[Q] Any Suggestion Radio App Without Internet - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

My Hand-phone Samsung Galaxy Wonder original Android 2.3.6 have Radio Application without internet.
Now have update to Android 4.2.2 but I can't find in Google Play Radio Application without internet.
Have someone give me a suggestion?
I am from Malaysia.

Hi there Malaysian. Welcome yo this community
You can try spirit fm. Try search it on google. It is work fine to me

I am using Spirit UL now, but I still can't hear any channel of the Radio.
Beside Spirit FM Unlocked do have other Application?

Oh, really? You sure you plug your ear phone
I think this is the best apps. I think you should open app > settings > band > change to 200Hz. Tell me the result

Really? What version did you use? I use version 2013_05_08. And i think, what is the same as band i talking abouy is regional band. Try to change it to world 200KHz. And the audio, mine is automatic. Just fine for me to hear fly fm, or hitz fm, or any channel.

Under settings choose regional band. In there you will find the frequency step settings.

[Q] direct switch 2G / 3G

Hi, would you know a widget / application that could switch between 2G/3G directly, without asking the user to select the network on a settings page?

Managed to get that on the Hydr0genMod rom via the power control widget that came along with it.

same thing with "widgetsoid", only a shortcut, despite it seems to be a great app !
edit: I just read on android SDK doc that the function to use to set the value of choosing 2G or 3G is readonly...
So the answer to my question will be "no" until an Android version of the framework has got this functionnality available in its SDK.

Possible Galaxy Nexus Volume Fix

If we can figure out how to get this phone into diagnostic mode (or MODEM modem, DM Mode, etc etc), you can set the volume higher in a program thats used for programming phones calls qpst without needing any apps. This setting is different than anything located in android and will actually raise the volume of the phone but to do that first we need to get it into this mode. Most people have already tried the regular samsung codes and nothing is working. Come on devs help us out here. The programming codes have to be somewhere in the phone but no1's figured it out yet.
Nexus phones have never had any diagnostic or other hidden menus. Just dont exist i think. All has to be done in code changes.

That's where ur wrong. You are most likely thinking of the gsm version of the phone. I'm talking about the CDMA version like the one from Verizon. The nexus s 4g from sprint had the ability to go into diag mode by the same key combo as phones like the epic 4g. So I know theres a way since pretty much every CDMA phone has a diag mode. The only one I know that doesn't is the iPhone on Verizon but that's a different story
The only hidden menu iv heard of so far for gnex is something to do with radio. Procede with caution and of course the usual warnings apply if you start fiddleing with stuff you don't know what it does

If your main concern is with music being too low, you should try poweramp. It has a preset in the equalizer for louder speaker. IMO it's leaps and bounds better than volume plus. Otherwise wait for supercurio to work guys magic.

I agree, the developer website has a link to his program for free, either go to developer's website from the Volume+ (Sound Boost) marketplace link, or google "Volume+ v1.8.1.0 Released! | AndroidAudioHacks".
My settings --> Sound Settings --> Enable Speaker Modifications
My settings --> Sound Settings --> Enable Virtual Room Effect
My settings --> Sound Settings --> EQ Settings --> Good Quality
My settings --> Sound Settings --> Volume Level --> +8
My settings --> Sound Settings --> Base Enhance --> +8
My settings --> Sound Settings --> Virtual Room --> +4
Makes a big difference, best of luck.

Well its being worked on to fix volume in kernel code, ie latest franco kernel.
But the app equalizer or volume+ technically are real solutions. They just tie into the system audio api and increase it since google opened up the audio api for anyone to use starting in 2.3. Thats why these apps are now possible.
IMO, with my limited knowledge on the subject, radio hacks/mods are totally unnecessary. Everything that needs to be done to alter audio output is available at the kernel level.

