Graphic Equaliser during FMRadio

Hi,

Managed to download the Radio .cab file

Does the graphic equaliser not work in FM Radio Mode? Any suggestions how I can make it work? :?

RDS

I installed (and renamed) the radio and it works fine. Is it correct that there is no RDS functionality?

I'm very new to this (got my Touch Pro 2 yesterday :) ) but is does the TouchPro2 support RDS reception? I'd love that. We have no good radiostations, but they are transmitting speedtrap information and that's the real value of the radio for me. Being able to listen to good music and receiving RDS data on my TP2 would do the trick :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
It tells you the song titles, yes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mdkbob:
I just tried it on my new TP2 and have now read all the pages of this thread. I can almost certainly say it does NOT work on Telus' (T7379). Could you please update the first post to reflect this.

Cheers!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Peter777_2:
Guess i'll have to buy a dog. Would have given the perfect opportunity to try it outdoors :) I had one radiostation indoors yesterday, but i'll give a try outdoors today.

Why don't you try it out and post your experiences? I've tried about 10 programs yesterday. There are about 4 of them left on my device. 5 didn't work at all and 1 i didn't like at all, so i removed them.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mdkbob:
Sorry I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I tried the radio program/fiddled around with it for about an hour and couldn't get it to work. Are you asking about other programs in general?

YouTube Post Showing It Working On My T-Mo TP2

I have no talent and am only a voyeur on XDA. I love this Site but because I am a dolt when it comes to programming, I can't contribute anything (I do donate though, as in the $ kind).

I did make a video showing the FM app working on my new T-Mobile Touch Pro2. Posted it on YouTube:

Sidenote: I especially like the Pole Dancer feature you built into the interface.

Record function

hey any chance we get a record function, or a program that will be able to record the radio?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xanthene:
Thanks for that!

We've seen that a number of networks around the world are actually shipping the Radio application. I briefly had a device from O2 Germany before I sent it back to get an unbranded one. It too had FM Radio by default.

Therefore:

Firstly, could we maybe start some efforts to get the version numbers of the Radio applications that ship on some networks? Or maybe MD5 Hashes? We could determine if the networks are shipping the original HTC app that was stripped last minute, or if they actually have a newer version. A member on pocketpc.ch reported that his O2 phone came with "FMRADIO 2.0". What's the version here?

Secondly, can we maybe start gathering original MUI files so that we can have the original languages used by our respective phones?

It would be nice if we could put it in the Radio Wiki page, and/or if the original poster could edit his post!

Thanks

I installed the HTC FM Radio and it works fine, but still gets stuck to a single station after a minute or so. I have done a soft reset and uninstalled/reinstalled - no change. I've noticed a few others post the same problem, but haven't seen any solutions, other than reset/reinstall. Has anyone been able to track down a solution to this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Showtime7:
Works great on my T-Mobile TP2... Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Charlie Brown:
Arggg!

Tried it. On US T-Mo TP2. It works for a bit with no titles just "PLaying Now"

I reinstalled and even hard reset :mad: But it only works for a little while and with crappy reception. If I try to scan it reads "No Stations". If I restart the app. it works for a bit with no titles again. As soon as I press the scan button or scan and save it gives me the "no stations".

I launch the cab from my SD card and also have tried launching fom device.

Anyone have any tips to get this working. Dont understand why it it working for others with USA T-Mobile tp2 and not my own. Kinda sucks! Would be nice to have the radio.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jarrek:
I installed in on my Telus based TP2, did not work.

Ran the GPS after without any problems, so highly unlikely that the FM radio takes out the GPS.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Wonderstruck80:
I just installed this on my Tmobile TP2 and it works beautifully! Song titles an everything.. Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] codykemper:
Help me please

I installed the .cab on my memory card and then opened it and saved it to my device soft rest my phone I try to open the program and it says I need the headset and starts the countdown so I plug in my headset that came with it from T-mobile but then says error and shuts down I've tried everyway to get this to work but nothing seems to help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
Worked for my T-Mobile TP2.

Are you running the Stock ROM? It worked on the Stock ROM jsut fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] codykemper:
Yeah 100% original t-mobile rom and I made sure the 4 digit country code was set for USA I have no clue why it's not working thanks for a fast reply and trying to help
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
Idk. I guess re-install it.

Oh, install to Device Memory if you didn't. Report back once you re-install it.

IDK. :( Sorry dude, but I'm out of ideas. You've really tried everything!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] codykemper:
yeah I've already tried downloading it it a few times and even tried just saving it to my memory card instead of my device and still nothing. I have even tried reinstalling the cab and doing softresets. I just don't know why the device opens and tells me to plug in a headset but when I do I get the error and it shuts down I just don't want to do a hard reset
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
Hmm, Have you tried another headset?? Seems like you've tried everything, but did you try that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jarrek:
Can anyone give me the registry keys from a GSM TP2 for FM Radio?

