Does Desire HD have a FM transmitter?.. I think so.

So, Im just lurking around with the file explorerer on my DHD and then I found a file named fw_bcm4329.bin in the /vendor/firmware folder, and I thought that maybe this means we have the same chip as on HD2 that got FM transmitter capabilities? (Broadcom BCM4329)

The chip can do it but the software doesn't exist.

All the snapdragon chipsets come with a fm transmitter/recever

So, how do we activate it?

If there was any form of public datasheet for it, we could, but it seems Broadcom is not doing that. Probably need to ask them, and sign some NDA (and work for a major mobile phone maker)

But, have'nt someone managed to activate the FM transmitter on HD2? It uses the same Broadcom chip as DHD.
Anyways, I will try to send a mail to Broadcom and ask for the datasheet

Windows Mobile is based on Windows CE, i dare say the drivers for simlar broadcom chips already existed for that enviroment

Good luck with that. I was an HD2 user and was waiting for a transmitter software but currently it hasn't moved a single bit. I think I saw someone saying that they tried contacting them but they refused.

Have now sendt an e-mail, and im awaiting the answer. Probably takes som hours because of the time difference between Norway and the U.S of A

Any updates on this? I'd love to have the FM Transmitter
I always thought XDA-Devs could achive anything after my very long time using Windows Mobile

It would indeed be great to get access to this FM transmitter !
Any news?
Does some people are working on it?
What can we do to help?

Is there any news of the driver desi FM Transmitter for HD?
Sorry for the translation.

Amazing find! Would be excellent if we could use it.

But no news...Too bad...

Does our device have GLONASS ???

My question is on title itself.
Does we have GLONASS????
GSMARENA says so !!
In India GPS or GLONASS is better?
I had made a thorough search on internet.
There are many controversial opinions.
I want your opinions also...

Although it is not mentioned in the whitepapers (link C1904/C1905),
it is officially mentioned on this page: link.
Also, when using GPS Test (link), my xms sometimes does find Glonass satellites.
Those facts together, my guess is that xms does support Glonass (I have one from the Netherlands), although I would expect the signal to be much better than it is, using to satellite systems

Thanks for your replay & Links
My XMD locks location within 20-25 seconds in my area (Cold start), which is not bad, right?
Still my another question is unanswered!!

Why does it matter which one is better if it uses both at the same time. (I'm not sure how to check if this is actually happenning, but it should be and I assume it is because otherwise it's just a waste of hardware)

Just for the knowledge, Dude...
If GLONASS is better in India; how will " it's just a waste of hardware"
It will help others on taking their decisions.

Its not from your mobile. Its the location and satellite dude. If it detects Glonass satellite it will lock on to it, if it detects GPS satellite it will lock into it. And in India i haven't locked into any GLONASS satellite yet.

LeEco Le Pro3 OPEN SOURCE

LeEco Le Pro3's source code is open.
opensource.le.com
http://g3.letv.cn/214/36/85/lefoss/0/Le_X727_OpenSource.zip
will somebody make aosp rom for this device?
The link on Le Eco website is down.
There's a mirror

Nice news

we are all waiting for cyanogenmod or AOSP

Don´t I remember reading LeEco never does give away source code ???
I told them...they are wrong at least this time.....GOOD FOR ALL OF US :victory::victory::victory:
Correct...now we can have CM13/14 and AOPS.
WAIT! Why is model number different ???

A little more complete information about Leeco Open source project :
http://opensource.le.com/

why the model is x727 not x720?

They removed the source code from their side. I only hope developers got what they need.

My guess is that the x727 maybe for different RAM/storage, or maybe the US variant. I just look at the US variant spec and there seem to be some different in term of spec.

The only architecture specific "config" files necessary for building in the source package (in arch/arm64/configs) seem to be for msm8937, which is the Snapdragon 430. However the newest defconfig in the directory (msm-perf_defconfig) has the CONFIG_ARCH_MSM8996=y option set. This could be the real deal...

Wait, so that means hope of rom support back to square one?

If sources are released I'll definitely get this device and build AOSP for it.

Sources...? Great. I just ordered the phone.

I'm considering buying this device because I like the specs and the price point. I already have a Nexus 6, 6P and a Pixel XL on the way so even if it doesn't have any ROM/Kernel support I'd still like to take it for a spin.

Pixel XL is a weird one with the ramdisk inside of system, have you been able to root it?

My Pixel XL is at home waiting for me right now. I own and operate my own trucking company and I am on the road alot. I'm going to see what I can do with it when I get home. The ramdisk inside the system is a weird one for me. I thought I misread that part when I was doing some earlier research about it.

ROMs won't have a problem, system root won't either but systemless stuff is useless on Pixels.

No, I meant that it looks like they're the right sources.
And on top of that... the changes from CAF kernel sources are very minimal. Porting CM to this should be a snap.
I'm very tempted to buy this on the flash sale when it goes on sale in the US...

That's great news!! Thanks for clarifying.
I just signed up for their $100 rebate available for the Nov 2 flash sale today myself. Only $299!!

Nexus 5x DEAD

Guys, since the nexus 5x won't be supported by Google anymore...is it better to install another Rom or stay on stock?

The 5x is no longer supported?

There's still one month left for official support. It says no guaranteed security updates, telephone or online support after November 2018. https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/4457705?hl=en
After that, you may stick with any LineageOS based ROM.

Question NFC on RM8 PRO+ CN

Hello to every owner of these amazingly beast
I received mine few days ago from giztop but I can't find anything to enable NFC mention to giztop about it that manufacturer and ad I bought said NFC YES, still no response...
Anyone know how to solve that?
Really pay good money for the phone and is shame not to have that function.
Please PM me
P.S Amazing 165w charger and SoT

As far as I know NFC is only available in global version

Actually the NFC only deploy on the Global version. Even you have a Global ver, that is not available in China.

Thanks for the info. To make it clear, if you bought CN with 165w there is no NFC. If you change version to global can you have that function of NFC? Also do I have some benefits switching to eu or global version?
Thanks for all the info @CrazyMoney
On the screenshot I found that file on system apps, but can't find any other app or something install to enable nfc

Noop, The Chinese version does not have NFC hardware. So it doesn`t work.
