All I can tell you it's that it's a wi-fi, bt, fm SOC called WCN3990. I don't have a spec sheet to know more about those and in the kernel build there's no info about actual dB limit.

It seems that the blue angel BT transmit power is rather weak for the build 3900 stack.
Does anyone know if they have reduced the transmit power by software. Which build or version do you guys recommend that supports A2DP?

First of all, I want to say Hi to everyone in this forum (because this is my first post).
Not only transmiting. but the 3900 stack also weak in searching bluetooth device near you. unlike the xdaII.
can anyone help?
Really interested in the artemis due to its fm radio and Gps....what's the Radio like?...Is it anygood?
I tried the radio on the o2 atom and found it rubbish is the artemis any better?
Also does anyone have any screenshots of the radio app in action
Cheers
FM Radio
Just got my P3300. I have to say after 7 PPC Phones this is by far the best. In regards to your question, the FM Radio is great. Very sensitive and sounds good through the speaker. However, the biggest downfall is that you have to have the headphones plugged in to the USBExt port on the phone. They apparently hold the antenna. The app won't even start unless they are plugged in. This is a major limitation I hope someone finds a work around. Apparently there is a USBExt to 3.5mm jack adapter but I don't know if this will trick the FM Radio software into starting with out the supplied headphones.
Anyway, hope that helps.

Ahhh thats good to know ...even more tempted now
You dot happen to have any screenshots of the radio app in action at all do you?
Thanks
The Radio performance is quite good, one thing I really like is the ability to set the radio going on the channel you want, switch off the Artemis and carry on listening - certainly a power saving feature. If you need to look at a screen shot try see the image below, there are other features such as sleep timer etc, but this really isn't a purchase decision to be honest - Mike
Does it come with 2.5mm or 3.5mm or others for the audio?
Neither, see bwallis post above! the audio is routed through the mini USB OR A2DP Bluetooth, this works very well, but the radio still needs the earphones plugged in as they are the aerial - Mike

Thanks for your information. Can I use BT headset to enjoy the radio instead of the wired headphone?
I don't think so - I have tried the radio running with the device conected via A2DP to the cars system, the Artemis Radio plays through the wired headset while any other noise is routed over bluetooth through the car deck. Even if you managed to get the audio routed to a BT headset you will still need the wired phones plugged in to get the radio program to actually work - Mike
Yep.. if I'm not wrong, the software BlueCast can transfer ALL sounds (incl ones from your TomTom and Radio) through A2DP. But in order for the Radio to work, physically plugging in something into the miniUSB port is a must.
Anyways, does the package come with a mini-USB to 2.5mm jack? or is it 3.5mm? I'm currently using a 2.5mm cable with mic.. and was hoping to use back the same if I were to get this Artemis..
Thanks
FYI, the 3.5 to USB adapter does not work to allow FM radio with your own headphones. It pops an error that you need the headphones plugged in to use the radio. Until a hack is found, you must plug in the supplied headphones.
db
erm do you actually need the headphones to be plugged in, in order to get the RDS/TMC info traffic for GPS softs like Destinator6?
Don't think it does RDS/TMC
is there any register hack that will start de fm-radio program ??
Hi fellas.. Just realised from one of the reviews that the mini-USB connector is shaped differently than the standard symmetrical one. Are they compatible?
Thanks
I confirm ... They are compatible !!!

Hi there!
Anybody knows if the FM-radio has RDS support??
PK
RDS yes but only for the radio station name, nothing else is used - you get the station name when it is transmitted and your headphone leads can pick-up the data - Mike
Hi!
OK, does this mean that AF (alternative frequency) is not supported?

Does this require any special trick ? In my case I can't see any station names ? (I can see them on normal radio). I am using the standard headphone attached.
Im trying to get the radio on using a Blue tooth head set, but the phone asks for the wired headset. Has any1 a solution to get it on without using the headset?
There is a registry key 'Headset Connected' = 0 or 1 or something similar, sorry cannot remember what it is - I think its under the HTC keys in HKLM..
It didn't work for me when I tried it without the wired headphones connected and I don't I don't have a bluetooth headset to try it out with...
I don't think you'll get any reception anyway since the wired headset acts as the antenna but good luck all the same
WoW, thanks for a fast reply.
this is your registry key:
### AUDIO BOOST ENABLED ALSO WITHOUT HEADSET, KEEP IT! ###
### remember also to configure it in BoosterAudio program
HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Headset = 1
but without an headset plugged-in you wont find neither a station
bye,
davide
why would you want to access the radio without a headset plugged in? you have no antenna to recieve the signal anyway lol
Hello
I would like to use the radio as followed:
Connect a cable to the usb-connector (to have an antenna)
Listen at the music with a bluetooth headset (to have more freedom)
Is this possible ?
Could I use any usb-cable ?
Perhabs even an solar-or batterie driven charger?
That would be usefull in long bus-travelling, were I could store the diamond in the seat-pocket in front of me, and walk around with the headset on!
Thanks for suggestions

i have the same problem with a tdk a33 speaker (great sound) i'm guessing it's a problem with support for the protocol which there are many of and you can only know what you are using by pulling logs from the phone... not much you can do unless it's a problem with the phones bt stack. if the speaker has it's own volume control it might not support remote volume control. but if the speaker is meant to be controlled from the phone then it might be possible that changing the bt stack or driver for the bt chip in the rom/kernel would solve the issue. this would require rooting and flashing though.
can you control the volume with other devices? i haven't really messed with mine enough to know which device is the problem...

DANG! I just ordered a tdk a33 and didn't realize the phone wouldn't control the volume.
Is there any software that will work to do the volume control?

The phones framework supports BT volume control but it seem like the BT stack doesn't have complete support for the particular protocol some of these devices use...
When I try to adjust the volume the bar shows on the screen and it move and the speaker icon is substituted with a BT icon... A custom ROM might work but I can't recommend any as I haven't tried them yet... I will work on a solution and post detail here when I know more... My fathers old galaxy s 2 works perfectly with the a33 and I will check with my infuse that runs cyanogenmod.
after some googleing there seems to be bugs in the new bt stack... supposedly from somone testing 4.4.1 they fixed it.. but who knows. i don't even know how to become a 4.4.1 tester...
in the meantime i think any fix will need root.
I drive an Golf 6 with a FM Antenne in the Rear Window. Additionaly i installed a DAB+ FM Splitter .
I have an PX6 Avin Device.
The Radio and the DAB+ recierving works but not the Best. When i make the RearHeating ON DAB+ Signal is gone.
A FM Radiostation near by had a very bad receiving? What can i do? Does i need a Atenna Booster for the MK6?? Or have i a Problem with the Atenna ?

I drive a VW Touran and have also retrofitted the DAB / FM splitter. The radio reception is great.
Did you also connect the phantom power?

Hello
i have this one.
No Phantom Power is connect. Only the double Fakra in the Radio an den other in the DVB+ Stick
The splitter needs phantom power.
Do you mean? Doesn't the radio have 12V at the antenna output?

I don't think China Radio usually has phantom power in its delivery.
You have to read that in the instruction manual.
Ok the phantom power is not delivery, i think so too. I mean the Radio itself gives the Power over the Antenneoutput like a Orginal VW-Radio, or is that not so?
Somebody tells me that i can messure it at the AntenneInput from the Radio , or at the plug at the back of the rear window that goes to the switch.12v must be applied.

Ok, I have to install phantom power for my China radio, the VW radio RNS310 DAB didn't need that.
