This i will test toady in the late evening and reprot later here.

hi 6Fg8,

nice to see there is a new version.

in changelog i'Ve seen there is reverse squelch :-)

but i'm not able to enter negative number...

no - is accepted :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
X1 is still supported (cant test as i dont have the device).

I found a bug during intial scan when PR is installed from scratch. Will post a fix soon.

Interestingly, i can reproduce that :D. Will publish a fix soon.

It is a pity that function screen Deenergizing till now does not work (
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bespinillo:
Nice!, it works in my Acer F900 with the proper gfmapi.dll

It has no RDS but i think that is unsupported in hardware, this app is better than the included FM tuner in acer's rom.

Thanks a lot!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] janp:
Hi 6Fg8,

Thank you for the great application.

It seems that the version 2.4.0.1 inaccurately reads settings from “PowerRadio.ini” file.

When I change layout – skin to “Dusk black glos“ or „Brown“ and close the program,

after new start there is still default skin!?

BUT (after new start) the “PowerRadio.ini” file has right row “Skin=\Program Files\PowerRadio\Skin_Dusk_Black_Glow.ini”

Installation is done into main memory, of course.

Under v2.3.2.0 it’s without problem.

Thank you
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
If you'd be more specific i might be able to help.

The full path entry for "Skin=" is correct, but it should find the skin though :D Will post a fix soon.

Hi 6Fg8,

cyclic i check via app2date is there a new version for my installed software. Because a hard reset some days ago i have installed PR 2.4.0.2.

So far ok, but app2date says: error version check. You have an idea or is your link dead?

Headset required?

First of all a very nice program.. But i don't understand one thing.

Is it now possible to listen to the radio without the headset on a HTC Touch PRo (Raphael) or do i still need this headset?

Because i have signal,rds tmc etc etc... but i don't hear any sound

Maybe the question is already answered somewhere else but i did not find it that is for sure..

many thx in advance....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Power Radio itself does not check for the headset, nor does GFMAPI. It solely depends on your device.

If you have signal and RDS you should be able to listen via speaker. Just switch audio output (ear/spk).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] flywhc:
FMS driver checks headset and mute sound if you unplug the headset.

I am still not sure this is a hardware restriction or a "feature" of the driver.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
oh, does it? Wasnt aware of that. I thought some guys reported they are able to listen unplugged too.

ADD: ah no, i remember it was in the TMC thread, and they were able to get TMC

Some bugs found (seems scan not fully functionnal on my device ) and need to improve but usable and clearly promising ! :)

Do you know how long it will be until the CDMA Touch Pro is supported?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JassyNL:
Thanks for this software! Do you have planned to show the RDS-PI code in this piece of Software? That will be great!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
The PI code splits into country code, coverage area and program reference number (US has other rules, which i have no knowledge about).

Country codes are ambiguous and need extended country codes for clarity. Unfortunately none of the broadcasters here (Austria) do send them, so its of little use. I dont know if broadcasters in other countries send them.

The coverage area is already on the display - see item 14 on the first posts screenshots.

Program reference number is subject to registration in each country. I dont have access to these tables, though it would be nice to know.

is there any paln to support the TPro2?

Power Radio v1.2 has been released: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4046501&postcount=1
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] L_o_k_i:
Hi 6Fg8,

I've just tried your latest version of PowerRadio. Great improvements comparing to the first one!

Can you add:

- a stop button during the initial scan

- the ability to save/restore the presets. It could be usefull when we change region.

Bugs:

- when I run it the first time, PowerRadio got an exception error during the scan when entering on the 4th blanks of presets (see pics for details)

- after the second try, it hangs on "waiting for RDS station name (5)" with a scrolling station name. In fact the station name was the name of the playing song. The power button was useless. I was able to unblock it by entering manually a frequency, but the other frequencies was not saved!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:
Thanks for this new release ! :D

I'm gonna try this ASAP :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Hi L_o_k_i,

thanks (again) for testing, and your help while doing the beta.

I found a bug in the scan proc and hopefully fixed it. The symptoms on your 2nd try is caused by the initial problem, so it shouldnt happen too.

