[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
That's what Bluetooth, or even better an AUX cable is for. NOT an FM modulator, which are ALL garbage. I say this with authority - haven't had a one that was worth a damn, even an expensive one I bought from Amazon for about $90.

Oh yeah, I don't even have an antenna in my car. Everything on the radio is garbage anyway (opinion warning!)

AUX cable, it's your friend. I can even make/receive calls while it's plugged in; caller audio goes thru the car speakers, and (I'm assuming here) it jacks the gain on the mic so the caller can hear me.

FM, schmefm.

PS: Wasn't this forum up in arms about the RIAA trying to have a bill/rider to force all mobile device manufacturers to include an FM receiver in all products made after the bill goes through?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingkurry:
I see where youre coming from, but most cars do not have an AUX input. Also, not every car or phone support streaming music via bluetooth. FM radio is the only thing that would work on everything.

So seriously, people are willing to donate to any dev that can get this working.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
An FM receiver isn't going to automatically = an FM transmitter.

Oh yeah, with a car head unit, as with everything, if it doesn't have a feature you want (BT streaming, AUX in), buy one that does. You can get a (granted, not the best) head unit from Wal-Mart for about $50 that either has an AUX in, or capability to have one added with much less time than trying to hack FM transmitter drivers into the Vibrant.

edit: Vibrant DOES support BT music streaming.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingkurry:
True but the car may not support bt. and the vibrant's gps chip does have a transmitter as well, and to be honest, its not always simple to swap the head units. Im sure a smart dev can get this working quickly.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fearmonkey:
I dunno, I only get the reboots when I play around with the Si4709 driver. I'm all but certain the si4709 isn't on our phone. If I uncomment the "FM Reset" line in wm8994_aries.c, I can hear the audio switching to the headphones/speaker. Happens even when I rmmod Si4709_driver.

Seems like we need to use the bcm4325/9 chip that is on our phones instead. No idea if we would need to somehow modify the FMRadio.apk to support turning the radio on/off. I've tried off an on looking for the bit of code in CM and the intersectRaven's N1 kernel, but have gotten side tracked. Plus, I'm not a programmer by trade, so it takes me longer ;)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yincrash:
i've been looking at ffc stuff lately, but look what i found in the gt-i9000 SecFeature.dex disassembled, that isn't in the sgh-t959 version.

.field public static final USES_FMRADIO:Z = true

since the field is nonexistent in the vibrant rom (rather than set to false), i imagine that the rest of the fm code isn't even compiled into the framework.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yincrash:
hmm, i was wrong, there are totally a whole bunch of classes in com.samsung.media.fmradio in the rom. maybe i'll look at it later to see why it's no good

Is anyone using TuneIn Radio App? It has practically every station, including HD stations, from every radio station across the country. It's great. I listen to my favorite station on my way to work on my car radio, get out of the car, open the app on my phone and boom, up and running again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sevenvt:
Using your fm tuner I am sure. Fail to read thread.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amorek13:
any updates on this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spambayes:
+1

Any update? Would love to know if FM reception can be enabled on the Vibrant. Net radio isn't an option here and FM is the only way I can get radio.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kronos82:
There are a number of threads on this issue and it all boils down to weather or not the T-moble Vibrant has the same chip set that the Other Galaxy S phones that have the FM Tuner in them. No one has been able to confirm or deny this.

Cyanogen 6.1 Beta 3 for the vibrant did had the FM Tuner Program in it, but it did not do anything, so it looks like if it can be enabled, CM might figure it out or are figuring it out, but they never released any details about it except for including the FM Tuner in the apps which could have just been left over from a stock build there are altering for the vibrant
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no___name:
What is happening on this issue, I can not believe that despite the 3 million

VIBRANTs not anyone can tell as if it has a FM harware or not?

This is the only thing I hate about this PHONE!!!

P.S.