I want to see if there is any key in the registry that prevents radio from functioning on the CDMA TP2 on the Telus network.

FM Radio

Tnx very, very much for this cab. Works like a charm :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveShaw:
Just DL the CAB and open it with Win CE cab manager, or unzip and look at the setup xml.

Dave
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jarrek:
I did that, thanks.

But it is a possibility that the programmers at TELUS set a registry item to disable the radio that needs to be overwritten in order to enable FM Radio, or the FM radio is disabled from within the ROM?

In either case, it would be interesting to know if FM Radio will work with the Sprint version of the TP2.

For example, found a registry value under HKLM\Software\Drivers\FM called IsFMExist set to 0. This value is not in the CAB file of the FM Radio package that's in this thread. So I'm wondering how many other values related to FM radio could the registry contain?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jarrek:
Ok, I just read up on the futile attempts by the many members of PPCGeeks to try to get the FM Radio working on a CDMA TP1 without any success, so I assume it's going to be the same case with the CDMA TP2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
Meh, idk.

If it's a T-Mobile TP2, it'll work. Some other phone companies also seem to have the FM Radio still in the phone. Just try it, it's freakin simple. Install the CAB, and see if it works!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jarrek:
Did that, it doesn't.

It's a Canadian Telus Mobility phone that's on the CDMA network. I believe Verizon's version will have the same problem.

FM Radio "almost" works on T-mobile TP2

Aldolfo !

Thanks. (I am a newb poster so bear with me)

I just installed this on a T-mobile TP2 and it works fine except for a few things: 1) it had presets that did not apply to my area so I cleared them and did a "Scan and Save" but it came up empty even though I got great reception on one of the channels that was correct, and (2) when I tried to manually set my presets by using the arrows to tune, the numbers would start to advance but then just flip back and forth and not really go to the next frequency (station or not) in the 0.1 increment. I can't seem to manually set my presets. Any suggestions? Other than that ... the one station I got has BRILLIANT reception so kudos!

NEW INFO ... restarting the program a few times seemed to make (2) go away and did not retry (1).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pimppoet:
your post got my digging....There is already a fm radio app by default within the windows directory for the tmobile tp2 . It only seems to support bluetooth headsets. I was only a able to get it to play for afew seconds. My headsets battery was low so it may have been the problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] HeXeD:
I just purchased a TP2 from Sprint 2 days ago and I have installed the cab but unfortunately it does not work. I'm guessing they switched out the fm radio for the headphone jack.. I tried with 2 different pair of regular headphones and also with the headphones with the HTC style usb jack I received with my mogul. When i scan, I get "No stations found". The install was successful and the program works like a charm.. just wish I had the FM tuner.. oh well. If anyone else with a Sprint TP2 gets their's going please let me know.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] AlCapone:
no, but I hope we can get hands on software from one of these TP2 devices that comes with radio installed, It's likely to have improved software...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patrickrivard:
I just tried it too on my TP2 from Telus (Canada) and it does not even load... The .cab installs but it does nothing when I start the prog... I mean NOTHING...

I've tried uninstall SR reinstall but no luck...

Anyone has a suggestion?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Gman65:
I am on Tmo, and it works for me, I did have the same problem with the presets. I reset, and was able to save my own stations. I do however also use wunderradio and they dont play nice together all the time. So I only use one or the other, unless I want to soft-reset.

HTC_FM_Radio failed to install on ROM HTC_FRA_1.19.406.1_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27

Hello,

same message after flashing HTC_FRA_1.19.406.1_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27 (but in french : "L'installation de HTC_FM_Radio a échoué")

Same after applying HTC Hotfix HotFix_Rhodium_Radio_3.46.25.30

It was working fine on original ROM that was on the phone supplied by the French Orange web store (1.19.73.3 (51489) FRE, date 05/27/09). I did not need to rename files with french country code to have a french GUI.

I switched on PowerRadio but it has some issues controlling the radio hardware ...

Best regards,

Doesn't work on my new Sprint TP2 either. Installed twice, no go. Crashes, saying something is missing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
Hey, you've got a 3.5 MM jack. Sure, you can't listen to radio now, but at least you don't have to look like a fool with no 3.5 jack! I'd take that 3.5 audio jack any day. Wanna swap? (I might actually be serious, a true audio jack is important to me, while FM Radio might be important to you!)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] superx10:
on the sprint tp2 you need to install it to system memory not card. but that will get the program running but no sound output.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] b1iZZaRd:
yea thats the problem i'm having. it is possible to fix that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] notinkeys:
Alas, I did, but it still won't start.

I have to do a hard reset anyway, so I'll try again.

In Canada it does not work with the Telus TP2 !!!?

Hi !

