FM radio????

Does anyone know if there is a FM radio in built or know some way to get on on the Dopod 838 PRO?
Thanks!

Kellogs cornflakes has them sometimes "inside" the box for free with certain promotions.
In all honestly buddy, u gotta read....

Don't know of an add-on fm tuner you can install, but if you have data services you can access www.thestreamcenter.com and you will find a link to just about every FM station in every market of the grand old USA.

I did read, for 30 mins.....just a simple yes or now would be really helpful
I read that the jasjam does have a radio......please any help is greatly appreciated!

yes the jasjam does have a radio.

......THANKS!, and to clarify that the dopod 838pro and the jasjam are the same unit internally??
So I need to search for a compatible rom with the fm radio enabled?
When I do a search for FM RADIO, all I recieve is radio in reference to the gsm radio.
Thanks for the tidbit of info!

I believe JJ was talking about the GSM radio in the phone. Don't get your hopes up.
Love your work JJ.

lol, ok, FM RADIO

To prevent possible further abuse, there isn't an FM radio built in to the phone. As someone posted earlier, you will need to stream any FM feeds that you want.
Resco Radio has worked fine for me.
Good luck though, let me know if you find it.

Thanks man ! i will keep reading..............................

Radio FM

Search and read before posting pleazzz....!!!

Yeah but that info is wrong anyway rudegar it claims the Trinity doesn't have built in GPS.

yeah i know the gps was disabled in the rom for the trinity at the time they made that compare page

See... NO
Atom has FM radio.

No, it doesn´t have fm radio built in.
you can only use the streaming player to listen to radio stations.
Cheers

problem is that it dont have normal SDIO slots if it had
you could get plenty of SD cards which were FM radios
another option is that many headsets you can buy
comes with FM radio included
well maybe not many but you can get em

Radio possible P3600
The motherboard of the P3600 has an emplacement for a FM Radio chip, but most Trinitys do not have it. I believe somewhere in the world some company sells them with the FM Radio chip. Before buying I could have sworn that I saw it somewhere and since I have seen photos of the trinity motherboard with and without the FM Radio chip - on a French site PPC Cool - can't find the post right now.

FM Radio for Elf

Hey
Is there a cab of FM Radio for Elf??
Thanks

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.

I have already trying this but it doesn't works... Thanks for your fast answer

Sorry, It doesn't work because it can't work. As I said before, No hardware in the elf for FM Radio.
If you have a good data plan - Use can listen to internet radio. This is what I do and I get much better selection of music to listen to with no *(or hardly any) commercials.

Ok, good idea

i know that there is no hardware in the elf but is there a mod you can do to add the hardware inside the phone? or is there a mini usb attachment to give you fm?

Never heard of such a thing myself...
However, you can go to the dollar store and buy one of those cheap fm scanning pocket radio's - even comes with ear buds and you are good to go

Hi i think there is a bluetooth headphone with built in FM radio ( may be Motorola ! i cant remember ) you may search ebay or amazon

ok well thanks anyways for the help

FM Radio on Leo without headphone!

hi all
I've heard that Leo can play FM Radio without headphone work as an antenna? I wonder at it?
Is there anyone can confirm that....
Thanks!

Negative m8, Leo's FM Radio needs enclosed earphones handset to operate as an antenna.

I would love the day the manufacturers could put in a antenna to allow use of the FM radio without putting in a headset.
I hate using a wired headset.

Try one of these, no need for headphones and a bit cheaper!

Its a phone ffs, lol
Mind you they are getting bigger, so one day you could have a £500 fm radio with built in antenna.

i dont think its as easy as just putting radio antennas inside a body of a phone.
one might have to think about interference to/from the phone antenna, wifi antenna, bluetooth antenna, gps antenna and any other antennas already present in the phone.

I don't think it's even physically possible to make an antenna small enough to fit in a phone which is sensitive enough to receive low-frequency signals like radio.

Mmm..I dont know how to say but I just heard that from someone. They said Leo could play FM Radio without headphone in new coming Rom update. Any Mods here knows it?

It is not a bad ROM, it is because of radio-frequencies all need antennas that fit their special wavelength to work.
If you use radiowaves you can use antennas that are only half or a quarter of the wavelength, so 10cm waves need 2,5 cm or 5 cm antennas.
Radiowaves in FM are about 4 m wavelength, so you need 1 m antenna!

The FM Radio tool from the HTC Debug Tools (On the prototype phones) does work without earphones.
Also tried the tool in my release phone, als also there the fm radio worked without earphones....

just a few more months and the Sony Ericsson MW600 headset will be availlable with build in FM radio.. I have a SE HBH-DS220 at the moment and it works great sound is awesome..
I wish we could enable audioboost with A2DP

does it recived channels and you could hear it without head phones

i don't bother the built-in FM radio. Try use WunderRadio. Internet-based radio. Of course you need unlimited data plan for this to work.

Some walkman phones have built in fm antennas like w960, and some cheap chinese phones too, i don't remembor which one though, i read their test on mobilearena long time ago, so if it is possible.

That's great, except when you are on the move and lose data coverage which is exactly what makes the FM radio useful.

I just had the july 8 nrg rom in and the fm tuner would open & receive a few channels with NO wired headset plugged in & played it though the speaker..
I want to know if the fm tuner capabilities are based on the rom in general or a specific "fm tuner driver"
Currently on kumars 2.4.1 and of course the fm wont open without a wired headset plugged in : (

[Q] Development status for FM support.

Dear friends,
I had read in some threads about the existence of the BCM4329 inside the HD2, that it makes FM receiver AND TRANSMITTER options possible.
So, I was wondering about the chance of having FM transmissions possible, if things had progressed with the years (those news are from 2010, still focused on WM6.5), also thanks to the existence of very updated versions of Android, although it seems to me that nowadays an FM API is still not available to us.
Thank you.

What are you talking about? Where did you search for this? As a Google search you are Fired!
Just instal Spirit FM and you are ready to use FM Radio on your magnificent HD2. Plug the Headphones which are needed as antenna. Also the Radio will turn on Bluetooth because the chip to run FM radio is implemented into it.
Have Fun.

What is your point? I got HTC HD2 and I use Spirit and everything working fine. Where is your problem? Maybe you have the wrong Rom installed. I know someone complain with some rom but the hardware it's the same.

BTW, what FW trasmissions for?

Unfortunately, there hasn't been much progress on that field (as a matter of fact, there hasn't been any progress at all). If you read the replies in that thread, they couldn't make it work. The furthest the could get is to confirm that the HD2 indeed does have the chip.

He isn't talking about the radio receiver, he's talking about a radio transmitter. E.g. You run a special app, ask the app to transmit a song using radio. And then you can listen to that song, say, in a car using the radio. No wires/bluetooth connection needed. Simply tune in and listen. I really wished they did it.. what a pity.

Yeah, I figure out this at the end, my bad. :angel:
It will be a good option but the radio receiver will have to tune to a specific frequency and this part I think will be the issue here. In terms of words so simply but unconventional.
I think they don't do that for a national security.
