VirginMobile HTC One V - does it have an FM Radio? - HTC One V

VirginMobile has just added this phone. Does anyone know if it has an true FM radio? I don't want to listen by streaming over the net.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi
Yes it has.
But you should have posted this in Q&A
regards
max

Forgot to ask. Does it come with a built-in radio app or does one need to use Spirit FM?

Inbuilt with Soundhound integration. Google would have sufficed though.

Just to double check: this is a VirginMobile phone, right?

Hi
Dont think that they use "custom" hardware - right?
So the FM is always available. The Radio app ist part of
the "stock" apps

OK. I'm getting one in a few days and will post back with findings.

are you getting the Virgin mobile? and is it true they dont allow roaming? -.-

I just got the phone. There's an FM radio in the VirginMobile HTC One V but there isn't an built-in app (that I could easily find so far).

If you have an icon for the HTC Hub, you can find an FM radio widget under HTC Essentials.

Found it in HTC Essentials however it seems to crash HTC Sense I'll have to take it up with HTC and hopefully they can fix it.

Same here. I have a rooted Virgin mobile us htc one v with the stock rom. Is your device rooted as well? I wonder if that might be the problem. It's frustrating because I know the one v has a built in FM radio. Have you heard anything from HTC?

Spirit works wonderfully with this phone, for what it's worth.

Yes, I have the virgin mobile version. Make sure to have headphones plugged in, they serve as an antenna.

Putting the FM Radio apk in system/app worked. So it does have an fm radio.

yes, it's passible to do. I've done it a few weeks ago. You have to S-OFF your Desire (a lot of tips in the internet you can find (Hint: Revolutionary)). After S-OFF, you should find a file called
Code:
Su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
put it into your SD card, and flash it from recovery menu (insall zip from sd-card -> find your file). wait a few seconds, and it'll be done, you'll have soff and root.
Revolutionary I think is the easiest to use to turn soff

[Q] Slow mobile data / patchy connections

Sorry if this has been done to death but I did have a search and couldnt find anything specific.
Basically I have had my One X for a few weeks and its all kinds of awesome, and before I bought it through Vodafone I checked signals at work through the web and it should be in the best area, but the data connection is really slow and I struggle to get a voice signal. At home is fine, but out and about is still alittle patchy.
I called Vodafone but they are as useful as a chocolate tea pot, so I thought I would come to people that know what they are talking about.
Im running LeeDroid 6.4, which I hoped would help, but not much.
Is there anything I can do / test to make it better?
Thanks
i was like u with ARHD ROM..try InsertCoin ROM

The only issue I have is that it sometimes takes my phone a while to connect back to the network after going through a 'dead spot'
but internet speeds aren't an issue for me. I am with Three UK
download speed sometimes goes under 1Mbpe with 5 bars signal

[Q] Off Center Camera Lens. Is It Normal?

I just noticed that the lens on my HOX is slightly off centred. Can anyone let me know if it's defective or designed that way.

Mine has the same issue but it doesn't seem to affect the videos or images at all.
Thanks. I don't know, it keeps bothering me that it's off centre. I'm gonna go bother HTC now.

It's nothing to worry about. I don't think I've ever seen a straight one.

Mine is not aligned either. It's slightly unaligned but I don't mind because it works flawlessly.

sorry for digging this thread but i´m thinking of soff my device which is working perfect for months except for this camera off center issue, so is this normal or you guys think i should send it to warranty ?
Well as people have said its normal and it doesnt affect pictures. If you send to warranty HTC wont repair it/will send you a device which also has an off centre camera. Also its not possible to S-OFF your device yet.
it´s not possible ? why ?

Compatibility

Is there a way I can get the apps from playstore that say not compatible? I bought Asphalt 7 but it only works on my dx2.

They are not compatible for a reason. Mainly hardware's fault.
its probably just an Android thing, like some apps work on Android 2.2+ and some apps will only work on Android 4.+

No its not. Firefox says incompatible but I download from somewhere else and it works 100. Same with other apps

Your question is fail on so many levels that I shouldn't even bother. Namely, an answer to your question is so thoroughly described over past three years that it can be found on almost every corner. Second, rom you quoted doesn't work that much that if you couldn't restore the rom you just use, the only place your phone would be appropriate for would be garbage bin. Third, totally unrelated in any aspect with the topic here.

Yes it does, but on the page you downloaded the apk there is a reason why it is incompatible. It is much better than it was before, but it is too damn slow on Desire that it looks like a joke compared to other browsers. I can't say what would happen on fastrr/better hardware, so that could be a reason too.

There was a thread last year with modded versions of SkyGo for non-supported devices. Initially it worked with a build.prop edit, but sky soon changed the apk to check for root, which can be hidden but not on a custom kernel...
