[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
I thought I understood you couldn't switch to speaker, so I removed the ALSA commands to mute in a new June 12 test release. Maybe it's better, maybe worse ?

Copied from my thread:

(Note that this is the Free version, which has fewer features than Light, though I've enabled Stereo at least. My free release of Light was an exception that I may or may not repeat.)

Spirit Free June 12: http://d-h.st/CsN

Also on Play.

- Stereo enabled on Free version. (May or may not be disabled in future; no promises.)

- Hopefully better support for LG Optimus 4X HD P880:

Doesn't mute INB2 Switch'es. Maybe speaker will work ?

Automatically enables Debug Silent Loop to keep audio working & with volume control in background.

No automatic setting of Audio-> Volume Scale to 10 or similar. I think it might be better to reduce one or more of these ALSA controls:

INB Volume

Headphone Volume

Speaker Volume
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Keltek:
mikereidis you rocks, it works perfectly :) I try it yesterday evening. :good:

In default volume range the sound is little distorted so I change it from 100 to 20 and it is a lot better.

btw: I detect one issue - if FM radio is on and I try to enable Bluetooth it goes totally wrong and everything stops working - FM radio stops playing and BT cannot be enabled. I repair it by quiting Spirit and killing the Bluetooth stack in shell.

But anyway - thank you.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] eFCiKay:
hm, for me, speaker still doesn't work. (CM10.1 RC5)

with the latest version of spirit (June12) ALSA is not required anymore, right?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] zicoxx:
last version 0612 seems to work but no in automatic mode..no audio in headset or speaker..so i must select P880 from audio menuand audio works in headset and in speaker..

i think that 0611 version was better because all audio works in automatic mode..

for volume it's ok in 0612,stereo is great,maybe too loud for me..i use volume scale to 20

IMPORTANT: i report in 0611li and 0612fr if i plug headset i hear audio but if i switch in speaker mode no audio in speaker or headset (with headset plugged in)..

if i unplug headset audio works in speaker but with signal poor..
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
:)

The BT issue is a 2 year old issue/limitation. I will try to eventually add code that detects a change in BT state and effectively does a big reset.

Assuming your CM10 uses the normal open source Bluez BT stack, you can work around it by manually enabling BT, I think automatically by setting Debug-> HCI Access to "BT Socket".

Normally, when BT is off, Spirit connects directly to the Broadcom "BT/combo chip" UART. If BT is then started, then the BT stack takes over the UART and that causes a conflict.

Same problem happens if you turn BT off while Spirit is running.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
So basically, Speaker doesn't work with the Speaker/Headset button at all, either in 0611 or 0612 ?

Audio-> Method should be automatic if build.prop ro.product.device is "x3 or "X3". I'll go back to enabling the mutes and that may help.

Is there a script method described in this thread that switches to speaker ? And that works ?

On many Android devices, audio automatically switches to speaker output when a wired headset is unplugged. I've found that you can leave a headset plug partly inserted and that can be enough to get a good signal, while still leaving output to speaker. Won't work well in a pocket or on the go of course.

And here's a trick that might work. While FM is playing in headset, do Menu-> Test-> Audio-> "SFU MED/1 Spkr". You can also try the other "SFU x Spkr" functions also. After testing it might be good to reboot to ensure normal audio again.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Keltek:
Errr, mikereidis, I accidentally know it but didn't remember. I use Spirit FM on my old beloved Optimus 2X phone before where the BT behavior is same. Try the trick with HCI Access.

Anyway... do you want I make a translation of Spirit to Czech? :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] zicoxx:
I understood that for set audio in automatic mode ro.build.device must be "x3"..but in others roms as mokee or pac ro.build.device is "p880"..infact my roms actually has in build.prop "p880"..so this is the reason that on my device doesn/t work automatic mode..

Sorry i mean that switching speaker/headset button WORKS on 0611li but no audio in speaker when i switch in speaker and i leave headset plugged in..

On 0612fr no works button for switching speaker/headset..no mute headset when i switch in speaker and no mute speaker when i switch in headset,also when i plug headset in..

And no,i'm sorry but in this thread no script for switching speaker..the only script is for enable INB2 of speaker and Hp in alsa mixer..:crying:

For your trick to switch in speaker SFU MED/1 Spkr and similar no works..sorry again..
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
:)

Sorry, no to translations at this time, maybe in future.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
p880 is an un-official device name. I really don't like it when ROM devs decide NOT to use the official name. Besides adding code it also means people can get it from Play, and it doesn't work, and people post bad reviews, despite that I've spent hundreds of hours configuring the Play console to not allow downloads on un-supported devices. (Every week new devices are added by Google and by default set to supported. And I have to hunt them.)

I'll add it like I have for other phones, but I wish the devs left the names alone.

I'll try to parse these sentences later.

OK, so it's done manually with the AlsaMixer app. You just enable the 2 speaker switches to get speaker, while headphone is playing because the headset switches were enabled ? Do you disable any switches to get back to headset ?

If you had scripts working, it should be easier for me to get this right.

Trying to resolve audio issues remotely, when I don't have the phone, has always been very difficult and this is no exception...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] iodak:
On free 12.06. Sound works ok and if you plug out headphones it returns to speaker. I don't see any problems with it. Thanks for support mike.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] eFCiKay:
yes, thats true

that works very well. Signal is even stronger if partly unplugged ("55" vs "30") :good:

sorry, doesn't work

I think I remeber that when using ALSA it sometimes worked just by pressing the speaker/headset button
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
That seems strange. The ground or common wire is usually used for antenna. Using a non-stock wired headset might be partly responsible, or the engineers didn't design it well.

OTOH, messing with the ALSA speaker controls could cause some issues. I've heard the Motorola Bionic (with no official FM) has worse reception in speaker mode, and that's likely a function of how it was designed.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Vinndimon:
Big thanks! I forgot that my device has an FM-radio already :laugh:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dd-steph:
Thank you very much ! Radio FM works well with the experimental version of Spirit FM Light, I just have one problem :

The left side of my headset sounds very, VERY louder than the right one. I've tried with both my a-Jays Four and stock LG headset, I've also tried to set mono instead of stereo, the problem remains...

Anyone else experiencing this ?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Lagkage:
For the best help write in the official Spirit FM here

Remember to write your device and the ROM it's running.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
I'm still subscribed here but I answer posts on my thread first.

I don't have any answer for the channel balance issue. The FM chips usually have volume controls, but not for each channel and no balance control.

Are others seeing this ?

There is likely to be some ALSA control though that allows separate Left + Right channel gains.

If someone finds such control(s) and good values for them, let me know and I can add that.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
I'll note that this Light version is a bit older now; it's June 11 and current is August 5. Normally the Light version has been paid, but I don't sell it anymore, and I released June 8 and 11 freely.

I'm happy to note that for P880 specifically I sold 3 copies of Spirit Unlocked in May and 8 more in June. That's relatively small compared to popular Samsung's and HTC's, but better than nothing. :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] profyler:
at least on the 29/jul version, when hearing with headfone = absolutely ok, but if you switch to speaker, sound only comes out if you unplug the headfone, but then, reception is not good, so, you have to plug the headphone just a little to have a better reception but not plug till the end or sound will be directed to headphone. If you want , i can make a video for you.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
Not needed.

That's an old trick that works on many phones. Android default behaviour tends to be to switch to speaker when headset unplugged.

FM is a special case where we still want headset plugged even if audio is over BT or speaker or HDMI or whatever. Much grief comes from this for FM, but it's simple for users using non FM audio sources.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] tnsantos:
Is there anything I have to set to get it working here in Brazil?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mikereidis:
No.

But set Menu-> Settings-> Band to "World 100 KHz" or "World 200 KHz" as needed and restart.

read all posts from this thread and still cant get FM to work on my cyanogenmod 10.1.3 stable :(

can someone please post a less confusing how to. all the info in first post is not very specific. like should I use those /system/xbin files posted or should I keep the ones alsamixer installs? where do I put p880.conf file ? Do I nedd to create a script in tasker everytime I start fm radio ?

Hello guys , i managed to make it work with the first try. Just follow the steps in the first post (i went until step 5, speaker works anyway just go to settings-->audio-->output--> and choose what ever you like!)

The only problem is that inside my house i don't have good signal (i can't lock many fm stations) but outside in my balcony and on the street working fine !!! The only Rom i've tried this is the one in my signature.

Here are some screenshots and as you can see i locked two different fm stations :D :D :D
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Fladder72:
You don't understood the problem. With this error mesage we are not able to configure ALSA as described in OP...

After using an old asond.conf from vanir 4.3 I can set values for ALSA as needed. FM radio is working now...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Neelesh Pai:
Can you please explain how did you configure asound.conf..I tried but didn't work.

It worked with vanir conf file. Earlier I tried using PA file..BTW is there any way to improve the reception and sound quality??

Hi,

someone con help me?

Where I can find the right version of Spirit FM to use?

If I use the one "Spirit2 Free: Open Source Real FM Radio for AOSP & Root" in [MENTION=3575078]mikereidis[/MENTION] signiture doesn't work (error in attach)

The link in this post show another file

And then: what asound.conf I have to use: the one in my CM 11 nightly (/system/etc) or this?

Thanks in advance
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Adam77Root:
You should've read more on the topic, Spirit2 is not what you need.