The new version asks before it runs the initial scan, if there's still a need for a stop button while scanning i'll build one later. save/restore presets is on todo for next release.

New version 1.2.0.1, as always, here: http://xdaforums.com/show...01&postcount=1
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Great, appreciate that :)

BTW: greets to the guys at the french forum ;)

If you guys manage to change colors so it's less ugly, or better fits the french chalets, please ... let me know and post your skins and screenshots :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] paalkr:
Hi!

I have the same problem on my Topaz, with PowerRadio 1.2.0.1. Setting the volume control to max and system volume to max does not help. The volume is increased to a proper level for a split second when changing station presets though, and then immediately reverts back to low.

Any clues?

Anyway, great application! BTW, does AF (alternative frequency) work with PowerRadio?

Regards,

PK
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FDPM:
I get a generic "cant open GFMAPI". I'll give a try with the 1.2.0.1 version...

Hi 6Fg8

I cant switch on the speaker in v 2.4.0.2. There was no problem in earlier version. Clicking on the speaker, will switch it on for a "flicker", then it turns itself off again.

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Do you have squelch enabled? Disabling it should solve the problem (extras, squelch level = 0). Or if you want to use it, make sure the level you set is >0 and below the rssi for the station.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] illi:
Will test n revert if not solved.

Thank you:)

Edit: reinstalling PR solved the problem.

RSSI incorrect setting

Since I'm using a new Rom (Energy), i've experienced a problem with the RSSI level, which is reported to be 255, because I see the following behavior:

First I set the max. RSSI in the ini-file to 2, then i start PowerRadio, get a normal value, but when i change to a idle frequency (or remove the headset), i get 14 displayed, go back to a radio station, get a value of 1, and after closing PowerRadio, max RSSI is 255.:eek:

Is there at least a way to protect the ini from beeing overwritten?:confused:

About: Xperia X1

Rom: Energy.KOVSKY.23549.Sense2.5_with_Cookie_HomeTab.Mar.20

OS: 5.2.23548 (23548.5.5.0)

Radio: 1.14.25.55
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
OMG what a mess .... seems the API is reporting 255 when there's actually no reception at all. Currently, there's no way to protect maxrssi in powerradio.ini from being overwritten. Maybe i should make this a customizable setting instead of relying on reported API values. I'll give it a thought.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Calatar:
Hey all,

I am having real problems with my TP2 and trying to get a Radio application (any one!!!) to work. I posted here about my problem... and having now tried power radio as well as every other HTC radio cab I can find, none of them seem to work.

All of the HTC Radios come up with "Unexpected Error" and give me no useful information whatsoever to try to work out what is wrong or how to fix it.

PowerRadio comes up with "Failed to open FM radio hardware". I have renamed the file \Windows\FMSDKWrapper.dll to \Windows\FMS_API.dll as instructed.

I have tried doing numerous Google and forum searches to try to find answers to these questions, so sorry for posting in this topic if it is slightly off topic. I have come to the end of my patience with it however and really need some help!

Please anyone?

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
Hi Calatar,

we need more info about your phone. Not it is a TP2. That's not enough. See my signature what we need. Then you can possible expect help from here.

Do you have running the ROM radio. The FM radio original on your phone?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
Hi 6Fg8,

question from my side to you and all users here...

Is here someone interested in a skin based on the original manila outfit?

I mean the colors, buttons and graphics.

SO, yes i will work on it, because i work on many new manila things. Also for co0kies home tab i have tons of ideas. So, please give me some response on my question.

BTW:

6Fg8 you have allways the emulator version for me?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JHimmelbauer:
any news about the HD2 solution? Yesterday I switched from my TP to a brand new HD2 ;-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Calatar:
Hello and thanks mike2nl.

Sorry I didn't post more information - I didn't want to flood a thread with information if you guys were not wanting it here!

At any rate, the information you were after is as follows:

Non-branded HTC TP2 on UK Vodafone (T7373)

ROM: WWE - Jackos S2 ROM WM6.5 21887 + Sense 2.5

ROM Date: 20/03/2010

Radio: 4.49.25.91

HTC Sense: 2.5.20121225.0

WM6.5Pro: Build 2187.5.0.86

Almost exactly the same as yours.

