UKW, FM Radio on my HTC touch Elfin - Touch GSM General

Hey,
im new to all the Smartphone world. I just got a cheap used HTC Touch actually with Vodafone branding. Its the Elfin version as i found out.
My problem is, i am using this nice smartphone as a navagation tool with an external gps reciever. The only problem is, i cant use TMC with it.
I have found a software to add TMC to almost all smartphones, but its required to have a radio antenna. When i read well, this phone has no radio?
The strange part is, i have read some forum posts somewhere and ppl say you can actually use radio on this phone with the original headset S200.
There is not much information out there about this.
So i ask you guys, do you have any idea how i can add this funktion to my phone ?
Thx

The Elf does not have fm radio, never has, never will. It is not capable as it does not have the hardware; however, if you want to try it anyway - Try the FM Radio cab for the touch diamond.

Not me
Long time ago the Trinity was announced in the HTC roadmap as a "have it all device". Many of us were disappointed seeing the final specs. Now it seems we get back bit by bit all missing features.
Wonder how long it wil take before the first "have it all ROM" is available. The Trinity becomes a really interesting device and will be certainly quite a challenge for many programmers in this forum.
If the radio would also have RDS (like the Artemis has) then this would open the door to navigating with TMC assistance
Let's see how this Tiny Trinity develops...
Can anyone confirm this regarding the devices for the European market? Visible hardware, antennas etc?
i've got my trinity for 3 days ago but i've not FM radio inside. i suppose chinese rom can activate that feature but i'm not sur.
(désolé pour mon anglais : je suis français)
This all is GREAT to hear. I'm really looking forward to all this, but the big question is: HOW LONG IS IT GOING TO TAKE?
When does the GPS get activated?
When does the FM-radio get activated?
Will it ever use it's video processor?
(none the less, I think i'm going to buy it today...)
Sorry guys...I have the Trinity with me and I am 100% sure It is 99.99% same as the Hermes, No Radio and GPS at all..If you are looking for GPS and Radio ..maybe go for the P3300, Orbit ^^

How do you know? Did you disassemble both devices and compare the circuit boards?
Strange,
I also have attend in the Dopod D810 product launch. I just check again in the document and leaflet. Have never mention have FM or Radio function. I wonder why the china site have mention have FM radio.
And for GPS, I think is possible. we'll see

I happened to notice on O2s website:
O2 XDA Orbit
The latest ultra thin XDA device from O2 with Microsoft Windows Mobile, integrated GPS (Sat Nav) and FM Radio.
The Orbit is O2's version of the P3300, aka the HTC Artemis. Note the 200MHz OMAP CPU.
is the Dopod D810 buyable yet? Cuz I would like to have the FM-Radio on my P3600
In Thailand, we will get the Dopod 810
but is seem that they do not communicate anything about FM Radio at all..
Is this true that Trinity (Dopod P810) having or will have ..FM-Radio?
This is getting interesting,..
with GPS (seem to be confirmed) and FM radio..??

The only info I have on the FM radio is in the first post of this threat. You could try and send an email to Dopod and see what they say about it...

FM Radio

Hi,
I've got a simple question, I know it's true that in the D810 trinity version, FM Radio works. So, By flashing a D810 rom (Os and Radio roms) on another trinity PDA, why the FM radio wont work ?
The hardware isn't the same (ie chipsets inside) ???
Thanx for your answers.
This is the first I've heard about the Trinity having FM Radio..
Trinity does not have FM radio... none of the available versions.
the Trinity definately does not have an FM radio hidden in there.
Although now that there are a few PDA's and phones out there with one, I think its a great addition.
Looking forward to see where PDA's are going in the next year or so. wouldnt it be great if we got a strong GPS receiver, really decent camera and a digital or RDS radio built in.
What ever else could they fit in there??
fm radio
there is no fm radio on any of htc p3600 or dopod d810
however you can downlaod the resco radio and listen to all those radio stations through internet

CDMA is commonly used in India, so you have got Touch, but the CDMA version. It's not Elf, but Vogue. It has got faster CPU (400 MHz) and in-built GPS, right? So you're writing in wrong forum.
i am using GSM one HTC Touch....
right now none of the gps software is installed.....
Try TomTom, it's one of best navigation apps.
But do you have and EXTERNAL GPS ?
no i dont have any external gps......
Then, first things first ... you have to buy an GPS to use/configure a GPS

The GSM Touch does not have builtin GPS, like said. You need to buy an external one to use GPS on the phone.

ELF GPS

Hi There,
I was wondering if anyone knows Rogers HTC Touch ELF has built GPS and what are the steps to enable it?
Please help me out as I spent so much time search on the net.
Best regards
From what I can tell it doesn't have one. I could be wrong, but I've never found anything on mine. I had to use an external bluetooth one.
Only Vouge has a GPS built in, and Elf doesnt has GPS
As Vouge processor is diferent from Elf.
As i know Elf doesnt have GPS thing.
Don't want to beat it, but here's your answer in English.
The Rogers HTC Touch doesn't have GPS. Only the Telus & Bell versions of the HTC Touch have built-in GPS.
