[SOLVED] FM Radio for ICS ROMs. - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all! I'm really quite pleased with the performance of ICS on our Desire Zs, though I really am quite missing with a feature I use of my phone, the FM Radio. I know there is Spirit FM, but I don't want to spend money. I tried extracting the FM Radio apks from 2.3.x ROMs, but it won't get installed. Any other solutions? Thank you!

As far as I know, there is no FM radio for ICS yet.
I got SpiritFM (bought it for gingerbread) and with andromadous does not work...

sad to see it not working. I think its because of kernel implementation, but u should try to ask for support from the developer cause u bought it! Thanks for ur reply btw!

FM Radio on any Rom possible?

Hi,
is it possible to install the Sense FM Radio on a non-Sense Rom?
I tried installing the PirateRum HTCApps-package but it didn't work. Do I need special apps installed before installing the FM Radio?
I hope somebody knows how to do it!
I would also like FM radio working on Froyo and would respectfully request that the more capable among us work their magic.

[APP] Stock Froyo FM RADIO

couldn't get it installed (e.g. reset permissions, etc.) .
if anybody else can get it going, holla.
P.S. got it from the EVO 4G forum.

I'll give it a go!
There is a problem parcing the package????

If is a parcing error you usually have to download on a computer and move it to your phone then install.
I don't think the g2 has been shown to have a FM radio chip inside. Has it? If not tune in (aka radiotime) will work for most major markets.

the phone does have a FM transmitter and receiver....
it's just a matter of getting it on
NAND unlock can't soon enough
APK's not valid, only contains MAINIFEST.MF
FM radio won't be accessible until someone implements it in a custom ROM, like Cyanogen did on the N1. perm root is needed to get the drivers working, etc. it'll happen at some point.

that's what i feared.
If you pulled it from the evo then it's not a 'stock' froyo radio. It's the fm tuner by htc, and it probably requires some sense frameworks to function. Not to mention it probably requires kernel changes.
Sorry to disappoint...
And if I'm not mistaken, isn't the CM fm app a modified version from the MIUI roms?
I'm not sure if it needs much from Sense. I read a week ago that a group got it working. I also read that it was gonna be part of cm6.1.
This was from the Nexus threads.

Did you say.... TRANSMITTER?
I'm so excited if it actually has a transmitter, I didn't know that

I have not read the kernel sources.
is the radio uncommented? If so, it will work.

Yes, yes it is.
Has anyone had anyluck with this since PermaRoot... I cannot get any data connection at work and I miss my Radio?
It will get figured out prob once CM 6.1 stable drops. It's definately the Kernel!!!! I have a nexus one and it's working thru bluetooth somehow. I can play thru the headphones or the speaker using the headphones as an antena...bluetooth must have to be on to connect the kernel to the app. Not sure but hope it helps!!!

I know for a fact it has a transmitter because I installed the Sense ROM on my G2 and the FM app worked.
Theres a difference between FM receiver and transmitter, transmitter is broadcasting pretty much sending music you have on your phone to say your cars FM radio
So I'm assuming you guys dont mean transmitter?
Would be soo awesome if it can transmit!!

Yeah, I agree. Nokia smart phones have this feature for awhile. HTC should consider it.

HTC Input for cyanogen 7

I was trying to find a working version of the HTC Input keyboard with Cyanogen 7 because I really don't like the stock keyboard. Just wanted to share that I found one, not sure if everyone already knew or not but I thought I may as well just in case.
here's the link
The version that works is the High Res(Froyo/2.2), I haven't tested very much but it seems to be working fine.
As a side not, anyone know if there is any way to get the HTC Camera app working on cyanogen? I miss the effects etc. but am loving CM7 at the moment
(N.B. I am using CM7 Nightlies #4)

Because HTC wasn't nice enough to share the source code for the FM radio with the developer community. So the only way our developers know of to turn on the radio is to power up the whole chip, which includes bluetooth. Without the small amount of proprietary HTS code we are helpless to turn it on by itself.

according to my newsfeed, though, the desire z source code was fully released a few days ago. Was the fm radio source code not included?

FM Radio in ICS

Hi,
I am not sure if this is too early to ask..but i dont see FM Radio in any ICS roms..i tried both LC and VA roms. I also tried installing spirit FM Radio from market but its not working in ICS.
Any idea if we can run fm radio in ICS?
btw many thanks to LC and VA for such awsome ICS roms..

Miui has it.

The FM radio is having issue but I think you can use a radio from the market which might work
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium
FM is on the to-do list, but there are other issues that take priority. Once all the camera bugs are out, and BT is fully functional you should see it appear in some ICS roms.

Please, someone bring FM Radio to ICS!!!
