Debug CAB 1.4.0.4 on HTC Touch Cruise (Polaris)

Sorry - no big changes on my Polaris. The whole interface is still dropped about 50 pixels down, so other phone panel is peeking in.

The new sub menus are nice, but when I tried "Set sensitivity", it says "unknown textbox event". Others were fine.

My station graphics is working, if they get the right input.

But in PowerRadio.ini it found:

Preset1=88100 | DR P | 0

Preset2=91700 | DR P3 | 0

Preset3=103000 | DR P | 0

Preset1 and Preset3 is here missing the last letter, "DR P" should be "DR P1" and "DR P4". Same problem is on 1.3.0.0.

Hi illi,

at first you have to resize all icons to 90 x 56 pixel.

Then we can make a cab file for you.

..some german icons

Hi sis!

Thanks for powerradio! Fantastic, i like it. Well done.:)

Here some icons of my favorite german stations and from suitzerland, hope anyone may use it...

First you should copy the icons into icon-folder.

If, after scanning, powerradio would'nt recognize the icons, you should rename the button (>push on it for two seconds>edit name) or you should rename the icon.

Best regards

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] UMH:
Hi KUR0I,

many thanks for your work so far.

I've done a test. It works for me except for one radio station "MOTOR-FM". In this case the name is displayed in the user interface as "MOTOR-" and is stored as "MOTOR-FM" as you can see in the attached screenshots.

After I changed the file name to "MOTOR-FM.png" the display of the icon is OK.

I think PowerRadio stores 8 characters of the station name but the length of the displayed name depends on the font an the used characters.

Regards, UMH
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
exactly. station names are 8 chars per RDS definition. I'll add a few pixels to the width.

Hi!

Hi all!

I've seen only now this fantastic app so I want to do my little report of it in my Polaris.

I've the same problem previously reported:

- no RDS data... only frequency MhZ in main screen. when I save a station I can see the RDS name [POSTEDIT] Sorry I think this is only another resolution problem, not a bug... re-sorry!

- some button in the lower part partially visible and (in my case) not cliccable;

- consequently I've to close the app with "brute force"! but in this case radio app is closed but my earphone are still playing! So "power radio" does not start anymore: can't open radio error;

And I've a little question for u: if I choose to open "power radio" even without the earphones why I can't ear nothing even if I choose to have the signal out of the phone? when I plug the earphone I can ear the radio but If i don't want to use earphones why I have to plug it to ear my radio from the phone's speakers?

Thank u for all and bye
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Bib_x:
Hi, is RDS data shown on your polaris?

You have to plug in the earphones, because this is the antenna.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mylostnick:
Hi! And here I am!

Now the skin it's perfect for me on my Polaris QVGA. Fantastic.

But I've to report some little problems:

1) Power Radio in this latest version is always on top! and I can use other programs. In my phone. I've installed fingerSuite, to have finger friendly menu and msgBox and I can't use it with PR (I've to add it to th exclusion list). And it makes me crazy with S2U2 too!!!

With the previous version it was OK.

2) in 1.4.0.4 RDS was fully functionally. Now it's not always OK. But I can't say why...

3) some icons are not correctly initialized (IE earphone/internal speaker, mute)

Great work. TY

If I have exitoption to 0, error on exit occurred.

If I put it to 1, application closes almost instantly with NO errors, but If open-close of powerradio occurs 2-3 times, powerradio stops to work (it's always muted) and if I try to open HTC FM radio it fails to open!!!

Something else I have noticed is that PowerRadio can not be minimized anymore and it always stays in top of all other applications.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
I changed the forms behaviour to be always on top. Doesnt make problems on HD, just use home button and its back. Dont know if polaris has a home button, anyway, next version will have previous behaviour and a fullscreen option too.

Regarding RDS, no changes were made. Softreset your device.

Didnt see any icon problems on the emulator, but of course its not a real device. Please post a screenshot.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
exitoption 0 is the default behaviour which seems to work on most devices. After the screen is gone, the app is really terminated.

exitoption 1 is the same as it was with v1.3. On exit, the window is gone but the app continues running for about 10 secs in background (maybe longer). If you start PowerRadio or HTC radio during this time, you'll get all kinds of errors. You may view the background process with Fdcsoft taskmanager or SKtools.

*EDIT AGAIN*

-Cannot get any station icons (dunno if they aren't sending icons) (not a prob my mistake)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
station icons are not sent by the broadcaster, you have to either create your own or download an icon package (see first post for available packs).

RDS info is totally up to the broadcaster. Not all stations send RDS text messages. And what is sent is up to them.

Regarding icons:

- save them in \Program Files\Power Radio\Icons (create the folder if it doesnt exist)

- size must be 90x56 px

- file format .png

- filename must be identical to the name of your preset button (special chars like *:\ are filtered)

- if you collected a couple of icons, post them here :)

Run a test with APItest from the GFMAPI package. Here's a nobrainer:

APITEST quick guide

- get the latest GFMAPI release.

The support thread on xda-developers is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=497977.

The latest package as of this writing is 1.6 and can be downloaded here: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=205753&d=1247788694

- make sure you connected your earpiece as it works as antenna

- start APITest.exe from the GFMAPI package.

- press PowerOn

- tune a station which is known to transmit RDS, using SeekFore/SeekBack

Now you should notice increasing values near the "RDS count=" text. If it does, everything works fine and you should get RDS with Power Radio too. If not, this can have a couple of reasons:

- tuned station does not send RDS data

- bad reception (in Power Radio, you should have values of 10 or more)

- GFMAPI is not working with your device

Thanks a lot for your answer. To avoid slowing too much the phone, you could write on registry only few information, not exactly everything. For example in this moment I think only actual FM frequence and RDS name could be useful.

In few words I mean we need only a little subset of informations, not everything :)

Awesome!

Could you please let me know your device details and ROM version? I'd like to add a note on the first post to let others know
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Right, thats what i tought too. Its already built in the v1.4.0.6, see HKLM\Software\PowerRadio. You should find values for frequency, stationname, rdstextmessage. Values are updated as they arrive from the radio. ATM they are not cleared on startup/exit of Power Radio, will add this in a next release. I might build an option to run an external script/app too, so to avoid polling for values.

I'll update docs later.

I have the same problems. XDA Orbit 2 (= HTC Polaris).

Two times I was successfull and had an increasing RDS count in APItest-application. But very very often I had the failure "FMPowerOn: On Error 31".

Same in PowerRadio. In two times of ~50 tries I had RDS-Signal.