I tried this, downloaded the .cab, installed the .cab, renamed the file to the canada code, and i made a soft reset, but it doesn't work....

does Telus removed (or not ordered) the radio hardware, to make cost economies ????? this will not surprise me !!!!!

Newbie Here! FM RADIO

Does this work with the Sprint Touch Pro 2? I am new to this and have never had a smartphone or windows mobile before. I just put it on my phone and extract it? But I do need earbuds for it to work? I have Sirius on my phone but I need to listen to some local radio stations here. Is there a radio program that's good or will this work better?

Thanks, Rose
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
We haven't decided if it does or does not work on the Sprint version yet, but you can always give it a try.

But yes, you need to have the headphones plugged in for it to work. It'll tell you that you have a minute to plug in some headphones, since they act as the antenna.

This is the only Radio program. You can always listen to Online Radio, but that's not your local stations.

If you want some more info on this radio app: http://thewingster.com/fmradio.aspx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rose4uKY:
Thanks, I may try it! I have the cab file on my card for when I'm ready to install it. I don't have headphones with me. I did go to my local stations website and clicked listen now and it brought up windows media but gave error msg wouldn't play. Thanks, Rose

How is the quality of the radio? Good?

Does it have Rds support?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bojanv55:
It won't work for me.

I installed it and connected headphones, and when start it says "The 'FM Radio' canot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persistes, try reinstalling or restoring this file."

Any solution for this? :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Monty Burns:
Thats a pretty bold statement, were talking IT here!:eek:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bojanv55:
installed it on main memmory insted of storage card and works now ok...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] adolfotregosa:
The fm radio is only an exe with some bmp and xml files and a simple registry entries. It does not have any driver, it does not change any system file basically it does nothing to the system.

"So ??? why doesn't it come already ??" hmmm.. why does the new cht rom have it ???

And just for the record, if you have the knowledge to do it, extract my cab, then, uncompress any topaz rom, and compare the radio files - FILE by FILE - and show me here ONE difference.

It's just an exe that access the fm-radio that's ALREADY built-in. So, when i say it does nothing i have the base to say it.

Do you have any thing else that proves me wrong ???

If you want i'll remove the radio cab and continue to say that pro2 does not have radio because if it has it will magically have i do not know what side effect.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jaso2005:
For crying out loud here, this bloke has worked on this for all of us and got the radio working for us, it does work, it works perfectly.

Stop your moaning and thank the guy for changing everyones Rhodium to have working radio, if you dont want it or dont want to try it then dont install it... simple.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Monty Burns:
Wow.. i suspect a couple of people who aren't "getting any" here. Chill out guys.

First off, "only an exe" so? A virus isn't even usualy an exe, its a buffer overrun, interrupt hook etc.... visualy simple things can still be dangerous. Probably not in this case BUT, HTC... the MANUFACTURERS left it out for a reason, despite the fact it was already proven as a demo. Have either of you, or anyone else wondered WHY they left it out?

I doubt we will never know, deadline related? Software issue? Hardware issue? Who knows (HTC do!) .... guess we will just have to wait and see.

I can tell you one thing for sure though after being in IT, ranging from building life saving systems in airports to programing games in assembler at the age of 14, nothing is "simple" in IT and nothing is bug free. Even a

10 print "hello"

20 goto 10

can lock a box up if the underlying OS calls are bugged.

Hope it works though! Enjoy it :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Monty Burns:
Exactly. Hence the "print hello" example. The program is sound, the OS calls may not be.;)

edit: oh and I dont care if you remove it or not, my Acer M900 arrives Friday ... and the English version comes with Radio as standard ;) Yes, i *almost* toyed with buying a TP2 which is why I am here.

Hmm, I haven't even tried streaming online radio from my phone yet.

But....Are you a chick? I'm starting to think that the Touch Pro 2 is attracting the girls. I was talking with my friend, and we were comparing phones, and then he's like "Dude, three chicks that I know have that phone". I was like, no way, this is WinMo, not some iPhone!! LOL.

The Touch Pro 2 is a really great phone, and it's sexy, and the software improvements that HTC made to it are apparently appealing to the general public now!

But if you're ever confused by WinMo or anything on the phone, just ask us, and we all know probably more than Microsoft's tech support does!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] AlanD769:
I read through half the threads and didn't see an answer to my problem so excuse me if I missed it. I have the HTC Touch Pro2 for Sprint English version. I installed the cab to memory and did a soft reset. The program loads fine but when I do a scan it says no radio stations found. I manually go to a station and hear nothing. I do have a head set plugged in. I did a hard reset and installed it again along with net 3.5 and had the same results. The volume is turned up. I played other music and can hear it fine. Anyone have any idea of what the problem is. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ace10134:
Look above your post.

Looks like Sprint forgot the radio, and instead gave you a 3.5 MM headphone jack. Or maybe they did include the radio, but we need different software for you folks. Sorry.