No need to close the thread IMO; Only thing that seems proven is that most Optimus G's, including ATT's, have no stock FM app included.
FM was touted some time back, but I've been finding it hard to find an Optimus G variant with working FM. Korean F180 perhaps ?
Any schematics out there ?
If the FM receive antenna pin is connected to the wired headset jack, then FM should be possible, just as it is on the ATT HTC OneX LTE w/ S4 & WCN3660. (OG has 3660 for Bluetooth & WiFi, right ?)
Could someone try my FM app here and send me a debug log ? I'd prefer to see a rooted device logs, but stock is a start: http://d-h.st/UwH
Use Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs and after 20 seconds or so, press Send, or get file from /sdcard/sprt_debug.txt .
If the antenna pin is connected, FM should be possible, but this may require a custom kernel at least.
My interest is more in the similar Nexus 4, but I have enough debug info on it so far, at least until someone enables FM in a custom kernel. We don't know if Nexus 4 antenna pin is connected yet.

That's not too surprising if Spirit doesn't have root/SU.
If you want to send me a debug log, use Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs and press Send after 20 seconds.
A log won't give me too much useful info though, unless Spirit has root.

I did allow Spirit root privileges. I sent the email off with logs. Attached to this post is a screenshot when I open Spirit, to help you if needed.
If I go to the debug menu (3845#*970#) then WCDMA-only, there is an FM radio test, but it seems non-functional. I attached a screenshot of it as well.

The positive includes the usual FM controls in the ALSA audio driver, and a virtual APPS_FM directory which is common too.
There is no sign of radio-iris or radio-iris-transport.ko kernel drivers though.
So at minimum, a kernel with those drivers enabled needs to be loaded to see if FM can work and the antenna pin is connected.
It may be possible to flash a ROM from an Optimus G variant that supports FM. But I have no idea if that's possible without bricking the phone or creating other problems.
If anyone finds info on an Optimus G variant with FM (F-180 ?) please post. A ROM dump from such a variant would be useful.

Apparently the Japanese variant, the LGL21 I believe, supports over the air TV, but not fm... Any chance a system dump of that could be helpful? I don't have this model, but I could see about finding a dump. From what I've been finding out it seems no model supports fm radio out of the box.

I doubt it will help the cause of FM, but you never know. I'd be happy to look at a system dump briefly, or a debug log from the free version of Spirit, using Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs. ( http://d-h.st/pnT )
BTW, somebody finally got a kernel with FM drivers loaded on a Nexus 4. The FM chip "works" just fine, but RSSI is always 0 or negative, which usually means the FM antenna pin is not connected. Which means the N4 can't have FM.
And this might even imply the Optimus G doesn't have usable FM either. Somebody could try that N4 kernel or a similar one, if it's possible to share kernel without bricking.
From a practical perspective for me, now that the N4 seems "semi-proved" to have no FM, I'm not really too interested in the Optimus G at this point.

Would be great, but I don't have this phone, so somebody with the phone needs to do testing.
Here's some info from the N4 thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963623&page=13
There is only one configuration I've seen work on devices with the Qualcomm S4/S4+ SOC and Qualcomm WCN3660 FM/BT/WiFi combo chip:
- radio-iris driver compiled into the kernel.
- radio-iris-transport driver built as a loadable module.
Building the transport driver into the kernel doesn't work, for whatever reason.
MANY devices, even those without FM, now have a /system/etc/init.qcom.fm.sh shell script file which mostly does an insmod on /system/lib/modules/radio-iris-transport.ko .
My app, or a system/root portion of the framework or whatever, does this to activate the V4L driver:
"setprop hw.fm.mode normal ; setprop hw.fm.version 0 ; setprop ctl.start fm_dl"
You could also do this, from a root shell:
insmod /system/lib/modules/radio-iris-transport.ko
Or run the QCom FM init script in /system/etc .
...
BTW, with radio-iris loaded (in kernel), but WITHOUT radio-iris-transport loaded (as a loadable), a /dev/radio0 V4L access pseudo-file is created. But trying to use it generally results in a crash and reboot of the phone. Android drivers are often written badly, and crash like this when "unexpected" stuff happens.
I think the same happens when the transport driver is built into the kernel directly.
...
Once both drivers are successfully loaded, you can try my free app here: http://d-h.st/pnT
With a wired headset plugged in for antenna, and when tuned to a strong station, the RSSI at top left should be over 20 or so. Zero or negative likely means no FM antenna connection, like the N4.
Hey Shelnutt, if your still willing to make the test kernel, I could probably test it out.