No need to configure anything, works out of the box (at least it did few months ago).

Any difference from neatrom? That feature list is so similar. Looks like you just added freedom and game killer which are nothing more than apk's which anyone can install. Cydia is fine too but i draw the line with lucky patcher. That stuff is nasty.

Thread closed until links are posted. Placeholder threads are not allowed.

And if you do have paid apps in the ROM, I strongly suggest you take them out before releasing it here.

Edit: Also remove Freedom and Game Killer - they also fall under the warez category (as does luck patcher) and are therefore not allowed on XDA.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] godutch:
I really don' t get why all the One released by differen US carriers need different subfora, supposedly because iirc the sprint variant is rather unique and you can' t flash variants from the other carrier or the international version on it but this forum only leeds to more confusion because T-mobile is not only a US carrier but also a carrier in many european countries which also brands the international device with their own firmware+logo on the back. I have no idea what will happen when you flash an american rom on a european tmobile One... see here for example a seperate One for dutch tmobile: https://www.studentmobiel.nl/htc-one?plan_id=465&plan_length=24&provider_id=1&renewal=0

Isn' t it possible to just include different development sections for the different carriers to a unified One subforum?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] shehade08:
I think it's this way because there is less confusion and less chance for people to brick there phone because some people don't read before they go flashing roms. That's just what I think.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] skinsfanbdh:
because there are carrier specific mods like wifi calling. the devs in the international thread were just nice enough to give us those options.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] godutch:
But the existence of this forum will lead to more confusion, T-Mobile is a German carrier which is a big player outside the US but this is a T-Mobile US specific forum not meant for the majority of T-Mobile users.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] skinsfanbdh:
all tmo users can use this thread plus the international and at&t. all those phones are identical besides the carrier specific features and thats why there is a specific thread for tmo. wifi calling is only available for tmo if there was just one thread how many people would be asking why isnt wifi calling working for me. because your on at&t and it only works for tmo.

Helo,

my sisters HTC One X+ often went offline and then online. It is like activating the Flyngmode and deactivate it by it self.

If it happens she need to insert her SIM Pin and it is so annoying.

It is just since the last little update 1-2 weeks ago. It is not rooted or something else.

Does anyone have an idea, what i could do?

Greetings.
[HTC One X+] Vilq85:
I've had a similar problem twice. What seems to have helped is removing and reinserting the SIM card. Maybe she dropped her phone and the card got a bit loose.

you better to root it and install custom rom then see if it will happen again

[HTC One X+] PinguBene:
Hello,

thank you for your answers. We cleaned her SIM Card and the slot. I hope that this was the problem.

Otherwise we should try to buy an new crad?

To root her HOX+ is not sense full. You never get back the original configuration and she cant flash ROMs by her self.

Try putting some tape on the back of the SIM card. It will make it fit the slot a little more snugly giving better contact with the connections.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyanide911:
I'm coming from the S3 where the ROM scene is frankly quite pathetic, though it's steadily improving.

How's it with the note 2? Are there any major bugs with the popular ROMs? And how's the S-Pen support in custom ROMs?

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chima2:
I'm new here at GN2 forums (ignore the post count, I've been lurking since 2011), but I just recently came over from GN1.

I'm guessing the architecture isn't vastly different, as I saw plenty of features ported to the GN1 from the GN2 back when I was there. So far what I have observed is that there are fewer ROMS here, this is owed to the phone being newer. Also, the roms being cooked here seem relatively stable with a lot less bricking.

As for recurring problems, let's hope some veterans can chime in on that, but I haven't noticed anything major (wifi works, no sudden dials etc). All in all it feels like a very fresh scene with ever-improving innovations, not even a year old so what can we expect right. Your have a GN2 or you just curious?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frunobulax:
I'm taking a guess and saying it's even worse here regarding "movement". There's not much left to do, anyway. It would be lovely to have proper phablet interface support in stock-based ROMs, but... Well, it's pretty much "stable" here. Maybe It'll change for a couple of weeks after we get our hands in the official 4.2 ROMs due to next month.

No major bugs. In a few, there's one obscure Wifi-to-gadget or another that no one uses that doesn't work, but it depends on the baserom it is using - you see, Samsung's original comes with those bugs. In AOSP, you should expect a little worse battery life, since we don't have Exynos's sources. But they are still pretty nice.

S-pen is supposed to work with all Stock-based ROMs. There's a nice little app called S-pen Helper if you are not using the stock Launcher, but I don't remember right now if it works with an AOSP-based ROM.

It's a somewhat boring scene here, but we have all of the must-have stuff, like less-bloaty Stock, a few ROMs (many of them based on S3's work, by the way), CM, a few KANGs, and ParanoidAndroid. I had more fun testing stuff with my long dead Motorola Defy.