The people from WM have managed to make FM RDS hardware work as TMC, so right know I am able to have TMC working on my Xperia X1 with IGO and still dont know whether Vibrant has FM Radio or not?!

Where are these experts to give us some clarification on this... Hope someone will give as some infos....

Thanks in advance!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
i'm sure if you were to use some deductive reasoning skills, if there isn't any clear "yes" answer nor any implementation of a FM tuner on the vibrant, then it's safe to conclude that it does indeed not work as it's missing some necessary pieces to get it working properly.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no___name:
Thanks for your quick respond, I do understand that, but these missing "pieces" that you are mentioning, I want to know if this is a hardware or software pieces, and if they are concerning hardware then let me know so I can immediately give up searching and googling...

Thanks in advance!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abu-7abash:
They're obviously hardware.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parasharenator:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
Ty and good call on bumping this ^

Lol

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
How can you get updates about a "working progress" when the "feature" is missing core hardware to function.

The vibrant is missing core hardware for the FM module and will NEVER be able to work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parasharenator:
I knew it was a long-shot. Anyways, thanks for the reply.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomaniac10:
This is not correct. The Vibrant has a Silicone Lab chip....see here.

When i install this app, it does detect compatible hardware....however it cannot pickup signal. the hardware is there, its just a matter of getting it to do what we want it to do.

These same things were said about the Nexus One, until a brilliant developer released a kernel with "fm radio support", much to everyones delight....see here.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matbarni:
No updates about it?

Does the hardware really works or is it uncomplete?

I have been trying out SH2 and OP's theme. Everything was looking good, then I got a force close for SH2. And now I can't get out of SH2. I tried reboot, battery pull and still stuck with FC popup.

Anyone got any idea's what I can do?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cybertang:
haven't gotten stuck like that where i couldnt get out of it usually if you have another home replacement u could choose the option or hold down the home key and try to access a application from there
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Dani897:
Try to get into settings. It may be a pain but if you keep trying you may be able to get there.

Goto applications, manage applications, hir the menu button. Filters, show all. Find sweeter home and clear default.

If you can't get into settings at all depending on your level of expertise you may be best off flashing the phone. Unless someone here has a way to fix it remotely like with adb or something
[Captivate Themes and Apps] stepchild:
Thanks for the help and info.

I had to flash it. I couldn't get anywhere. Pop ups just wouldn't let me. I even had to pull battery just to turn it off.

But everything is well now and I have something to do getting it set back up.

Again thanks.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Dani897:

I'm on the XDA app at the moment and can't find the link to sweeter home, should I be doing this on my comp when I get home?

Google sweeter home. Definitely easier from comp. By if you have external apps enabled, should be a breeze once you get to it.

This might be an issue with Sweeterhome2 Beta then the LCARS theme.

I installed this and the theme a few days back and on implementing, all SMS's older then a day were deleted. Hell any older then a few hours were deleted.

Could their be a limitation on the number of sms's held for each person and a limit on the number of days?

Looking for answers.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] cybertang:
is your main theme's sms deleteing? or is it your actual sms application that is deleteing your messages? this is the first time i heard of this bug need little more details to try to figure out but i dont think it would be my theme but i will look into it
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ancient_One:
It's not a problem with the theme, Sweeterhome 2 or the sms (stock) program. It would appear I didn't fully undestand what I was looking at on the screen.

[Q] ZTE Racer recovery mode

I bought ZTE Racer several weeks ago and simply i love it.. But there is very little support for this phone. I have so many questions since i rooted the phone...

For example how can i enter into ZTE Racer recovery mode

How can i make recovery images for this phone.

I also want to install some custom themes and there is absolutely no info on any of this stuff...

Thank you in advance for any kind of answer.. .good or bad i don't care i just want to know if this is possible or I should wait several months ...

I am googling this things and i'm going nuts ... there are no info except that there are still no custom roms for this model... no wonder since this phone is relatively new on the market
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spirit.986:
