Hi all,
Need your help guys.
I need an apps which can play audio from our device (Galaxy Ace) to radio frequency.
Do this kind of apps is existing? Please kindly help me find this.
Thanks in advanced.
Hi,
I think fm transmitting needs a hardware abillity not a software one.

That requires hardware not software and our ace do not have that kind of hardware a very few do ...
You could use something like this : Wireless FM Transmitter.
Does anyone know if it has built in FM reciver? And if so what app can be used?

Although best app to use for radio is TuneIn Radio but you need Internet access for it to work.

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.
The Nexus 4 thread is here, for anyone interested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963623&page=13

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.

Thanks !
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.

If those are the only drivers you need let me know. I can build you a test kernel.

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.

why rubbish in this forum? Your thread here AT&T LG Optimus G Dear moderators be careful
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.

Maybe you need to change the firmware. H818P and H815P have FM radio initially, but the volume is very low.

In my opinion we have to decompile FM Radio apk and look inside to make volume a bit louder
Can someone plz post the FM radio apk so I can try it on my T Mobile US H811 G4? @wolfgart mind giving it a shot?

I'm surprised that no one managed to solve this issue until now - by explaining how to edit the relevant file / uploading a new FMRadio APK file.
They managed to solve the FM radio volume issue on v10c update.
