Assuming you meant FM radio, i know it requires some serious hardware modification , eventhough the Radio ASIC is capable. As far as I Know the main board is not populated with all the components required for FM radio reception...
is there a radio
Man, I wish no one answered him. It was good fun ...
Here we have someone with a universal asking if there is a radio ... man it cracks me up how far will people go to post. Me ... I just could nto resist ;-)
Hey ya! there is a radio in universal. Place it on the roof of your car and automatically the sound of the first FM station will be routed to the car's speakers.
Strange, but, t.r.u.e
radio version
...and so here are the versions:
Radio version 1.15: SW Radio
Radio version 1.16: AM Radio
Radio version 1.17: FM Radio
Radio version 1.18: FM Radio with RDS

for the first question, i guess you have a lot of answers to that... (just look above). for the second question... you can use a wifi router and connect it to your pc... then use wifi on your pocket pc to connect to the internet
or if you just wanna test... just connect your universal to your pc via activesync then start browsing using your pda...
thnx
thnx everyone for such wonderful answers....i thought this forum is very serious ....just wanted to see if there are humorous people here

C'on don't make fun of him,
Yes buddy u can play radio on ur exec just download any application which supports internet radio (Mumdu radio) but u should have the GPRS activated in ur set.
Enjoy.............
Ok as the heading stated we just need some people to test this radio especially if they have another device with built in Radio.
I Have managed to extract it from a Polaris Rom and compiled it into a cab.
So far it install ok [ Multimedia Folder] When activated it ask for headset to be plugged in [ this is why I believe its has to do with the Headset ] But nothing happens when the kaiser headset is plugged in.

Please provide feedback and help if can.
Thankyou, sir..

Hi,
tested without hands free, got please insert FM antenna.
Inserted the Artemis Hands free Kit. Then nothing, no warning and the App would not lauch. Any ideas?
I can borrow a HF kit for the next 50 mins or so.
Same here dutty.
It asks for headset, but when you plug it in, nothing happens.

I'm wondering if the polaris headset is compatable with the kaisers as this would let us know directly.
I get this message;
"Your wired headset serves as an FM antenna. PLug in the headset and tap Retry to continue."
Would the settngs of the XML file have anything todo with it??
I know very little about such things!!

Does the Kaiser have a radio tuner?
according to the wiring diagram for the Kaiser, there is no radio tuner for FM radio... not sure how this would be possible then...

just a wild stab...anyone tried a bluetooth headset or headphones?
Possible
Have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338238 it discusses the fact the Polaris and Kaiser have the same Chipset which in theory could support FM radio.
Typically, for a phone to work as an FM radio, the wired headset has to be plugged in to act as the antenna. Bluetooth headsets won't work, as there's no cable to receive the radio signal.
Similarly, if the usb port on the phone isn't wired up to the FM radio hardware inside, it's never going to receive a signal either.
I don't think anything's going to come of this, but I commend Dutty for trying.

I will have another run through the registries to see if I can find anything else regarding he radio. Someone told me its the same with some other phone, that the tuner is build it the headset so I feel 85% that this coulld work for the kaiser with the same headset as the polaris

Would it be possible that the Polaris has another chip for FM? I dunno just a wild guess. I want FM too, but it doesn't make sense that it doesn't work. I just let my friend borrow my Tilt (he's going out of town and needed GPS); so I'm unable to test at the moment, but will do when I get it back. Since I got a Tilt it didn't come with a headset, but I have one of those extUSB to female 3.5mm things from eBay that I've been using with my Trinity. We'll see how it goes.

Your absolutely right but the kaiser and polaris is almost the same,
If I told you I flash a polaris rom on my kaiser with just changing some drivers and I flash it without editing it and it booted and worked 100%

Having read the thread the both use the same chipset and no-one can see an extra chip for FM. It's way above my head though. . I imagine you need to get the radio to recognise the antenna and all should work... Dutty...?
Another Possibilty is that its dependant on a specific Rom Radio like before with gps
I need to know which one includes the FM antenna, are these them?
http://www.expansys-usa.com/p.aspx?i=169462
If not, can you link me? I wanna test out this FM radio and see how it goes. Thanks.
Nevermind, found a headset that says it has the FM antenna built in... Wish me luck.

I don't think so, honestly I don't care, I don't have a pair of my own headphones right now. No mp3 player... Which is why I have the Raphael.
HS S300 is coming with the device
Right now I am using a Senheisser with a converter, there is no problem with the musicplayer or fm-radio, everything is working fine
I've had TONS of PM's recently (12 in the 3 days I was in VT) so I wanted to clear some things up and answer a few questions.
1) ROM DUMP... The ROM incognitho posted is the one on my Fuze, same radio and everything. If that doesn't give you 3G, no ROM/radio will.
2) MMS... Your Raphael automatically obtains the same settings as mine for MMS, if it doesn't work, fix it through AT&T.
3) Software/hardware capabilities... The G-sensor calibrator, FM radio and TV out all function completely after the software was installed. Thanks to sub69 and schaps.
Any more questions so my PM box stops overflowing?
Keep negativity elsewhere as I'm already on thin ice, I'll answer anything I can but once the mudslinging starts this thread is gone.
I'm afraid that black may be right on the 3g in the US. If his rom & radio don't give the UK touch pro 3g in the states, I really don't know what else can be done to open it up as that rom/radio do enabe the 3g on his touch pro. I really do hope I'm wrong as I currenly have a UK touch pro in the US but when the fuze comes out I know I will have no problem selling it and I'll just get the Fuze. It's a shame because I think I would like the layout of the UK keyboard better than the Fuze. Only time will tell I guess.
Well, I can't say I know that the hardware is different (nix the keyboard/camera/etc), but I do know my phone works flawlessly on 3G/HSPA with the currently available radio/ROM. I'm sorry to hear people have tried this with no success, as that means many people have wasted a grand for no 3G. :-(

The software wasn't installed, but after sub69 did me the favor of extracting the FM radio files from his Touch Pro and putting them into a CAB, it works perfectly on my Fuze. Same applies to TV-out, software wasn't there, but after installed it works mint.

Are you talking about the AT&T Fuze ROM? If you are, then no that ROM will brick the hell out of your phone if you try it. Stick to the Hermes forum for Hermes ROMs

No, the ROM wont work straight out. It would have to be ported to work on the Hermes. There was one ported for the Kaiser (IBI) but i don't think anything for the Hermes was released.

There was a Cab
to Fix the Yellow Photos
Anyone ?
Can we change background picture in touch pro (not only for home)?
Can we have different backgrounds for each ?
How to do that Please
So thus far there is no FM radio cab on the Touch pro from sprint.
If you are interested in the sprint diamond, there is a fix for that in the diamond forums both here and at ppcgeeks.
If you are interested in a fix for the Fuze:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2692292&postcount=204
from what i under stand that works..

I don't think there is a rom out there yet for the Sprint Touch Pro - it's a CDMA phone so none of the existing roms will work on it (I assume?).
Any luck with this anyone
no luck
Just loaded the cab i found in one of the threads. installed on my sprint touch pro and loaded fine. but would not play. I think they removed the hardware.

Did you have headphones plugged in? On the Fuze I had to install the cab and plug the headphones in before the program would run because it uses the headphones as an antenna.
yeah i plugged them in. it did say i needed to do it before hand but no luck, just shows that little colorful circle waiting icon. I assume it is searching for a signal or something and then will just sit there and nothing works. Maybe that is why the unit is a smidge smaller than the gsm version.
Same thing here, app installs fine but doesn't do anything.
same here but how about the headphones with built in fm radio antenna has anyone tried those and see if it works?

It shouldn't matter. On the Fuze I just plugged in a pair of iPod earbuds and the FM radio worked great.
Don't want to kill the buzz, but my understanding is that Sprint took it a step further than AT&T and neutered the phone to remove the radio chip so there is no software solution...

I don't think so. They took the same exact hardware that AT&T did except that the mold is different (appearance). It is probably only restricted by software. Try installing the cab for the fm radio. It could possibly work.
I installed the cab and it wouldn't work on my sprint touch pro.

I installed the FM Radio App on my Touch Pro and, with the headphones plugged, the app starts, waits for a little bit, and then I get an "Unspecified Error".
Do we know for a fact that the FM circuitry has been removed? Is there a driver that needs to be installed in Windows Mobile? Could the radio be re-enabled via a change in the firmware?

It could be the FM Radio is specific to the GSM versions of the phone. But we need a tech person to prove that.
im curious to see what the answer to this question is. i would like to have fm radio in conjunction to my sirius subscription

I wouldn't say that. Along with changing from GSM to CDMA cellular radios they could have changed virtually anything. At this point there is no telling wether the hardware is present or not. I'd love an FM radio on my Sprint Pro, but I'm not too optimistic.
I wanted the radio, too. But as a pratical matter, I doubt it would have worked too well unless you were right on top of the station. I find I can listen to most of the radio I want using Kinoma's media guide. It's wonderful. I'm still hoping someone discovers a way to activate the radio. How ignorant of Sprint to disable it.....
Why is it always SOMETHING with every Sprint phone? Why do they always have to disable something? What good does it do them to disable the FM radio?

Well thats a no brainer there bud...if we all had the FM Radio working thanks to this new HTC Product..then Sprint would get there ass kicked in regards to their sprint store with the music downloads and all... It takes from their profitasbility for us to have the Built in FM Radio functioning.
