97,4 frequency and FM app works only for xx,1 xx,3 xx,5 xx,7 and xx,9. There is no autoscan option. Is there any other application that will work as old Radio FM from 2.2? Or is there any way to restore that radio?
Market?

I'm also looking for Radio app like HTC. But it seems no such app for CM7.
Go to the market. You wont find an app like the sense one unless someone has made one which I doubt it.

I know that sense blocks HID Bluetooth, like a wiimote and most Bluetooth key boards and all of that. As of right now I am rooted and am using the fresh evo Rom, I like the feel of the sense UI for now but would like to get a wiimote working as well as a Bluetooth keyboard can someone please point me in the right direction. And I am sorry if this has been answered but I really could not find an answer in my searches.

Right now, here's your only option.
Flash CM6.
Sorry. It's not that sense blocks it, it's not even included by HTC.
Thanks I guess I'll just wait a bit till CM6 has wimax working I live in a 4g area and use it all the time hopefully something comes out that is exactly what I need but for now i'll live without the Bluetooth devices

There IS a program in the market and 1 specific keyboard that will work, but it doesn't use the HID profile. The app uses SPP.
Probably NOT what you're looking for. It's not what I'm looking for.
BTW, hid stuff works on CM6. I flashed it just to try.
Pulled the apk from the Desire Z dump and tried to run it on my G2 but it failed , Wondering what else i would need to get this to work
i don't think it will work just like that. you need a lot of sense or such to make it work that's why it never made its way to cyanogenmod .. miui guys from japan know how to do it but i don't think they want to tell how to do it.
You can't run any sence app on anything besides the rosie launcher. You can sometimes install it but it won't work, the app is written deep in the framework.

Kernel most likely doesn't support it.

Something is definitely missing
Just to see what I got, I downloaded the attached APK and used adb to install it, and then ran “adb logcat” while trying to launch it. The result is that it force closes right away, and from the output of logcat it looks like it is definitely missing some sort of libraries.
I'd post the thing but it's huge. Essentially, though, it winds up crashing because it expects something to be present that isn't; that's likely this sense thing that others have mentioned.
I suggest reading (and following along with) the thread in the Nexus One forum about getting FM Radio going on that phone. My guess is that whatever those guys come up with should also allow FM Radio on the G2 once it becomes possible to modify the G2 kernel to get the relavent drivers running.
Like its been mentioned it usually requires sense and the kernel to support it. Only the sense roms on the nexus one could use it. Not a developer at all but from what I understand so far, it is what is required.

it's working on the n1.. i assume you will need root to use it so if u plan not to root then don't expect to see it. for now thanks miui for the help.
Isn't the FM Radio a system app? That means that we won't be able to use it until we have write access to /system. So if you want to be able to even install it properly, you need to wait until we have root. From there we have to disassemble and find all the dependencies on the sense framework and port them back in. Also, I am sure that you'll need to use some of the corresponding libs.
Now that we can flash kernel does this mean we can have fm radio working? I know u need to compile it and add the support for it.... was just thinking it would be nice to have the n1,inc ect.
very good question
very good question
I am interested too
confirm something please!
There is an FM radio in the ROMS that have Sense (Desire Z) that works with the G2. I have seen several people asking Cyanogen if it will eventually be included in CM6 however I have not seen a definitive response.
I don't see why anyone would CHOOSE commercial FM radio when they have 8GB+ for music they can choose. The radio < the internet and any kind of music you want. FM functionality seems like a non-issue.
Some people like to listen to the radio. I would love my phone to have the functionality. I flashed a sense ROM but don't like the feel, the only thing I liked was the FM radio. If CM puts it in his build I will be a happy man!!

It's called CHOICE for a reason. I agree, commercial radio pretty much sucks, but an FM radio can be handy in areas where you get no signal (maybe at work or school?) and want to listen to something other than the audio you have stored on your phone.
The Sense ROMs have the FM radio app in there. You can always just do a NAND backup and try one out.

There isn't just music on the radio, you know.
Clear channel has one radio show I like to listen to and the iheartradio app is crap. FM would kick-ass
have you tried the tune in radio app, its what i use when i dont feel like loading pandora
I tried the fm radio app in the virtuous rom, and it worked great. Tried copying the app to the sdcard and installing on cm6.1, but it wouldn't install.
I also tried tune in radio. Seems to work a lot better than iheartradio, but I guess they can't carry clearchannel stations.

I have tune-in but they don't have clear channel stations.
Now i just wish we could make an AM radio app. Considering the fm radio uses headphones for an antenna would it be possible to make a am antenna? Or is it also a matter of tunning to am stations?

At the time of posting this, CM6.1 (RC2) doesn't have an FM radio app.

In response to all the "but why would you want FM?" posts I always see when this issue gets brought up:
The big reason for me is my gym. They have monitors at the front set to different TV channels, and an FM frequency listed below each one. To get the audio, you just tune to that station. I'd like to be able to get that audio back (my old MP3 player did FM) but not so much that I'm willing to switch ROMs. Here's hoping it is something the CM team is working on!
My workplace is now enforcing no more streaming radio at the office. I have a Desire HD, and I remember back when I had stock Sense, there was an FM Radio app, because this device has a built-in FM tuner. But my latest ROM, Synerge's 4.2.1, doesn't seem to have a tuner app.
Now of course, I am not talking about streaming internet radio (TuneIn, etc.), but just a regular land based FM radio app.
Thanks.
There is an app on the play store called 'Spirit FM' Radio'. I have not tried it, but I always see it being recommended by other users on these forums, unfortunately it isn't free though
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Yeah I'm hoping there's a free option before I go down that route. I recall the FM tuner wasn't great anyway, so I more just want to try it out. Kind of surprised no free apps for a simple function that comes free on certain phones.
Unfortunately no, there's nothing. Not just synergye's ROM, but CM doesn't have an FM app too. It's there in CM7 Gingerbread, but wasn't forward ported since CM9.

Hard to develop
It's pretty difficult to develop tuner apps because google does not support fm radio.
So every phone manufacturer uses their individual hardware which moreover can change between different phone models
I have been looking for a different FM radio app for the moto g and I finally found on that has more features then the stock on. Apparently this one is included on the boost version but the play store say not available for any other carriers. So I figured id share the one I found.
It is call nextradio and this is version 1.0.357 which is the newest available as if now.
Enjoy!!!

Does not save station list and missing some frequency. Full of Advertisements.
No replacement for stock app
Country : India
Does this support RDS?
Why not just use Tune In Radio?
I have really found this app useful. Thanks a lot

I was searching for a solution to hear radio through the speaker too, and found the solution. Use this widget to toggle between headphone and speaker output! Works perfectly. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chislonchow.toggleheadp
If you are using Action Launcher you can create a shutter on the FMradio icon and place the widget there, so you have the toggle you need in one place.
Works great, without replacing the great stock app.

Great solution...many people were looking for it.....even on g+ and stuff...Motorola officially apologized and said the feature can't be implemented due to some em wave interfere thingy.... Make a tutorial on app forum

Thanks for the feedback I don't have an account on the Motorola Forums, could you post this for me? Thanks
The App (Next Radio) mentioned on Top is quite good but it didn't search for Even Frequencies in INDIA like 102.6, 104, 106.4 so on & so far.
Does any one knows FM Radio app that works on MOTO G {UNROOTED}.
i also triedd Sprit 1 - it app doesn't even work at least Next Radio App is playing Odd Radio Frequency Stations in INDIA like 91.10, 93.50 so on & so far.
Please mail me link or app name if you get to know:

Nice App, Interface is not good and does not save stations but good to have alternative which can play through speakers.
I am trying to make MOTO E's FM Radio app work on Moto G as it has option to play through speaker.
isnt it a shame that moto e has play via speaker option, but moto g doesnt
You can use the App Hf button.
Guys it does save station.
Go to Settings
Then interface
Use Basic Interface & Tap on your Favourite Station
Only Problem with this App is that Even Frequency Channel in India Like 104, 102.6 are Missing
Other wise it's a Great App For UNROOTED Users
Multiple station lists
I'd like an FM radio app to save multiple lists of frequencies/stations found based on GPS/Location, as I have to rescan in the morning/evening at the start/end of my daily commute and loose all stations....
