Hi,
Is it possible to listen to the radio on the XDA-1 (wallaby) ?
Most mobiles have this feature, I was wondering if it can be enabled on the XDA-1?
Max
few mobil telephones have FM radio really
and no even though you can get SDIO cards with fm radios then xda1's dont support SDIO
but you can use headsets with FM radios in it along with any device
FM and GSM are very very very very different
so having a GSM reciever dont give you the ability to recieve FM radio
it require a special chip which the cellphones which do have FM radios have
much like you cant use your normal tv as a gps reciever
or your tv satelite disc as cellphone
Thanks for that.
If the Wallaby has a SD slot, you could use a SD FM radio card like this one.
Thanks. but the xda only has a sd slot (not an sdio)

I see that a lot of devices these days have FM radios built in.
Can the XDA be programmed like this, or does there have to be some piece of hardware built into the device?
I cycle to work approx 20-30mins (depending on my mood!). Thats where the MP3 is brilliant. But the unpredictability of the radio is better. Any answers much appreciated.

you can get a memory card that works as a fm radio and you can listen to the radio on the net but its expensive using the net.
Where can you get an SD-card that works as a radio for the XDA?
programming
I was hoping that it was just the matter of writing some code.
After all the XDA does have an aerial built into the device!

While an aerial is an important part of a radio, you will need to connect it to an FM receiver circuit and then to the audio circuits to actually be able to hear anything. The aerial in the XDA is used for GSM/GPRS, which is digitally transferred on 900/1800/1900MHz. FM radio transmisions are usually found in the 80-110MHz band and are analog.
SD FM Tuner

Sorry, SDIO cards do not work in the XDA I, so the SD radio tuner will not work.
it's for Palm OS only.... :?
is there a application that can pickup local radio station just like in nokia phones...? :lol:
Nop...
As far as I know, you need a SD card that has a FM receiver embedded, since Magician don't have a build-in FM receiver.
Good Luck,

Cool! I didn't even know that is possible. Do you happen to know where these SD-cards can be bought?
You can also listen to webradio with gsplayer.
Is it possible to use the wizard for a fm radio? I have read some diff. threads but haven't been able to come up with a answer about the wizard. Any help would be great.
Thank You, Great site I've learned alot !
No it's not
(removed the answer)
fm radio are analog signals based around 87.5 to 108.0 MHz
gprs/edge/umts are digital signals based around 900Mhz -> 2Ghz
options are to get a SDIO fm radio card
or get a wired headset with radio integrated
Thank You for the great reply Rudegar. Any suggestions on were to find?
DOnt some of the newer HTC phones have fm radios?
yeah they use an extre chip on the pcb to handle it i believe
some people believed the transiver was onchip on the newer Qualcomm
cpu's but as i dont show on their cpu blockdiagram i'd asume there
is a special chip on the pcb
it have nothing to do with the gsm radio
they dont even seem to share antenna
an with the new touch cruse it use the wired headset as antenne so it dont work
with bluetooth headset or using the pda speaker only :S

Like with most/all fm enabled phones...
surely fm radio and better camera are the only thing wizard is missing in my oppinion
Hi Guys,
New to the world of pda phones - using my first one now, so excuse if this sounds like a silly question.
I would like to know is it possible to adapt the Radio ROM of a Gene to act as a FM Radio receiver???
How come there are pda phones with FM Radios built into them?
Seen forums recommending SDIO card add-ons for FM radio applications, but thts an accessory.
I would like to know if this can be done and if yes how pls
fm radio is analog signals around 100Mhz cellphones recieves digital signals around 800Mhz->1900Mhz software cant change that....
Hello..
I have a AT&T Tilt (Kaiser)... My phone, along with most of the new HTC phones, have a "GPS" chip as well as a built in satellite antenna... Most of us who have these phones have many other high tech devices, including Sirius / XM radio... Using the internet receiver, would it be possible to create and app to log into out XM accounts and take out radio with us? Use our touch screen to scroll through the diffrent radio stations.. Pair it with a bluetooth headset or our bluetooth car stareo ? It is just and idea.. let me know if this already exists and I missed it.. Thanks