Not sure why people don't realize this. It takes built in hardware to have radio. The E980 does not have it. Fairly certain the other variants don't either, but I could be wrong. If it did the LG would have listed it as a feature.

Almost every phone has FM circuitry built into the FM/BT/WiFi combo chip.
But on IMO way too many phones, the FM antenna pins(s) are grounded to disable any hope of using it.
In cases where the pin(s) connect through the usual few components to the wired headset jack, the OEM or carrier may not provide the app, and/or various lower level software pieces like libraries or BT stacks with an FM API.
The Optimus G originally did not have FM radio (though early reports claimed yes); it was disabled in hardware, same as the similar Nexus 4.
But the schematics made it look like a last minute decision, perhaps to use the same production line as the much more popular Nexus 4. But some later variants came out with FM enabled and with an app.
If you run my app and send a debug log, we can get some better idea. Latest free version is here: http://d-h.st/vCj . For log use Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs and press Send after 20 seconds. A log from a rooted phone is infinitely preferable for this.
I've seen a file listing of a G2 that shows a reportedly working FM radio.
I sent you logs from e988 just now. Please check possibilities over fm.
Thanks in advance for your effort.

You sent from the paid Unlocked version, so I hope you are a customer. I can't find your name or email in my order list though.

I don't approve of "testing" with pirate copies when I provide a free version that is more than sufficient for compatibility testing.
And phones move off of my support list when the piracy level for that phone seems high. Leaves a "bad taste in my mouth" basically.

Thanks for helping.
Turn Bluetooth on and try this September 2 test release of Spirit Free: http://d-h.st/f6D
It supports the new Broadcom FM API on the leaked Android 4.3 for HTC One. This phone, and the new LG G2 seem to be using this new API.
One result is that the Bluetooth "UART" that Spirit uses for low level access is always in use, even if Bluetooth appears to be off.
So unless you turn Bluetooth off, reboot and use ADB shell to manually kill Bluetooth processes, like btld, bluetoothd and/or com.android.bluetooth, this UART mode won't be available. And the Broadcom FM API is the only other way on this phone to access FM (at this software release anyway).
LG MAY have disabled the FM API. Even if not we may still find the FM antenna pin is grounded, rendering it useless.
I saw logs from rooted LG-E986, LG-E980 & LG-E988 and they all showed the same.
If it appears to work, look for RSSI signal strength values at top left of 15 or higher, when tuned and with a wired headset plugged in for antenna.
If it works, audio could be the next obstacle.
Here, I tried sept 2 version and it gives Power Error as SU: 2 FM: bc

As I wrote also on my thread:
Thanks, I have new logs from 2 people and they both show the same.
This phone DOES have the new Broadcom BT/FM stack with an updated API. But the FM part of the stack has been disabled, so there is no FM app besides Spirit that has any chance of working.
But, because there is no new style /system/lib/libbt-hci.so file integrated, as we see in AOSP for Android 4.2+, the only access method is via "HCI UART".
So that means Bluetooth must be off. AND, on this phone/stack, it appears the BT stack ALWAYS keeps the HCI UART open/busy, likely to better deal with the new Bluetooth Low Energy stuff.
This same problem happened on AOSP Android 4.0 ROMs like CM9. In that case though, the BT stack was Bluez and with BT on, Spirit could access the chip via HCI.
The only option here, and we may only need to do this once to test, and maybe verify the FM antenna pin is grounded and FM is impossible, is to do a low level kill of whichever Bluetooth process is keeping the UART open.
Something like this, from adb shell, with Bluetooth off and freshly rebooted, might work:
adb shell
su
killall -9 btld
killall -9 bluetoothd
Then, start Spirit.
Wow this adb stuff out of my league.
Please someone explain how to to that?
adb shell
su
killall -9 btld
killall -9 bluetoothd
help needed as there is chance of running spirit here.

