lol.. if they make a mod to include antenna in ur phone itself you'll be able to use it.. till then plug in your headphones as they work as an antenna :)

simple answer is that u can only dream of playing it without headphones

Sent from my One V
[HTC One V] R3nn3K:
Cut the Jack connector from broken headphones, just 4 cm cable and you have mini antenna.

Sorry for my English
[HTC One V] nadigavinash:
Do this

As described by R3nn3K do this ...(IMAGE)

SORRY for the low image quality
[HTC One V] -Duir-:
ok I LOL'd @ the above.

Anyways, buy wired speakers for your phone. They'll double as the antenna and an audio output (something you'll be missing with the above) and you won't need to wear headphones.

Personally, I use the Altec T515s (had them forever) and they work great. Their best function is bluetooth functionality, but they support "Line-In" and come with a cable to plug your phone directly into the speakers (giving you the needed headset functionality to make the FM radio work).

Wow, grats on obtaining the power of resurrection, cause you sure resurrected this dead thread. :cool:

And while TuneIn Radio (the correct name of the app you're trying to mention) does work (so long as you don't mind the 30-45 second delay behind the actual station) the OP did ask about using the pre-installed FM Radio app (which has no delay or extra ads) w/o needing headphones.
[HTC One V] GUImess:
Which was dumb in itself. Who uses a radio without an antenna?

Anyways, necro posting is sexy!

You can try tunein it has channels from all over the world but you will require wifi,3G etc

I used my LG basic phone for FM,on speaker. No headphone required. Calling headphone as antenna should be history. Dont know why smart phones insist.

[HTC One V] kwitu:
Yea but don't you remember those antennas in old phones? Later on they were being placed inside of the phone, nowadays I guess it's so little space in there, they just decided to use headphones as a source.

[HTC One V] kayyappan:
Guys FM radio without handset mod exists for Moto Defy. It is available on this forum. I have used it and the phone does not have any external antenna. And that also had an option to switch between headset and speaker. Unfortunately we do not have it for HTC One.

Looks like ASUS needs to update the unlock tool to work on JB?

Clearly states on their site that the unlock is for ICS only.

I of course had to try it for fun (I like punishment?) and surely it failed and luckily didn't leave my tablet any worse for wear.

Are a lot of you guys unlocked? What are the greatest benefits you've found from doing so?

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] tbtaf:
Follow this link, or search others, and downgrade to ICS to unlock: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1915598 . If you unlock, you will void your warranty, and can only manually update or use a custom Rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
I'd say the majority of general community users are locked, but they probably just buy a device and would never tinker with it. That's not the inclination of the average XDA gadgeteer ;) so I'd wager that most of us in here are either unlocked, or have tried to unlock but failed.

The main goals of unlocking are threefold:

1) installing a custom recovery (thus enabling Nandroid backups)

2) installing Nvflash (making you have to work very hard at being able to brick your device at all)

3) installing custom ROMs

In fact, the general drive to unlock is in point 3, for if you do not plan on installing a custom ROM on your device, there's far less rational incentive to make a Nandroid backup, and you probably would not need the added security of Nvflash -- ASUS will take care of a brick in that case, I guess. So..... the main question is: to customize or not customize? ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] amenic:
I'm just extremely unimpressed and often times frustrated by the stock performance so I'm looking to try anything to make it better. I've purchased a 32 GB micro SD card and I'm going to move /cache and /data over to it to see if that helps. I'd like to get in on CM10 but from what I've read it's not ready on the TFI yet but definitely will do that once it is.
[Asus Transformer TF700] FineWolf:
I unlocked my TF700 on Jelly Bean using the unlock tool without any issue.
[Asus Transformer TF700] flyingwolf:
Sadly I updated to the update right before JB about 10 minutes before the announcement of the Nvflash.

And since you cannot go back down, I am stuck without Nvflash and as such I am staying stock until we get it for JB, then I will unlock and work this old girl.