Is there anything else I can give you? Just let me know.

As for your question about a skin based on the original Manila outfit, I think this could look quite good! If I can ever get the radio to work!

Thanks very much agian,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
Hey Mike,

as a generic rule of thumb, new stuff is always appreciated :D

I'll create a emulator version and post a link on the download page soon :)

Servus Sepp, hello @ll waiting for a HD2 solution,

i assume most of you know Power Radio depends on a FM tuner API, which was created by flywhc who spent countless hours bringing it to us and did a really great job. Personally i miss the skills doing such work, so, unfortunately i'm not able to solve the riddle.

If there's an experienced C++ guru out there who could lend a hand, please drop a note here or in flywhc's support thread.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
Hi Calatar,

Create your signature with this information.

This question is still open..

Huuuuh, 3rd party rom, not mine...

If i have a minimum of 2 people i will do the job :).

EDIT:

Ok now we have two people. So i start the job :). 6Fg8 i can't answer so fast. While i answered to Calatar, you have answered me, aaahhh.

Hi

I just updated my HD ROM to Kwbr_Topix_3.6_Sense2.5_21901-WM6.5_18-04-2010 and i'm having a little problem:

I cannot get the "Previous" & "Next" Presets to work, i copied my ini file from one of my last versions and i can see the set stations but doing the double click on the button causes my phone to ring the last number instead of changing the preset station. I tried to reinstall the prohram but no good resullts.

6Fg8- i must be doing something wrong, i would be grateful for any help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 6Fg8:
You need to download and replace the GFMAPI for Eten/Acer here. The one supplied with Power Radio only works for HTC devices.

You need to configure HeadsetButtonHandler. Replacing the ini only preserves settings/presets but doesnt affect buttons.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dagosjt:
Hello,

probably a little bug. I had a lot of problems after a ROM Upgrade. To save all my settings I copied the previous files and reinstalled the cab. This always worked in the past. Not this time.

To be brief, after a lot of reinstallations/soft reset, I discovered the reason:

The currentStation.jpg file was read-only, so when application tried to change it, crashed because it wasn't overwritable... Solution for me was to use Total Commander and change file attribute. After that PowerRadio worked perfectly.

So, could you check currentStation.jpg file attributes for next version so that it isn't read-only?

Thanks :)

Hi,

I assume it’s the right place her to talk about PowerRadio.

It’s a very nice Application with the best GUI I found at the Web.

I have it running at Glofiish x650 orig. Rom 0416. The only point was to find the right GFMAPI.dll (I found at least three versions here). Everything is running very well, except three Points:

1) the Blend on/off Button works the same like Mono/Stereo

2) if the x650 wend to sleep mode, the Radio switches off. At power on again (few times) it goes to sleep mode again immediately. In that case often the process PowerRadio is frozen and can only be released by reset.

3) the time used to load PowerRadio is excessive long, 14 seconds.

The receiver sensitivity is very good. Currently I use a piece of wire at 4-16cm as antenna.

I can’t understand why but it divers enormous from the build in FM_Tuner. The sensitivity of the build in FM-Tuner is not bad but has a different behave.

Generally, the sensitivity (or antenna input) shows some mysterious effects:

PowerRadio, loudspeaker, mono --> sound is very well

Switching to Stereo --> only white noise

Also at both, FM_Tuner and PowerRadio:

If the wired Headphone is plugged in and a medium strong station is chosen, the sound is very good without any noises. Now switching to loudspeaker (without moving any wire or my body) the sound now has more or less white noises. Or in extreme, good reception at Headphone, no reception at Loudspeaker (headphone still plugged in).

Therefore, what really is going on at switching between headphone and loudspeaker?

I’ve had a look at the Chip/ Circuit and can not find any reason. But it may be important to build the right replacement for the headphone-antenna.

Last but not least, you could power up the benefit of PowerRadio if you can find a way to hear FM over a pure Bluetooth Headphone (not A2DP).

Regards,