If you run my app and send a debug log, we can get some better idea. Latest free version is here: http://d-h.st/vCj . For log use Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs and press Send after 20 seconds. A log from a rooted phone is infinitely preferable for this.
I've seen a file listing of a G2 that shows a reportedly working FM radio.

I sent you logs from my E980 on the same day but forgot to follow up with a note here. Didn't seem to work in any event but perhaps the logs will help.

Sent sept 7 logs to mike. Hopefully next version will work.
He is only one developer of its kind. Feels like, he is working for public while companies against buyers.
Salute to such person.:thumbup:

A lot of stock ROM remove things like "killall" to save space, but plain "kill" is usually still there.
So try this:
adb shell
su
kill -9 `pidof btld`
kill -9 `pidof bluetoothd`

[q] fm radio app needed | no root

Hi Guys,
Does anyone knows a Radio FM App other than Default Moto G APP that works ON AIR & doesn't uses MOBILE DATA WITHOUT BEING ROOTED.
Let me tell you that i have already tried "Spirit2: Real FM Radio 4 AOSP" & "NEXT RADIO APP'.
NEXT RADIO APP works fine but the only problem with this app is that it doesn't tunes EVEN FREQUENCIES in INDIA like 104, 104.8,102.6,106.4 etc etc.
Guys Do post link if you knows such an app so that i can download from there or upload the same on your google drive
What's the issue with moto radio ?........ Why u want another app...... As u already tried Spirit2 best alternative of default radio......what else you want in a radio app??
Spirit or Spirit 2 is the BEST FM Radio app PERIOD! I've used it for many years. The stock app isn't even in Stereo. I bought a Moto G LTE and am rooting it for the SOLE purpose for FM using Spirit FM.
Now on that note you CAN use Spirit 1 UNROOTED. Get in touch with Mike Reid here on XDA.

Spirit2 works fine on my MotoG test phone, but it requires root.
Spirit1 works without root. The latest 1130 release has a "MotoG detection" fix and should work on some models that it didn't before.

Why i want another Radio app?
Good Question .
Dude i want to switch Radio Channels via my default Headset.
It is possible via an App "Headset Button Controller" & third party radio app.
This experiment works fine with Next Radio App but the only problem in Next Radio App is that here in india it doesn't tunes EVEN FREQUENCIES channels like 104,104.8,102.6,106.4 etc etc
AND when it comes to Rooting, i fear a lot of it as i never ever rooted my Phone & neither my friends have knowledge of it.

Okay..... Download latest version of Spirit 1..... Possible no sound ? problem coz my sister ? use spirit 1 latest version on her non rooted moto g XT1033.... Issue Possible due to some previous version and it doesn't required any special settings to tune ? radio on spirit one thing more If you want to control radio through handsets then follow this setting..... Go to Setting➡UI➡click on media button pause/play➡choose seek up/preset up...... Now you can control radio frequency by pressing handset button ones or twice depending upon whether you choose seek up or preset up...... Hope it helps......
It worked. Cleaned up lengthy post. Purchase the unlocked app. Also responds to headset button.
In free nothing works as in dev thread may be link outdated. Moto OEM is defaulted in automatic audio settings. Unfortunately Motorola settings don't work for moto g phone.
Working settings:
*Band Any, for India keep North America for wider band reach (any band works for me 90+khz range).
* Settings >Audio >
Digital XZ2
Sony Z2
Sony Z2 Alsa
Sony Z/QC Intent
Sony T/QC Intent
Hit thanks if worked.
The above combinations are for informational purpose only contact developer for appropriate settings.
To me sony z2 sounds the best. All the best.