I've already seen this, I was hoping for a more simple explanation. I don't understand what they all do? o.O
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leetxperia:
Same like radio. Every carrier has its own frequency like radio has. For example LOLRADIO has 88.7FM but Dance Radio has 99.3FM. Just an example.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xperia Player:
So baseband has to do with carrier frequencies right? Nothing else?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leetxperia:
Yes :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymonkey05:
a baseband is yes a radio frequencie so lets say you have a r800i but you flash a rom for r800x your phone will have no sirvice or even bootloop so becarefull with roms basebands
[HTC EVO 3D] ridleyj329:
First let me start by saying I know that no two phones are alike. With that aside I created a boot animation that is approximately 35 seconds long and works perfectly fine and play all the way through at a "normal" pace. We are both using an EVO 3D with MeanRom ICS. On his phone the boot animation is real laggy and barely plays half way through. A funny thing that I've noticed is that my custom boot animation will play on my phone as "bootanimation.zip" and his wont play unless labeled as "Sprint_bootanimation.zip. any help would be much appreciated
[HTC One S] danial.aw:
Hey what are some of the speeds people are getting with the Bell network (canadian) for their 1s....

I can only seem to get around 5 - 7mbps down max... anybody getting double digits?

also can you post your rom and radio specifications as well...
[HTC One S] Fredfly:
I'm with Bell as well in Toronto and my max download speed ever was 12MB/s and that was a peak realistically I only see about 4-8ish. I have a feeling though I'm being throttled. I found my data increassed slightly by removing the bell proxy in my APN. Would you be able to send me a screenshot of your APN so I can make sure mine is rightish.

I am running radio 1.06s with team venom Rom. I recently did an experiment with all the radios to see which one have me the best data and 1.06s was the most consistent. On a side note I couldn't believe how much data speed test can use. I used 450mB just on speed test
[HTC One S] danial.aw:
hmm ya im getting an average of between 4 - 8 as well... :S which makes no sense cuz this phone is able to handle so much more ...

the APN im using is the stock APN for bell which comes with Viper 1.2 rom... im currently using the 1.06 es radio... seems to be giving good signals but still bad download rate... ill try to upgrade to the new one and see what happens....

hmm also... using 450MB on a speed test is definitely not possible :S... u might have something else running in the background thats sucking it up...
[HTC One S] Fredfly:
I meant 450mb cumulative after testing multiple radios

What is the safest and best way to root my galaxy s 3 sgh-t999?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AutomaticFailure27:
After upgrading to Milestone6 and running the latest CNA 3.6.6, my phone has HORRIBLE battery drain while in deep sleep. I have looked at startup programs, BBS, CPU spy and I can't find anything showing what is causing it. I reverted back to r284-test and everything is working smoothly and no issues. The drain usually happens on wifi (overnight ~30% decrease) I can't figure anything out.

Does anyone else have this issue? If so, anyway to fix it?

Thank for any help out there

After some tinkering around, flashing new roms and such... I have come to find out it was Tasker. It has never done it before but I had a profile set to when "I come home, turn on wifi" It worked on the other roms, so I made no changes. It found it through the cell towers, but for some reason, it would turn my wifi on/off throughout. Removed that profile and inturn am using Llama for my location based issues. Seems to be working just fine now.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RayTrue04:
My friends has a gs3 he purchased on release day and rooted it. The past week he accepted two ota's which broke his root. So I'm trying to root it for him but here's where the confusion kicks in. On sprints website it actually show these updates are old and not new and there's two more recent ones he never got pushed to him. Right now the phone is on LG2 and won't update any further. What do I need to do to be up to date with root. Should I just look for a way to root this build or try updating it. By the way I haven't seen any root methods for this build which is why I'm asking. Thanks in advance to anyone who responds :beer:

Thank you! One more question. I'm reading but I don't see anything regarding data wiped. So does doing any of these steps wipe out all data?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AdRock02gt:
The method he used to root it in the first place should work again. Try that.

Then once it's rooted again go to this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1904099

Download the file "LI3 STOCK WITH AUTO COUNTER RESET" in the first post and flash the file in recovery. That will put the phone to 100%stock, unrooted, on the latest build.

From that point, if he wants to, he can reroot the phone and install the latest TWRP recovery. After that, tell him not to accept any OTA updates. Come back here to the development forum and someone will have the update in flashable form so that root isn't lost.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
Yup thats the most easy way of doing it. you say ur not rooted but do you have custom recovery? If so then re rooting before the flash wouldn't be necessary.

It will not wipe data however its recommended that you do. granted it will probably work just fine if it being installed over top of a stock Rom. Then to keep root/recovery just follow the instructions in the post
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RayTrue04:
I'm not sure if he has a custom recovery but I'm assuming if he was able to accept ota's and install them fine he must have stock recovery. I'll have to check and see a lil later as he's at work now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RayTrue04:
Any reason why his phone got these updates pushed back to back? And better yet why did it it stop at LG2 and not push LI3 and the one before that? Those two where his first updates since having the phone and they're mad old lol

Wish you guys had Odin OneClicks like we do for the GS2. Them things are so easy and stoopid proof lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shiftr182:
Sprints update system sucks......As for odin, you select the file you want to flash and click start......pretty stupid proof if you ask me. There is a .tar for the most recent update and the jellybean leak available in the development section.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RayTrue04:
Yes it is stupid proof but it also makes you have to take an extra step to reset the count. On my phone I just deal with the Odin OC which don't mess with your counts and come rooted then mobile Odin for the rest. Never have to worry about a flash count. But anyways thanks for all the help guys! I'm going to try and get this done tonight. Even though we both going for the note 2 in just a matter of days :D

A Small Guide if Anyone has troubles installing Omap4430 Driver in Windows 7

When plugging the phone in,find OMAP4430 in "Other Devices" in Device Manager.

Right click on OMAP4430,then click "Update Driver Software..."

Then browse to your omap4boot 1.8 folder that you have extracted from zip

Choose the usb_drv_windows folder and click OK

While installing the driver,ignore any warning messages

After installation finished you will be able to ressurect your phone

Good Luck!

Would this work for the p720 (3d max)?

Because flashing a p920 rom was what originally bricked my p720 in the first place.

Cheers
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
This guide is for p920 and su760...

If omap4boot gets you in download mode get a P720 ROM Bin file and flash it with LG flashtool.

It will probably work.

If you already have the p720 kdz fie but you dont know how to do it start a teamviewer session we will do it together.

Tell me if it works so we can update the guide for P720 too.
[LG Optimus 3D] CptK:
Sure, I will do when I get home in an hour or so. First I will have to find a p720 rom bin and then I'll let you know how things go.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Extract the bin from kdz with lgextract
[LG Optimus 3D] CptK:
quick update,

i've extracted the V10A_00.kdb into 8 .bin parts, so im presuming that smartflash is what is going to handle these files.

problem is that OMAP4BOOT is playing up today, it wont connect with GEN_ERROR unexpected 2nd stage respone. this is probably becuase im using windows 8.

im going to run xp on virtualbox now

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

Righto,

xp in virtualbox seems to of done the job

will update this post on a mo with results.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Those 8 files you will make them one with command in cmd: copy /b lg720

[*].bin lg720.bin after you get the single bin file use it with flash tool. You also need flashtool DLL file for 720.
[LG Optimus 3D] CptK:
yea thats a good point, i dont think a flashtool 720 dll exists.. :(

even a su870 cube dll might work
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
OK try the 870 DLL but remember to flash your 720 if it gets fixed and gets into normal download mode with kdz method in the end in order to fix 870 and 720 differences..

or if you cant find any dll try with smartflash tool im sure that you will get it recovered one way or another
[LG Optimus 3D] CptK:
i dont have the 870 .dll but it seems that smartflash or some other program created a p720 .dll for me:confused:.

that being said the LG flashtool says "fail" every time i try to flash, but on the other hand Smartflash seems to be flashing but at 100% says"Magic number does not concide", then shortly after the device reboots itself and then the whole USB connection/disconnection brick thing happens again. so it seems like nothing it actually being flashed.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
That DLL is the extraction DLL for lgextract

I all send you a pm tomorrow so we can have a team viewer session
[LG Optimus 3D] wkpark:
You can't use the smartflash method on P720 /SU870 etc.

there is no known working dll exists for P720 devices

you'd better to use KDZ_FW_UPD or UpTestEx

only problem is that it says invalid CP path in the LG flashtool whilst flashing. any help here?.

-------------------------
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
guys in order to recover your broken download mode you will use only the ap file not the cp (full restore is not a one run process and you are not going to restore your baseband or system files while in omapboot download mode cause we dont care about those things now) after it gets half flashed with ap ((ONLY THE AP.BIN FILE) ) you should try to enter normal download mode

so after you get normal download mode available ( not omapboot download mode) you can recover your phone with any way you like because it wont be shuting down anymore

I have used omap4boot to enter fastboot, the cmd prompt seems to display OK but instead of the LG gray logo, it displays my S/W upgrade screen in Korean. Tried flashing the V10G bin and fls using smartflashtool because this is the only app that can detect my phone via port41.

I learn what the fastboot mode is, the problem is that I can go in this modality just using the start_fastboot.bat, for 3 minutes ,If I have understood right using the combination 3d vol+ power the smartphone goes in the recovery menu, why does'nt work? I press the combination before plug the battery, some hints?
