Yes, it worked in previous versions. Unfortunately, i don't know the exact version number when the error starts showing up.

As far as I know it started yesterday, so it could be 1.4.0.4.

I had definitly no problems with 1.4.0.0.

Hi 6Fg8,

withe the new version 1.4.0.6 the volume is visible.

Also other applications can used now. What was it?

After every installation i make a restart of the TP2.

So that can't be the problem...

Hi TomMob

What´s your Radio- and ROM version??

I use Radio 1.59.46.12 and Olio v4.79v4 M2D Full German ROM.

Maybe my RDS-problems are because of the radio-version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Hm, i wasnt aware that it was not visible in previous versions :confused:

But it works now, right? Might be related to the "always on top" accident.

How do you do! The experience concerned with On leisure:

2.charge 89% - Default FM receiver, all similarly, in business hours charge 89%,

3.charge 89% - Power Radio with off screen, average loudness - a work 1 hour - a charge 76%

4.charge 76% - Default FM receiver, all similarly, in business hours charge 74%!

Battery Consume- Power Radio & HTC FM Radio

Here is my battery test results: My device is Diamond Official rom 2.03, Radio Power Ver 1.4.0.4 with with GFMAPI 1.6.

HTC FM radio

: 3% per hour

PowerRadio

: 22% per hour

I really like this programme as I already mentioned before.

I also know that HTC Radio doesnt use much CPU power during run, it only reads the station name. Power Radio listens to all RDS packets and needs a good amount of CPU power for fore- and background tasks.

But with this battery consume, it will be very difficult for me to use Power Radio esp when I am out of office or home.

So, is there any way to reduce CPU usage, like an option select and unselect to receive RDS packet ?

Many Thanks

NOTE: I am also interested in yours, other peoples experiences

ABout Battery Power

Guys please, switch on the brain. 6Fg8 has made a very good app.

This app, so the users, must run on nearly every phone ;-). Think

about that... and now think about the functions for that.

How many calculation the CPU must do. It's begin with the

VGA and QVGA res on the screen. The next every one will

have the RDS and possible the TMC for the the right resolution.

Mhh, i coding now more then 30 years. When i think... it is a lot

of work to do and so a lot of CPU power.

So and now think again.... how many power do you use for

all that?

A car with 50 PK needs not much fluid. A car with 150PK needs

more. And no one say anything......

Have a nice day all of you.

Power Consumption

I didnt do power consumption tests with the new version so far. So there might well be room for improvement. Current development focus is getting all bugs out and make Power Radio stable. And there are a couple of things on my list which i like to implement just for my own fun's sake too.

Reducing Power Consumption is a very time consuming process. I will have an eye on that in future versions, but dont expect neither quick nor massive improvements. The comparison that mike2nl stated is absolutely true, you cant compare a sleigh with a S-type Mercedes.

it won't work for my tmobile wing

i have a tmobile wing, and when i installed this app it said that i need the newer version of window net cf 3.5, so i installed that. now it says "cant open GFMAPI. what do i need to do to get this working. please somebody help me. i am not the best at this stuff, but really want this to work:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] igorp:
I've being playing with this app yesterday for about hree hours. And I observed the following strange thing - despite I had configured CCIR-band, sometimes (that is completely occasionally) scan stopped at 90 MHz and restarted again from 70 MHz. This happened three or four times during these three hours. Restart of application recovered from this bug.

FM-band in Russia - 65,9-108 MHz. It consists of the so called OIRT-band (65,9-74 MHz) and CCIR-band (87,5-108,0 MHz). I think, World-band (76,0 - 108,0 MHz) in PowerRadio pretty good covers Russian FM-band.

Added: Dear 6Fg8, please have a look at power consumptuion. PowerRadio have eated approx 27% of my battery during yesterday's two-hour playback. Microsoft FM-Radio seems to be better in respect of battery-life.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] flywhc:
Can you download GFMAPI 1.5B from the link below, and copy gfmapi.dll into powerradio folder? It may solve this band issue.

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=200506&d=1246311604

6Fg8, I suspect this version of power radio still use old version of GFMAPI so that still has this band issue.

OIRT-band is not supported by BRF6350 on the phone.

power consumption is a tricky issue. When FM radio is on, the phone cannot run in power safe mode. It just shows black screen when press the power button. so the application should idle itself when screen is off in order to reduce CPU usage. for GFMAPI, this could be done by set notification handler to NULL, and program won't receive any notification.

By the way, microsoft doesn't provide any FM radio application, either FM radio driver.

They are made by HTC.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Thats right, i'll pack the new version into the next cab.

I will build an option to suspend all background tasks which PowerRadio runs when screen is off. Downside is RDS messages wont get updated, so one will have to wait until the next updates occur.

About the skins

On my HTC TP2 (Rhodium) i have made a complete black mod. After i

have used PowerRadio the first time, i have installed at first the metal

But now after 2 weeks i have used for the first time the kuroi-tp skin.

with the rest of all screens, i think i use that now for the future.

Or has someone a more shiny skin? ;-)

just another question to the makers of powerradio would it be possible to make fm-n (narrow) be implemanted or does the chip doesn't do this? would be fine to listen to fm-narrow stations below 87,5 mhz as well even if its makeable a squelch function would be great!

i don't know if the radio chip is so adjustable to reduce the bandwidth or if it's just possible to recive fm-wide course i don't have the datasheed of the built in chip...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
quick and simple answer: not possible. Datasheet attached for your amusement. You better go for a IC-R20 :D

Hi samsat,

ok do the following:

copy the FMSDKWrapper.dll to the sdcard (you have one?)

otherwise make a new folder on C:\ and copied there

Now hold down the stick/pen on the filename for ~2..3 seconds

then you will have a popup. Here you can change the properties

for the FMSDKWrapper.dll. Uncheck all checks on the left side

and use OK.

Now you can rename it to FMS_API.dll. Then you copy these file

back to the windows directory. Thats all...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] samsat:
I tried this. The copy to the SD card, renaming and copying the renamed file back to the Windows directory all works OK.

i think taht is not possible. You don't have a FM Radio chip or an

That you can receive InternetRadio says nothing about the FM chips

on board. Take a look here where i have compared all GENE 100 devices:
